uptown47 Posted August 10, 2024 Posted August 10, 2024 Hi all I'm new to VPX so please bear with me - I'm trying to get Metallica Premium Monsters to work with the pup pack on a desktop set up (single screen). When the table boots I have two DMDs - a green "built in" one and another one - so my first question is - Is this normal? I presume most people just drag the second one over the first one to hide it?? I've checked the script in case there was "Built in DMD on/off" selection but there isn't - so would be good to understand what's happening here better and what most people do in this situation? The second issue (and the major problem I'm having) is that - after a few seconds I get this big video that overlays across the top of the screen ?? I'm at a loss on how to get rid of it? Or where it's supposed to go ?? Any help would be amazing - many thanks.

Save. If the dmd has a gray border then you need to unlock it. Just right click- lock to toggle.
uptown47 Posted August 10, 2024 Author Posted August 10, 2024 @Cliffy and @Tikimaster thank you so much for the excellent help! (and the really informative tutorial that you linked). I've learnt a LOT about the software just in this one short thread but I really appreciate you taking the time out to show me how to accomplish it. Guess what I'll be playing tonight! Thanks again

Thanks again Happy to help. This pup has no specific desktop option bat so turning those 3 screens to off is the only way to make it useable on a single screen

Would love to build a proper pincab but the Leader of the Opposition won't have it unfortunately
