Last night I added 20 more games to my VP9.9 config. I set them all up using VP first then went to confirm in PinballX. What I found, and I could never find the trigger, something was moving them off the bg monitor and hidding it under the pf.

I used dmd_mover to reset the values, confirmed in vp then would go into pinballx and a few would work then something would trigger the "bug?". The dmd would show the reseting rom dmd screens then it would move.

Anyways .. I will work on replicating this and report back anything I can to narrow it down. I quickly tried to replicate it this morning but was unable to.

I have the very latest pinballx (did not see this in the prior version). I am using VP 9.9 but not a physmod version. I *may* have put a physmod table on in this latest 20 game load.

I noticed a couple of others on vpuniverse with this issue.

The build is a Ultrapin cabinet reworked with new pc etc .. so a 2 screen setup with dmd below the bg on the 2nd monitor.

I guess at this point I post just to see if others have seen this or if its a know issue.

Just throwing some idea`s and not claiming it will work, but have you tried setting system type to visual pinball in your physmod set up?.

And what are the dmd values of the default rom in the registry?, or even try deleting the default entry and renaming one of your known to be good roms as default.

Also there is the mjr mod of phymod5 that store its values differently to stock phys5 is that what you are using?.

Although I do not see how that can affect the Pinmame reg settings IDK?.

Do you know if this behavior started with or before the implementation of pinmame support into PinballX?.

I know that is more questions than answers but it may bring something to light.

I am *not* using the physmod version of vpinball. I may have grabbed a table or two that were mods of that since I didnt know if they would work or not but they were newer versions of the tables.

It was working fine with the 80 tables I had previously before the new release .. what was it 1.89? or something that just came thru. I am not sure if that is just coincidence or not.

I am using the registry entries of the unaffected tables to reset all the tables back to known good values. That has been my saviour so far.

This whole config for me is only 3 weeks old as that is when I started putting my cabinet pieces all together. I hope to do some more testing tonight to see if it happens again or if I can duplicate it.

Played about 30+ different games tonight without this issue showing up.. no idea why but it appears to be fine.

*Closed*

I will start a new thread wth how the dmd images/videos dont show after playing one game and going back to the menu.
