In this video I install the VIBS board for version 2 in the correct manner that will not fry your board or monitors. This will allow the backglass to display like a traditional pinball machine in OTG mode connected to a gaming PC.
I also tackle and solve the Steam FX3 backglass and DMD parameters for those that tried WagnersTechTalk like me and it didn’t work for them. Big thank you to Wagner for the helpful information on everything else!

thanks man, two days of trying to figure it out, and that minute or two with the nvidia control panel adjustments did it

@JohnPauls 7 месяцев назад

You’re most welcome and thank you for the feedback! Enjoy!

I also used different settings for my dmd in the beginning but having your Lontium display in portrait mode is going to give you trouble down the line. If you need help email me. But your gonna be in windows screen setting hell when you install vpx and future pinball. The first thing you need to do when installing pinup popper is all screens need to be in landscape mode, 100% scaling, your playfield is always the left screen, then your backglass, then dmd, then topper (if you get those eventually ) Also just know windows will mess with you with the numbering of the screens. Don’t worry about that so much, there is a chance vpx and future pinball will tell you , your playfield is screen number 2 when windows says it’s number 1. Lol welcome to hell brother . Haha jk welcome to the family, great video.

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

Trust me I know haha. Already have VPX fully running through Pinup Popper. I’m using irotate to accommodate the change in modes between the two. Also set up two Joytokey profiles for each. Eventually I’ll have pinup run fx3 and can stay in landscape. Already have 100 tables loaded lol, it’s been a fun learning experience with an extreme learning curve but fairly easy once you understand it. Appreciate the heads up!!!!

What tracker ball are you using? Can you use it as a mouse? It's the one thing I haven't sorted yet.. Using a separate keybkard/touchpad

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

The AtGames control panel track ball can act as a mouse. I prefer using a wireless mouse.

@francos9130 2 года назад

Thanks for the info. I got the dmd working but I don’t have the art background display? All files are loaded in the folder. I can share pics of what I see. Basically black with the name of the directory where the art back glass is

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

This is for FX3? Make sure your display setting on the PC are correct, also check your graphics card settings to make sure they match.

Im trying to connect my vibs with an hdmi to usb-c, and not getting a signal. Any thoughts on this?

Dose Plugger work? And Flippers work? Do you have Zen Studio email address as well. Thank you

Yes and yes after set up and calibration. No, it’s submitted through a ticket on their website. Search Zen studios cabinet code. You’re welcome.

@fasineight 2 года назад

how do you download the art work for the Backglass? I have the main screen working fine it's just the backglass still shows my computer desktop screen.

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

You need to download the b2s file. Google the “table name b2s”. Download and install in the same folder. Ensure the backglass b2s file name matches the table vpx name identically.

Mine arrives next week - I'm still deciding whether or not to keep the DMD on my tablet i have already in-use...or move it to the backglass once I install the VIB...

Awesome, congratulations! Install VIBS, much more authentic feel and look to it unless you actually integrate the tablet into the box.

@@JohnPauls I already have the tablet velcroed between the speakers showing the DMD. If my GPU will support it (no lag) - I will keep it as DMD and when I connect the VIB just use the backglass to show the artwork.

John question - I have a laptop and vibs and the play field and I shows 3 displays never 2 why

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

Hey Dan! It’s showing the laptop as the third display. There’s ways to auto turn off the screen when it senses external monitors.

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

Hit “Identify” in Monitor settings to shut down the proper display. It’ll number each display live on screen.

@ARFF1Tampa Год назад

I'll try this, found out that all my backglass files for this are .xpx files and backglass asks for .bmp, .jpg, ect. I'll have to figure that out, thank you. But first have to figure out why controls on atGames are not registerring when I try to set them in pinball fx3.

@JohnPauls Год назад

Possibly the USB cable, many reported instances of cables not registering inputs. Some use powered hubs, I did not require one. Try swapping cables.

@gordonliddy8905 2 года назад

I've only got one HDMI port coming out of gaming laptop. Seems like two screens is not an option. Work around??

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

HDMI, DisplayPort & USB C can all be used with the right adapter.

@gordonliddy8905 2 года назад

I've got all the adapters, followed Wagner tech talk etc but is it possible my laptop won't all two monitors? Or do you dust the nvda graphics card somewhere. Just doesn't seem to recognize two monitors.

@gordonliddy8905 2 года назад

Thank you for you fast replies! Yikes

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

You’re most welcome lol. Yes the graphics card needs to be capable of displaying two monitors. Google your specific card and check it’s capabilities. I bought a prebuilt at Microcenter, came with a RTX3060 for $1200+\- with “inflation”

@CyberCiles 2 года назад

Question for you my man I just ordered one and just recently got it put it together but the aesthetic on the black finish on my back glass piece was messed up and you can tell where they tried to apply some black stuff to fix it and my right nudge button wasn’t hooked up so I hooked it up myself and I had this really weird thing happen when my Nintendo switch turned itself off and I tried to switch the channel button back to normal then back again to HDMI the Nintendo was on and wouldn’t display on my main screen then somehow I got it to come back on the main screen and when I hit the channel button again to see what it would do everything that supposed to be on the main screen went to the back glass monitor is that normal and should I return this machine❓thanks

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

I’d return it on the basis that it had damage alone. No one should receive a new product at full price damaged with a jerry rigged fix. Is it playing normally after a reboot? Or still experiencing the issue?

