Table High Scores – Multi-column and Scrolling Video Scripts

[sharkus]

I created a few scripts to improve the experience with high scores being displayed when tables are being selected.  I have a 3 screen setup with a 1080p full dmd, so I wanted to have the high scores displayed on the DMD area.

Tables with only a few high scores work fine with the high score batch file (https://www.nailbuster.com/wikipinup/doku.php?id=high_scores_setup) , but any more than 8-10 lines and the text ends up being too small to read.  I’ve solved this by breaking up the text into multiple columns, or generating a video file with scrolling scores.  I also have a small script that reformats UltraDMD and PostIt scores to be more consistent.

The scripts are written in Python, so that may be a negative for some.  More info can be found here: https://github.com/sharkusk/pinup-popper-scripts

Here’s an example of the scrolling video:
