This back glass modification is based on the great work of bassgeige.
My contribution is only a minor one in that i duplicated the existing "Twin Jackpots" display to the area above the grill.
 
This modification is for all those who have a real cabinet with a real grill with real speakers surrounding a DMD.
In such a setup you probably want to see the B2S without the B2S' grill but with the game's essential "Twin Jackpots" display.
Since this display usually resides on the B2S grill, you normally would have to enable the B2S' grill to see the display - which has the nasty side effect that you have 2 grills with double speakers...
 
Hence, i duplicated the "Twin Jackpots" display to the B2S area above the grill, so you can disable the B2S grill but still enjoy the display.
This of course results in a back glass which does no longer adhere to 100% authenticity.
 
If you use this B2S, make sure to edit this B2S settings (by pressing 's' on the backglass) and use the following settings:
- GRILL = Hidden
- B2S DMD = Hidden
Also, you should edit the table's script and enable the external DMD (controller.hidden = false)

I hope you like my choice of the location for this additional display on the original back glass.

If you are interested, I have created a few more back glass files for tables with additional displays in a similar manner (e.g Taxi, Whirlwind)

If you are aware of other back glasses that could need that kind of rework, let me know.

I am happy to contribute my minor and negligible parts to all the great work of pinball tables and real back glass authors.


Enjoy!




I am glad you integrated a suitable modification for your needs. Please include your name in the authors list too. Thanks.

Excellent stuff!! I hope someone gets around to doing this with all the other tables for those of us with proper DMD cabs

As i said: "If you are aware of other back glasses that could need that kind of rework, let me know."

Thank you very much Noam for your idea! Your idea is now as an optimized position wise version and 1:1 authentic to the original version as separate mod preserved: http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=11312
