very good table, but give me error for audio buffer

I see that.
VPX 10.7 has enhanced audio capabilities that VPX 10.6 does not appear to have.
Primarily VPX 10.7 can use multi channel audio in the backglass, and VPX 10.6 can not use it at all.

What i will do, is put up a 2nd version for VPX 10.6 with those specific sounds causing your issue redone in plain format.
Wont take me long.

If you are curious, i put the bells (which you cant even hear right now) in the backglass in the center speaker (If one exists, if not, windows will simply divide it between the left and right channels) so that it sounds like the bells are really mounted up inside the backglass.

I will have a VPX 10.6 friendly version uploaded shortly, thanks for letting me know about this.

If you have 5.1 or 7.1 audio on your PC and try the table in VPX 10.7, you will see what i mean about the bells.

Hi,  

I am having an issue with the second ball not coming out after the first ball drains.  

Scorpions sound fix got me past the sound errors.

Thanks

Dont change that from 0 to 1

that is not the fix, as that is not the reason for the error.
I just uploaded what is the cure for the error as the error is simply due to VPX 10.6 not being able to use an audio type that VPX 10.7 can.

All setting that to 1 does is turn on ROM sound and the table does not use the ROM sound.
The original author went to a lot of trouble to give the table good sounds.

As for the ball issue

I can not replicate that.

Make sure you have a good ROM
Try clearing the nvram for the ROM

Try clearing the pinmame config for the table

How do you switch the table from FSS mode to DT mode?

I'm a desktop user and while it would be cool to play the game in FSS mode, it comes up in portrait mode.

Thanks for the upload. I play borgdog's vpx version frequently. Will be fun to compare.

hi, sorry I before do not understand that you used vpx 10.7

there is already an excellent vpx version of this game. why do another one ? I mean good on you and all, but i don't get it...

The sounds are better without the rom.

But I am still having the ball issue after ball one is drained.  

It is not the ROM.  It works with the other version of the table.

Cleared nvram.

Cleared pinmame.cfg

I am using the table in a cabinet.  Fullscreen. No FSS. 

It seems like the ball is trying to come out but it is being rejected because the wire is moving near the eject point.  Maybe open the end a bit???

Thanks for your help
