First of all massive thanks ref the Winwall screen the other day - this has been sorted out perfectly! A massive huge thanks there.

Secondly, I had already done the steps you have suggested regarding Divas top balloons, and same with the reels, for some reason it doesn't seem to be detecting them. I have ensured not on any subdued or bingo modes too before I added in the lamps. I did this via the top box, insert lamp then went into here and selected the lamp in this case 400 - but also 401 and 402 etc and still completely dead. Can you tell me if the setting I have shown a photo of is the correct way I have done it? If I haven't I am very sorry, I am still learning and you are my teacher at the moment until I get the hang of this new PFME :-)

Best Wishes

Thanks for the photo. Your settings are right: top box board, lamp bound through the picker as L400. I checked this morning on a clean install of 0.3.5 and the balloons on the shipped Divas layout do light, so the problem is on your machine, not in your layout.

My earlier advice was wrong on one point. An old copy of the Divas program file still lists L400 in the picker, so you will not see "not on this machine". What it lacks is the table that says which output line the lamp is on, so the bulb never lights.

Quick check: hover over the l400 row in the picker. If the tooltip says "output line 0" the file is fine. If it gives a row and "column 0", it is the old copy.

Fix: close PFME, open %LOCALAPPDATA%\PFME\programs in File Explorer, move F9B1E841DCF2F738.json to your desktop, and open the layout again. Hover over l400 once more and it should now say output line 0, with the balloon lit. The top reel lamps L408 to L416 are cured by the same move.

If the tooltip already says output line 0 and the bulb is still dark, send me a screenshot of that tooltip and the version from Help > About.
