did you ever set these options ?

It's all up to you what you want to show. As I like standardization, I made video (based on thalamus his idea) which show a wheel image, followed by year and end with vendor. Most vendors are animated (used @scuttershis animated logo').and for some colorized roms I grabbed the animated logo. It's on the ftp server in the visual pinball :realdmd colored videos and I uploaded a topper version as well. If you are a bit handy and technical, you can buy a cheap esp32 and 2 64x16 led panels and make it to work for just a friction of what the reseller will ask. If you not that handy, you can buy them on he website you specified. It's pretty solid hardware they give. If you live in the Netherlands, maybe you can buy my old pindmdv3 for a decent price 😉

If you set virtual dmd set to true, all is working within pinballx as well? Leave it with the true option if that works for you. Thats pretty tough question. There are some pre builded, but I think they are very expensive. I have a realdmd for years now (pindmdv3). I really love it. Shows pretty cool video's within PinballX, but newer colorization with serum shows slow performance. Freezy told me that it would be fixed in the firmware, but thats taking me too long. I bought an esp32 and flashed the ZeDMD. Tom made it work in PBX in the last version. Now I'm exploring the ZEDMD HD. Double pixels (256×64). Within pbx it works as well. But just as 128x32, but thats fine for now. But the sega games with larger displays looks very awesome on it (but there are just a handfull of those tables). Pinball FX has also support for freezy's dmdext. And those dispays also look nice on the ZeDMD HD. Short video. On top my ZeDMD Hd and also my pinDMDV3 under the backglass WhatsApp Video 2024-11-03 at 06.01.21_ec8ae89e.mp4 This is how it shows my videos with pinballx : 20241029_102400.mp4 And during game play : 20241029_103859.mp4

i'm not sure if yo have a global dmdext config. Check this by opening a command prompt and type Set DMD : If it returns like this, dmddevice.dll always use the global ini file if it is like this you don't have a global setting.: Copy the following files to the root of the PinballX folder : DmdDevice.log.config DmdDevice64.dll And if you got the "Environment variable dmd not defined" also copy the DmdDevice.ini open DMDdevice.log.config from your pinballX folder with your favorite text editor and replace it with the following (this will create a textfile call dmddevice_pbx): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd NLog.xsd" autoReload="true" throwExceptions="false" internalLogLevel="Off" internalLogFile="c:\temp\nlog-internal.log" > <targets> <!-- add your targets here See https://github.com/nlog/NLog/wiki/Targets for possible targets.

If PinballX is still not launching with 6.12 or higher, check the dmddevice_pbx.log in the pinballX folder and check if it find any hardware or as Tom said, maybe this helps as a workaround

how about disabling the following PinballX plugins : 19:06:14.72 20-11-2024: Loaded Plugin:"DirectOutput PinballX Plugin" Version 1 By Swisslizard 19:06:14.84 20-11-2024: PlugIn Did not initialize. Disabling PlugIn 19:06:15.13 20-11-2024: Loaded Plugin:"LED Plugin" Version 1 By Tom Speirs 19:06:15.18 20-11-2024: PlugIn: "LED Plugin" Initialized OK 19:06:15.18 20-11-2024: Using Plugin System Version: 1 will that help ?

You only need the dmddevice64.dll and the dmddevice.log.config file. If you didn't setup dmdext to be global, you need the dmddevice.ini as well, but if you configure it correctly, it uses the one which is registered in the vpinmame folder (check freezy github for global setup)

Thanks for sharing this! I wasn't aware that the audio finished, even when it fates out. How long is your loading video? I only use loading videos of max 7 seconds in loop, but never seen (or realised) it finish it loop. Maybe Tom has an answer on it ?

And can you enable debugging for dmdext, and post the dmddevice.log which is created by pinballx ? (Mostly found in the pinballx root folder)

I'm out of options @Tom Speirs up to you ...

You mentioned you have issues wit .net core. Is that fixed ? Pinballx 3.29 was a version from a couple of years ago. Why you refering to that version ? Can you install 6.11 again, and post the log.txt as well ?

got to your %appdata%\VpinballX fodler and edit VPinballX.ini find section '; Video options' and change your Display = 0 to Display = 1 but that would be the same as changing the settings as I mentioned and click Save changes I feel your pain @keithhov. I had it a couple of weeks ago myself, but al sorted out. Not sure if @scuttersalready upgraded his cabinet to 24h2, but he will not be happy as well

What confuses me is that in your latest pinballx.ini file, you have both the Visual Pinball system and system2 (vpx) enabled. However, the log only shows that the Visual Pinball system database is loaded. 20:31:55.65 11/21/2024: Load Game List 20:31:55.66 11/21/2024: Loading Database: Visual Pinball 20:31:55.67 11/21/2024: Initial load gamelist took: 16ms Did you add the tables through GameManager or Database Manager? Or did you simply download all the tables, place them in the 'F:\vPinball\VisualPinball\Tables\VBX Tables' folder, and then run PinballX? .Net 6 Desktop runtime

Yeah I understand and think Tom like to know how to fix this as well. is the table loaded directly and you see it when using ALT-TAB ? Is it just that PinballX can't find the process and switch over to it ? But will it start instantly, or also a 4 minute delay ? (I still play all my normal tables via DX and only VR and Headtracking through GL. I Don't see any microstutter on my side) Although You don't use the default Visual Pinball System, please try to set this option and retry : Out of curiosity, how is the FS setting in VPX configured for you? If I have some time this weekend, I will also check the table and see how performance goes on my cabinet. I've observed something else that might be of interest (though it's not directly related to your issue, it's something I've encountered myself). You're using DC2.exe during startup to adjust your screen settings. By this time, PinballX is already active and may not properly accommodate the changes you're making (which could involve DPI or resolution adjustments). You might not observe any problems, but I've experienced issues in the past. My solution was to execute DC2.exe prior to starting PinballX.exe.