@CyberCiles 2 года назад

@@JohnPauls Thanks for responding man…I haven’t really seen if the issue would happen again since I knew about the Nintendo switch option that you could hook up I did that until I get a computer to do everything the better way…but I simply came upstairs and then when I went back down you know my Nintendo had turned itself off after being idle for so long and when I turn the Nintendo back on it was still in HDMI mode on the pinball Machine & it wouldn’t show up…that’s when I started pressing the channel button to see what was going on and it acted wonky I got it to come back on(after I turned the power switch off and back on)and I played some pinball tables through FX three on Nintendo but not sure why it did that.. but yeah I feel the same the aesthetics were messed up and for something brand new that cost so much I’ve reached out to them today through email it’s just stupid because I had to tear the box apart to get the damn thing out and they’re gonna want me to send all this back in the same boxes and I hear they want you to pay the shipping charge to send it back. Sorry for such a large response I appreciate your time

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

If anything have them credit the difference, that’s ridiculous. Ok, if you haven’t experienced the issue again since you should be okay. The ALP left in OTG mode also goes into a non responsive state every so often, requiring a reboot. AtGames has been made aware of it, they don’t care to fix it. More of an inconvenience than anything else since you can’t leave it in attract mode. You probably experienced the same thing but with the switch. You’re most welcome.

@CyberCiles 2 года назад

@@JohnPauls I highly appreciate your response John Paul‼️👊🏻what you just said sounds like what happened with me as far as all that goes and I know you probably won’t want to do it but I would love to send you through email or whatever the two pictures of what I’m complaining about aesthetic wise to see if you think I’m being too picky I mean it is messed up and it shouldn’t be..but if everything else you described is how the machine normally works and I fixed my nudge button then all that there is wrong with it is a little spot where the aesthetic of the black on the back glass frame got messed up again holler back if you have time I would love to send you the picture if not all good….ciles45150@gmail.com (maybe they can just send me a new back glass piece)

Ummm... how is this pinball machine if you don't add all this stuff.. like if I wanna play like how it comes?... do you still recommend it if I don't have a PC to attach it to?

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

Human nature is to always want more, is it satisfying to purchase, play with the pre-loaded 120+ something tables (Gottlieb = meh, Zaccaria = Yay), Taito and future easily downloadable tables through the Legends platform… yes absolutely. I just want more and I’m willing to learn a new platform to add to the system. It’s worth it but not necessary with the ALP. You’ll enjoy it without the benefits of OTG and if you get tired later on with the hundred + tables, you’ll have the option to add always open.

@ChosenOne1994 2 года назад

@@JohnPauls got it,the Zac tables are meh... hate the music, although I do agree, that this is a great base for a mod.

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

I actually really like the Zacs now after trying FX3 the way it’s supposed to be experienced and VPX / Future pinball. It’s nice having native tables that just work. Everything for the most part, great FPS, vivid colors, everything works (for the most part) I.e. haptics and the gameplay is just and effortless. Yeah the music and art on the some of those tables is unsatisfying, like you said great base for a mod when you want more.

@ChosenOne1994 2 года назад

@@JohnPauls yea..my a1up was great out of the box...I just feel like atgames is good if you want to start to mod or do emulation but not everyone does, I wish they were more transparent about that..my ALU had no play, because I don't wanna mess with emulation..... if I did I'd have a pi4

Did you do the recent hack on yours yet? I loaded all 30 tables on my Arcade1up with the recent update. Pissed me off knowing the pcb on that thing can hold all thirty tables and they sold it with 10?!

Button mapping in Steam settings, comes up as an Xbox controller. First make sure windows see it as a controller first and not a mouse or other peripheral attached through USB.

If positioning is off. Take your mouse and grab the DMD and drag it over to the DMD screen. Right click the DMD, pick game settings Make sure cabinet mode is checked, and click OK click OK to dialog Now right click DMD again click show borders Now resize the DMD like you would any window, to fit the DMD screen properly Now drag the DMD a little out of position, then right click and disable borders Now grab and set into position Now DMD will remember itself.

I've never seen anyone do a worse job of placing HDMI and USB in the "wrong" places....It's just SO awful.

Disgusting how people buy a pinball table, and they butcher it with the joystick panel. I just do not see the point, I want one and I am not a massive pinball fan, but it is just my bucket list to own a pinball table. I for one will never buy the joystick for it, as it ruins what it is a PINBALL table.

@JohnPauls 2 года назад

You’re absolutely entitled to your opinion, I hope you get to own a pinball table someday as it too was on my bucket list. However this pales in comparison to a real pinball table but also doesn’t cost $10k+. They give you the ability to run 1000’s of arcade games through it as well but to take advantage of that, you either need a Bluetooth remote control or the Arcade Control Panel. My kid loves playing the Arcade games on the machine so it served a purpose for me. It also greatly simplifies menu selection - pinball tables. Thanks for watching.
