Title says it all - Show of Hands - who actually has successfully got colored roms working in VR in VPX 10.8.1 BGFX 

 

been trying for 1 week to get colored roms, .vni and serum to work in VR in VPX 10.8.1 BGFX 

 

tried everything, new folder structure, paths, vpinball.ini etc. 

 

What BGFX build are you using?

 

show me your vpinball.ini, show me your ingame settings for the path field of serum, .vni, pinmame

 

did you get it working on a clean install? did you get it working next to an existing install of vpx 10.8?

 

if you have the new folder structure in your 10.8.1 folder, does the table actually save a cfg file and nvram file to the new folder structure or is it still saving in the original vpinmame folders for those?

 

did you have to delete stuff from windows registry to get it working?

 

 

 

Why is this so complicated? Who's in charge? LOL

Hey there,

same problem here, so you're not alone.

 

Setup: VPinballX_BGFX 10.8.1-5897 (Windows x64), Meta Quest 3 via Link cable

 

What works: on the desktop I get colored DMDs (PIN2DMD .pal/.vni files in the altcolor folder) and the PinUP Player pack. That comes from the old path through DmdDevice64.dll (DMDext window) and the PinUP Player window.

 

What doesn't work: in VR I only get the small, uncolored default DMD and an empty backglass. The DMDext window and the PUP pack only show up on the monitor, not in the headset. As far as I can tell the VR view only shows what VPX itself renders, so the colorization would have to come from the plugins.

I tried the plugins from the in-game menu (Serum, VNI, DMDUtil, PinMAME, Pin Up Player).

 

When I enable the Serum plugin I get "Entry Point Not Found: Serum_SetLogCallback" for plugin-serum64.dll, and a similar error for the dmdutil DLLs. The DLLs in the plugins folder all have the same date as the build.

Has anyone gotten colored DMDs (.vni or Serum) and PUP into the headset with this build?

little update...

 

i Did a baller installer install on a different pc i have as a test, and bgfx all worked fine.

 

enabling scoreview was fine, than enabling both serum and vni worked on every table i tried and would display color in the scoreview dmd no problem

 

so, not sure why it doesnt work on my pincab?

 

i even went to the extreme to do a fresh install dual boot with win 10 (which was the win version the good test worked on) on my pincab and it still didnt work?

 

so not sure if its the way my hardware is setup on the pincab?
