alucardsonofdracul Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Hi y'all! So i'm new to this Virtual Pinball stuff and i'm trying to use these excellent coloured DMDs but i don't know how ot make them work. It's a .pac file and did that of making an "altcolor" folder and then anotherone with the name of the rom the table uses and then put the .pac file inside. But doesn't work. I read a guide wich uses Flexdmd, Freezy extension, and whatnot but maybe that's an outdated guide and newer installations of Visual Pinball have everything ready to use these DMD but i'm lost. If there's a new guide please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tikimaster Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 (edited) Standard Questions: When you press f1 on your table, did you check "use external dll"? Did you check "colorize DMD (4 colors)? Your *.pac-file path is VpinMame/altcolor/exactnameoftherom? This should help: Edited December 6, 2022 by Retsamikit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanLShane Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 PAC files don't currently work with Freezy. You need to install Lucky1's DLL files that support the PAC format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a dmddevice.ini that you tailored to your games back it up or when extractiing the downloaded zip just do not extract the dmddevice.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanlon Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 I am having this issue as well. I had everything working with vpinmame 3.2 with the .pal and .vni files. I upgrade to vpinmame 3.5, unistall old and install Freezy 1.10.2 using the .msi, copy my backup my .ini file, check .pal and .vni they don't work. Copy over Lucky1 still nothing with the .pac. Checkboxes are checked and files are in the right folders Edit: So I went to downgrade to 3.4 and when I uninstalled 3.5 it said do you want to uninstall 3.3? Curious as I have never had 3.3 on my system. Installed 3.4, ran a repair install on Freezy, copied over Lucky1 and Money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
