      I own the real one and this one looks great too.  I have a cabinet table, but this one shows up in portrait and needs to be rotated to fill the cabinet.  I’m kind of new to this, but most tables display correctly on the cabinet.  Appreciate any tips.  Current global video settings work for most every other table installed.  Any advice is appreciated.

        I think this table is set for portrait mode.

        This is how you can rotate it, as it seems just putting the numbers in the rightside menu doesn’t work.

        I think these type of tables use an XML file for the settings.

        You can load the table in the Visual Pinball Editor, and then click File tab, you will see Export, hover mouse over that and click Export Backdrop POV.

        You can name it whatever you want.

        This will give you an XML file, which you can rightclick on and click open with Notepad, then open with Notepad and edit.

        Here is what the XML will look like..

        <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”utf-8″?>
        <POV>
        <desktop>
        <inclination>52.000000</inclination>
        <fov>52.000000</fov>
        <layback>0.000000</layback>
        <rotation>0.000000</rotation>
        <xscale>0.980000</xscale>
        <yscale>1.070000</yscale>
        <zscale>1.000000</zscale>
        <xoffset>-2.000000</xoffset>
        <yoffset>62.000000</yoffset>
        <zoffset>-280.000000</zoffset>
        </desktop>
        <fullscreen>
        <inclination>10.000000</inclination>
        <fov>50.000000</fov>
        <layback>50.000000</layback>
        <rotation>0.000000</rotation>
        <xscale>1.170000</xscale>
        <yscale>1.070000</yscale>
        <zscale>1.000000</zscale>
        <xoffset>-12.000000</xoffset>
        <yoffset>-8.000000</yoffset>
        <zoffset>-475.000000</zoffset>
        </fullscreen>
        <fullsinglescreen>
        <inclination>52.000000</inclination>
        <fov>52.000000</fov>
        <layback>0.000000</layback>
        <rotation>0.000000</rotation>
        <xscale>0.980000</xscale>
        <yscale>1.070000</yscale>
        <zscale>1.000000</zscale>
        <xoffset>-2.000000</xoffset>
        <yoffset>62.000000</yoffset>
        <zoffset>-280.000000</zoffset>
        </fullsinglescreen>
        </POV>

        This is where you will add 270 for table rotation. So it will look like this…

        <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”utf-8″?>
        <POV>
        <desktop>
        <inclination>52.000000</inclination>
        <fov>52.000000</fov>
        <layback>0.000000</layback>
        <rotation>0.000000</rotation>
        <xscale>0.980000</xscale>
        <yscale>1.070000</yscale>
        <zscale>1.000000</zscale>
        <xoffset>-2.000000</xoffset>
        <yoffset>62.000000</yoffset>
        <zoffset>-280.000000</zoffset>
        </desktop>
        <fullscreen>
        <inclination>10.000000</inclination>
        <fov>50.000000</fov>
        <layback>50.000000</layback>
        <rotation>270.000000</rotation>
        <xscale>1.170000</xscale>
        <yscale>1.070000</yscale>
        <zscale>1.000000</zscale>
        <xoffset>-12.000000</xoffset>
        <yoffset>-8.000000</yoffset>
        <zoffset>-475.000000</zoffset>
        </fullscreen>
        <fullsinglescreen>
        <inclination>52.000000</inclination>
        <fov>52.000000</fov>
        <layback>0.000000</layback>
        <rotation>0.000000</rotation>
        <xscale>0.980000</xscale>
        <yscale>1.070000</yscale>
        <zscale>1.000000</zscale>
        <xoffset>-2.000000</xoffset>
        <yoffset>62.000000</yoffset>
        <zoffset>-280.000000</zoffset>
        </fullsinglescreen>
        </POV>

         

        Now save the XML file, and now import it back into table by clicking File tab, then Import Backdrop POV.

        Now that you have the table rotated…Instead of clicking play from the table tab, click Camera/Light Edit Mode from the Table tab.(Or Click F6)

        This will start the table in a camera mode, where you can adjust the table to fit your screen by using L-Alt and flipper keys. Use R-CTRL to toggle different settings.

        Adjust to your liking and save table afterwards.

        If you are having trouble editting your XML file, I added one as attachment with rotation set for 270.

        Just unzip and import into table using the File Tab, Import, Backdrop POV.

        XML

        Hope this helps you.

            Make a drinking game out of it. Everytime somebody asks about the screen showing up wrong. You’ll get good and toasted.

              Hi!

              Whem loading table it is rotated -90 on my portrait screen. So table is very small.

              Can it be fixed?

              I also run in exclusive Fullscreen and cant focus the starting meny, but solved that with ddraw 1 and disable the meny and then went back.

                  I can´t get a ball to play the table, I insert coins and play start but nothing happends, works with some other tables I have tried, any idea?
                  I get the DMD in fullscreen, saw something about using compact mode (where?). How do I do to save the DMD position and size for each table? ddraw = 0 is it only possible to change in the registry or ? going to att Visual pinballX to my pinballX Is it true that I can´t use true fullscreen mode when using pinballX?

                    Calle,
                    Regarding the fail to start. Nearly everytime I see this mentioned. Its a key mapping issue. Might review your setting under preferences/keys in the editor. I am also not aware of a similar issue from the 2000+ folks who have downloaded the table. As far as I know, it should not
                    be the table.

                    I will need to defer to one of the other very helpful folks here on your DMD issues. I use an external DMD and just dont know the solution for you.

                      I suggest that you delete the registry entry. You will have to rotate the table once more though.

                      Reset a table to default

                        Thanks for your input!

                        Solved it, tested the Rom and saw that it was broken. So I just downloded another and it worked directly.

                        Imported a rotate xml and got the table to look good, will tune the angle with the camera function.

                        I still have issues with tables with PinMAME DMD I get the DMD on the playfield all the time and when I move it to the backglas monitor and exit and save it still is on the playfield monitor the next time. :wacko:

                          Ok, the only thing that comes to mind is if you have a lcd monitor as dmd and that you are running dmddevice. I believe it will put the dmd at the same location as you have in the dmddevice.ini each time – overriding the registry. Or, for some reason you’re settings are not saved. Have a look in the rom folder … there you see entries for x and y poss. You should see these change after you’ve moved the dmd and exited Vp.
