Russ, can you tell me if uvp and b2s will still work after the regular dll is replaced by the one for the dmd? I would like to still have the scores in the right places on the backglass and only use the dmd for games with dmd animation.

I am number 5 for a dmd and I have your v1 board. I wanted to see how v1 works before getting v2. Friends have asked me to help build them a cab so a can pass v1 to someone and keep v2 for myself.

Thanks,
Mike

just finished integrating v2 to pinmame and its amazing :) colours are much deeper :) and it runs insanely smooth and 100% flicker free. i don't think you would be able to tell the difference between this and a real pinball machine :) definitely an improvement on the first version :)

i don't think there will be a v3 as there is nothing else i can do to make this any better :) its perfect :)
next project is getting that plasma driver board finished :)


i think the .dll still works with uvp and b2s but you cant disable the display using the pindmd table flag, this is not really my area so im not 100% ill ask snots when he's about, or another forum member who runs those clients might have more information (i don't use them my self)

Hi there,

I've applied for the V2 on the site somewhen last week. Is there a way to know if I could catch the train? :)

Great news! Thank you Russ!
Now, I just need to replace the multiple voltage DMD Plasma I bought instead of the 12V. :)

@Russ,

Sorry for the stupid question.
Is there any 128x32 Plasma DMD running on 5V? I seem to remember having seen a web page listing all DMDs compatible with the PinDMD, but can not find it anymore.

Thanks.

Oh and Russ, with the newest plugin development allowing the use of a DMD in FP expect a few more orders than what you may have been expecting.

I guess there are two voltage versions, 65 and 5. We want the 5v correct?

EDIT: 5V Amber X-Pin ordered :)
