DEMOLITION MAN PuPPack. Send a Maniac to catch a Maniac . tested with rom dm_lx4 and the Demolitionman table (Knorr-Kiwi 1.3.1)
This PuPPack requires Pinup Popper and Pinup Player installed and updated to 1.4 or higher.
System:Â Visual Pinball X (version 10.5+)
Features:
-different options to fit your setup(default setup is for 3 Screen user with Lcd DMD and Topper)
in the PupPack are PUPConfigfiles..zip you can overwrite the Existing files in your PUPackroot folder to use them .
PuPconfig_2 Screens_ Realdmd without Topper (for 2 Screen user with real dmd and without topper.)
PuPconfig_2Screens_withoutRealDMDwithoutTopper (what the name says for people using 1 screen for BG and DMD)
PuPconfig_3Screens_MaxPack (thats default Setup Action on all Triggers inkluded Topper
Extra( big thanks to Nailbuster for this nice feature) if you have performance Problems you can use Nailbusters resize ALL Media it will convert all mp4 to 2/3 size. so 1920×1080 goes to 1280×720 for example this will relieve your system if needed
– OST Music (i used the Altsound Methode to mute the rom. Music is playing from PupPack.)
-different Videos for all modes on every Level matching the Gameplay
-different toppervideos
-animated Backglassunderlay
-works with all cabinet configurations (DMD can be positioned in the bottom text area if required there fore use the PuPconfig_2Screens_withoutRealDMDwithoutTopper file.
-over 130 PuPCapture DMD images being monitored

-works with the colour rom
REQUIREMENTS: IMPORTANT!
Visual Pinball X 10.5 All in One or higher installed (this is to include newest B2S Server):
https://vpinball.com/VPBdownloads/categories/vpx-exes/
PinMAME 3.2 beta or higher installed:
PINUP SYSTEM (1.4 or higher):
PinUP System 1.4 FULLY installed and PinUP Player setup. (The Pinup Popper front-end is not required for PuP-Packs, for those who use another front-end)
DMDEXT:
DMDExt 1.71 (32 bit/x86 files only!) or higher installed in your VPinMAME folder and configured to enable PUPCapture!
This PuP-Pack relies on monitoring the freezy dmdext DMD for specific images to trigger videos and music (PuPCapture). This needs both the freezy 1.71+ “dmddevice.dll” file, and the Pinup Player “dmddevicePUP.dll” file in your VPinMAME folder.
Ensure PuPCapture is enabled in the dmddevice.ini file (in your VPinMAME folder):
[pinup]
enabled=true
Note: If you are using a real DMD, then ensure that the freezy virtual DMD is disabled in the dmddevice.ini file:
; a DMD that renders with nice dots on a computer monitor
[virtualdmd]
enabled = false
PINMAME:
In the PinMAME settings for Demolitionman (press F1 during gameplay):
– you must have “Use External DMD (DLL)” enabled. This will enable the freezy dmdext dmddevice.dll to be used, which is needed for PuPCapture.
Your DMD must be in English for all PuPCapture video triggers to work correctly!
PinUPPlayerB2SDriver and B2S SERVER SETTINGS:
Be sure that your PuPB2s Driver and B2S server settings are setup and working correctly so you don’t get any errors.

NO DIRECTB2S BACKGLASS RUNNING:
You MUST NOT have a directb2s running at all, or it will obscure the PuP Backglass!!!
Simply make sure you have a copy of your favorite Ironman table (intended only for use with this PuP-Pack), and make sure it is named VERY differently to your directb2s file, so when you launch that copy of your table it won’t launch the directb2s!
FRONT-END MEDIA DISABLED FOR DemolitionmanTABLE:
Make sure you have no media displayed on your Backglass and Topper when launching the table from a front-end.
Pinball X: In Games Manager, make sure you have “Hide Topper” and “Hide Backglass” enabled for the table you are using.
Popper:Â In Games Manager, for the table you are using, enter -1 In the “Keep Displays ON” field (to not use Popper media on ALL Displays when launching the table)
================================================
INSTALLATION:
Ensure there are no files in your “PUPVideos” “dm_lx4” folder (if that folder already exists).
Copy the PuP-Pack “dm_lx4” folder from the archive into your PUPVideos folder.
This Pack comes with OST-Music so you have to use my altsound folder. Copy the content fom altsound.zip into your Vpinmame altsound folder. Overwrite or Delete your existing file or make a backup from your old altsound file. Press during Gameplay F1 And change Altsound mode to :1 . Restart the table, thats it. Enjoy highquality sound. The Table comes with 3 Main Sounds that will change after every new game.(or wait 8 sek. After start it will switch to the next Main Song)
PROBLEMS:
If you have video stuttering or artifacts with PuP-Packs with VPX… you most likely don’t have VSYNC properly setup in VPX. Set “FPS Limiter/VSYNC” to 1, and “Maximum Pre-Rendered Frames” to 1 in VPX Video Options. This can also be set per-table in the Table’s “User Customization” options, so check that as well.
Having certain programs running in the background can also cause issues as they may interfere with VLC or prevent Overlays from displaying. Try closing out other programs / processes to see if that helps resolve any issues.
If the OST music “during gameplay” isn’t working correctly then you probably didn’t update correctly.
To make it CLEAR. You MUST be updated “properly” to Pinup System 1.4 for this Pack to work “correctly”! Some videos may not be triggering,
If you don´t want to use Topper go to PupPackeditor and disable screen 0 and screen16.
If you don´t want to use OST Music go to PuPPackeditor and disable screen 4 and screen 17.

Looks awesome, can’t wait to try it! Every pack you do gets better and better.

it always depends on the material you find. Unfortunately, Demolition Man is a bit older. It was harder to find good basic material, I had to cheat on the sound and put in something strange, but I like it so much better

Hmm. I’d like to try it but I just get a black screen w/reference table. All other Pup packs for VPX and FX3 working fine.  PinUpPlayerTestPack.exe won’t even pop up the background. Anyone have success?

normally there is only a black screen until PressStart or Insert Coin comes up in Dmd Display, that Triggers the first Videos. maybe try another dm_lx4 rom

Same issue here unfortunately. On version 1.4 and no issues with any other PuP-Packs. One thing I noticed is if I whack the dm_lx4 from the PupVideos folder and launch the table is does not even create a blank dm_lx4 folder, very weird. Will try another rom I guess.

Thanks for the feedback everyone.. Tried the roms on this site and VPU still no joy.
I noticed the PinUPPlayer and pinupdisplay does not launch when I play the game. Tried pre-launching.. no luckTried using vpinmame tester let rom run though attract cycle, nothing on backglass or topper.
Oh, I’m also using the altcolor colorization which works BTW…Â PUP is 1.4.1
not sure where to debug next…
Any other ideas?

Tried the same
Me too. Other games do seem to create an empty folder though. I installed some non pup vpx tables today and they created empty folders in PUPVideos… Very odd..You need to login in order to like this post: click here

Figured out my issue.
This got it running for me… had to go here and replace this file:
http://www.nailbuster.com/wikipinup/doku.php?id=pupb2s_patch
I still had an issue with it freezing once it was running…. I thought I was on DMDExt 1.7.1 but I wasn’t (stupid me). So I updated to DMDExt 1.7.1 32 Bit and got it going.
Hope that helps.

Hi,
Im having a little trouble.
I have no screen appear when I load the game. If I leave the game a few seconds the attract screen appears and when I press start the back glass shows and the videos play etc but nothing at the very beginning. Any thoughts please?
I’ve tried changing my ROM, updated all programmes and updated the B2S driver as suggested above.
