    @StevOz Haha, I love how Tim could take almost any concept and turn it on its head, in this case going with a 'black-light' / neon look. Btw-- great job y'all, refreshing the recommended tables list. I never had much luck getting input in to that, so was kind of afraid to mess with the list too much. So cool to see a completely new list, now! :-)

    By the way, I understand that this question is probably better suited in the forums, but like I said before, my account has been disabled and I think you need an active account to use the forums.

    Hello, I don't know if anybody here can help me with this but unfortunately I have been locked out of my account, It happened after I successfully reset my password. I am able to log in but then I get stuck on the your account has been disabled page and I can't do anything else.

    For those wondering, the tip did help. Guest got it working after posting here... https://pinballnirvana.com/forums/threads/cant-see-floating-dmd-in-full-screen.23516/#post-159654
  30. G @ Guest:
    Thanks for the link, sadly that tip didn't help but I'll ask there
  31. xenonph @ xenonph:
    You can open Editor, and click Preferences tab, then Video / Graphics, then look for Force Exclusive Fullscreen Mode, and uncheck that. Now your DMD will show with FS.
  32. xenonph @ xenonph:
    @Guest Try posting that question here... https://pinballnirvana.com/forums/forums/vp-vpm-first-aid-station-need-help.87/
  33. G @ Guest:
    Does anyone know how to force a floating DMD (as seen on most of bord's tables) to show up as PART OF the main window, in full screen? The goto answer from most people is "ah you can move it where you want and then switch back to VP", which... I don't know if they've never used a window-based operating system or if they've never played VP in desktop mode, but that isn't how windows work. A fullscreen window displays on top of any other window, including the DMD.

    There were too many clouds in the Seattle area to see it be blood color. By the time I saw it, it was past full eclipse and just "muted grey" color.
