Does anyone know if there are places in europe where you can by a fully assembled (plug&play) kit? Alternatively one package containing everything needed?

I have one already that i ordered from german gaming supplies, but if possible i would like to order from some where else this time.

Hmm, i seem to remember that the display itself had some default palettes you could choose from, so that you could easily set it to a red palette, a green palette and so on via the buttons on the back. Perhaps i dont remember correctly? Unfortunately don't have a display any more to test.

But if that IS the case, isn't there an orange palette that resemples an ordinary plasma display? And if not perhaps it could be added to future firmware versions?

Aaaah yes, you're probably right. But still, having an "as close to plasma as possible" palette as one of the defaults could still be nice to have.

I think there is a good chance the "late colors" are editor related. I'm not 100% sure, but in my IJ all of the transitions between different screens aren't colorized. Only when the transition is done, the colors appear. This makes it look like the colors are "late" a lot of the time, and unfortunately kinda ruins the experience.

Don't get med wrong, i think NetzZwerg did an amazing job with the coloring! But i don't think it's any secret that that the current editor for WPC machines has its limitations. But again, i could easily be wrong about it being editor related.

I had a Pin2DMD in my TSPP, and that didn't have the same issues, but as i understand it, a different editor is used for those games?

Quoted from Malenko:

oh, lol, dunno why I had Indy on the brain

Probably because i mentioned i had the same problem in my IJ And yes, it's a real pin, and yes i donated to get the files. But with that said, i was actually aware of the issues before i donated. I just think i hoped they wouldn't be as noticeable as they are. So i have been thinking about going back to monochrome on my IJ, as i find it (for me) less distracting. And then who knows if there will updates down the line.

But I really want to point out, that i think the coloring job on IJ is awesome!! And i understand that it takes an insane amount of hours to do with the tools available. So i have nothing but respect for the people doing these colorizations!

I absolutely love each and everyone contributing to this great hobby, so it is in no way intended as "bashing" or anything when i mention a specific coloring job or the editor.

#988 4 years ago

Aaah ok. Guess that makes sense, and would actually be less distracting.

Thanks for clarifying

That looks awesome!! I really like the colors you chose. Really really nice work!!

I had your colorization for my TSPP, which was awesome as well. Worth every penny!

Hi everyone. I have a Pin2DMD board that i want to update to v4.10, but the display just says "Update failed" or something like that.

I have updated 6-7 other boards for my friends, without any problem. I am confident that i have an EVO board, and that i downloaded the correct .upd file. The file is placed in the root of the SD card. Just like every other board i updated.

Any tips to what could be wrong? My board is similar to this one:

Quoted from Stebel:

Did you try a different SD card? If I remember correctly the SD card must be 10GB or less to work correctly.

Nope, haven't had a chance to try this yet.

Quoted from dzorbas:

I have updated hundreds of them like this after initially installing v3.xx on them using the DfuSe software and my laptop. I have yet to see an "Update failed" message. I would suggest a re-flash using DfuSe and then try running the update from the memory card again. There is a chance that the memory card went bad between the last successful update and this one or that the reader on your last board is bad.

I'll try a re-flash. If the reader was bad, i would think that reading the color files would also be an issue? But it is definitely worth trying a re-flash or another SD card.

Thanks for your input!
