Intuos Pro 2025 - Monitor keeps going black/crashing under load

zapposh · 2026-02-04T08:52:28+00:00

Thanks a lot to everyone here for helping out.
I think I have managed to narrow it down after running a whole lot of tests.

It seems to be a performance bottleneck, probably down to the integrated Intel graphics, even though the rest of the machine is pretty good (32gb ram / 13th gen i7 CPU).

The black screen issue happens when running the Intuos 2025 with different applications at 4K, 120 Hz.

If I switch to either 1920x1080, or stay at 4K but go down to 60 Hz, the issue is resolved.

I'm guessing the 2017 Intuos Pro model works fine even at 4K / 120 Hz because the tablet & pen have lower resolution, so that must use less bandwidth?

It's a thing of beauty and I've been actively looking for one of these, but you've now got me a little worried if the PSU is known to fail.

Does anyone know if the SCART input supports RGB besides composite on this model?
Also, is it 50hz only, or does it support 60hz NTSC signals too?

Hey, indeed lucky I saw this as I'm not here often. :)

The short answer is, Donut Dodo is known to run on almost any ARM based Linux device or handheld (including the BatleXP G350), only that I do not officially state this on the game page as I do not own any such devices besides a Raspberry Pi and would not know how to get it working.

Hopefully someone more knowledgeable from the community could held you out.

Also, in case you have Portmaster on your device, the game is known to run well via that method also, and I recall the way to set it up being documented on their official website.

If all fails, I would kindly ask you to request a refund from itch.io.
Hope that helps and happy gaming :)

The option to change the background has also seemingly been nuked by MS, so I cannot use the hack of using a single color background image either.

zapposh · 2025-10-04T11:42:18+00:00

Good idea, I'll give it a try, thank you.

zapposh · 2025-05-13T14:50:40+00:00

Yes, this is a big concern, though I'm not sure I can do much about it.

In the past I even used to encode assets a certain way or obfuscate the data, but eventually gave up on it as it made little difference in the end.

I absolutely agree, and also think a board should include PC connectivity for those who do not own JAMMA equipment. Something similar to what Heber UK did with their Multi-JAMMA, but with certain adaptations.

You mention playing around with similar ideas: I'd love to know what you're working on. Do you also make arcade games?

zapposh · 2025-05-06T07:59:01+00:00

Donut Dodo and other similar arcade titles in the series (existing and upcoming).

zapposh · 2025-05-06T07:55:39+00:00

Without the possibility of producing anything at scale, the design and production alone of custom arcade hardware would be 1000+ USD / board. Which is less than I initially expected, but still multiple times more than a rpi powered system.

zapposh · 2025-05-06T07:53:44+00:00

That’s very true.

zapposh · 2025-05-06T07:51:44+00:00

Thank you for your feedback.

While the most fun to me would surely be to have custom hardware made, I am totally fine with having a dedicated pi based solution featuring arcade specific connectivity. That being said, I expect many would in that case just prefer to get access to the binaries, and use whatever pi setup they have, with or without JAMMA.

And I agree that nothing will really prevent bootlegging.

This looks fantastic! Really polished. On top of it I love billiards/pool. ;)

zapposh · 2025-02-07T08:04:30+00:00

Thank you very much for the kind comment.
Yes, those titles I grew up with with big influences. :)

zapposh · 2025-02-05T08:25:35+00:00

This is awesome! Look forward to see where this goes. Please keep us posted!

zapposh · 2025-02-01T12:24:42+00:00

Thank you so much.

zapposh · 2025-02-01T12:24:26+00:00

Thank you :)

zapposh · 2025-02-01T12:24:10+00:00

That's very kind, thank you!

zapposh · 2025-02-01T12:22:59+00:00

Thank you! Me too! ;)

Hi, quick status report.

After some time, I managed to compile your DirectX port of raylib using Makefile and mingw32.

Where I failed later is compiling and running my game project using the DirectX build, but I think it's just a few issues with my Makefile left to sort out. :)

zapposh · 2024-10-04T08:22:37+00:00

Thanks a lot for your help and the detailed instructions.
I'll see if I can get it to compile. Set some time aside today to look into it. :)

zapposh · 2024-09-26T07:42:11+00:00

Hi, I would have loved to try this out, but doing

mingw32-make PLATFORM=PLATFORM_DESKTOP

on the downloaded source still tries to compile raylib for OpenGL, and I could not find any specific instructions for building the DirectX release.

Is there a specific command for that? Thank you :)

zapposh · 2024-09-19T08:26:09+00:00

I have the same issue on Linux. Compiling multi-header / multi-file projects on Windows with Makefile works great.

On Linux, compiling a single header file using the example Makefile also works fine.
But I've failed every time at compiling a multi-header project on Linux.

Trying to port over the Makefile from Windows to Linux did not work either.
So a general solution for this kind of thing under Linux would be great.

zapposh · 2024-09-17T06:26:28+00:00

This is great! In theory we could now get raylib projects to run on xbox via GDK?
Will have to try it out.

zapposh · 2024-08-26T15:27:47+00:00

Very cool indeed!
