plays great. ball felt a little light first 2 games, but i settled into it after that. im still terrible at this table though. Jinxy's FS settings are a great starting point

[greeze]

Thank you!

[nicco84]

Yes I had to edit FS settings too. Field of view, scale and offset...my values are really close to jinxy values. For a revision or other updates I suggest to edit them.
FS settings apart.... WOAH!!!!! What a great table!!! With selectable mod!
Really good job! I played it all nite long... Until neighbors of underfloor call me

Hrm.. You have the final VPX release with scripts unzipped to the scripts folder?   Does the ROM run in test mode when you run the setup for VPinMame?   I'm not really sure what would give that error.

Need to update VPX i still have an old version

This release feels strange to me.  There seems to be an extra right push to the ball I haven't had in any other releases of this table.

I've just tried to play this table on my (WIP) cab. But it always starts in desktop mode.

 

In the video options cabinet mode is selected.

 

Do I have to adjust the values jinxy posted? Where can I find this config dialog?

ive had this aswell. I think its just ball spin affecting it on the VP10 tables. I haven't experimented enough with my nudge settings to figure out if it is spin in the physics or my nudge being set incorrectly. do you use a gyro or other nudge sensors in your setup?

I just ran the table upon extracting the file and starting it up.  I didn't touch any settings, so most likely no.

 

Taking a closer look, this table is not optimized for desktop.  It's meant for fullscreen with your head turned to the side 90 degrees.  Bah, there has to be an easy way to fix this!  I thought it would be as easy as simply figuring out the direction gravity is oriented in and just modify the table to accommodate that.

This is a great looking table and I'm hoping I can get it to play.  I am currently getting the error message below when pressing start.  The table loads, but won't play.

 

Any thoughts on what I can do?

the left up flipper isn't synchronized with the fall of the ball when the thing tries to aim the hole on the other side, please fix it

My main screen on my cab runs portrait mode.   See the 3rd post in this same exact thread for settings that would probably work for you.

I don't even have akicker in the code at all.  I would guess you either didn't extract the .vbs files to the scripts folder or you have them in the scripts folder and in the tables folder.  Choose one and extract the latest .vbs into that folder only.

All the older tables had a ramp that was activated at the same time as thing flips so it was practically a guaranteed hit every time. I have no ramp fakery in the table. The Manual reads it should only hit 60% of the time.

 

 It's not there "out of the box", but theoretically it should get better over time? Although I'm not sure if vpinmame emulates that "learning" and stores it or not.  Probably needs physics adjustments too...? I'd be willing to adjust if someone wants to send me a physical TAF to compare against! 

 

Maybe I'll setup some "thing training" to activate in the script to see if it actually does get better or not.

it was so accurate on other versions, i don't know how it works, there could be so many params to make it wrong, yeah, check other versions on how they are doing

[pkoslow]

Table keeps starting in Desktop? it is set to rotate like all other tables in video options.. does it need a script change?
