Is there a (d)B2S available somewhere for this table? I'd like to put it in my cabinet.

 

This was one of those boards I remember seeing in an arcade, but it always seemed to be down or broken and I never got a chance to play it. At least I can do it now on desktop.

Also searching for a B2S but unable to find one on any site.

Credits are not displayed when playing Aztec on desktop. The credits are registered and allow for play, but the credits box is blank. The high score to date is slightly off-center. All other info is displayed as expected.

 

Anyone have a clue how to fix this? Obviously not a game breaker, but I'm sure that the intent was to display the credits.

Credits are displaying fine here using DT POV. And HighScore is lined up properly.

You can click the Backdrop tab on left of editor, and right click with mouse on the 2 boxes circled in pic, and Unlock them so they can be moved.

The lower box in circle is HighScore box.

See if you can move the box in editor to line it up.

Whichever direction you move the HighScore box to line it up, I am guessing you will need to move the Credits box same direction as HighScore box, to line it up on your screen.

 

To help you line them up click the "View" tab at top of editor, and click "Playfield Image / Backdrop".

This way you can see where they need to be placed exactly to line them up.

Not having much luck. The high score is truncated on the bottom & left. I can move it around, but it remains truncated. I even moved it to the other side of the table. I could see it and it was chopped off exactly as it had been in the usual spot. As before, I can't see the credits at all.

sounds to me like your windows display scaling is not set to 100%. I just tried this game on my not-so-common 1920x1200 monitor and its all perfectly aligned.

I double checked and it is at 100%. This is an odd one.

Hmm. Could it be your video card settings are overriding windows settings? Nvidia cards at least have settings for this. 

The other option is to use a b2s backglass instead and manbearpig made up a nice one for aztec https://vpuniverse.c...-williams-1976/

Then you can make it look like this on the desktop.

all you need these days is the b2s server updated to at least 1.4 https://vpuniverse.c...ckglass-server/ and by editing the screenres.txt you can size and place the backglass anywhere you like. You can also use the screenresidentifier.exe included to visually size and position the backglass.
