Experience the power of Grayskull with my all-new “Masters of the Universe (VPX) PuP-Pack – Royal Boob Edition”. I took my Future Pinball Mastered mod, and gave it the power of Pinup Player!
Featuring:
– overlay Castle Grayskull image
– background “sky” layer that changes for each multiball mode, and also will strike lightning when you press the left and right flippers during normal gameplay modes. (it will delay between lightning strikes, so don’t go crazy expecting a nutty lightning storm)
– Castle “eyes” layer will glow and change colour for each game mode, and some game events
– Castle “mouth” layer will play videos for various in game events and modes.
– 2 packs to choose from: “Text on the Backglass”, and “No Text on the Backglass”
– new “Text on Topper or Under” screen “option”. Plays videos of all the animated text (and logo) with a nice castle stone backdrop, on your Topper or Under screen. Toppers are 21:9 (1920×822), and Unders are a wider ratio (1920×562)
– new PuPDMD and PostDMD files by LynnInDenver. These will allow to use a modern LCD displays for PuP based scoring with animated backgrounds. You can use these to display your scores instead of UltraDMD. PuPDMD is for LCD DMDs and PostDMD is for full-size 16:9 modern Stern-style displays.
A video preview of the PuP-Pack with the VPX table can be seen here:
System: Visual Pinball X (version 10.5+)
Credits:
– PuP-Pack was created by: TerryRed
– the original (stunning) Castle Grayskull image was made by Ankit Bhatnagar.
https://www.artstation.com/artwork/Vvynn
– The Castle Grayskull image was edited and made into an Overlay frame by Tarcisio Caleiro.
– Topper and Under Castle Stone backdrop video by Tarcisio Caleiro.
– The video effects were created by AA VFX:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCilPIl-SwFbtsoH8WLnvlfA
– The Visual Pinball X conversion (of Rom’s excellent Future Pinball original table) was converted by randr.
– Pinup Player (the software that plays the active video backglass) was created by Nailbuster.
– PuPDMD and PostDMD files were created by LynnInDenver
This PuP-Pack uses the following PuP-screens:
Screen 2 – Backglass (Underlay Video Layer)
Screen 7 – Other1/Backglass 2 (Mouth Videos)
Screen 8 – Other2/Topper 2 (Eyes)
Screen 0 – Topper (Text) “Optional”
Overlay – Castle Frame Layer (assigned to screen 2)
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!
2 Screen Users: Please note that I DO NOT have a 2 screen setup for this pack.There simply isn’t enough space for a DMD and the videos with Text,etc to work properly. The Overlay image can be edited to make room for the DMD if you want (remove the bottom area of the Castle mouth). Combining that with the “No Text on BG” PuP-Pack would be your best option.
=============================================================
REQUIREMENTS: IMPORTANT!
Masters of the Universe (VPX) table: This PuP-Pack will only work with the VPX version of the table found at this link. You need the latest update to use the PuPDMD and PostDMD files.
https://vpinball.com/VPBdownloads/masters-of-the-universefp-conversion/
Visual Pinball X 10.5 All in One or higher installed (this is to include newest B2S Server, and UltraDMD):
https://vpinball.com/VPBdownloads/categories/vpx-exes/
PINUP SYSTEM (1.3.7 or higher):
PinUP System 1.3.7 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/
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.
http://www.nailbuster.com/wikipinup/doku.php?id=puppack_troubleshoot
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 the VPX “Masters of the Universe” 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 “Masters of the Universe” 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” “motu” folder (if that folder already exists).
Choose either “Text on Backglass”, or “No Text on Backglass” PuP-Pack.
Copy the PuP-Pack “motu” folder from the PuP-Pack zip archive (of your choice) into your “PUPVideos” folder.
Optional “Text on Topper or Under Videos”:
This “option” plays videos of all the animated text (and logo) with a nice castle stone backdrop, on your Topper or Under screen. This can be used with any version of the PuP-Pack.
Copy the files from your choice of the Topper (21:9 ratio) or Under (wider ratio) zip, into the “PUPVideos” “motu” folder, overwriting all files! (you must copy all files for it to work).
Note: Adding the “Topper – Under option” will overwrite all of the pup-pack settings! (as its needed for the topper videos to work). If you have a custom layout (different CustomPos, etc) of the pup-pack that was previously installed… make sure you backup your current screens.pup file for the pup-pack so you can copy over your settings to the new screens.pup file.
NEW! Optional PuPDMD and PostDMD files from LynnInDenver:
– new PuPDMD and PostDMD files by LynnInDenver. These will allow to use a modern LCD displays for PuP based scoring with animated backgrounds. You can use these to display your scores instead of UltraDMD. PuPDMD is for LCD DMDs and PostDMD is for full-size 16:9 modern Stern-style displays.
-simply copy the DMD and FONTS folders from the Jaws_PupDMD_PostDMD.zip to your “motu” pup-pack folder. Then choose which option you want in the table script.
-if using PuPDMD, make sure your PuP DMD display is setup correct in your default PuP Display settings.
-if using PostDMD, make sure your PuP Music display is setup correct in your default PuP Display settings (this is used for size and position reference).
“EYES” of Castle Grayskull:
– if you don’t want the Castle Grayskull “eyes” to change (and stay black), then edit the PuP-Pack and set Screen 8 to OFF, and SAVE the PuP-Pack.
Alternate “Castle Mouth” Default Background Videos:
– the default “Background” Castle Mouth video that will play (when no other videos are playing) is located in the “Background – BG” folder. If you wish to use another video instead, I have included other videos you can use. They are located in the “Background – BG – Alternates” folder. Simply replace the video file in “Background – BG” with your preferred video file from the “Background – BG – Alternates” folder.
================================================
Make your own “Castle Mouth” and “Sky Glow” Default Background Videos:
– in the “Background – BG – Alternates” folder, I have also included the transparency files I used for creating the nice “shadowed” Castle Mouth videos, as well as the “Glow” for the Sky videos. You can use them with your favorite Video Editor to create your own videos to use if you want!
Note:
“Castle Mouth” videos “must” be 1280×960, mp4, 30fps
“Sky Glow” videos “must” be 1920×1080, mp4, 30fps
This is to make sure they are in the same format as the other videos used. If they are in a different resolution or format, then you will get an ugly “blink” between each video, and it will look like ass.
================================================
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.
For other issues with getting a PuP-Pack to work, refer to the wiki:
http://www.nailbuster.com/wikipinup/doku.php?id=puppack_troubleshoot
================================================
NOTE: There WILL be additional versions of the PuP-Pack coming that will support Topper and Under setups. This will most likely have ALL Text being displayed on a Topper – Under instead of the Backglass. Keep an eye out for that!

