Download Heavy Metal Rowamet 1983 VPX 4.0

Weisshund, thanks for the table! The issue I'm having is that I can't edit the script to select settings to play. . I can highlight a number but it won't allow me to change the value. Any thoughts?

er, that is very odd

VPX has no function to make the script read only.

Try exiting VPX

then open VPX directly not from a front end, just run VPinballX.exe, and have it open the table, but not run it, cause you can not edit if the table is running.

Then click the script button, and see if you can edit it then?

I truly love seeing this table evolve!

Hoping for a PUP pack someday. 

Great work!

Thank you again.

I myself probably will not make a PUP pack, i do not use nor have PinUP, so it would be a little hard for me to make and test one.
But you could make one easily.
Remove the FLexDMD and UltraDMD init subs from the script

then do exactly what this says to do with it

' COPY EVERYTHING BELOW TO THE TOP OF YOUR TABLE SCRIPT UNDER OPTION EXPLICIT

'****** PuP Variables ******

Dim usePUP: Dim cPuPPack: Dim PuPlayer: Dim PUPStatus: PUPStatus=false ' dont edit this line!!!

'*************************** PuP Settings for this table ********************************

usePUP = true ' enable Pinup Player functions for this table
cPuPPack = "pup-pack_name" ' name of the PuP-Pack / PuPVideos folder for this table

'//////////////////// PINUP PLAYER: STARTUP & CONTROL SECTION //////////////////////////

' This is used for the startup and control of Pinup Player

Sub PuPStart(cPuPPack)
If PUPStatus=true then Exit Sub
If usePUP=true then
Set PuPlayer = CreateObject("PinUpPlayer.PinDisplay")
If PuPlayer is Nothing Then
usePUP=false
PUPStatus=false
Else
PuPlayer.B2SInit "",cPuPPack 'start the Pup-Pack
PUPStatus=true
End If
End If
End Sub

Sub pupevent(EventNum)
if (usePUP=false or PUPStatus=false) then Exit Sub
PuPlayer.B2SData "E"&EventNum,1 'send event to Pup-Pack
End Sub

' ******* How to use PUPEvent to trigger / control a PuP-Pack *******

' Usage: pupevent(EventNum)

' EventNum = PuP Exxx trigger from the PuP-Pack

' Example: pupevent 102

' This will trigger E102 from the table's PuP-Pack

' DO NOT use any Exxx triggers already used for DOF (if used) to avoid any possible confusion

'************ PuP-Pack Startup **************

PuPStart(cPuPPack) 'Check for PuP - If found, then start Pinup Player / PuP-Pack

then go through the script and replace all of the

UltraDMD.CancelRendering

and
UltraDMD.DisplayScene

and put in 

PupEvent ###

in place of the ultraDMD lines

Like PupEvent 301, for what ever your scene 301 is

To avoid conflicting with DOF events, i would start your pup events at 300, far away from any DOF stuff

That worked!  Thanks for the advice. One question regarding the flippers. Are they supposed to have like a ghosting effect? I thought maybe because I had to select the Ultra DMD option, there might have been a performance issue with my system, but I don't see any lag or anything else throughout the table.

Ghosting?

There is a flash at the flippers
and they have a shadow

Do they appear to be lagging to you?

Do they still seem to lag if you run the table in mode 0 ?

Greetings!

I've downloaded and installed this amazing table and music in the new folder but often get this error...

BASS music/sound library cannot load 'C;/VisualPinball/Music/HeavyMetal/HM-Heavy-Metal.mp3' 

(error 8:BASS_Init has not been successfully called)

Please advise and THANK YOU for a childhood pinball dream coming true.

Cheers!

Did you put the music in C:\Visual Pinball\HeavyMetal\ or just in C:\Visual Pinball\Music ?

It has to go in the former

Also, do you know what version of VPX you are running?
Is it a version less than 10.6.1?

Last thing that i can think of is perhaps the codecs on your system dont like the way the mp3 was encoded but you can fix that easy enough
use the program audacity and drop all the mp3's into it (yes all at the same time)
and then just click file, export multiple, and pick mp3, and point it at the existing folder

It will re-encode the mp3's in what ever way your PC finds player friendly.

You can also turn up the volume on them before exporting, just use the normalize effect, and set it to 0 decibels, and apply that to all the tracks
(just do control + A to select all)