I did not mean to imply that it was the cause of your issue. I was merely making an observation. I don't have that table on my cabinet, but try to set the full screen exclusive hack for vpx. Maybe that will help a bit. Edit: How about using the DX version of VP 10.8 ? Or is this because you run VR, 3d anaglyph or headtracking that you need to run GL?(just for testing)

I noticed you installed all in the windows 'program files' folder. From the past, this was always a bad choice as windows has more restrictions on it

As I mentioned before, I also encountered issues when upgrading to 24H2 with my display settings (so I hope Scutter won't have many problems with his setup of more than six monitors). However, swapping cables is irrelevant, as Windows stores everything in the registry. Normally, I open the registry editor, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers, and rename 'Configuration' to 'Configuration.old' and 'Connectivity' to 'Connectivity.old', then reboot. This cleans up the monitor configuration in Windows. After rebooting, I set the monitors correctly in Windows. Then, I open VPX and set the playfield monitor correctly as well. Also, open B2S_ScreenResIdentifier.exe and set your monitors correctly again. Finally, open PinballX settings.exe and configure the display numbers according to Windows numbering. if you got FP or any other emulator running, check and fix those as well and a big thanks to MS that screws up the monitor with 24h2

And the screenshot in the first post even mentioned that the DMD isn't enabled in the settings as well ! Glad you sorted it out

I've also observed that my cabinet has been experiencing longer table exiting times this week, which started after the installation of Windows 23H2. Could you also supply the new log that includes the extended black screen duration? Perhaps Tom could work some magic to accelerate the process a bit.

Hey, can you post a log after you select a game and exit it again? So we can see more from your logfile?

I'm just checking your Directourpurconfig51.ini But you rline for PinballX is screwed up this is the complete line :

To compare , this line contains 12193 characters as mine line doesn't have 700 characters So not sure what happend to your line. Or you have something filled in in this part (my guess is that you have a very long line in 'Shaker'): or the dof config tool doesn't make your table right Try this> open the file with notepad.

The plugin activates the toys and send the button presses to dof. Dof itself will initialize and handle the table specific parts, like buttons blinking etc. Although you use an older version of the plugin, I don't think a newer version will help with your issue (I know, as I did the modifications on the newer plugin). To be honest, I really don't have a clue why your PinballX table settings are not working as it should. If all the files are in place and your table file is correct as well, it should just follow the pattern of those settings. Sorry buddy.

I see you are using latest DOF. I'm still using an older version. Log file looks fine except in can't use the GlobalConfig_PinballX.xml. Try copy the GlobalConfig.xml to GlobalConfig_PinballX.xml Can you post your pinballx log.txt as well?

btw. I like the theme of your cabinet!

Oddly, it likely has nothing to do with your pinballx.ini or DOF plugin (if one is in use), but rather with how the 32-bit DOF is configured for your PinballX. I assume that the configuration is downloaded and applied correctly. However, I'm not sure about your DOF setup. Let's verify this step by step. Find the '<32 BIT DOF PATH>\Config' folder on your cabinet. I specifically mention "32 BIT DOF PATH" because PinballX plugins only use 32-bit applications in the plugin. Open the GlobalConfig_PinballX.xml file and ensure that the INIPATH is directed to your 32-bit DOF path. For instance, mine points to <IniFilesPath>C:\Pinball\DirectOutput</IniFilesPath> Navigate to the <IniFilesPath> directory, which should contain the file directoutputconfig.ini. Open this file with Notepad and search for "PinballX," (without the quotes) to verify if the blink is still present in the complete line. Copy that specific line and paste it into a new text file to make it read better Alternatively, you can modify the 'dof config tool' for the PinballX table. For instance, change the 'start button' to make it blink with a fu250 and fd250. After saving this configuration, download it and unzip in folder from the <IniFilesPath>. Reopen the directoutputconfig.ini file and check if the PinballX table line now includes your fu250 and fd250 settings. If it does, launch PinballX to test. Should this not resolve the issue, reopen the GlobalConfig_pinballX.xml file to ensure logging is enabled. If it is not, enable it as follows: <EnableLogging>true</EnableLogging> <ClearLogOnSessionStart>true</ClearLogOnSessionStart> <LogFilePattern>.\DirectOutputPBX.log</LogFilePattern> This will create the logfile DirectoutputPBX.log in your pinballx folder open PBX check the lights, if not working, Open the DirectoutputPBX.log file 2024.11.06 07:32:24.974 No TableFilename specified, will use empty tableconfig 2024.11.06 07:32:24.974 Will try to load configs from DirectOutput.ini or LedControl.ini file(s) for RomName PinballX 2024.11.06 07:32:24.976 Loading LedControl file C:\Pinball\DirectOutput\directoutputconfig.ini 2024.11.06 07:32:24.983 Min DOF Version is 0.8 for file directoutputconfig.ini The output will indicate the directory and file in use (directoutputconfig.ini). Please verify that everything is correct and that there are no errors in the log I trust that following these steps will shed light (💡) on any misconfigurations.

Nice ! Thanks for sharing. I need a couple of times search for my key as it cleared somehow within fx3.
