      The UltraDMD I don’t believe actually has any real color assigned in the script.

      If you download the latest version of the table and this PuP-Pack, it does come with support for a PuP “DMD” (support for 4×1 LCD window), which is definitely full color, and looks much better than the UltraDMD. And I’ll be working on an upgrade to my end of that later this year to provide additional options for the PuP DMD.

        This has to be one of my favourite tables, and this PuP-Pack makes it even better. Sadly I am only using a 2 screen set up and so it looks like I cannot use it for now :(

          I wish I had time to make a 2 screen version. I’d be fine with just movies and a fancy dmd

            Super easy to do.

            If you have a “square” backglass screen (not 16:9), then you can have the pup-pack on the top 3/4 of the screen, and use the bottom 1/3rd for your DMD.

             

            If you have a 16:9 backglass, then you can edit the Overlay image (the castle) to cut out a bottom portion to allow the DMD to display there. You can even add a “frame” in the spot for the DMD. Many 2 screen ppl have done this.

             

            You can also create a custom copy of pinupplayer.ini (setup for your BG to be on the top 3rd while retaining the 16:9 ratio… or have the pupdmd on the bottom,etc). This file goes into the pup-pack folder. Once the table and PuP is started…it looks to see if that file is there and will use it if found to setup your pup screens as defined in that file (only for this pup-pack).

                Having the movies played to the right a bit, not in the castle properly. How do I fix this?4E96EC44-C0AD-4C4E-831C-EFC77744C2825172F7AA-1A5F-4536-A53E-31DC7A073071

                      Trying to play using the MOTU-PuP-Pack-1.1-No-Text-on-BG on a 2 screen setup and i keep getting white text on the playfield for scoring etc.

                      Kinda new to PUP is there something i need to remove?

                      Thank you.

                       

                      EDIT: Sorted this, turned off pup DMD, dropped the files into PUP for use, in script of the table made sure I am using Ultradmd (1) then took the Grayskull pup overlay and modified it after making a backup, cutting out a 512×128 (my ultradmd set size) for the Ultradmd and adjusted in game to fit, as suggested.

                      Thanks for the Pup Pack!

                      Grayskull Overlay

                        If you have a 16:9 Backglass… you would want the Text on BG pup-pack version.

                        You also need to disable PUP Post DMD in the table script, as that is the white letters you are seeing.

                          Thought I had the rom but I guess I don’t. I cannot find it again and vpuniverse is offline.

                          Can someone please point me to another link with it?

                          Thank you

                            This is an original table…similar to FP tables…and threfore doesn’t use a rom at all. All the code is in the table script.

                              Ok, when I closed and opened it worked second time. But backglass then went behind my windows screen. Is that a setting to bring to front? I have not changed anything in pinup/popper settings.

                                If you are playing on a single screen… then this is your only option to tr to get it to work.

                                    In that case… no you dont need pup-packs on top…but you should not have any windows displaying on your Backglass when running anything vpin related as pup-pack layers will get pushed behind them. If you have a 16:9 backglass screen…keep in mind you may not see the DMD completely because of the bottom of the castle picture. You may need to edit that for your own usage.

                                      Just seems odd that the few other pup packs I have play fine and don’t fall behind my open windows screen on my backglass.

                                        Nothing odd about it. You just don’t understand how pup-packs work yet.

                                        Not all pup-packs are made the same. Some have multiple video layers like motu or jaws, and some of those video layers will need to be pushed “behind” the more top pup layers.

                                        Others pup-packs only have one pup-layer that is pushed “on top” of all other windows so they will work fine.

                                        even if you weren’t using pup-packs, i would still say you shouldnt have any windows open on your backglass when running vpin stuff.

                                          I am dense. How would I launch when I in VPX and not have that screen on BG and then minimize when I press play?

                                          I was not able to get Jaws to work either, but I know I missed something in the pinevent setup on that one.

                                            It’s the same problem for both. Easy solution.

                                            Move your FP and VPX Editor window to your playfield screen and run it all from there. Then when the table runs, the editor won’t be in the way and they will be under your game window and not the backglass.

                                            When run from a front-end… both will get minimized automatically when using the right command.

                                             

                                            Yes…. it may be rotated and not fun to work from…. but thats what you need to do. Everyone needs to to do this. Its normal.

                                             

                                            For FP and PinEvent…. you still have to be sure you don’t have the FP Backglass and Arcade mode enabled and displaying when running those tables (the FP BG may obscure the Pinevent BG). Again I detail methods of how you can do that from a front-end as well.
