You can find the code in the script somewhere around line 880, it looks like this:

 

If keycode = RightMagnaSave Then 

ContrastSetting = ContrastSetting + 1

If ContrastSetting > 7 Then ContrastSetting = 7 End If

If ContrastSetting=0 or ContrastSetting=2 or ContrastSetting=4 or ContrastSetting=6 Then ChangeGlow(True) Else ChangeGlow(False) End If

ColorGradeFlash()

OptionPrim.image = "contrastsetting" & ContrastSetting : OptionPrim.visible = 1 : OptionOpacity = 0 : OptionTimer.enabled = True

End If

If keycode = LeftMagnaSave Then 

ContrastSetting = ContrastSetting - 1

If ContrastSetting < 0 Then ContrastSetting = 0 End If

If ContrastSetting=0 or ContrastSetting=2 or ContrastSetting=4 or ContrastSetting=6 Then ChangeGlow(True) Else ChangeGlow(False) End If

ColorGradeFlash()

OptionPrim.image = "contrastsetting" & ContrastSetting : OptionPrim.visible = 1 : OptionOpacity = 0 : OptionTimer.enabled = True

End If

 

If you want to disable it, put a ' in front of all these lines.You can still change the contrast with the setting in the beginning of the script.

I am not able to start this table Diner of fluper 1, this message appears Machine 'diner_14 (Diner (LA-4)) finished before initialized, check the rom patch or rom file!

[Fusionwerks]

Because your missing the Rom for the table. Google: diner_14 rom. Download the zip and put it in visual pinball/vpinmame/roms folder. Leave it zipped

Is this your first VPX game?

[Maicon]

So, I already have the rom, I already did all this process but still this message appears, other tables open normal

Sure I'm wrong, but isn't it "diner_l4" rather than "diner_14" ? (a "l" instead of a "1")

I wrote wrong excuses, but the rom is yes l14

[batch]

Are you sure you have the rom "diner_l4" in your "VPinMAME / roms" folder ?

 

If yes, perhaps it's corrupted, so you can try to remove it from your "roms" folder, and to download it again

[flupper1]

And if that is not working,where did you download the rom from?

The link on this site is: https://www.vpforums...ds&showfile=948
If that one is not working, maybe try the ipdb one: https://www.ipdb.org...81/diner_l4.zip

(Or if you tried the ipdb one, try the one on this site)

Fantastic table! Is there a way of adjusting rom sound on this table?

[Thalamus]

I first thought I should just refer you to @ta2686 guides on located here https://www.vpforums...ials&article=44

But, I see that Diner isn't among the tables mentioned. And since I'm not able to test this right now - I don't really know if this is the procedure or if Williams System 11C is different.

 

If the sound from the rom is too high - you can press F12 and adjust the VPM volume from that dialog box. I've done it for a few older Sterns. Set them to -10 I think it was. But, I don't think I've ever had any reason to adjust this table. It might however be that you want to look into MJR' tool - PinVol, where you can change the output from any table differently as it loads. You're not specific to why you want to change the sound volume.

Rom sound is a bit distorted and louder on this table. Will check out Pinvol. Thanx!

[xenonph]

When table is running, click on dmd with mouse and then click the Tilde key ` (The key to left of the 1 key)

This will bring up sound options that can be toggled with the arrow keys.

There are 4 volume settings.

When the menu first comes up, hit the down arrow and you will find a volume setting that you can increase with right arrow key, or decrease with left arrow key.

(As seen in pic.)

When done with that hit the down arrow to find 2nd sound setting. 

Adjust to your liking.

There is also a 3rd sound setting if you press down arrow one more time.

 

When you are done adjusting just click the Tilde key again.

 

Hope this helps you.

Carry on.

@Xenonph is often right, he might be this time too. But, as a added info. Take LOTR as an example. If you crank the rom volume too high, because of the emulation not being perfect it will start to distort on a relative low volume compared to others. It might very well be that my cab has more hardware than yours, so I'm able to do things you can't. But, in my case the solution to these problems is to never crank the rom volume on top for the rom. Instead I use the amps and then in a combination with pinvol I'm able to adjust it pretty even table by table - plus the VPM trick with those old Stern roms that is way too high for even PinVol.
