FrankRT Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 It's been a while, I know. Anyway, I wanted to ask if there was a version of Freezy's dll or some alternative thereof that supports the new 64-colour format? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thalamus Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Not yet. Has been discussed before. Currently Freezy is too busy with VPE, so, I'm not holding my breath. I've tried to nudge @DJRobX a few times. This is a hobby, if he doesn't bite, well, then we're going home empty handed from that fishing trip. Just be patient is my recommendation.

Content Provider Terranigma Posted August 20, 2021 Content Provider Share Posted August 20, 2021 For anyone wondering about freezys project. I have spoken to both freezy and DJRobX recently and they are both very well aware of the situation, as well as the impact this is having to the users. There is no need to create further posts or to tag either of them at this point. Let's all be patient on this one, thanks. @FrankRT in regards to your question about an alternative that supports the new 64 colour format. Due to the way the code is handled and access to this code, it is unlikely there will be an official alternative. I believe lucky could create an extension of his Pin2dmd project, but that will take time and it will also depend on if it is worth it for him.

krel01 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 (edited) Is Luckys dmddevice.dll in the new version 4.20 working with real DMD? If I replace the dmddevice.dll from Freezy (12 MB) with the new one from Lucky (99KB) in folder vpinmame my real DMD stays black. I previously updated my DMD firmware to 4.24.

Content Provider lucky1 Posted October 23, 2021 Content Provider Share Posted October 23, 2021 Which USB driver is installed for your device ? libusb-32 or winusb ? If you use the old libusb32 you need to install libusbk.dll in the same folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use the old libusb32 you need to install libusbk.dll in the same folder Hi Lucky1, many thanks for your hint! I used the ZADIG Tool to install a USB driver (WinUSB) and the DMD now works fine with your small dmddevice.dll and also with 64 Colored Roms (Creature from the black lagoon). Looks amazing! I am running a PIN2DMD EVO128x32 board. Is there a preferred usb driver? The WinUSB driver sounded ok for me and it works fine. Again many thanks for your help!

Content Provider lucky1 Posted October 23, 2021 Content Provider Share Posted October 23, 2021 https://pin2dmd.com/installation/#2 If you want to use the libusb32 driver you also need to copy the libusbk.dll to your folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
