Right, some tables don't work well in vp9.9.0.  Have you tried this table in vp9.2.1?

I don't have that version on my computer now.  I will look for it and download vp9.2.1 standalone file.

Due to lack of response, i checked and found that this EM table, Hang Glider, its EM Reels will work and be visible under VP 9.0.9 fine.

 

I have tried a mod version of this table under VP 9.2.1 and still does not show reels when playing.  Any ideas why?

Is the show emreels check box checked on the backdrop options screen.

Also i think alpha objects will show overtop of the emreels due to the rendering order. Not sure though as i dont use emreels

That table uses textreels which are not supported in VP9.9 for sure.  I guess best bet is to play the table with the version of VP that was available 13 years ago :)

Sadly, yes. But not fatal...

http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=2997

 

Some will need to add this to your Visual Pinball folder to be able to run some EM Tables as well.  I could not find it here but the EM support file is available at IRPinball website at http://irpinball.org...RE WolfCams.zip.

 

I still havent the know-how to convert the table to 9.9.0 version yet.

Support for Text-EMreels has been removed in some VP version. It doesn't say which one in the changelog.txt - just that it's officially not supported in VP10 anymore.

 

Use Table/ImageManager to add this image to the table:

Then change the EMReels from ReelText to ReelImage and assign the new image to them. Now the scores work again.

Thanks MaX for the tip on EMReels now it is working and displaying correctly.

EM's get a lot of play on my cab, we haven't had access to real pins in years around here, so most friends are more familiar with the EM type play, I do like the sticky note high score feature though, your tables are great
