Flash Gordon (Bally 1981) [FS 9.x DX9 FS cabinet release]

This is the last update for a while on this table, because Blackwater 100 is nearly finished, and I already started another table. So I want to close this project.

First of all: You need a DX9 version of VP, the table doesn't work under DX7.

Because I never owned any machine, more or less all resources like sounds, images, and so on were "borrowed" from already released tables. So the credits go to:
 
Shadowsclassic, Naboodiver, Arngrim, dboyrecords: Thanks for all the testing
Scapino: Many Sounds, lamp matrix, DIP switch routines, some very good ideas and tons of other stuff
JPSalas: Lamp routines, flash routines, some sounds
Koadic: Plunger code and images
Noah: nudging routines
mfuegemann : Sounds and sound routines
Rascal: Sounds
The table is fast... Because I lost the ball very quick each time I played the table, I changed the flipper length a little bit and adjusted the position of the posts near the outlanes.

Have fun!

Thank you. Great work.

Congrats to your first table. The ball is much too fast for my taste so I changed the backdrop settings to make it a bit slower:

Inclination 7

FOV 0

Layback 90

X Scale 1.5

Y Scale 2.1

X Offset -410

Y Offset -735

 

Gravity Constant 1.75

Contact Friction 0.005

Agreed

Yes, the table is fast.  However, during testing I watched and compared this table to every video of FG I could find, and in all the videos the table is very fast.  In fact Sindbad cranked it down some and I actually think this one is a tad slower than the real ones in the vids.  Anyone out there got access to a real FG that can compare?

First table? Great start buddy! Awesome job.

 

 

After the changes the plunger needs more power...

You're right---the plunger doesn't always shoot the ball far enough with the backdrop changes--and---sometimes the ball goes up far enough to trigger that popup and then the ball will get stuck behind it. BUT---agreed--very nice start for a "first table". Thank you

[lolo33]

Thanks love this table.

On start i have Script error on line 1088 "Controller.B2SSetData dofevent, dofstate"

 

And this problem on all the targets.

[arngrim]

Lolo, you don't use b2s.server as controller, you have only one screen?

[Sindbad]

Update is in work...

[lolo33]

Lolo, you don't use b2s.server as controller, you have only one screen?

Yes, but i selected the VPinMAME Controller.

And if i remove this line i can play, so not a big deal.

Table will not load. Line 1088 'Index is out of range'

Apparently you don't read my post.

Just remove this 1088 line or put a  '  in front of this line.

And to see the DMD, line 133, replace "Hidden=true" by "Hidden=false"

For those who get the 1088 error and do use backglass, rem the line as described above using ' then run the table and press F6, set the options, save the table and the remove the ' from line 1088, all should work.

Big Thank you for this table, really enjoying it!

 

 

I did have issues with ball shape and an impossible speed, couldn't see the ball half the time, however the settings above are spot on.  Ball still quick, but now I can see it!

 

Thaks again Sinbad, keep up the good work!

[randr]

Looks GREAT! thanks!

what post was that ? I dont see any post above with the solution. I see someone else has provided the answer though, so no worries

[jamiro]

Great work. I hope you build more tables. This table is crazy fast and hard. .
