Hi!

 

No matter what I do the pinmame DMD shows up. 

I have tried disabling it. Putting it back on and disabling it. I have reinstalled pinmame 32 and 64 and made sure the default settings are to not show the DMD.

 

I have been able to do this before. Is it something I am missing?

 

I also remember being able to right click on either the external dmd or the mame dmd to get some options. Right clicking doesn't seem to work on any of them. 

 

Do you have any tips?

 

Since I cant seem to embed an image here is a link.

If you can not right click it and see GAME SETTINGS as an option, then it may not be a pinmame DMD

could be external DLL dmd, or could be a 3 screen backglass DMD

 

For the external DLL, hit F1 and uncheck the box

By the way, if you are in exclusive full screen mode, you may not see the F1 dialog.

 

If it is a b2s DMD then right click the backglass, and you can set DMD hidden or visible
for both b2s and vpm

 

I do not think that a table having .hidden=0 will over ride vpm having show dmd being unchecked

 

Also your image does not exist, can not see it

Hi Gipskatten

 

I had a similar issue a while back, If I remember correctly in the end I had to delete the table out of the registry, thus forcing it to take the default settings and all worked well after that. Do ensure the default is there and it has the settings you want and correct DMD position. 

 

I hope this helps. 

 

Thanks

Dazlin
