thanks

Nice work, thanks

Thanks JP!

Great job. Thank you. I noticed the inserts have mismatched text since V4. Erasing the words from the "inserts" image gets you back to V3. I tried fixing the white text in "inserts" to match the text in "pf" and it looks terrible in my editor but it actually looks good in 4k. We are very lucky to have JP. I can barely do the simplest things

This table (Ripley's Believe It or Not!) and the table (Simpsons Kooky Carnival) crash all  the time for me (I use Visual Pinball 10.7.2) : I don't understand why, the old version 3 of Ripley crash too. The table don't crash if I edit the table before lauching (right click and Edit), but if I double-click for launch it crash. Any idea ?

--> Solution : I updated Nvidia driver for my graphic card, and it's ok now !

Wow. Great updates. Thank you so much, JP. LOVE THIS TABLE.

The sfx audio is distorted. I tried to put down the volume but the problem there is always,

Someone has the same problem?
