Preferences- VideoGraphics options – Adjust visual nudge strength to 0.

Thank you!

Any idea on how to tell if that nudge script is working? I didnt notice a difference after adding it.

Isnt popper just displaying a movie of the dmd? Why would it care about a couple roms having both external and windows dmd enabled? I tried disabling both dmds on all the roms this was configured on, but in popper when changing the games they all still have 2 dmds running. Virtual dmd and a popscreen0.

another option to try,  batch flipY all the bmps in pupcapture folder youself… don’t know what you’d use but as long as its the same size/format that might work.  (try with one file in pupcapture to see).

I found a powershell command that allows for rotate and flip. I did a flipy on all the bmp’s. They look correct. But when st…[Read more]

PinMAME is using both Internal and External DMD solutions. Press F1 while the table is running, and click off “show DMD”, but leave “Use External DMD” checked.

I have that setup for some tables but not all of them. Its not the default settings for a new rom either. I’ll test that out, thanks.

I enabled both dmd’s. Pinmame has flipy enabled and virtualdmd flipvertically is disabled. Seems to be working although the virtualdmd sometimes has focus over the pinmame. Otherwise working out. Thanks for all your help.

Oh wow. Immediately noticeable after changing the dmddevice.ini’s flipvertically = false. Is there anyway to fix this with it being set to true?

What is this –> flipy enabled

flipvertically = true in dmddevice.ini and flipy is used in the rom registry for games not using the virtualdmd.

Be sure you are only using the 32bit version of freezy 1.71 and that it’s installed in the VPinMAME folder….not a subfolder. Do not have any other versions of frezzy installed elsewhere on you system that could be picked up instead.

All of that is done. I’ve setup a batch file that unblocks files from pinupsystem, visual pinball, dofdir.

Is there any log indication that Pup is receiving properly from freezy?

Some very helpful stuff here! I went with the smaller 6 button unit and love it. I will note that the 6 button model has a triagular body so can’t be mounted flush. No biggie. I have it velcro’d on the right side so it can be moved about when needed.

I’m thinking about making a metal mount that makes it point at your head but off to…

I picked up a stream deck yesterday. It’s quite amazing. I have buttons to change my Peace profiles, global audio change, mute, two buttons that show GPU load with a graph and CPU %. Turn on DOF shaker, contactors, killall which kills pinup popper, vpx, launch pinup popper and vpx. It also has some bookmarks for websites.

While I have control of…[Read more]

I took my desktop over the weekend and replaced my vpin computer. It now has an i7-6700k, 16gb, m.2 drive. No stuttering when virtualdmd is used or color roms. I was trying to prove out the I’m not using 100% of my cpu threads as they still had room when reviewing cpu performance.

I did this:

• Switched Virtual DMD and VPinmame dmd to 1024×256

Having the movies played to the right a bit, not in the castle properly. How do I fix this?

there is no way 1240×320 matches what I suggested to try.

I’m confused. I thought it had to be a multiple of 128×32. I started with that size, then started multiplying up to get the best coverage with the monitor. So I did 128*10 and 32*10 to reach those numbers. 1240×320 fits well in terms of size. Would 1024×256 work? (512×128*2)

This was trying to utilize most of the space on the dmd monitor

This was setting the dmd height and width to 1280×320. It’s interesting the stutter is much less.

Initially, I had cpu threads hitting 100% which made sense why the audio garble was happening. Now, after tweaking everything…[Read more]