I recorded this using a dollar store “bendy” cell phone clip and my cell phone. Works pretty good!

Here are some screenshots of the various modes. You can see how the different PuP layers can change out the videos independently to allow for more flexibility.
The “Sky”, “Eyes”, “Mouth” each are their own PuP screen. The Castle is the Overlay image frame.

I have versions with and without the logo.

2 Screen Cabinet Users: Please note that I DO NOT have a 2 screen setup for this pack.There simply isn’t enough space for a DMD and the videos with Text,etc to work properly. Maybe when I add Topper support I will include a new Overlay frame for you guys to try.
Desktop single screen Users: I don’t think this pack can work correctly with a Borderless Fullscreen Desktop view setup…as the videos layers will get Forced Back behind the VPX window.

You don’t need to change anything in the pup-pack.
Are you sure you downloaded the newest version of the table. This pack won’t work without it.

So, this is happening… thank you Tarcisio Caleiro for the backdrop video.
An optional “text on Topper Only” Pack is coming that will have ALL text on the Topper – Under screen only, and the Castle Mouth Videos have no text on them.
I’ll try to add another 2 screen version with simple DMD frame on the overlay as an option to use with No Text on the mouth videos as well. Nothing fancy looking.

Thanks a lot for sharing your hard work! And again also thanks to Nailbuster for the PUP System.

Not sure what I am doing wrong with this one. Have the newest version of the table. Using the Text on BG version. I don’t get the Castle overlay and also no videos work. Every other Pup-Pack I have works fine, Tron, Batman, F14, Stranger Things, etc. I do see the background sky layer and also He-Man and the sword animation is moving. Other than that no video or Castle overlay.
Something else worth mentioning is PinUpDisplay goes not responding after / while playing the table and then I have to manually kill it.
Made sure I was using the new table, looked in the script and it has mentions of the PuP-Pack. Plus I downloaded it like 3 times just to make sure :).
Thanks,
Nick
