Got the bug to create the Mirror Universe version.  This is a mod of rothbauerw's VPX release.  Credit goes to rothbauerw for all the work he put into the VPX table.  This table mod wouldn't exist without it

 

Here is the current WIP - REQUIRES VPX 10.1 release.  I may eventuall add some additional images from Zitt's real table conversion on Pinside

Interesting idea. 

 

(But you know that there is a VPX easter egg that can do almost exactly that?)

[Ben Logan]

Great idea, Gtx. Thanks!

And Toxie -- where's that Easter egg hidden? Looking forward to playing all my favorites "flipped!"

I found the reference to the mirrored play but I cant make it work - or perhaps I am not following the egg correctly.

I see reference to vp9 easter egg re-activated in VPX, but I can't find any info on triggering the easter egg.  Google is failing me

 

For this table, hit the Time Warp lane for it's easter egg

Only works in UltraPin code?

fully functional?

[allknowing2012]

Seems so - even the source code allows for it  to handle nudges properly.

[rothbauerw]

Thanks for the work on this.  It's definitely a cool looking table!  

[toxie]

it works in VPX and VPX.1 again, and it should be fully functional, yes..

This is actually a good hint, too, for finding the cheat on google..

But its also not -that- difficult to trigger.. Just try to do something 'special' when launching a table..

[allknowing2012]

I cheat cheated and made the registry change .. I will see if I can do something special as well.

[allknowing2012]

Okay I got it .. wouldnt work with my 991.exe but did with VPx.exe  And now it makes sense with how it works with Ultrapin as well.

I hope you can use Zitt's assets to do a true mirror universe trek table' would be great to have this table in our collection for sure. His custom table is fantastic, can't imagine the dozens/hundreds of hours and amount of work he put in.

I asked the original author (via PM on pinside) for permission to build this in VPX and he put a lot of conditions on the release. 

 

I tried to reassure him there wouldn't be any legal problems but at the end of it all he never responded and never gave permission.  :-(

 

I'll leave it up to Noah to decide if he want's to host it here...

 

 

Best Regards,

Pretty c00L once you figure it out... took me 2 or 3 Google Search-Fu's to find it after the UltraPin hint...

[gtxjoe]

This WIP does not contain any of Zitt's assets so no need for permission from him on this version so far

 

He did release his playfield and plastics images under some type of license, but I have not looked into that licensing in any detail...
