Hello thewool,

I used his playfield version, he posted earlier in this thread in my nealtron-conversion and it looks amazing. If then the plastics are in high detail too, it would be great.
I am almost done with the table. There are some issues with translucent walls and ramps but if I am not able to resolve them during the weekend, I will release anyway.
It is quite hard to maintain two versions of the table, but Bubleheads wrecking ball (used in nealtrons table) is too nice to miss it. Maybe I will receive permission to use it for the release version.

Regards
Michael

Hello Michael,

that sounds great couldn't you just see how Nealtron coded the wrecking ball and adapt it for your table?

Either way, it will be great to see what you've come up with.

[mfuegemann]

It is done. You can find version 1.0 here:

@thewool: I will do this, but I have to understand the approach first. At the moment, as with destruks wrecker ball code, I am busy enough, not to destroy anything while changing the table.

Regards

Michael

Hi Michael, is the table not for all? I can't download the table.

[mfuegemann]

Hi Bolt,

there are no restrictions set. I was able to download it just now. What errors occur, or at which stage does the download break?
Maybe my upload still had to be approved.

Michael

Great version, would you build a desktop version, please?

[Flying Dutchman]

Michael .. Great update! Had a ball of a time all through last night!

Changed a few things like flippersettings / speed / plunger to personal preferences, but one word .. Great Table!

Cheers,
FD.

Was there not a complete playfield redraw done for this table? I remember in Nealtron wip thread that oooPLAYER1ooo was doing one. I have not checked out your new wip but I'd figured I'd ask as if not it would be a great addition to your table.

[mfuegemann]

Hello Sandro,

I already asked Player1 for his permission but he was not able to answer until now. And yes, the redraw looks fantastic on the table...

I'm with Bolt, eagerly waiting for the almighty desktop version...

[mfuegemann]

Hi,
I will check, if a desktop version is possible with reasonable effort. As my development rig has serious performance issues (despite hardware specifications), I am more fond of my cabinet at the moment.
But one never knows, christmas is not far away.

Regards
Michael

[Harakiri]

I'm more than willing to test it out if needed...

[bolt]

Thank you for the christmas info Michael.

[mfuegemann]

Hello Bolt and Harakiri,

it is possible. I will finish version 1.3 and then use this version to convert it to 4:3 (see picture).

Regards
Michael

Hi there,

I have a suggestion for this table after playing it for a bit. I'm using the Mot-ion game controller and sometimes if I nudge real hard it causes the wrecking ball to go wildly out of control. In some instances I have actually activated multiball because my nudging caused the ball to hit the car targets. Not sure if its possible but can the wrecking ball physics be configured to ignore the mot-ion's nudging or at least tone it down? I feel like a cheater when I can give the cabinet a few good whacks and get multiball . Thanks !

What for fantastic news. Thank you Michael.
