Nevermind Tom I see what you are saying....Will test it out again.

Pinnacle Game Profiler is another awesome one as well that is packed with ton of features and it's the only one that I know of that allows you to program an XBOX360 Guide button to any keyboard command!!

Is there an option in the Game Manager to move the DMD on my backglass monitor and put it at a certain position on the correct monitor???? Hmmmm I'm confused...... I am using a 3 monitor setup but I don't see that option in the Game Manager as I am using that to setup my tables. I am talking about after you run the table Tom. If you have a DMD that needs to be moved on first run as the dmd will be on the wrong monitor and I need to move it to the correct backglass monitor. If that is in the Game Manager where is it at?? I have to do it in VP first then I am able to run the table perfectly in PinballX. The first time you ever run a VPinMAME table you need to move the dmd and size so it looks correct on the backglass that is if the table has a dmd unless it's a directb2s type of table. I hope that explains a bit more why I requested that feature.

Tom would it be possible to have an option in the setup wizard to enable/disable the mouse pointer because if we run the table the first time thru PinballX we need to move/setup the position of the dmd on first run. This way wouldn't need to do it in VP first before running PinballX.

Here is a theme I did for fun. Arcade Legends cabinet tribute.

Thanks KRC.

The wheel image for Dragon (Interflip 1977) is wrong. It says Dragonfist??? I made a corrected version.

I uploaded to the FTP a few company logos that are missing. Interflip & Inder

A few more ...

For those who haven't seen the pics of this themes WIP. Here are a few pics of what I have done so far.

Since I've got my PinballX setup all up and running .... now it's time to get back into GameEx and continue where I left off with this theme. Stay tuned for some new updates!!

Tom is working on the mouse pointer issue so this will not be a issue soon.

Thanks Tom

What I am trying to say is the version you just gave me tonight the mouse pointer issue is fixed but it is not shutting down when you try to exit back to desktop it just hangs. You have to go into Win8 task manager to close it. Your Test version 1.73 works just fine with the exception of the mouse pointer issue.

The second time it worked correctly but still when I try to exit PinballX back to the desktop the backglass still there and wont shutdown properly it is not responding. I have to goto the task manager and shutdown pinballx manually that way. I reverted back to 1.73 and it works fine when shutting down pinballx

oh oh fixed the mouse issue but when I went to shut down pinballx it closed but the backglass still shows and music keeps playing and pinballx says not responding. wierd thing was when I exited the table and went back to pinballx it moved my display to my other monitor.

No prob Tom will check it out and let you know!

This type of setup works great if you are using PinballX and GameEx on 1 computer and want a desktop PC and a PinballX system setup together. Since Visual Pinball will run only on a primary display I needed to switch the displays which move PinballX to my secondary display. However my graphics card a nVidia GTX670 named my displays wrong as it made my PinballX monitor #1 and my HDTV as #2 so to fix that I created 2 monitor profiles in Display Fusion with the "Default" being my HDTV as #1 and PinballX as #2 and the Backglass as #3. Then created another profile "PinballX" so when I run PinballX will automatically switch those displays to HDTV #2 and PinballX as #1 and Backglass as #3 then configured PinballX to execute those profiles when I run PinballX all seemlessly. I thought I would just explain as to why you might want to do this. Hope this helps anyone else. To fix the mouse pointer showing on the backglass I just arranged the monitors (In both monitor profiles) as: BACKGLASS (Above PinballX monitor) HDTV PINBALLX Hope this helps anyone else out that uses a similar type of setup.

Well the only bad thing with that setup thou is the DMD will not save it's position on the backglass. However when I reverted it back to my original display arrangement (2 1 3) the mouse cursor no longer shows. Very strange it seems to have corrected it for now. Must be kinda random or something not sure what is the cause of it.

Ok I figured out why the mouse pointer shows up! I had my monitors setup as: 2 1 3 then the mouse pointer shows up on the backglass 3 and when I moved it to: 2 1 where monitor 3 is above 1 then the mouse cursor disappears. *Note: Monitor 2 is my HDTV Monitor 3 is my Backglass Monitor 1 is my table display Maybe it has something to do with nVidia drivers.

Nice find! Will try it out.

Not exactly as I am already doing that but I have a monitor that can rotate so it's basically 1080x1920 however the backglass will stretch and look funny so I only want the top section of the monitor to be the backglass and the bottom half could be the dmd so essentially it could almost look like you have 3 monitors. I don't want the backglass all stretched if you get my drift. Unless of course I could change the B2S Setup settings to a different dimension. Hmmmm don't know why I didn't think of that. Guess I'll try it that way and see what happens.

hmmm now I'm not so sure what was the cause. I thought I was having some driver issues due to other things as well not related to PinballX but I decided to give Win 8.1 Pro a go again and now it's working fine. Go figure ....

Haven't tinkered with it yet but thought I would pose the ? just too see if anyone has tried it. I will play around with it later to see if it will work.

Is it possible to rotate a monitor for example 1080x1920 and split the screen into 2 sections to have the top half display the backglass and the bottom display the dmd. If so what do you recommend for the software to split the monitor into 2 seperate displays/grid. Is it possible to select where you can split the monitor location at? This way I can have 1 monitor for just the backglass and DMD instead of a 3 monitor setup. Thanks
