It's not a rom table, it's a user developed table, so no dmd.The scoreboard is stuck on the.playfield. Here is what you do...go Download the directB2S version for and you'll have your backglass with score and FS table. http://www.vpforums....s&showfile=7480

The table has no dmd. Not sure what more I can say. You get a PF and a backglass with reel scores. No different than old school tables.

@Newer

 

You've got to look up for the original post where herweh announced his db2s server (not the post where he actually posts his server).

In that post you find the acdc table with db2s backglass.

In that table the DMD is removed from the table to the BG.

Of course because it's not a rom table you won't be able to use a real DMD

 

Table name is: ACDC_B2S_FS.vpt + ACDC_B2S_FS.directb2s

That's correct.

Nothing is going to happen on your 3th screen.

This does work on a 3 monitor set up with the scoring on the 3rd screen. Look at Herweh's post and set your offset correctly and it will all work out.

Hey guys,

I found this post as I was looking for a way to get the DMD/counter on my third monitor.  Changing the ScreenRes Editor did the trick.

 

However, for some reason on Tales of the Arabian Nights (any VP version I have tried), the DMD does not stay on my third monitor.  It did prior to changing the ScreenRes Editor for the non-ROM tables, like above.  Now it doesn't.

 

The TOTAN table now shows the DMD on the third monitor when I first launch the tables, but quickly disappears.

 

If I change the script table options from 3 to 1, the DMD will stay on the third monitor...but the Backglass does no appear at all.  I have tried changing various B2S settings in the script (like I have on all B2S tables), but cannot seem to get the BG and DMD working together.

 

Again, this only became an issue when I changed the ScreenRes Editor and it only appears to be an issue with this table.

 

Can anyone please help me figure this out?

Thanks for the reply!  I changed my res as you have it, but still have the same issue.  Ultimately, it looks like the issue is with having anything other than all 0 for LED Display width, height, X and Y Offset.

 

When these are all set to 0, the TOTAN DMD works great, but all of my non-rom based tables have the counters on the backglass (second monitor).  When I change these to what had before, the TOTAN DMD disappears, but the non-rom based tables have the counters on the third DMD monitor.

 

This is very strange, since it does not seem to affect the other DMD tables.

 

What else can I look to try?

The backglass in your link did the trick, thanks!  Strangely, I had the same issue with a rom table, World Cup.  When I changed the backglass to a different one, the backglass now shows up along with the DMD.

 

Thanks for the help!
