ColorDMD Announces Support for Avatar!

ColorDMD's is excited to announce Avatar as the 51st title to be supported by the ColorDMD multicolor pinball display platform!

Avatar is the second release for ColorDMD developer Frank Gigliotti following his work on The Who's Tommy Pinball Wizard earlier this year. Frank has been an avid pinball player since the 1960's and plays nearly every day.

Prior to his work with ColorDMD, Frank worked along side Scott Gullicks on Riot Pinball's Wrath of Olympus pinball machine. Frank has devoted more than three years programming, animating and sound editing, and continues to enhance the game, recently previewing new colored dots for WOOLY!

On Avatar, Frank's work is no less than outstanding. With a great mix of color-enhanced full motion video, hand-drawn animation, and custom 3D modelling, the world of Pandora teems with life under Frank's watchful eye.

ColorDMD displays for Avatar pinball machines leverage the company's easy-to-install LED and LCD platforms. Multicolor operation is enabled through free download and installation of a game-specific ROM using a USB drive. Displays may be reconfigured for use with any supported title.

Looks awesome! Easily one of it not my most anticipated colourdmd releases.

Oh come on Randy pretty please dots preview? this is literally the colourdmd I've been waiting for driving 1400 miles to pick up an LE in preparation for this! Pretty please with sugar on top?

#19 7 years ago

That looks like my Spiderman when I first put the ColorDMD in. It wasn't until I put it in dots mode and turned the contrast down that it really looked good and I could properly make out the clips.

#20 7 years ago

For those that prefer previews with dots, we offer this solution.

Sorry... couldn't thumbs up that utube video.
1) IMHO, HD Dots would have looked better than smoothing. Those animations didn't look good.
2) It wasn't Stern Star Trek.

No. My Colander isn't magic... It couldn't convert the video to Star Trek images.
Maybe if I were at hogwarts...

I'm holding off until I can see a video of the LED display and LCD dots in action.

Post 10 has a sample LCD video. I don't have an LED display to give you a sample. Maybe someone with the LED display could shoot a quick video.

Post #10 shows dots on the image but the video is not. Hopefully something surfaces soon.
