 +With the newest PuP-Pack Editor, you can START the PuP-Pack and FIRE any trigger right from the Editor without the need of a table running. This allows you to manage and test your PuP-Pack first before even starting any table code (PUPEvent) or pupcapture (rom based tables). Keep in mind, this only tests the PuP-Pack… not the communication from the table or pupcapture

 +===== PuPPack Screen Terminology: =====
 +
 +**Show**\\
 +This will use whatever settings are set for this screen’s “default” settings.
 +
 +**ForceON**\\
 +Forces the window to be the Top most window, and it stays on. A video is always going to be playing in this mode. When a new video starts or the current video restarts, the ForceON action happens and will force the window to be the Top window again.
 +
 +**ForcePoP**\\
 +Similar to ForceOn, except the vlc window opens and closes with each video played
 +
 +**ForceBack**\\
 +Keeps the video window always open, but under the other PuP screens. This can cause any PuP screen with this setting to get pushed behind your game window.
 +
 +**ForcePopBack**\\
 +Similar to ForceBack, except the vlc window opens and closes with each video played
 +
 +**CustomPos**\\
 +First number is always the screen. 1,<font inherit/inherit;;#e74c3c;;inherit>22.5</font>,<font inherit/inherit;;#2980b9;;inherit>45.3</font>,<font inherit/inherit;;#27ae60;;inherit>55.1</font>,<font inherit/inherit;;#8e44ad;;inherit>54.7</font> screen,xpos,ypos,width,height
 +
 +====== Special Function Playlists ======
 +
 +Theres a few 'special' playlists that do things when you play something from them. Create the playlists (sub-folders) with the exact spelling and they will work once media is played.
 +
 +**PUPOverlays**  you put 32bit pngs in there and when you play them it will set them as current overlay frame.
 +
 +**PUPFrames**  you put 32bit pngs in there and when you play them it will set the background png (good for performance)
 +
 +**PUPAlphas**  you put 32bit pngs in there and when you play them it will set them as current overlay frame with alpha blending (performance, v1.4.5+)
 +
 +**PuPShapes **  you put 24bit bmps files in there and the pixel color (0,0) will be used as a mask to make a see=through shape. See twister puppack for example.
 +
 +These will usually be setup as a trigger with D0 (zero) so that on startup the frame is setup via the puppack.
 +
 +====== Media for PuP-Packs ======
 +
 +You should stick with 'normalized' media file format.  MP4 files 1920x1080 30fps. Its important for file size and stability that all video media doesn't change fps or resolutions during play.
 +
 +The best solution is to run your pack through the pupStandardAllMedia_1080p_replaces.bat found here: https://nailbuster.com/uploads/PuPStandard_or_Resize.zip
 +
 +Read the readme.txt in root.
