Hi, I've been trying to get Doflinx v 9.09 working on my pincab for a few days now.
 
I have four W2812B LED strips connected to a Wemos D1R2 and flashed with Arnoz's Tiny Tools.
I created the cabinet file, the DOF outputs, and the global B2S server configuration.
DOF works correctly on VPX and the FP tables with BAM.
 
However, I can't get Doflinx to work (I've tried Pinball FX, FX3, and MAME). On the FP tables with BAM, the LEDs don't work if Doflinx is enabled.
 
I think my doflinx.ini file is correct, so I don't understand what I'm missing for it to work.
 
I've attached my INI files.
 
Thank you very much!
 
DOFlinx. INI

For addressable LEDs DOFLinx uses Left, Right and Back Effects plus Back Flashers.  Do you have those setup on your configuration via the DOF config tool?

 

If yes to the above, can you share a bit more of the DOFLinx.LOG file once you get into some play so I can see if the commands are being sent to DOF for addressable LEDs?  I see you have logging turned on in DOF, can you also send the corresponding DOF log file with the DOFLinx.LOG?
