Won't launch cmd for dmdext after upgrade of PinballX

[Tom Speirs]

And this one please also although this one may crash. Just wanted to try,

XDMD_PinDMD3_ByRef.7z

[Tom Speirs]

Also try the original 64 bit PinDMD3.dll from pinDMD

Note: Should be named PinDMD.dll not 64.

 

 

pinDMD.7z

3 dll's to test ... temperature is getting higher and attic is get hotter...

But as I'm awake early, I will try to test it tomorrow (although I promised scutters to do some other work as well). Choices, Choices, choices....

Think scutters needs to wait

Hey Tom
With both versions of XDMD.dll PinballX crashes immediately 

Application: PinballX.exe
CoreCLR Version: 6.0.1623.17311
.NET Version: 6.0.16
Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.
Exception Info: System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'XDMDNative, Version=1.1.8523.3577, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (0x80131040)

   at PinballX.FrmMain..ctor()
   at PinballX.FrmMain.Main(String[] CmdArgs)

XDMDNative.dll is still in the directory.
Reverting to the XDMD.dll that is shipped with latest version, launched PBX again

Using your (modified?) Pindmd.dll
Pressing launch, shows me 30 seconds of black screen, and DMD is not working during VPX

Downloading the X64 version of pindmd.dll from the website and rename it, results in the same results. When launching directly a game after PBX is launched, takes around 20 seconds, before it actually is starting to launch the table, but the DMD is working

Waiting for screensaver and launch it (actually, screensaver didn't start, but waited a longer period), shows the same behaviour as before. Long wait before XDMD is closing, but stil NO DMD during VPX tablelog.txt
