Download Heavy Metal Rowamet 1983 VPX 4.0

 

 

 

Still no luck, FlexDMD is properly installed and registered. Works great with all of JP Salas' tables. ROM is good, freezy dmd all good also . Table starts beeps once then shuts down. Oh, well. Thanks for the reply. I'll just run it with the no dmd option. I have over 1000 VPX tables up and running.

 

I kind of can not help, i am asking specific things but getting no real answers to work with

I really like this table 1.2.0 and it plays great. Just one minor issue. I have to move a blank blocker DMD every time so i can see the Ultra DMD underneath. Then it plays as normal. Any idea how to fix this guys?

you might need to right click on your backglass and try the hide dmd options

to bad table looked cool.... but this flexdmd shit is for the birds. worked 1 game then nvram unclean

That is not flexDMD or any kind of fault

That is how i coded the table

It means you exited the table in an unclean state
shoot all the balls down the drain and let the table reset.
The DMD tells you exactly what to do.

Rowamet used old Taito hardware to build their tables.
The hardware had a power loss feature, if power was lost, when the table came back on, it booted up with the game still in play.
of course the physical ball had already gone down the drain, not exactly a great feature probably.
That feature is in the rom though, so can not disable it as far as i can find, so i made the table let you know.

If you dont exit the table in mid game, you wont even see the message

alternately, you can just delete the heavymtl.nv file from Vpinmame\nvram, which erases the power off state

This is probably better posted in the support thread

Is a great table and media pack! Seems nv is my only route as the table never resets after balls drained tried 10 games in row all nvram error. ROM sucks lol the music notice kills me lol.

all you have to do is shoot the balls down the drain until the rom triggers game over (which is how ever many balls pinmame says is left), and then it is reset and ready to go

but deleting the nv file does it quickly

It only does that if you exit the table when the game isnt over

Hi Weisshund,

first of all, thank you for your time spent on this nice table and for sharing it with the community.

To fix the nvram issue you can embed my patch that JPsalas embedded in his Taito tables.

For example, download the JPsalas' Shark - Taito 1982 table and take a look at the end of the script, there you'll get a section that he called: "NVram patch for Taito do Brasil tables by Pmax65"

Import that block of code and place the three calls NVramPatchExit, NVramPatchLoad and NVramPatchKeyCheck as per explained there in the remarks lines.

Then, just adjust the constant GameOverLampID to the ID number of the game-over lamp and the issue should be over.

The only thing that remains unfixed is that in case you exit the table with the ball not in the drain you'll lost the eventual record scored during that play session.

Not that bad I think.

In case of trouble fell free to contact me, of course.

Again thank you for this nice table.

Have a great day.

Massimo
