This may be a really dumb question i am a noob but just starting out . Is there a way to have a generic Default db2s backglass for all tables in VPX?

For VP Originals or tables with no backglass

A basic dB2S is doable or an already working autostart dB2S does work too. The other question is the name scheme so that it is triggered for every table. I never did the test but one single character that is the same as prefix may be enough. If you use a frontend it is also possible.

Why would you not want a matching backglass? It’s not hat hard to set up and some backglasses are pretty awesome..and your first responder makes some great ones!

I modded the b2s server to only show a backglass if the name matches exactly.  That could also be used to match a name exactly or show a default b2s.  maybe I can whip up something if you want

This ever happen ? I use blank tables with the letters of the alphabet for pinballY for skipping back and forward. Think I'd like some type of backglass for the letters so was wondering if a default backglass was around or is it easy to do one that won't need to do any pinball scoring and stuff ?

PinballY does come with a default backglass image already... if you don't like it, you can replace the corresponding .png file with the one you want.
