Title: dot matrix display for pinmame?
Post by: BiGjAc on August 08, 2003, 02:33:54 pm

does anyone know of a way to hook up a real dot matrix display to pinmame so that some one could mount the dot matrix display at the top of my monitor basel for real pinball display  with visual pinball?

There are PC case mods with VFD displays (they support graphics). Just need a driver or interface code.... should be simple enough  ;D

have you tried the forums at the visual  pinball or pinmame websites? those guys probably have a better grasp of what would be possible in those progs.

it's an interesting idea tho. i know i'd like to see it possible.
