Hi, I tested with my VPX games, unfortunately .fsq files (Baywatch, Creature FTBL) colors are broken.
The last version that was ok for me was the 2.1.3-snapshot.

Freezys can't do pal/fsq in vpin. Only Lukcy1.

[Dicentim]

So I suppose I have to keep my old version. Works great with 2.1.3-snapshot 32 bits.
I tested a few games on your list (edited my previous post) : all is ok (except fsq of course).

yeah unless you have pal/vni or pac versions of same. The lates Freezy is 2.2.1-SNAPSHOT-r12 so 2.1.3 was a ways back

[Dicentim]

Just for my information please, do Baywatch / Dr Who exist in other format than .fsq ?
I found a pal/vni version of CFTBL but it's way less colorfull than .fsq version.

 

EDIT : Found them : Baywatch is OK, Dr Who is OK (pal/vni version).

I have a drwho PAC file. Played a game with multiple scenes and looks fine. Dome glitches, but could be in the original version as well

 

Street Fighter II : OK

Dr Who (pac) : Ok
Cactus Canyon : OK

Cactus Canyon :Continued (p-roc) OK (although through dmdext.exe some issues, but will report that on github)

Godzilla : OK

Diner : Colors OK, but still slow showing Scenes (real DMD)

As Mike said, colorized alphanum ROMs still display with delay on ZeDMD (and PinDMDv3 it seems).

World Cup Soccer "VNI/PAL"

VPX, Missing colors, lots of issues

Pinball FX- Seems to be ok. 

Wait, so for PinballFX it works fine, but not in VPX?

We agree that FSQ is for real pins only and not supposed to work with dmdext, right? And it never did? By "dmdext" I mean my original project and not lucky1's fork.

 

Thanks for the testing, I appreciate it. It's a little hard however to follow up on each comment. Would it be possible for you guys to create a GitHub issue per game that has problems? Ideally, include a log so I'm sure which dmdext version was used, and a download link to the colorization so that I can reproduce. Thanks again!

I believe this is normal. It hasn't been coloured beyond attract at this stage.

 

Edit: Sorry, I see you said it worked ok with R11.

I added it this mor ing to the github issue I already opened. 

 

I will do some other checks as well, as I noticed issue(s) with FX as well. I willcreate a seperate issue on github for those

 

[embryodead]

so here is my 2.2.1 r12 personal report

TMNT still crash on me after some time. Can be 30 sec or ten minutes but never happened when i uncheck colorize.

As noted world cup soccerhas some glitches

checkpoint is the same as before with a lot of  red only colored screens

Monstert bash, medieval madness and many other bally williams games are now perfect(like dracula).

Street fighter 2 wich was problematic is good now.

Hi lucky, I just did those files and they seemed to solve my problem with Diner and Bugs Bunny color dmds, I was afraid it was going to mess up my other dmds but it seems like it didn’t mess anything up.

there is zero lag on those 2 dmds now.

Thank you.

It is simple. Once you have it where you want just right click on it and a mini menu will pop up to save globally or just for this game
