Precise Posted March 26, 2023 Posted March 26, 2023 Hello All, So I've moved on from Pup Packs because I have all the ones that are available at the moment. I've moved on to the FullDMD backglasses. Most of the backglasses I have work just fine, however the ones that have the graphical DMDs won't show any information, just a black screen inside the art. It feels like some kind of setting I'm missing. The first photo is for a working backglass and the second photo shows the empty DMD. If anyone has an idea what might be wrong with my system please help. I can't find any other consistency beyond what is stated above.
Precise Posted March 28, 2023 Author Posted March 28, 2023 Hello All, So I found a solution. Not sure if this is optimal but it works. Apparently FlexDMD takes over control of the DMD screen (something I forgot considering how new I am at this). The LCD score tables (like the Elvira table pictured above) can show the LCD score right from the rom. For those tables I have external DMD turned off. The more graphically enhanced DMDs like the Star Wars Trilogy, Lord of the Rings and TOTAN tables require that you leave the external DMD on. You simple move the external DMD into the space on the DMD artwork to your liking and BOOM! You're done. It will take some adjusting to finally get the external DMD positioned perfectly in the DMD art but you'll get the hang of it. Hope this helps someone else in the future. Peace Precise
Precise Posted April 20, 2023 Author Posted April 20, 2023 Peace, Glad if it helps. I'm learning a ton really quickly but I'm still a newb.
PhartusMcBlumpkin Posted May 12, 2024 Posted May 12, 2024 Thanks for this. Just converted to 3 screens on my ALP and have the same issue. Fixed.
luckyarmpit Posted May 22, 2024 Posted May 22, 2024 Me too sort of. Using alp for my cab. Had a lot of tables with dual dmds on back glass. Found that if ya hit F1, uncheck external dmd, save and restart table, the external dmd goes away and you get your scoring etc. the way a real table shows the info. Exactly what I was looking for!! The tables that actually use a dmd, still fooling around to get the dmd to fill the grill on each individual table. Frustrating and exciting at the same time!!
Precise Posted May 22, 2024 Author Posted May 22, 2024 Peace, Just over a year ago and it feels like a lifetime. I've learned so much about this hobby. Soooooooo much more to learn. Just upgraded my ALP to a 2K screen with the big refresh rate. Still working out the kinks, which is half the fun.
