[QUOTE="Narc0lep5y, post: 297072, member: 5223"] Calling it Cabinet mode is generous. As far as i can tell it lets you set DMD and backglass locations/resolutions and not much else. If you click it, it makes a Cabinet folder in the mods directory and a settings.ini file in that folder. Settings.ini looks like this - ignore the actual numbers this is from my desktop [DotMatrixWindow] Enabled=True Priority=0 PositionX=25 PositionY=25 Width=512 Height=128 DotMatrixSize=Medium [BackglassWindow] Enabled=True Priority=0 PositionX=0 PositionY=0 Width=1920 Height=1080 As far as I can tell, there's no way to actually rotate the playfield (it's not in the newly revised Cabinet mode FAQ either). Even the video shows "cabinet mode" running with a landscape playfield (NOTE - I really hope that was for YouTube presentation and they don't really think people play cabinet mode that way). I haven't found anything about direct table launch scripts either and without both of those that's kind of a non functional tease that doesn't even do what FX3 does for cabinet mode. But it's a start! and a good start except.... Mel also announced that aside from Bug fixes (uh huh sure) resources are being pulled from cabinet mode to work on console launch. Waah Waaaaah [/QUOTE]
