Hi all,

I've been using Future Pinball and am a newbie to VP. I'm trying to get a spanned table to run on two monitors with VP 9.0.5. However, when I run LOTR, it squishes everything on the playfield screen. Can someone point me in the right direction?

I'm using XP Pro (32 bit) and an nVidia GTS250. My playfield is running at 1920x1080, but my backglass is a 4:3 monitor at a lower resolution. From what I understand, I wouldn't be able to use vertial span since the monitors are running at different resolutions. I can't really find any real video options in the VP menu.

Thanks!

You can run vertical span at different resolutions. 1366x768 for the playfield and 1280x1024 for the backglass is what an Ultrapin uses with vertical span. Until you have the custom resolution of vertical span 1536x1366 available in the windows display settings, you won't have that option in vp fullscreen mode. It's all proportional, so get that to work first and then you can experiment with whatever res you want.

By backglass is not rotated though (its horizontal). Can I run spanned tables or do I have to go another route?

You can still rotate the decals on the backglass. Or you can rotate your backglass LCD and make a registry edit so FP rotates the backglass. It also works with HyperPin that way too. Of course, if it's too difficult then look at the UVP server option.
