for people who play exclusive fullscreenmode and have problems with crashes. look at the changelog

UPDATE:so I reworked the PupPack for Batman

- corrected the custom position of the screens - dmd in Bg and Topper work now only with one screen (previously 2 each) - invalid files that could cause errors are removed -background Pictures converted to mp4 - Removed invalid folders from Playlist.Pup - built in multiple trigger skip same priority so it plays smoothly - Not visible backgrounds in the underlay frame filled black I also tried a few things with the audio files but undone them again unfortunately this could not prevent the crashes in exclusiv Fullscreen mode (I think this table needs a lot of computing power + PupPack that is too much in this mode) So I recommend playing this game in Windows Fullscreen. It smoothly played my cab (i5, 12gb ram, gtx 1070, 4k) who wants to play exclusive fullscreen. In the PupPackeditor you should either set screen 1 DMD text to off or set screen 0 topper to off (then there is no stuttering) and maybe no crash is system dependent

Here comes Batman the Dark Knight PupPack

with about 100 videos and Original Movie Soundtracks.

Thanks to TerryRed for his help with the PupPackeditor and his Description, to Sven Breuer for testing, and BambiPlattfuss for testing and his TopperVideo.

System: Visual Pinball X (version 10.5+)

Features:

-about 100 different Videos

-animated frame with changing colours

-optional PuP-Tracks music (that replaces the mono low quality SAM music). Featuring (high quality stereo) Original Movie Soundtracks from the first 3 movies.

-overlay still frame

-different music tracks for every mode in the game.

-works with all cabinet configurations (DMD can be positioned in the bottom text area if required)

-over 100 PuPCapture DMD images being monitored

Important! If you have ANY of the above PuP screens "rotated" in the PuP default settings (you shouldn't though), then those same screens will also be rotated in this PuP-Pack!

=====================================================

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:

http://vpuniverse.com/forums/topic/3651-sambuild32-beta-thread/

PINUP SYSTEM (1.3.7 or higher):

PinUP System 1.3.6 FULLY installed and PinUP Player setup. (The Pinup Popper front-end is not required for PuP-Packs, for those who use another front-end)

https://vpinball.com/VPBdownloads/pinup-system-player-and-popper-front-end-install/

If you are upgrading from 1.3.5 or lower, you MUST first update to 1.3.6 and install the new dmddevicePUP.dll that comes with the 1.3.6 update, into your VPinMAME folder!

http://www.nailbuster.com/wikipinup/doku.php?id=release_notes

Then you need to update FROM 1.3.6 TO to 1.3.7 (until a newer update comes out). If these updates are not properly installed, then this PuP-Pack will not work correctly! (make sure there are no blocked files)

http://www.nailbuster.com/pinupdates/PinUPSystem_update_1_3_7.zip

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 Batman the Dark Knight bdk_294 (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.

- have "Ignore Rom CRC Errors" enabled. (to allow the use of a custom rom)

DMDs can now be ANY colour (or DMD colour mod) you want! This is a NEW feature with Freezy 1.71 files installed! There is no longer a requirement to have your DMD a specific colour for PuP-Packs in VPX!

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 Batman the Dark Knight 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 Batman the Dark Knight TABLE:

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: 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" "bdk_294" folder (if that folder already exists).

Copy the PuP-Pack "bdk_294" folder from the archive into your PUPVideos folder.

OST Movie Music To enable the PuP-Tracks music:

if you don´t want to use the OST Music

-edit the bdk_294 PuP-Pack with the PuP-Pack Editor, and change Screen 4 (Music) to "Off". Then Save.And use your bdk_294 rom in VpinMame Roms folder that you already have

-you MUST use my custom "Muted Music Rom" version of the bdk_294.zip Rom file. Copy the bdk_294.zip to your VPinMAME Roms folder (backup your original bdk_294.zip file). This is required because SAM tables cannot have their music turned down or reduced by either VPX or the table's Service Menu. I made this custom version of the rom with all the game's music muted so it will allow only the PuP-Pack to play music for the game.

-run the PinUpPlayerConfigDisplays.bat in the "PinupSystem" folder, and make sure your Music screen "Default State" is set to "Hide Always" (Sound Only)

================================================

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 1.3.7 for this Pack to work "correctly"! Some videos may not be triggering, and the OST Music PuP-Tracks will NOT work correctly without that update! Full instructions for updating and the links are in the Description under REQUIREMENTS.

If your system is still stuttering, you can set the Topper2 (Screen8) to off in the PupPackeditor.

Or if you want to use the topper, set the screen1 (DMD-Text) to off. and then Screen 10 (Game Help) on Force Back.

This relieves the system and stuttering should stop.
