Well after a couple hours of tinkering I think we're in Buisness.. or at least circus Voltaire does and that's a start lol thanks for the help and advice everyone especially@rablack97 I appreciate the time you gave to sort that all out Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It may be because I have the backglass image inside the media file of pinballx? B2s settings that was located in the tables file has been changed to match the settings in pinballx and still the dmd is outstretched Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

When I launch in vpx I get the table on my play field and I get the dmd on my second screen in the right spot and right dimensions no backglass. And when I launch the table using pinballx the dmd goes weird but the backglass stays and looks good Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

These are the settings in pinballx... I'm not sure how to alter them in vpx.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The first pic shows me launching just using vpx the second pic is when I launch with pinballx... it keeps the same backglass as I had in attract mode but the dmd gets messed up Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I posted a couple a couple posts back. Same cirque table and it's a vpx.. table and dmd load perfect when I launch using vpx. But when I launch using the pinballx front end the dmd gets very distorted Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think the issue I'm having right now maybe be a layering issue between windows... maybe there is a way to have the pinmame dmd stay above the pinballx backglass window?.. any thoughts? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I resized the dmd and backglass and it looks a lot better then it was.. definitely in attract mode.. however in doing so I've run into another dmd issue this time when I actually launch the game using pinballx.. I tagged you in my post maybe you might know what's up with it... seems that if I launch the table without using the front end the dmd shows up sharp and where it's suppose to be.. but if I launch the table using pinballx the dmd becomes very distorted as if it's not sized properly.. forgive me I'm super new to this and trying to sort everything out but it seems to be a 2 steps forward 1 step backwards type of day lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I got one more for you guys... When I run the table outside of pinballx I am able to set up the dmd on my screen set up nice... However when I launch the game using pinballx this is what I get for a dmd.. very bad resolution... anyone got a answer for this one? ps sorry for mess lol cab is being painted @rablack97 @Carny_Priest Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Kinda feel like bashing my head off the wall lol but that works.. squishes up the image a bit but the effect is achieved.. still would be nice to have the option to choose to display the dmd or not on specific tables but that would just be nit picking.. thanks for the help my friend hopefully my noobish issues have subsided for now lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I appreciate the effort for sure.. I don't know how to tag people in the post on my phone but maybe this could be brought up to Tom as a tweak in a future update? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here's a good example.. the circus Voltaire backglass is just a png and it had simulated speakers and a dmd spot drawn onto the image.. the way I have the dmd located and the size of it gives a good effect in this example.. this is the reason why I would like to keep the dmd on some of my tables Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mine looks like this the second screen isn't mounted in this picture but it is located above the play field.. I am using the one screen for 2 purposes the backglass and the dmd.. the dmd dimensions are for the bottom 1/4 of the screen and the backglass dimensions are for the whole screen.. when i scroll through my game in the pinballx front end the dmd will work properly.. I'm just wondering if there is a way where I can remove the dmd just for specific tables.. such as the fx2 tables because it just doesn't look or mesh well maybe Tom has a solution? If you see this post?.. maybe it's just not possible as of right now the only way to remove the dmd is to disable it in the pinballx settings and that turns it off for all tables Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Still gives me the black dmd box like the last picture I uploaded Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Does anybody know if the hide dmd box in game manager is strictly for gameplay? Or does it in fact even hide the dmd when browsing through the front end? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

When I do that I'm just left with a blank box if I remove the no dmd image from the image folder and the no dmd videos from the video folder Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If I remove the png from the dmd image folder I get the standard pinballx no dmd video.. and that's fine for some tables.. I am wanting to actually hide the dmd for the tables that I have the issue of "ok the dmd looks bad because the backglass is not allowing for a good picture" if you guys know what I'm trying to say.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here is an example.. I have the avengers pinball fx2 table.. the bottom of the screen is the virtual dmd in some cases it loads the pinballx video when I don't have a dmd for it to produce. In this case I have it loading a avengers png picture. Behind the dmd I have the backglass and it's a nice MP4 video backglass.. as you will notice just based on how the backglass is designed the dmd looks bad because it's cutting off some of the avengers lettering.. I am wondering if there is a way to hide the dmd for specific tables so when I run into that problem I can simply hide the dmd for that table and still have the dmd show for the tables I want such as the terminator table.. this tables backglass has simulated speakers and a dmd section designed right into the backglass art and it looks good with the way I have the virtual dmd set up to take the bottom 1/4 of the screen.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don't have a real dmd I have two computer monitors. A 40" play field and a 16 inch back glass set up like a vertigo pinball style cabinet. I have some dmd MP4 videos located inside my dmd folders for tables like the terminator t2 as well as back glass files as well.. I have the virtual dmd setup in pinballx to take up the bottom 1/4 of the 16 inch screen that shows the backglass when scrolling through tables in the front end. The virtual dmd in pinballx overlays the back glass image and in most cases it looks good. However in the fx2 tables I have MP4 style backglass art and when the virtual dmd is overplaying them it looks crappy.. I was under the assumption that if I click the hide dmd box in game manager it would hide the virtual dmd for the specific tables that I choose so that when scrolling through in pinballx I would see the dmd for the tables I want and hide it for the ones I don't want.. I'm not sure if this is how that option in game manager functions or not.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Maybe I am Misunderstanding how it functions but it seems that the only way I can hide the virtual dmd in the pinballx front end is to simply disable it in the settings but this will disable it for all tables not just the fx2 tables.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm using the pinball Fx front end and when scrolling past pinball fx2 games I want to hide the dmd screen because I have the MP4 back glass loaded for those tables and don't wish to have the dmd overlapping them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey guys.. seeking a little help with pinballx and game manager.. I have a two monitor system and I am trying to hide the virtual dmd for certain games.. in theory I should just have to click the hide dmd box in the game manager for the games that I wish to hide... I wish it was that simple in my case.. for whatever reason game manager seems to function properly with everything but that specific selection.. I have ran the program regularly and as administrator.. I have even tried to edit the game databases and still I can't seem to hide the dmd... what am I missing here or have I uncovered a glitch?
