PLEASE REMEMBER TO SAY ‘THANKS’ THE FIRST POST IN THE SUPPORT TOPIC BY CLICKING ON THE ‘THANKS’ BUTTON. THIS IS ALWAYS APPRECIATED!
This special VIDEO backglass was made specifically for Siggi’s new Iron Man (Stern 2010) VPX table mod.
Siggi did an amazing job on this graphics mod (a serious improvement over the original) and I decided to do something special for him and fellow cab owners.
The original tables backglass was a single fluorescent light that just illuminated the backglass translite and I wanted a totally difference backglass for this special table.
What I wanted to do with this VIDEO backglass was not possible with a b2s file (fire and spark fx) without either a huge file size or the risk of slowing down the tables gameplay – ie: ball stutter.
That’s why I opted to make VIDEO version that continuously loops, instead. The drastically reduced any lag or stutter that would happen with a “busy” bs2 backglass file.
Backglass Videos were created in 2 formats (sizes) and colors – yellow and blue in both HD (1920 x 1080) and 2k (2200 x 1238) resolutions.
I also made a couple topper videos as well – which are also included in 1280 x 390, 1280 x 540, 1280 x 720 scales / sizes.
Backglass videos, wheels, and topper videos have been split into separate .zip files so you only need to download what you want / need.

HOW TO USE VIA PINBALLX :
1.) Make sure you name / rename the VPX table a completely different name than any other version of the table you may have. So instead of naming the table Iron Man (Stern 2010).vpx – name the table IM-Siggi-Mod (Stern 2010).vpx – or something else creative. This will prevent VPX from trying to “match” the b2s file to the table when it loads. You should NOT rename any pirates b2s to that file name. It should load without any backglass present because there is no backglass named that special name.
2.) Load PinballX’s game manager and select “Add New” table. Use the manager to add the IM-Siggi-Mod (Stern 2010) table as the table name. You can set the Description to whatever you want … Using the Import pulldown menu, and select Backglass – and load the backglass .MP4 file. Load the other stuff if you want at this time, i.e.: Wheel Image, Topper, etc.
3.) IMPORTANT: Directly under the Table name and Description for this table in PinballX, there is a row of check boxes. Make sure “Hide Backglass” is UNCHECKED. This will keep the backglass video running when load the table through PinballX and keep it on the screen looping while you are playing the table.
4.) Load PinballX, scroll through to this particular table, and go ahead and load it … and go PLAY pinball!
That’s it!
Similar styled front ends can use “basically” the same process.

You did a wonderful job on this.
It fits the table style perfectly.
The only downside is i don’t use backglasses in my cab.

Fair enough.
Just played your Iron Man mod for about an hour. Terrific job on it.
Does it only work with the Vault Editon II rom?

My respect level for you has gone down 2/1000th of one percentage point. 1 demerit point for no working backglass and another point for no magna save buttons. Luckily you aren’t in danger of falling off the respect cliff with a current score of 99.575 (we won’t speak of the other infractions today)
Super job on the cab, I used to be a big fan of the Johnny Blaze Ghost Rider comics back in the 70’s. Wish I’d kept those! You have good taste, that’s a great idea as far as a theme

These are very old pictures of my cab, i have now real magnasave and a lockdownbar button.
But even on these old pictures are magnasaves they are hidden in the lockdownbar.
You can move the lockdownbar left, right and front, i used this as a nudge for Pinball FX3.
As i said very odl pictures from 2015.
I hope your respect for me will rise again.

Open game manager, and the listing where you have the table loaded, use the ‘Import’ pull down and select Backglass, and import it. Then under the Table name / description, make sure ‘Hide Backglass’ is UNCHECKED. Make sure in your tables folder you have NO directb2s (backglass file) listed as the same name as the table.
That’s all.

I have a problem with your video backglass ! I can’t select a .mp4 file in Game Manager with the “Import directB2s” button. How do you do that ?
