OMG! What have they done to Marilyn? She reminds me of the last Doctor Who episode...

Is there a way to load this UVP...and NOT have the jackpot on the 3rd screen rom display as well as on the 2nd screen backglass? I do not want it on the 3rd screen, only on the 2nd (backglass). I have the same problem with riverboat gamber.

Quite so! The shoulder especially. And is that an adam's apple? ;)

Cheers FD. Is the bonus display woking correctly on this UVP?

I think it was buggy on the previous UVP.

It gets even better :) .. for all cabinet (3 screen) enthousiasts among us I´ve just created a UVP with ONLY the bonus meter on the Backglass (2nd screen) and the normal displays (not using UVP) on the 3rd display.

Had to adjust the bonus meter on the BG image though while not positioned straight .. ;)

I`ll try and upload tomorrow ..

Cheers,
FD.

ps. the bonus meter is working correctly on this one .. ;)

The backglass just appears for a quick millisecond and then its black. The old one I used worked fine. There's is a 10MB difference on the backglass though, could this be the culprit?

I have the same exact problem. I've tried lowering the resolution but no difference.

The only difference noticed by using BG images >10Meg is that they do not show up within the HyperPin frontend when scrollin´ through the Tables available.
I tested & played the Table including UVP all through the night last night and today without any problem ..

Did you replace both UVP and BG image files or only one of both?

It could also be due to using another resolution than original that the 2x 16 digit displays, (I had to use and so placed invisibly at the top right corner) are fallin´ off the screen while using another resolution as the original, and so causing the error ..

Cheers,
FD.
