I remember once (I think it was Destruk) someone told how to increase the brighness of the displays for tables like Medieval Madness. I can't remember what the settings are though. Any help?

Start up a table and once it's running hit the F1 key. You can change the intensity settings there. I believe this will change the display for all games you play.

With F1, the display settings are saved on a game by game basis. To change it for all future games you haven't played yet, you want to run vpm setup and reset/set defaults there.

There was a certain value to them, like 60, 25, 70 or something like that. I just want to be able to see the letters when I post my initials for the high score without squinting at the screen.

I prefer 75, 50, 10. Not sure how accurate that is though.
