Hello guys,

I'm playing FP on a single monitor setup in arcade mode. However the DMD stays blank/yellow and doesnt show anything. It works fine in normal mode.

My Specs are:

Windows 7 64Bit
4Gb RAM
ATI Radeon HD 5670
Athlon II X3 450 Processor 3.2 GHz

Thanks for your help

Hi,

I think arcade mode is for 2 screens not for 1.

maybe on [site reference removed] more info !?

[zocken23]

It generally does work with one screen only, the DMD is visible but stays blank/yellow.

Unfortunately your link was deleted before i could read it. If you were referencing to the other big future pinball site, dont bother. I checked it out too...but no luck either

Hi.

Did you ever find a resolution for having the DMD blank when in arcade mode?

I REALLY LIKE ARCADE MODE VIEW.

Any updates on this specific issue with DMD being blank while in arcade mode?

 

When I click on 'disable GLSL Shaders' the DMD actually lights up in orange dots, not text.

It can be fixed here's how.

 

Delete the backglass DMD or HUD DMD (make a note of it's name - MyDMD2...or something).  Now create a new DMD with the same name but on the playfield.  Place this new DMD on the Apron layer and you'll now have a fully functional DMD in Arcade Render mode with a single monitor.

 

Merry Christmas!
