do you put the no dmd code into the heavy metal table file or just into the general tables folder
I installed FlexDMD, it is working except this table and all of my ultradmd's have moved to the top right corner of the playfield instead of where i had them on the second screen.
Is there a fix? i also get a notice " please be aware that this game's sound emulation is not working 100% properly!" when launching, how can I remove this?

you just put the VBS file into the tables folder beside the table file
when VPX sees a VBS same name as the table, it defers to it for code changes.
The table itself remains unchanged

Hey buddy I just installed "flexdmd" as well and all of my ultra dmd tables have the dmd on the playfield. I think the coordinates to change it are in the registry and I havent had much time to mess with it. I will work on trying to fix it, when I do I'll post it here unless you find it first.
Looks great. I have been trying to get this table to work for 3 days now with no luck. Table tries to start, then avter about 2 seconds it shuts down. The no dmd version works great. I have Flex dmd installed an all my other tables (the JP Salas tables) work great with flex dmd. Anyone have any ideas?

I would make sure you actually have flexDMD and freezys dmd extensions installed and registered correctly.
Take the HvyMtl.DMD folder and rename it to HvyMtl.DMD.1
Then launch table.
Does table still exit?
If so, seems like a bad install of flexDMD or it isnt registered or something.
Better to use the support thread for help than here
awesome thanks

Still no luck, FlexDMD is properly installed and registered. Works great with all of JP Salas' tables. ROM is good, freezy dmd all good also . Table starts beeps once then shuts down. Oh, well. Thanks for the reply. I'll just run it with the no dmd option. I have over 1000 VPX tables up and running.
