Stranger Things VPX 2.0- TC Deez (New DMD Scenes + FullDMD option with animated B2S & Topper)


Get ready for Season 4 of Stranger things with an update to the great VPX table from @scottywic! Huge shoutout to Scotty Wic for his fantastic STLE table and puppack and for giving me the permission to make this quick fun project.

Also, big shoutout to the testers: @hawkeyez88, @picasso85, and @nanuk for their informed feedback, time, and effort!

 

What is this?

New DMD Scenes for ultra dmd built on the Stranger Things VPX table to compliment the great work that went into this original. There are no new modes or cosmetic changes to the table, no need to ruin a fantastic table like this! 

In addition to DMD, if you prefer the active backglass as your full DMD and like the look of an animated B2S, there are new options in script for this as well!

Lastly, I have created a simple interactive topper, similar to the Stern Topper, that can be turned on in script as well.

 

What is needed:

- Download the zip here.

Move the bgs folder to existing STLE pup pack
Move the topper folder to the existing STLE pup pack
Merge the STLE.UltraDMD folder with the same in the VPX Tables folder.
Download the STLE VPX 2.0-TCDeez  table to your VPX Tables folder.

 

Choose your layout:

  • (By default, this is set to topper ON, UltraDMD on, Active Backglass on Screen 2)

Search in table Script: TC Deez
By searching TC Deez, you will see each of the few lines that need to be adjusted for your set-up due to Orbital Active backglass use of screens. 

All options are commented out for which features need to be turned off or on for your set-up.

 

Options are:
Topper (on/off)
Ultra DMD (on/off)
Moving Active Backglass to Full DMD ( make it screen 5 in script)
Enable B2S BG (on/off), requires moving of Active backglass to full dmd. Ensure you are changing the Screen numbers appropriately for fulldmd (5)  & pBackglassB2s (2) if you choose to go that route, and that turnonultradmd= 0
 

Hope everyone enjoys this small passion project and is as excited for Season 4 to release next week as I am!

 

TC Deez

Someone managed to show the full-dmd on Desktop? How?

Not me, Tiki. I've never been able to get the fulldmd to work. I get this error when it tries to load;

Line: 1961
Variable is undefined: 'pBackglassB2S'

which is this in the script;

PuPlayer.Init pBackglass,"STLE"
    If useB2SBG = 1 Then
        PuPlayer.Init pBackglassB2S,"STLE"

Not with desktop. Work in cabinet. But in theory maybe can work in desktop popper?

 

modify the script. Somewhere around line 1500. Search for “pbackglass” and change the screen number from 2 to 5. Then it should work. It is not done with puppack editor. But directly in the script. 
 

Will be more specific when I go home and get you a screen shot

I wish everyone a happy new year!

I need a little help.

 

Device:  VPX 10.7 / table mode on laptop (one display)

 

So.. I downloaded this table (zip). I copied the STLE.UltraDMD folder to the TABLES folder from zip, along with the Stranger Things - SE 2.0 TC Deez.vpx file.

After starting the table, the pinball machine works properly. I can play well, the colorful DMD appears, the playfield sounds are heard.

But... there is no way I can adjust the volume of the background music. I'd like to turn up the volume (or turn on the background music)

because I can't hear any of that right now.

 

What could be the problem? Please help me!

Sorry if I missed something... I recently started to get acquainted with visual pinball.

Thank you very much!

I am having the same exact problem.  Was really hoping for a solution, did you find one? thanks!

Managed to solve it via VP NATION, so Copy pinuplayer.ini from vpinball/PinUPSystem directory and paste it into Strangerthings4  puppack directory, open ini file and search for ScreenRotation=270 and set all to zero , save ini and leave it in puppack directory
