Help needed with Pin2DMD Colorization

[Shicam2012]

Hello everybody,

 

I am still a new and inexperienced user of the Visual Pinball and all of it add-ons, so I will ask for some help.

 

I try to add colorization to my DMD, but have some trouble getting it's done. I followed tutorial By RajoJoey, installed and copied all from the lists, downloaded pac file (Dracula for example), put it in the altcolor/drac_l1 folder but when I start the table and make settings to colorize and use external dmd, the display shows only those colors on the right of the option screen. I don't have the colors as displayed in the topic from where I downloaded the pac file. I tried also with other tables and it is the same problem. If I manually change the color its working fine, but I don’t think it should be done manually, right?

Anyway, I attached he screenshots of my VPinMAME folder, DmdDevice.ini, DmdExt.ini and the screenshot of the table, maybe you can tell me where I made the mistakes.

Thanks in advance!

Having the exact same problem. I have followed numerous sets of instruction. I only get the 4 colors in the options screen ... not colorization like in the examples from the color files.

No need to use this file Freezy is not looking for it (DmdExt.ini). What information you have in there needs to go in this file DmdDevice.ini)  and then delete this one (DmdExt.ini)
