Happy birthday Scutters !

Yeah buddy happy birthday

[Thalamus]

Thank Thalamus.
I use rom center 3.7.1 and with an updated version of pinmame, it is easy to check which roms are missing files, or files in the rom are wrongly named.

Exactly

Happy birthday Scutters !

Yeah buddy happy birthday

 

 

 

Cheers guys!.   I did play a few games yesterday, Doctor Who was one of them but seems like that score didn't submit for some reason. Score was only 100m or something so wasn't challenging the current high scores for the week anyway.

 

As i thought, I suck at this table..   roll on next week!

Hi Guys,

 

New version is here

 PINemHi & PINemHi LeaderBoard v3.3.zip   4.5MB   7 downloads

 

The new version can be downloaded in the first post and here of course ...It's version PINemhi & PINemHi LeaderBoard v3.3

I would recommend to overwrite all files on previous install , maybe rename your old pinemhi.ini to have the paths and user and code easily copied to the new pinemhi.ini file

 

**********************
PINemHi Version 3.3
**********************
Added the following games to PINemHi LeaderBoard:
Apollo 13
Austin Powers
Batman Forever
Harley-Davidson (Stern)
High Roller Casino
Maverick
Monopoly
NFL
Sharkeys Shootout
Striker Xtreme

Added support for roms:
color rom support for spider-man and batman the dark knight
added some other roms for baywatch and lost in space and some that i've forgotten to write down.
also of course the roms for the new games

added features:
1) autorotate optimized, using preload of all the popups.
this makes sure that when playing a game the autorotate function will not affect gameplay

2) challenge, weeklychallenge and normal popups are not stacked anymore.
if you activate one the other popup wil disappear

3) extra background option added, this can be used to hide frontend images when pinemhi leaderboard for a game is on

4) PINemHi LeaderBoard ini file has been changed to recognize more roms , you can use Vpinmame 3.3 official version or sambuild 3.3 version or still also sambuild 3.2 version
roms should be recognized even if they have been given different (window title) names in different vpinmame versions.

5) more than 100 badges have been added to the system (all for special scores , like XX combos or XX Walkers Killed etc) for over 40 games
locked badge is now only 1 image

*Fixes
1) In a couple of games the badge-rewards were too easy , so I've adjusted them. (For instance South Park scoring badges)
2) Added a check on the special scores where only initials are the score (for instance playboy (stern), apollo13 and goldeneye and lots more)
This will check if the initials are different from the standard initials that are in for that game to prevent mistakes  
3) Star Trek (Stern) for st_162h and st_162hc roms combo's scores weren't the right address. fixed the adress for those 2 roms

 

Have fun

This Week it's The Machine: Bride of Pin*Bot

Just came to say I'm really having a nice time with the weekly challenges!  Not sure why everyone doesn't get on board with this software as it's just too fun to have challenges with the older tables!  I really appreciate what you're doing here, Dna!  

 

Also came to tout that you chose one of my top 5 games of all time.  BOP!  Let's see if I can stay on the leaderboard.  Dr. Who was a total fail.

>1bn?!..  wow. I guess it helps that it's a favourite table then!

This is gonna be another bad week for me. Early 90's tables i'm pants at.

[BrandonLaw]

So...I hate to reveal secrets but it's not that tough to light the 1bn club and then go for it.  Just keep control of both balls and shooting the ramp when you activate Mrs. Bot.  I believe in you.

Lol... isn't that the type of tip you should be giving out next Monday?! 

Cheers buddy - game on!

I don't understand either why not more people using this software. It is so easy to install, lightweight and works like a charm (if all is configured correctly)!

I will make some time (and room) to play this table this week. I've played this a lot on a physical in the past.
The score 1b, compared to the runner up, looks a lot !

I use it, just no time TO use it.

 

 

 

No time for a pinball run
No time for the table you send
Work has changed and made me cry
You need not wonder why
You need not wonder why
There's no time left for Me
No time left for Me

Nice score Brandon, and so soon!  I’ve only been able to hit the 1bln mark a handful of times, but I really like how this latest VPX version of the table plays. Very smooth and fast!  I’ll have to try a few more times over the week to see if I can hit that 1bln. I can see you now! Ha ha ha.

 

P.S. One of my favorites tables as well. What a great concept and layout from Williams.

I just think (for it's time) the ROM was just really well manicured.  I own  real pins and I'm too much a perfectionist to pull the trigger on buying this title.  I've seen 2 in-person and they just weren't up-to-snuff and it will be tough finding the right one, but bet it'll be in the collection hopefully sooner than later.  Funny how virtual tables don't wear, need wax, or need parts.

I have a small collection of real pins myself. Sing Along (gotlieb), Diner (Williams), and Jungle Lord (Williams).  I don't have room for more than 3, so I sometimes rotate them out after a few years. Except for Sing Along. It was a gift from my dad back when he owned a bowling alley and I just can't part with it.  Still in superb condition and plays awesomely well. I was quite excited when someone create the VPX version of it. ha ha.

Now I have to go get it! Good story and good memories to bode a fantastic hobby no matter if virtual or real.
