8.1:  Default settings are now with no music, table sounds only.

       To be able to listen to your mp3 files when you play this table, you have to open the script and do the following :

       UnComment Lines from 1042 to 1063

       Line 1042 : Change ->  Const myMusicFolder ="THE PATH TO YOUR MUSIC FOLDER"  

       to, example :  -> Const myMusicFolder ="c:\vPinball\VisualPinball\Music\MotorHead" (the name of the directory that has YOUR mp3 files)

       UnComment Lines 215 and 216 to add the commands to catch the right and left Magna Keys in the KeyDown function

      In addition, you can UnComment the Line 209 in the Table1_Init sub to start music when you launch the table

      Thanks a lot to Jogrady7 for his method and for telling me !
 
 
8.0: Updated lighting for VP10.8 (no more sunglasses needed !). Thanks to JP Salas for his help !

       You can now listen to music using MagnaSave buttons (CAB) or CTRL keys (PC), RIGHT (launch music or next track), LEFT (stop music).

       You just have to create a "Motorhead" folder in VPinball -> Music and put your mp3 files inside.

       I did a mix of "JP Salas" and "HiRez00" methods.

       I also added a new ball sent to me by "me337".
 
 
1.2: Removed mp3 files from the upload
 
       If you want to listen to music when playing this table, you have to import your own mp3 files into the VPinball / Music folder
 
      Rename them like that, Motorhead01, Motorhead02 and so on, and then uncomment lines 85,86, and from 94 to 130 in the script (see the image below)
 
      If you import less songs, don't forget to change the quantity, line 125 (mod XX)

1.1: No changes, all the files (Table, B2S backglasses, Music, Wheel) are now in the same download
 
1.0: I wanted to do an original table, trying to use all I had learned since the beginning of VPX,

but I realized I knew not much, and I sure wouldn't have been able to finish it without VPForums community's help

So, at first, thanks to 32assassin for his permission to use his table "Blackout" as a starting point, and his help for the script when I started to work on this table


Special thanks to:

Flupper1 for his flashers template and his help, he raised this table standards to a much higher level !
Here is what he did:
- Flasher domes with prerendered additional flashing effect on the playfield
- flashers in the shooter lane with a dimmed looping light effect when the ball is waiting in the shooterlane
- script option to change the color of all flashers and GI lights
- shadow layer on the playfield
- FS Settings

Thalamus for his help, advice, and his 7.1 sound

Xenonph for his help and advice (b2s, rom sounds... )

Wizball for telling me how to make a new song start when the one before is finished and the ball didn't yet went to drain

And thanks also to many others like Kiwi, Fuzzel... for their availability and help (sure I forgot some of you !)

And, of course, enormous thanks to VPX and VPinMAME developers !
 

Sript options:

If you want to change the color of all flashers and GI lights, it's from line 5 to line 9 in the script (just uncomment the line with the color you like, but you can also add your own ones)

If you want to change sounds volumes, it's from lines 25 to 36 in the script . (WARNING ! Bumpers value never more than 1, it could make your speakers worse)
You also can change Right Slingshot volume (line 797) & Left Slingshot volume (line 815), default value is 5

For Desktop users, the default backdrop is GREEN, but in "Table / Image Manager" you'll find a BLACK & WHITE, a BLUE, and a RED ones


As I used table Blackout (Williams) to make this one, you need to use the ROM "blkou_l1"
 
You can find the rules with the table file, and also in Table / Table Info


Why a Motörhead table ? Because it's the best rock 'n' roll band in the world !

All the 30 songs you will listen to while playing this table, except "Motörhead", are from the three albums "Overkill", "Bomber" and "Ace of Spades",

with Lemmy Kilmister (1945 - 2015), Fast Eddie Clarke (1951 - 2018) and Philthy Animal Taylor (1954 - 2015)
 
Extract mp3 files from "Motorhead_Music" to your VPinball / Music folder

Hope Motörhead and Rock 'N' Roll fans will like this table, and perhaps those who didn't know this band and don't listen to this kind of music too !

Lemmy said, "We are Motörhead and we play Rock 'N' Roll"

So, let there be Sound... Lights... Drums... Guitar... Bass Guitar... Let there be MOTÖRHEAD...

Thanks

 

First of all, did you read this line in the description ?

 

If you want to change the color of all flashers and GI lights, it's from line 5 to line 9 in the script (just uncomment the line with the color you like, but you can also add your own ones)

 

Otherwise, as I have no cab, I know nothing about DOF stuff

 

So, can you post your question in the table topic, more cab users will be able to read it ?

Absolutely fantastic job, the colour of the palyfield was a great choice, although I'd still like a coloured version. Maybe some different coloured lifhts, the bombs coulred and the main Warpig image in the Overkill album cover colours and some of the playfield texts in red I feel. This is just how I see it not a crtiticism in the slightest OK.

But hey it has a real gritty and industrial feel, the way it should have and I'm just thankful someone did a Motorhead table.

Great choice of tracks too, this is a fave all day long.

But then I am a major Motorhead fan ;)

Thanks, in fact, I wanted this table to be a black & white one, and I then let myself be persuaded by Flupper1 to add a coloured lighting, you can set in the script, with every colour you want

Una joya esta tabla, aguante Motörhead!... 

 

Gracias por el trabajo!

I am having problems with the music not playing. All music files (30) of them have been placed in my vpx music folder. I have l looked at the script but no changes were needed.  lines 85,86 and 94 o 130 and 125 were already as described in the instructions on this page. the music files play fine in a player but for some reason they are not playing in the table. what else can I do to get the music to work?

Are lines 85, 86 and from 94 to 130 "commented" (first image) or "uncommented" (second image), they have to be uncommented.

The table is playing fine thanks to the input from Batch. The table runs fine from vpx but for some reason I too am not able to get it to work with pinball popper. Popper will add the game but will not record backglass or playfield probably due to the fact popper is showing an error loading the table.
