Have you guys used the 'SetDMD' program yet? It works great!

http://www.hyperspin...ighlight=setdmd

Anyway, I do have a related question. ROL is the entry that is supposed to contain a value of 1 in the registry. I have had to also change the value of ROR to 1 in order to display the DMD correctly. Anyone know why both would need to be 1? Just curious.

Thanks.

One will rotate 90 deg to the left, and one 90 deg to the right.
I came across a script once that rol=1 turned the dmd upside down when rotated left,
hence ror=1, i suppose rol=3 may have worked(if 3 = 270 deg rotate)

someone correct me if im wrong.

With the old ROM name the DMD does not rotate.

I need help on understanding on the X scale, Y scale, X offset and Y offset. Which one move the table Up, Down, Left and Right?

I'm trying get the new table at full rotate 270 screen with a perfect round bumper showing.

Hi,
just wanted to say i fixed it. I changed it in the script. Searched for the line Games and found the line with "rol" and changed it to "1".

How do I get the DMD to rotate in this version Jurrasic Park FS VP912


Ive searched for alot of words in the script file, but no luck.

The strange thing is that I don't find any "rol" in Lethal Weapon 3 FS_V1.1. Butt in this table the DMD is good. Thats confusing me. Lethal Weapon 3 link here


By the way; im playing the FS tables on my PC. I just rotate my monitor when i play FS tables. I also play 4:3 tables, so I can't use something that changes the DMD for all tables.



Thanks alot for trying to help me! Really want to learn this!!!

For Jurassic Park adding this code in line 80

.Games(Romset).Settings.Value("rol") = 1

Ty alot. It worked!!!

Now I must learn how to type to make it a little wider in 1920*1200

EDIT:

To make it wide I pasted this above line 80.

.Games(Romset).Settings.Value("dmd_pos_x") = 0
.Games(Romset).Settings.Value("dmd_pos_y") = 0
.Games(Romset).Settings.Value("dmd_width") = 170
.Games(Romset).Settings.Value("dmd_height") = 550

Ok for a DMD that must be rotated 90 degrees but what about 180??

The new Fish Tales: Fish Tales VP9 FS 1.02 again got DMD rotated 180 Degrees and I cannot find the line script to be changed.

Any Help please?

With the script , the DMD can only rotate to the right or left by 90 degrees (ror=1 or rol=1).
For Fish Tales, I added this code in line 61.

.Games(cGameName).Settings.Value("rol") = 1

I use one monitor and I don't need to rotate the DMD of 180 degrees.

hi Max, Thanks for your reply.

I am using a Full VP Cabinet and the DMD of this game is up side down. If I put the script that you gave me only rotates 90 degrees.

Any idea?

Thanks

Sorry, I have no idea.
Maybe a screen image can help to understand the problem.

You cant. You must rotate the monitor. You need to buy a monitor with this feature. Its really awsome, so do that! =)

The DMD is up side down probably because in the Windows registry ROL and ROR is 1.
To have only the ROL equal to 1, we must add also the right rotation equal to 0.

.Games(cGameName).Settings.Value("rol") = 1
.Games(cGameName).Settings.Value("ror") = 0

This should solve the problem.

Thank you for the instructions. I have been able to fix almost every table with DMD problems. One that has me stumped, however, is Dr. Dude. No matter what entries I add to the script, the DMD position remains unchanged. Has anyone been able to figure this one out (apparently Star Trek 25th Anniversary is also fix-resistant).

Just looked at DrDude... It isn't structured the same as most of the tables I have looked at (script wise), so something slightly different has to be done. It doesn't specify a cGameName variable, so the rom name has to be spelled out (for a simple one line fix that is) Assuming you want to rotate to the left, under "InitVPM()" add the line 'Controller.Games("dd_l2").Settings.Value("rol") = 1', you could probably also add that entry directly into the registry too.

Looking at Star Trek 25th (non b2s version), it doesn't look any different from a standard table, what's causing you problems with that one?

Thanks for all your help. You've helped set the rotation right for most of my tables. However, there are a few that I can not rotate. Some, such as Cyclone and Roller Coaster Tycoon, have normal scripting, but adding the "rol" line (not even necessary with RCT) has absolutely no effect. Both had the game name defined, so that isn't the problem this time. Others, such as High Roller Casino, have unusual scripting such that I can't figure out where to put the new line(s). I appreciate any help on this.

Search for the following parts of the respective scripts and make changes as highlighted in RED
