Single Monitor FS B2S Scoring Display



Version: 1.0.0
Category: Animated Backglasses

Author(s): Rosve

Description:
For Single Monitor B2S FS Users
-------------------------------------------------------
If you are playing FS B2S tables on a single screen setup, replace the tables backglass exe with this file to get a simplified score display on top of the playfield.

Should work with most B2S tables.
(Some tables are not using the default B2S template and might not display the score reel correctly)

well R.
followed the instructions.
moved the BG exec out of the table folder in TZ 911B2s and a few more tables.
replaced with the unrared single score exec in the table folder.
no score reels.
do we need to add something to the script?

In the script, look for the instruction "LaunchBackglass".
Change the name of the backglass to the new single monitor bg and check that the flag is set to True.

Don't forget to type in your screen resolution in ScreenRes.txt

The syntax is:
LaunchBackGlass "SingleMonitorFS",True

there is no launch BG in the script.

The 1 screen scoring display is only working with B2S V2.
If the script is missing the "LaunchBackglass" instruction then it is not using B2S V2.
Most of my tables and all others tables are built with V2.

The ones not working with the 1 screen display are:
Captain Fantastic
Sky Kings
Pro Pool

Those tables are not up to standard regarding playfield design or graphics and I would really want to start all over with them before doing any work on updating the B2S backglasses to the latest version.

King Tut by Kruge99 is also not working with the 1 screen display (until he decides to release his latest version of it)


You should really download the latest version of Time Zone. It plays much better than the older version that you have.

>>>You should really download the latest version of Time Zone. It plays much better than the older version that you have. <<<<<<<<

ok, i will chnage it.
great job recreating the table.
the settings do not play like the real TZ table i played on.
i dunno where some of the videos came from.
they play too fast beyond the eye can see.
that is not the real pb i played.
tune the tables to a level or a little below what the eye can see.
the eye is not designed for high speed.

how about a version for everybody with my settings to play close to the real TZ i played?

Maybe you should try the newest release before commenting on it.
