VP is great but a big pain in the @ss to set up right. The cab looks awesome so far btw, definitely thinking of building one if i can get a cheepy 40" deal like that

It's a Future Pinball table.  Are you saying I need to edit the actual FP table?  I thought that might be the case.

If I remember correctly at least one of the Future Pinball logos is part of the FP program and is not built into the graphics for the table.  I do not think you can remove the FP logo because of this.  If you look at the graphics of the table you probably will not see a FP logo.  I checked a polygame table and Pollygame logo was there but not FP.  If you run FP you get the logo.

VP yes and for FP there is a field you can edit the DMD size , placement etc. Its in the toolbar. Once you have 2 monitors set up you can make adjustments.  Alot of bugs in FP too as its no longer being updated and supported :(

That may be the case, but I don't think I've ever noticed it on any of the pictures or videos of other people's cabinets.  It's sitting there at about 50% opacity, so maybe I just couldn't see it.

I am adding the prices I paid for the items above for your reference.  I bet you could pull one off for Cab:$50, Monitor: $299, PC: $200, Keywiz+buttons: $50 for a total of $599.  I'm adding a few extra things like monitors, a beefy sound system, and a more powerful video card, but even with those, this cabinet is costing me half the price of a decent used pinball machine.
