[FREE TOOL] Pincab Toolbox — scan your VPX/Popper install and find what's broken (missing ROMs, 64-bit mismatches, backglasses…) Hi everyone, Like many of you, I've spent more evenings fixing my cab than playing it. A table crashing with a cryptic VPinMAME error, a DMD that died after moving to 64-bit, a backglass that stopped showing… and every time, an hour of digging through folders to find the cause. So I built the tool I wished existed: Pincab Toolbox, a free scanner that diagnoses your install in seconds (a bit longer on a large collection). What it checks: Missing ROMs — reads every table script (cGameName), resolves VPMAlias.txt, and names the exact missing .zip in VPinMAME\roms. Original/EM tables are recognized, so it doesn't flag them. Extracted ROMs — a ROM unzipped into a folder won't be loaded by VPinMAME; it flags that. 32/64-bit mismatches — THE trap of the VPX 10.8 transition: it inventories the bitness of every exe/DLL (VPinMAME, dmddevice, B2S, FlexDMD) and flags broken hybrid installs. Windows-blocked DLLs — a file extracted from a downloaded ZIP can be quarantined ("Mark of the Web") and fail to load; it detects that. Missing dependencies — B2S Backglass Server or FlexDMD required by your tables but absent. Backglass & Popper — missing .directb2s files, tables not registered in the PinUP Popper database, PUP-Pack presence. Compatibility — nFozzy/Roth physics signatures and minimum VPX versions declared in scripts. Outdated tables (beta) — checks against the open-source Virtual Pinball Spreadsheet database and links to the official page only. Script Diff — compare two versions of a table side by side before overwriting yours. Ground rules I committed to (because this community rightly cares): 100% local — nothing is uploaded, zero telemetry, no account. Read-only — the scanner NEVER modifies a file, a registry key or a database. Never downloads content — no tables, no ROMs, no media, ever. This is a diagnostic tool, not a downloader. The community sites remain THE source. Screenshot: [insert scan screenshot] Download: https://pincab-toolbox.vercel.app/ (Unsigned exe for now → the usual SmartScreen warning: "More info" → "Run anyway". Code signing lands in the next release.) There's a built-in demo mode if you want to see it in action before pointing it at your real setup. It's a v0.1 and I'm looking for blunt feedback — false positives, exotic tables, confusing messages. I fix fast. If it proves useful, a version that repairs some of what the scanner finds is in the works — always with a backup first, a preview of what will change, and undo. The scanner itself stays free and read-only, forever. Thanks, and happy flipping! Flipsync V

I found this today! 45" 21:9 OLED 1440p 240hz! This one might slip perfectly into a standard sized cab! You can bend it to whatever curvature you like! Including totally flat! The only flat 45" 21:9 gaming monitor that i know of! What do you guys think? https://www.corsair.com/us/en/xeneon-flex-bendable-ultra-wide-gaming-display
