Message: <blockquote data-quote="Duglim" data-source="post: 138752" data-attributes="member: 4222">Maybe there is a way to give us cab owners a chance to add our own backglass images to a second monitor?I'm thinking of something like a logfile which logs the currently played table or menu. So we could read this logfile for changes and build a fan made app to show a corresponding backglass image on our second screen. Sure, there is no DMD, but it looks much more authentic with the right backglass image.User BigBoss over at vpforum.org (<a href="http://bit.ly/1gFgVgx" target="_blank">http://bit.ly/1gFgVgx</a>) did something very similar by scanning the tables folder for windows file access and using the windows security logfiles, but this solution is not able to detect menus or exit table events. It just changes the backglass image the moment a new table is started. Maybe adding this logfile is just a matter of a few hours for the developers and they can code it without asking their SCRUM Product Owner for a global priorization of this little feature. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" />Anyway, TPA already rocks on Cabinets, I abandoned Virtual Pinball and Future Pinball simulators for it. All this nice table things linke the global highscores, the help/guide menus, etc make it a much better and more "game" like experience, which I personally perfer. Keep up your great work, greetings from germany!Duglim</blockquote>
