Hmm I seem to be getting a mediation error on this latest update-
Script error 2661
Type Missmatch ExtraBallsRewards
Love your work and looking forward to playing the update

 

[HZR]

I looked into the issue briefly, I dont see any reason yoiu should be getting this.
I changed a variable that was used in the table and also in the fizx code, it shouldnt have caused the issue but i replaced it anyways.
When did the error happen, when you recieved a etra ball?
Unfortunatly, those lines of script belong to a different part of the program, and often thpse are the lines reported.
Type mismatch could mean a straggler key was press ANYWHERE in the code.
telling me what the table or event and when ot happens wll help me narrow it down...

try this patch and let me know.. May want to install the new updated BAM from the resources. here...

Loving your work and wondered if there was a way to activate the 3rd screen for the DMD for scores etc? It seems like the DMD on the backbox currently doesn't display the scores at the moment anyway, just the time circuits.

You can try these files.
Patched FPloader.exe and Patched FuturePinball.exe
replace FuturePinball.exe with the one in the RAR
Replace Files In BAM_FIX in BAM folder

delete any reference in BAM./CONFIG
and BAM/Cache

and also in Futurepinball/FPram

Loving your work and wondered if there was a way to activate the 3rd screen for the DMD for scores etc? It seems like the DMD on the backbox currently doesn't display the scores at the moment anyway, just the time circuits.

Was also wondering if this was possible. It`s a great table to play. The icing on the cake would be if I could get the scores on the 3rd(DMD) screen or even the popup videos on that screen instead of the tiny screen at the top of the playfield. Thankyou for all your great work.

This table needs more work, i dont have a cabinet but i do have a second screen Ill checkit out, Ive bneen really slammed outside with family issues (illnesses) and my F***** up job. People are lazy they work for a few months and quit. The job isnt everything, but its always busy, they are lenient as can be,

Maybe one of the seriors would have a quick solution? DMDEXT maybe.
I dont have a cabinet so Im not sure

I assume DMDExt is driving this 3rd(DMD) screen? The DMDs on this table use 128x16 DMDs and they do display the score occasionally. DMDExt is only compatible with DMDs that are sized 128x32. I discovered that you can resize the 128x16 DMD to 128x32. The bottom portion of it will be blank but it will work. You can just leave DispDmd1 where it is and resize it and it will display the empty portion of it under Overlay1 which is the time circuit display.

DMDExt selects the first 128x32 DMD that was added to the table. The HUD DMD (DispDMD2) can be left as is. DMDExt will not selected it because it is the wrong size. That leaves DispDmd1 (that you increased the size to 128x32) and FizXDMD which is currently 128x32. I am pretty sure that DispDmd1 has been there a long time and HZR added FizXDMD to this version so DispDmd1 was the first added to the table.

Conclusion: Resize DispDmd1 to 128x32 without moving it and let the blank portion of it display under Overlay1 which it will do automatically. You shouldn't have to change anything else and DMDExt should select DispDmd1 to display. Just be aware that the bottom portion of the DMD will be blank.

There is an alternative. Change the HUD DMD (DispDMD2) to 128x32 and leave DispDmd1 unchanged. I suspect that DispDMD2 is from the original version also and is older than FizXDMD. DMDExt then will use the Hud DMD.

Thankyou GeorgeH for that explanation. It`s a bit over my head. But fear not I built my cabinet at the end of 2019 and have been learning since then. I`m still learning and love the challenges this hobby keeps throwing up. Getting the dmd to work on this table, would be the icing on the cake for my setup. In my eyes anyways.
Thankyou again for your time.
Benge.

OK

1. Open the FP editor
2. click on the button in the left pane "Select Game Room / Translite View.
3. in the upper right corner of the screen, look for a long narrow box that is stacked on top of a rectangular box and click on it.
4. you should see DispDMD2 appear in the right pane
5. below the name is a pulldown menu named "Type" and you will see dmd128x16.
6. click on the pull down and select dmd128x32
7. close the editor and save.
8. give it a try

lordy..... I didnt mess with the DMD displays at all. only the diverters and fizx.
If I ever get time Ill finish the update for it and keep that in mind.

It is just something Benge can do for himself. It is not that difficult.

Thanx again George. I cannot do anything at the minute. I`m having a lot of issues with my pinball cabinet pc and the nvidia rtx 3060 graphics card. My 3 monitors keep going black(no images showing). Sometimes they come back on. I`m going to do a fresh install of windows and start from scratch as I`ve tried installing new drivers but nothing works. There`s always an issue with this hobby. I`ll let you know how I get on with your great instructions once I`m sorted.

just asking.
are going on the web with your PB PC?

 

[Benge]

No. I now have another issue. After fresh install of windows I installed baller installer. Everything is back working except the tables in vpx stutter both the ball and pup packs. The pup packs stutter in future pinball pinevent tables too. I`ve never had this issue before. I`ve tried different solutions but nothing works. This happens when using the vpx 10.8.0 version. However if I use the vpxGL64(I think that`s what it`s named) the tables work fine but that doesn`t solve the future pinball stuttering problem. I`m at a loss here.

Hopefully you are not using the Windows 8 compatibility set up on FP as it causes stutter. The first thing I would suggest is applying the following to both FuturePinball.exe and FPLoader.exe:

Support File - Tutorial - BAM - FP - 4 GB patch for Future Pinball and BAM. A must have!

Future Pinball is.... OLD. Future Pinball is an older 32 bit program, which means that (by default) it's only allowed to access up to 2 GB of ram to use. Windows did this with the assumption that anyone running a 32 bit program in a 32 bit version of Windows (which can only access 4 GB total)...

[Benge]

Not in compatibility mode. I assumed the patch was installed during baller installer. I downloaded and applied it anyway and still freezing. Just to clarify the tables in future pinball play fine but the pinevent videos on tables such as jaws just freeze. In visual pinball the tables stutter along with any pup packs. I`ve even tried my backup hard drive that had everything working and it`s just the same.
