Is it a possiblity for people who want the info on playfield to have it rotated?

Scutters made this plugin. It shows metadata for the system and game:

Good thinking. So best will be to have multiple loading images, so you always have different loading tables. My loading videos dir is already 2gb..

Maybe thats a good idea scutter. IT will maybe also inspire other people to create overlay images ...

I have ideas enough ! ( i guess), but not sure how to capture my real dmd and to make it as you did. For example the acdc table rocking man walking

The log.txt doesn't show any vpx table launching (so pause not recorded). Can you launch a vpx table from pbx, hit "p" key and post the log again ? I will try to test it today. I thought mine was working, but returning to VP didn't focus the screen

That looks awesome @scutters! Thanks ! Now I need to recreate all my videos again to randomize the overlays !

And I appreciate your hard work Tom. Without your work (and the pbx community/website) my cabinet wasn't so easy to operate. And the support is also very fast. I hope you will doing this another awful long time

Cool. Thanks !

Create work @scutters ! Here's a little video demonstration (sorry for my bad camera recording) 20190923_073559.mp4 I set up the systems as a "2" liner and table as a "1" liner I use the font "DigiFace" as Scutters has in his screenshot (Digiface is not standard on the os. just download this Digir___0.ttf and hit install) The positions of the displays, is a bit of try out. My playfield is 4K (3840x2160) and my backglass is HD (1920x1080) This is how my INI file looks : PBXStatsDisplay.ini Maybe a small request .. The high scores does't show the ranking. maybe pre-fix it with 1), 2) or 3) ?

Where you able to download pbx ?

Update 153 worked for me, but now using 1.73. Check this post. I downloaded 1.73 fro. There https://vpinball.com/forums/topic/freezy-dmd-question/#post-115676

I thought that dmdext 1.72 doesn't work with the bally and williams. On Freezys website (github) there is a thread with a modified exe file that will work. Also dmdext 1.73 is working for me

Got it Tom ! Roms where pretty old. I have a full rom set and those are working now. I set the exit to [KEYCODE_ESCAPE] (instead of [KEYCODE_ESC]) and that is working. Got all working except the weather report, but thats no big deal. Thanks for your help ! And sorry for the noob questions I had.

Checked today again, removed and reinstalled all. But the mame roms won't be listed Just added 20 roms from my old cabinet, and the [LIST_MAME_VERIFY].txt shows that the roms are bad [LIST_MAME_VERIFY].txt Installing HBmame and copy the files, all the roms are listed I also installed GameEx. That has a lot of settings, but the same roms works with the MAME emulator. And I have set the ESC key of the keyboard to exit emulator, but that doesn't work. Works fine in Gamex itself Small other thing. The weather plugin doesn't work in Gameex Evolution. Worksfine in gameEx for me [SETUPWIZARD].log[GAMEEX_EVOLUTION].log

Just away of the pc now. Thought the exit button was mapped to esc. Using it in emulators didn't close it (was not on rdp. But directly behind) And did click the audit games button, but didnt show anything. Well... need to figure out more . Getting step by step closer ! Will give it a try tonight or tomorrow again !

Tested with some laptops/tablets I had, but looks like front end needs a "powerfull" machine Had a Core I5-4300u with an intel HD4400 GPU and 4gb memory. Front end was sluggish. used a CoreI5 -8350u with UHD620 and 8gb memory and front end is working fine. So need to have a system setup with that specs. Just one question. for configuration ( i think I miss something) I have 3 emulators added. Mame/SNES/Atari 2600. Added some roms too in the subfolders :"UserData\Emulation\ROMs" For SNES and Atari I can add the roms to the system, but for mame, I don't see anything. At a sudden moment, I saw in total around 3300 roms (but just added 20) . And all showed me rom not found. So how do I get mame roms added to the list ? [SETUPWIZARD].log[GAMEEX_EVOLUTION].log[GAMEEX].ini And how do I quit from a game ? I left the defaults, but ESC doesn't quit the emulator. but will shows the features in SNES and Atari emulator.

Thanks Tom. It didn't launch and gave an error in eventlog. Tested on laptop and worked. I will try upgrading the ram or will buy a new pc for it. Still fighting how to get all mame roms get copied over from "old" system to EVO. But I will get there someday. Thanks all for the help ! And sorry to be a noob in this

PBX should take care of it, but you can try something like: taskkill /IM VPinballX.exe and you are sure that PBX is running as admin ?

c:\program files and/or c:\ program files (x86) These are normally good folders for installing software, but permissions wise (executing files and DLL blocks) doesn't really help. I don't say this is the silver bullet, but give it a try (So installing VPX and PBX to another folder)

Not sure. I see that PBX doesn't see the exit command. But I asume you pressed it. Another thing I do noticed (not sure if that causing issues) is that you install all in the program files dir. When I started my virtual pinball adventure, I read on a lot of forums, to skip that because of windows priviliges. I have all installed in c:\pinball (even p-proc). Also for backup (i recooment to backup) it is easy to put all in the same directory

Can you simulate your issue and post the logfile after simulation ? In your current logfile, I don't see any launch of a table

Thanks ! Tom adviced me to use GameEx Evo. I want the Mame, but also the nintendo, sega and atari. I will first try to get some extra memory, before going further. If I setup Evo on a test computer and configure the emulators, can I easily copy over the complete directory to the cabinet ?

Hi, I'm a totally newbee for Gameex evo. I've bought an arcade cabinet years ago. This was pre-installed with a front end thats loaded in DOS. I started this week to change the harddisk and installed w10 on it. I found that the pc only had 1gb of ram and a dualcore e6500. I suspect memory is on the low side, so need to find if i can find 4gb modules. Anyway... checking and reading this forum for weeks now, but could not find a real manual or install documentation for Evo. I installed it today on my cab, but there are so much settings, that I was totaly lost. Is there a quick reference guide? Sorry for this noob question

Is PBX running in admin mode ? Button 10 is your exit button ? And attach the log, don't put the complete text in here
