New guy here. Wanted to play the newer TimeLord (addicted to 3.0, so wanted to try the latest version.

I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to get the DMD to show up in the correct place.

All pertinent software is updated- Flex(can't get the latest due to virus threat triggering, so got the one before), DMDext32/64, B2Sserver32/64, VPX10.8. Screenres.txt shows all screens in proper locations.

VirtualPinballX, I can just hit a button, choose external DMD, or physically move it and Bob's your uncle.
10.8 seems to have the DMD stuck with the B2S. No option to change it, move it, nothing.

TIA for the guidance.

Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure.

Go with your Mouse over the Dmd, right click and save (NOT "as globally", but as tablebased). This creates an entry in dmddevice.ini
Open this .ini, search for this new entry (mostly the Last one) and mod the Dmd Position/size values.

One hint for flexdmd 1.9.1... Download it with an Android table/Smartphone ...

was able to update to 1.9.1 using the source.zip - not sure if that is correct. Possibly not, because the flexdmdui still shows version 1.9.0 and everything is green check marked.

 

at any rate it opened a whole other set of problems in the script:

 

Runtime error
-------------
Line: 2984
Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
Parameter name: index

Stack trace (Most recent call first):
    DMD_Init (j=Empty, i=Empty)
    Table1_Init (IMPowerSetting=10, IMTime=1.1, i=Empty)

Also, I cannot find any documentation to change the log.config file like previous version:

 <rules>
    <logger name="*" minlevel="warn" writeTo="console" />
    <logger name="*" minlevel="warn" writeTo="file" />
  </rules>

the previous version had "trace" and "info" that was changed to "warn". my log.config shows:

  <rules>
    <logger name="*" minlevel="Error" writeTo="console" />
    <logger name="*" minlevel="Error" writeTo="file" />
  </rules>
</nlog>
