multi-monitor support?

[bob808]

Hi! I build Video Pinball cabinets and was wondering if these tables offer multi-monitor support. It would be great to be able to view backglass images on a secondary monitor with the ability to resize and reposition the backglass image. Also, is there an overhead view (portrait) of the playfield with minimal scrolling? Last question, is it possible to rotate the playfield to portrait mode through the game software, or do you have to use gpu settings? It would be great to purchase and include these licenced tables when selling my pinball machines. Thanks for recreating these wonderful tables!

Hi there.

at the moment, TPA is not meant to be played on a Cab : no multi monitor , no in game portrait switch , no top view etc.. but they promised they will release a Cabinet Support Pacth/DLC later on. we have no info for now tho... i m a virtuapin cab player too

Portrait mode is already in, use the launch utility. I think you still have to change your graphics card setting too.

Farsight are updating the Steam version to virtual cabinet for two screens or two screens + support to send the DMD graphics to a real DMD.

do you have any news about this Cabinet version ? ETA ?

I am playing the tables in portrait mode already and the tables are fantastic! I do have to rotate my desktop to portrait prior to playing though. I would like to see an in game settimg for this like what is found in pinball fx. I am very hopeful about the backglass support. if I can get backglass images in the future for pinball arcade, i will be including this software with every cab I sell. I'm sure everyone with a video pin cab would buy it also... It will be great to be able to purchase and include licenced tables with the machines, as visual pinball can be hard to setup for your average Joe, and then there is the whole copyright thing going on there too...

Multi-monitor support would be great in portrait mode even if not using a cabinet, especially for tables like Monster bash and Creature of the black lagoon where the HUD hides part of the table layout.

very true! A working backglass would be nice even for desktop users with more than one screen.

I just finished setting up my multi monitor rig with Pinball arcade. Any update on multi monitor support? Really looking forward to an animated back glass with scoreboard.

Thanks!

My kids love it, using Samsung S27C750 (can rotate)! Running on my mac, check it out! Only thing I'm considering to add is Single Dual X-Arcade joystick with pinball side buttons. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsQzXKBlKpM

Still no news on multiple monitors? Id love to see this in my real cab. Especially with some ui mods.

PC is not allowed to have anything better than the Xbox One before the XboxOne version is released thanks to Microsoft parity clause.

hm, no buy for me than. Futurepinball also works nice, and is pretty easy to install compared to vp
