[EXE] pinDMD3 not working right with pinball FX2 in latest release 1.5 #29

Closed doogie2301 closed 7 years ago

only some of the scenes seem to be displaying now. at times when there is only text on the in-game dmd, the pindmd3 is completely black.

also previously there were some shading options in dmdext which I was using to adjust it for fx2 because black background from the in-game dmd was showing as color in the real dmd, not sure if that is related.

by the way the virtual dmd output is showing the same, so I guess it's not related to pinDMD3. it's almost as if the text is black because you can see it sometimes if there is color in the background.

Thanks. Can you give an example of a game where that happens? And where in the game?

here's an example of what I mean. the fx2 dmd is on the top, the dmdext virtual dmd is on the bottom:

ha just happen to be the first two games I tried after the dmdext upgrade: Shaman and Mars. I tried a couple others now and they seem fine (Archer & Tesla).

Edit: Add to the list of games with the issue: Sorcerer's Lair, Infinity Gauntlet, Iron Man, and Thor. Just about everything else seems fine.

Alright, will try to reproduce this. Thanks for the report!
