Has anyone used both? Can it even be done? Is there some fundimental reason it wouldn't work? (Ie no way to get an output from the colordmd etc).
The idea : replace stock Dmd with the specific game color Dmd then utilise the Dmd extender to extend the nice colors to an apron based lad between the flippers.
I know it can be done with just the extender just wondering if the colordmd works the same way.

ok i think i figured this out myself.
You cant get the colorized dmd into a smaller lcd due to the way that the colordmd does its interpretation. You'd have to intercept the colordmd to lcd signal to grab the colorized pixels. :\
You can still do it but the small lcd would be the first in the daisy chain and would thus be monochrome and not a smaller version of the colordmd.
booearns. ^.^

I built a DMD screen into a theatre of magic in the apron and it was really good to play because the screen was right below your flippers

well thats the idea but i wanted to see if it was possible to get the colorised colordmd version (not just color tinted etc).
Got any pics of what you used for the lcd housing?
