Hi friends:)

Cactus Canyon (& Continued​

cc plays fine and always has done. To recap, how does one get ccc to play as it's stopped working. Failing that, does someone have a working CCC i could have, please.
Thanks

ps i know this file is not supported here, but you don't get support in the other place, so this is just an off chance that someone has this file
 
here's my user settings yaml if you like. Tailored for desktop on my 1920 x 1200 screen. back yours up first of course
Still no DMD cliffy
if you have a working ccc i could have, that could be the answer but don't worry if not OK :)
 
Install the pup pack and make another folder under pupvideos called Proc_CC. Copy everything from the cc_13d pup folder into the proc_cc folder. Put my attached pinuppplayer.ini in the new folder as well as desktoppunch.exe and pupinit.bat from nailbuster.

i have done that, still no DMD

the pup file is just called cc_13 no d

Anything else to try?
 
yeah. If you read the thread I linked to CarnyPriest and others have shown different ways to get the dmd on top. Hopefully you compared my user settings to your own and made the necessary changes.
 
Small progress in that I'm now getting the pup pack to work on cc albeit it's far too big also it shows up on ccc for a second correctly as all my pup packs do in size before disappearing.
Thanks cliffy for all your help, anyhow and maybe at some point they will work correctly as all my other tables pup packs do

I saw the display size settings you posted. Are you running a cab? If you're running desktop are you sure you tried the user settings I sent? Here's the dmd display line from mine which puts the dmd in the upper left corner, which matches my pinupplayer.ini;
Color Display Pixel Size: 4, Color Display X Offset: 0, Color Display Y Offset: 0,

Thanks cliffy will give it go once again and report back later
 
Hi cliffy
only a small step forward on the cc table with the pup pack. The table does run without errors. So i now need to get the cc pup pack in the right placement. All my other pup packs show correctly.

On the CCC table however that won't run properly as there are many script errors which are only showing up on exiting the table
the table does run thou and the pup pack does now show but is static and no score is showing
I am using your script as per your advice given running Windows 10 desktop

As for cc and CCC by ninuzzu they neither work at all with many errors on starting up of which I can't even open the script
they did once work without pup packs and were reliable, but with the latest updates to vpx etc they no longer work at all
 
I now have a working CCC with the DMD, like all my other pup packs. The script errors still showing thou on exiting the table. I think that's the best I can do at this time.
Just now need to get the cc DMD pup pack in the right setting

hmmm. i have the same lines, no problems. are you running the b2s (I am) and wouldn't you know it, the second time I ran it and closed I got the same error vpx 10.7.4 dx x64. I ran it again but with 32 bit vpx, no problemo. I suspect the python is 32 bit only

    (AI prompt) Describe a pirate's trip to the market to buy fish-heads and adult diapers

  • ChatGPT @ ChatGPT:
    @Free Bally!, A pirate, known for his seafaring adventures and notorious escapades, found himself in a rather peculiar situation. After a particularly rough storm that had battered his ship and crew, he realized that they were running low on provisions and, quite embarrassingly, that he was in need of adult diapers due to an unfortunate bout of seasickness that had left him with a weakened constitution.

    With a grumble and a scowl, the pirate docked his ship at the nearest port town, a bustling marketplace known for its variety of goods and fresh seafood. He tied his ship securely at the harbor, adjusted his tricorn hat, and made his way to the market with a swagger in his step, trying to maintain his fearsome reputation despite his current mission.

    As he walked through the crowded streets, the pirate attracted curious glances from the townsfolk. His appearance was striking, with a weathered coat, a hook for a hand, and a parrot perched on his shoulder squawking,

    (AI prompt) Why did the pirate have an eye patch?
    Quote
  • ChatGPT @ ChatGPT:
    @Free Bally!, Pirates are often depicted with eye patches in popular culture, but the reasons for this vary. Here are a few possible explanations:

    1. **Injury**: The most straightforward reason a pirate might wear an eye patch is that they lost an eye due to injury. Pirate battles, sword fights, and the general hazards of seafaring life could easily lead to eye injuries, necessitating an eye patch.

    2. **Myth and Stereotype**: The image of a pirate with an eye patch has become a stereotype perpetuated by movies, books, and other forms of media. It's part of the romanticized pirate image that includes peg legs, hooks for hands, and parrots on shoulders.

    3. **Preserving Night Vision**: A more interesting and practical theory suggests that pirates wore eye patches to keep one eye adapted to the dark. When moving between the bright deck and the dark below decks, a pirate could switch the patch from one eye to the other. The eye that was covered
