Pin Dmd Not Found Error

Since I upgraded my .dll and Pinmame (2.6) I was getting this error. It seems Use DMD is checked for everything in my settings. I tried the registry fix, and going in through setup. Isn't there a way to do this at a global level, instead of each individual table?

 

Edit: Nevermind... I found the "replace all".

Assuming you do not have real PINDMD hardware

 

click on Windows button and type in regedit

navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Freeware\Visual PinMame

Right click on the "Visual Pinmame" and select export

Export it to VP.reg

Close the windows registry

 

Make a copy of VP.reg so you have a backup, in case you mess something up

Open the VP.reg with notepad

Now search and replace all instance of      "showpindmd"=dword:00000001 with "showpindmd"=dword:00000000

Save the reg file

Now double click reg file and say Yes to import the file

Thanks.  I ended up backing up the reg file / branch and deleting all of the games except for defaults and global.  Worked like a charm.  Now they all pickup the default settings and re-seed themselves.  I had originally searched for "pindmd not found" so I didn't see this show up until I searched for "dmd not found" since there was a space between "pin" and "dmd".

 

Anyway, this issue had me puzzled for a couple of days.  Silly of me to think default settings meant default settings!

 

Appreciate the details.

 

Thanks,

Dave
