Thanks for releasing this nice table. Unfortunately after third ball lock table is crashing:

 

[balisaan]

Thank you very very much jpsalas, goldchicco and everyone else involved!  One of the best tables ever!    

 

Unfortunately for me the ball gets lost in the desk and doesn't seem to fix itself.

Here are my wheels for this table.
If you want more wheels made by me (more than 1.000), take a look here:

Or download them directly from the PinUp Popper mediadatabase.

The wheels below are reduced in quality, because of the very small uploadsize here.

Yes, I can confirm this.

Variable ist nicht definiert "DollR.State"

Edited by Joey2001, 09 June 2020 - 10:13 AM.

[jpsalas]

That line can be removed. It was a refresh light that we needed in the earlier VP9 versions.

[goldchicco]

Delete line 4178 or  block it putting ' in front of the line

 

'    DollR.State = ABS(DollR.State -1)

I'm having issue on desktop where the game does not progress after first ball lock unless directB2S is running.

[balisaan]

Thanks sliderpoint works fine now after I unchecked 'Disable B2S' in the Preferences. 

 

I also love the DMD!!  Just wondering on desktop is there a way to increase the size of the DMD please?

[jeverds]

Thanks to everyone involved at the table.
Is there any DMD possibility for my third screen

[haggi]

Thank you for this wonderful implementation of the table.
The LUT-Options are great.

I have a question about a special light effect.

in vp9:



in vpx:



Is there a way to integrate the vp9 effect in vpx?
I like this look.

[jpsalas]

I guess you didn't read what I wrote about the disco light   I didn't managed to get the effect. I need to make new textures to get this effect in VPX using flashers. Maybe when I make a complete rebuild of the table.

 

About the DMD on the third screen: maybe changing the directb2s can you manage to do it, but is beyond what I know.

[haggi]

Sorry, I you didn't read what you wrote about the disco light

Still, it's a great table.

DMD for the 3rd screen:

right click on the backglass and make sure all the 3 voices are enabled

[Outhere]

Thanks to everyone involved at the table.

3 Screen set-up -- https://www.vpforums...e=7#entry346276

[gamemodder]

I also have a problem with my ball getting stuck under the desk it only happens when a certain mode happens.

[incclan]

Did anyone get the DMD on the third screen.  I did the "right click on the backglass and make sure all the 3 voices are enabled" 

 

That did not work.

 

And My 3 Screen set-up is good.  It just seems to be JP's tables I can't get the DMD setup correctly.  I have to use the Backglass screen and enable grill to get DMD.

 

Frustrating........

"...I didn't managed to get the effect. I need to make new textures to get this effect in VPX using flashers."

 

Interesting.  Out of curiosity is this one rare example where VP9 is superior to VPX?

what exactly would qualify as superior

 

the VP9 table used ramps for flashers;

 

VPX does not support alpha ramps

 

modify this code to work with flashers instead of ramps and you can get the disco ball

  FadeAR 2, DiscoLight, "backflasher_1", "backflasher_2", "backflasher_3", "backflasher_off"

Thanks 32assassin.  Superior as in either easier to code for or can produce a better effect.  Like for example Xbox 360 VS PS3.  PS3 had the better hardware and potential however according to many game devs the Xbox 360 was much easier to code for so the end result was a better effect therefore Xbox 360 was superior in that regard.  From what you say about VPX not supporting alpha ramps perhaps VP9 is superior in this specific instance but no doubt overall VPX is better unlike Windows 10 VS Windows 7 lol.
