  • Favorite Pinball: How many can i have?

Thank you, I will go check. I will have to dig a bit deeper to understand what the freezy and DMDDEVICE.ini is, but I am sure I am not the first, so information is out there ;) Love this part, digging for answers, learning a little bit all the time :D

 

 

 

c:\where ever vpx is\vpinmame\dmddevice.ini

 

with VPX NOT in exclusive fullscreen, launch a table that actually has a DMD, hit F1 when it appears
uncheck show vpm dmd
check use external DLL

click OK

quit table back to editor and relaunch

 

DMD display will appear that you can grab and drag around and resize (and other things too)

when it is in the place you and it and the size you want it
right click and either pick save position for gamename (useful is 2 screen setup

or save position global (useful if you have dedicated DMD screen and you want all DMD's to be same spot and same size etc


If you feel the need to empty your wallet in my direction, i don't have any way to receive it anyways

Spend it on Hookers and Blow
