This procedure should work in existing table DMD's or in newly created DMD's in conjuntion with my previous tutorials (Simple DMD's, Simple FutureDMD's, Simple Animated FutureDMD's). To accomplish this you will need to check for the name of the DMD where you wish the DMD Highscore to be displayed. For use with the Animated FutureDMD's an apostrophe needs to be removed from 5 places to ShutbackgroundsOff() while highscore is being displayed. This will be described at the end of the tutorial.
This should be straight forward as we're merely copy 'n pasting Francisco666's routine from Apollo13. I changed a few names to English and that's it. I used this procedure for the recent ZED 1.1 Gilligan's Island release and it seems to work well. So good luck and remember to credit Francisco666 if you use this in a submitted table. These are highly confidential trade secrets, so be quiet about it
Procedure : 1.Table Prep Import 2 Fonts and Create 2 Timers 2. Disable Hud HighScore 3. Enable DMD HighScore (Copy 'N Paste) 4.Set Left and Right Flippers for changing between letters (Copy 'N Paste) 5.Set Plunger for Selecting Letter (Copy 'N Paste) 6.Scripting to make it all work (Copy 'N Paste)
1. Table Prep A. Import 2 Fonts from Apollo13 (or from other tables if you want different look)

Just below the last statements you just changed under If (BallsRemaining(CurrentPlayer) <= 0) Then
Copy 'N Paste :
Code:
If nvScore(CurrentPlayer)<nvHighScore(10)then EndOfBallComplete() exit sub End if if nvScore(CurrentPlayer)>nvHighScore(10)then 'ShutBackgroundsOff() SelectLetter=1 letter1=64 letter2=32 letter3=32 letter4=32 benterhighscoremode=true highscoremoveright=true TIMEDmoveletters.set true,500 moveletterhs exit sub End if
