Quick answer, we’re already working on it!

I recently got a bug report that Tweaks don’t work for the first LEDWiz device. That only effects the first device, if you have multiple of it. Other devices are also not affected.

And if you add a new device that could lead to an exception on the table detail view.

Both issues should be fixed in preview release of the upcoming 0.6.5 version.…[Read more]

Why don’t you use the environment emision to darken the table?

It is a bigger problem that effects mostly older tables in combination with “some” monitors, especially iiyma. I couldn’t explain it in depth.
Any method you use in VPX to “darker” these tables will only affect the brightness but this “fog” or “washed out” colors remain i…[Read more]

OK, I’m affected by these too bright or “washed out” colors in combination with my iiyama 4k playfield and VPX in exclusive fullscreen mode.
I fixed that individually per table by applying individual LUT files to the tables. But if a table like Mustang manipulates the LUT itself for effects this approach doesn’t work.
So I read various discussions…[Read more]

First of all, thanks @Siggi fo this table.

But the table looks much brighter than the screenshot here. I normally fix this by importing another LUT file. But this is not possible with this table because something (in the script) immideately resets the LUT. Any ideas?

@Tom I won’t do vocal explanations. I know enough users who have difficulties to follow them in English. Therefore I would prefer a textual instructions as overlay. But so far I’m not an expert in creating videos. Maybe the next one.

@Thalamus Thanks for pointing to the documentiton. It is pretty complete regarding tweaks but lacks the newer non…[Read more]

Meanwhile I found three bugs in 0.6.2. Nothing critical, so I can just continue with 0.6.3 development and don’t need to provide a hot fix release. You can follow the state at https://github.com/mkalkbrenner/dof_configtool_client/milestone/13

FYI As first post in the new forum I just anounced the 0.6.2 release.

I created another video about how you can quickly update your Pinball Frontend to the new 1-0-1 version and how you re-apply your individual settings to the script using the DOF Configtool Client 0.6.2:

I think this would nice

Have the website be the place where you Set the type of hardware you have and DOF info like it is now

Then download the files to a program to Modify them to match your system With more options than what’s the website offers

I was informed it would bog down the website too much to have these options out t…

@randr that would be great. Even if the name doesn’t fit the tool perfectly anymore, I’m not a friend of renaming. So having a “DOF Configtool Client” section in FRONT END SUPPORT would be nice. Time will tell if anything else is needed.

@randr thanks for your reply. I’m close to the 0.6.2 release with some new features not yet shown in any video or described somewhere. And that’s what I want to change. I think of a beta thread like other tools do, to give testers links to fresh builds and to gather feedback before a “stable” release.
And I think that there’s a need for a support…[Read more]

That is cool. Next time though. When you record a video you want to share. Maybe change the resolution on your desktop a bit so it becomes easier to see what you are actually writing and pressing. Now, I just need give priority to that damn dead pacled.

I agree. It requires a bigger monitor to be able to read the important parts.…[Read more]

Sure, the VPMalias is a new feature.

I now run this table using the ROM alias “im_vt”. It works perfectly well and I can start tweaking the DOF configuration independent from Laser War, in other word they don’t interfere with each other anymore

I quickly recorded a video how I did it:

Thanks!

Well made table.

I’m not usually into Heavy metal, but this theme, song, voice-overs is just great!

Just a quick thinking when re-usings roms:

Is it possible to make a renamed copy of a rom to avoid conflicts with the original table.

Like copy/renaming “lwar83.zip” to “lwar83_im.zip” and then just change the scrip…
