THANKS:
JP Salas allowed me to use his Attack From Mars table as a base and provided advice during the creation.
@KRAKEN provided the original Attack From Mars Serum colorization, which was an immense help and saved me countless hours of dumping, masking and assigning frames. He also fixed many bugs in the video mode I would have never figured out on my own.
@apophis invited me to the VPW Discord and kindly let us use his asteroid for the VR room.
@DGrimmReaper created an awesome VR room, just looks so insanely good.
@cyberpez let me use key assets of his AFM table, which made the table so so much better.
@Thalamus supportive on VPU since day one and connected me to the VPW team.
@r2z2 and RomKnight provided insight on using Claude for VPX code optimization.
@hauntfreaks 's backglass was a template for the modded b2s.

=============================================================
Needs the following software installed:
- Visual Pinball X 10.8 or higher
- VPinMAME 3.6 or higher
- DMDext 2.5.0 (with latest Serum version)
1. Place Mass Effect.vpx and .b2s in Tables folder.
2. Download the ROM afm_113b and place it in VPinMAME/roms directory.
3. Place altcolor/afm_113b_me in your VPinMAME/altcolor directory.
4. Start up the table. On first launch it configures itself via two dialogs:
- ROM alias: press "Yes" (registers "afm_113b_me,afm_113b" in your VPinMAME alias file).
- DMD settings: answer whether you have a RealDMD — "Yes" installs the SD
configuration (native resolution, right for RealDMD hardware), "No" installs
the HD configuration (upscaled, right for LCD / virtual DMD windows).
Written into DmdDevice.ini as an [afm_113b_me] section with values: colorize = true / scaletohd = true / scalermode = doubler / style.default.brightness = 0.70; settings of other
tables are not touched.
5. Press F1 and check both "Use external DMD (dll)" and "Colorize DMD (4 colors)".
Select "OK" to save.
