db10145216 Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Not sure if it is just me, but Freezy or Github pulled the Beta Version from the site. I can no longer find the zip or installer for the Beta Version. 1.8 is still the latest version, but beta is no longer there. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither, it was the CI (AppVeyor) that reduced the life time of the build artifacts from six months to one. But as Terry said, it's released and you grab it from GitHub now.

ktmspark Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 (edited) Hi , I have setup everything up and freezy works fine on the relevant FP tables no problem, I noticed at the start of this thread it was mentioned that Freezy could be disabled for certain pinevent tables "can be used only when you want to use it, not just forced to autorun on all tables (this is handy if you don't want to use this while playing PinEvent tables" I cannot seem to locate the info on how this is acheived. ( for example i can see freezy running under the pinevent halloween dmd which it does not need to be any guidance on this minor issue would be appreciated TIA Edited August 6, 2021 by ktmspark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsaylor Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Freezy is working well for me, but is it possible to show it "on top" of the FP window, basically overlaying it? I've got the unusual setup of a single screen portrait mode screen, so I've configured the playfield to fill my entire screen, and I'm trying to add the DMD somewhere (probably one side of the apron area). Freezy works but the "--virtual-stay-on-top" option does not make it display "over" the playfield. As long as FP has focus, it just hides the DMD. Is what I'm trying to do even possible? And if that won't work, I've also been trying to edit the tables to "move" the DMD from the backglass to the playfield by recreating it. This works, but there doesn't seem to be any way to resize it to fit it within the apron. Is there a way to size a DMD within the playfield area?

Content Provider TerryRed Posted August 15, 2021 Author Content Provider Share Posted August 15, 2021 No, you can't resize the FP DMD on the playfield. No you can't have DMDext appear "on top" of the FP app when its running in Fullscreen. You don't want to run FP in Windowed or forced Borderless Windowed as it won't run very well on more demanding tables. Both FP and VPX weren't really designed to have a separate DMD window displayed on the playfield screen in cabinet mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DtM2000 Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Hi, how can you find out which version you have installed please? I've ended up here trying to fix a flickering DMD and one suggestion was to update to the latest Freezy. I used Nailbuster's Baller installer and wanted to understand which version I had installed before I started messing around and potentially cocking things up. Thanks in advance, DtM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgeist28 Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 Hi Terry hoping you can help me here. Forgive me if I'm missing something obvious, but I've gone through your instructions multiple times, but for some reason I cannot get the DMD position and size settings to save for FP tables. Even though I clearly see the position and dimensions being saved in Dmddevice.ini. Visual Pinball X and FX3 both are working perfectly. I've attached both DmdDevice.ini and my FP launch script from Pinup Popper for reference. If you have a chance, can you please review and let me know if you can identify where I might be going wrong?

Content Provider TerryRed Posted March 6, 2022 Author Content Provider Share Posted March 6, 2022 I don't have a chance.... as I am still recovering from a stroke, and haven't been on my cabinet for many months, and haven't been able to test any new updates for DMDext, which is why my time is focused on my other projects that I can do. I'm sure others who have been able to get it working can chime in with what they needed to do. Be sure to get the latest update... as there have been a few since 1.9 was released.
