The pup pack just opens to the bg intro and stays there- no triggering any other videos. It does work with freezy though. puplog attached if it helps PUPLOG.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Content Provider lucky1 Posted June 24, 2022 Author Content Provider Share Posted June 24, 2022 7 hours ago, mellkul said: ya same still not triggering o.k. The problem is that PUP does not use the original 192x64 frame as triggers but a 128x32 scaledDown version of it which is weird. I think that those resolutions were not taken into consideration when creating PUPPlayer and using them for those Sega tables is a kind of a hack. Freezy uses a .net scaler which is afaik not available in c++ and therefore I can´t reproduce the scaling 100%. As I already said I´m currently working on a colorizing plugin for freezy which will fix this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliffy Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 @lucky1 Funny thing but your dmddevice.dll 1.10.3.4 for 6/23 (32 bit) is now working with Batman Forever and triggering the pup videos! YAY! So what changed? (since your dll hasn't) It must be either the newest version of vpx I'm using VPinballX-10.7.1-215-4b91041-Release-win-x86 or the Visual-C-Runtimes-All-in-One-Jul-2022 that I updated yesterday. https://www.techpowerup.com/download/visual-c-redistributable-runtime-package-all-in-one/ I've tried a bunch of games and so far all good! One note, if you get missing rom or BASS errors fully close VPX and then load the table from scratch. Try it out @mellkul and see if it now works for you as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went back to the previous version and nope, no triggering. I had lightning in a bottle for a moment and should have left it alone.

Pegula Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Hi, Awhile ago during one of the updates my Fire! pup pack stopped working, somebody recently told me it had to do with the dmdext.dll update. Can somebody confirm if it's working with the latest version? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure one could create a batch file to rename one to the other but I manually do it myself. I keep both in the vpinmame folder but I change the extension to whomever's name it is and the other left as .dll. Example; dmddevice.lucky1 and change dmddevice.freezy to dmddevice.dll for games like Fire! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denys06 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) Hello, I am having difficulty. I can't get the color DMDs from these links to work: Yet I manage very well to make this one work in .pac version: Can you tell me the difference in use between the first 2 and the second because I did copy the files to the right folders. I don't understand what differs between these DMDs, is it a configuration problem in the tables? Thank you in advance because I can't find since 3 hours of research and configuration ISSUE RESOLVED : I had to enable table color mode after pressing F1 I had forgotten this damn option after 8 months of stopping my Pincab 🤯 Edited July 8, 2022 by Denys06 solved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denys06 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 My problem is not solved, I just noticed that I now have 2 types of DMD displayed one above the other: I can't figure out why the colorless DMD still appears on my system. I also put the DMD setting when I press F1. Can you help me to solve it, I have been working on this problem for 4 hours. Thx Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx Thanks in advance Is this the data east tmnt or the stern tmnt mod of data east table? The mono display maybe your b2s dmd that is on top of everything. right click the b2s backglass and choose to hide the dmd Edited July 8, 2022 by hcj13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffy Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 sometimes you can open the table in the editor, click on Toggle Backglass View button and then you can drag the built in dmd up off the screen just outside the border box. If it doesn't move you need to go up to the menu bar and select Edit- Lock and click to remove the checkmark and then it will be moveable. Other times it will be in the vpx script like Use VPMDMD = true which you can change to False Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
