BlackPredator72 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I already thought that the colors were not right when I started some games, but because I'm new to PIN2DMD (I switched from PINDMD3) and still don't know how everything works: did I used the wrong roms ? (I've downloaded some colored roms but didn't tried them yet) do I have to use the altcolor files too (in some subfolders from the altcolor folder I see a pin2dmd.pal but also ._pin2dmd.pal) and does the game use them automatically? do I have to change the colors myself on each table (do I put a tick at Colorize DMD (4 colors)?, I found a topic with the correct color settings like R254, G64, B1 etc. but are they necessary with colored roms and/or altcolor .pal files? So I've upgraded to firmware 2.60 and started to look more into PIN2DMD I did see the colors from pin2dmd.exe are in a wrong order... This is the result from the palette: palette 0 - VGA palette 1 - Red palette 2 - should be Green ---> but is Blue palette 3 - Blue ---> Green palette 4 - Violet ---> Yellow palette 5 - Cyan palette 6 - Yellow ---> Violet/Purple/Dark Pink palette 7 - White ---> White palette 8 - Orange ---> Pink/Red-ish As you can see in the attached picture you see the wrong colors and a missing pixel in the right corner, but I bought the PIN2DMD from GGS and it took about 5 months to receive the board, so when I looked in the corner and saw there is a pixel missing I took that for granted. So the main question is...can I change something in the settings so that the right colors appear when I click for example on palette 2 so I get Green instead of Blue? .... and also for the other colors?

Content Provider lucky1 Posted December 10, 2018 Content Provider Share Posted December 10, 2018 Enter the onscreen menu (hold menu button during boot) and set the RGB Sequence accordingly. Save settings Done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redmask1974 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Hi, I've got exactly the same problem ( on pincab passion forum they told me to switch pin 2 with 3 and 6 with 7 but the result is worst. So i wouls like to try to solve the problem by the menu but i can't access. I've tried :several solution : 1- hold the two button : PIN2DMD screen start flickering ans flashing weirdly. 2- Hold first button : As it's hold the black remain black and when a release the pin2dmd boot normally but no access to menu 2- Hold second button : Nothing happen -(. I use 2.6 colorprims version. My pin2dmd is both connected with the micro and mini USB. I'am doing something wrong ??? Tks for your help ??

Content Provider lucky1 Posted January 22, 2019 Content Provider Share Posted January 22, 2019 I think you are referring to the buttons on the discovery board. To access the menu you need to use the buttons on the shield. If you don´t use a shield you need to swap cables like yuo have been told in the pcp forum. Please understand that I can´t give support for flying wire installations because from the technical side it is not really reliable and high frequencies can have many unpredictable side effects.
