Yes we need some videos
I never thought about adding a splash screen delay. I can add this option to the firmware and make it configurable in the settings config tool. This will require a firmware update but this process is extremely simple for pinDMD3 (click like 2 buttons lol)
The editor wont have all features of colorDMD it will be only able to colour static frames / animations ie frames that are not dynamic. All the hardwork is actually sitting down and selecting / colouring the frames hehe (thats upto you guys lol)
You will be able to use [Pin2DMD uses stolen and/or infringes IP. PinDMD is the genuine product ;) ] project files. And pinDMD3 project files will work with [Pin2DMD uses stolen and/or infringes IP. PinDMD is the genuine product ;) ].
The pinDMD3 road map is:
- Full rgb support with xpinball/xdmd (16 shade currently)(code offered by lucky1 to enable this)
- Full rgb support with future pinball (16 shade currently)
- pinball arcade support (no response from them yet)
- pinballfx(zen) support (no response from them)
- pro pinball(timeshock) (integration in progress)
- create dmd frame editor to colour games (ideas stage lol)
If any one else has any ideas or suggesting please ask
Also i have a full integration kit to allow any one to integrate with pinDMD3 (simple .dll with .lib and .h for compiling) So please include it in any home brew projects
or crazy ideas you might have. It is extremely easy to get up and running.
Regarding real pinball support i have decided to sit back from this for the time being due to legal reasons and uncertainties over patents etc.. I will put all my time / effort into vPin where i am legally able to do what we want!
