Ooohh we're getting close!!!

Love that animation tipoto. Do those ramps really look like that in VP!?!?!

Thanks!
I did the animated PNG with 2 screen-shots coming from VP during a game, so yes the ramps look like that.

In this table there are 9 flashers and most of them are situated in very complicated places. This one is under the transparent ramp and its light affects 2 transparent bumpers close to it. It was particularly painful to get the flasher working along with the transparency and keep the graphic transitions smooth with the rest of the table.

That's impressive.. So are these ramps transparent, are are they set up as solid? Can you see the ball behind them?

Can't wait for this release my friend Glad you got some experienced testers on board to perfect it.

Yes they are transparent, with and without the flasher on. You can see the ball in the last picture I uploaded, when the flasher is on.

Next step - get the VP devs to use VRAY as VP's built in renderer

Thanks! I'm still working hard on it, I prefer avoid giving any release date because every single step takes longer than what I was expecting...

I'm currently working on the sounds effects.
I was done with the gameplay last Friday, but the testers don't have the new version yet and I don't know if they will like the changes or not. I will send them the new beta once the table will be finished for my part, then I will adjust it if necessary. That way I can focus on the gameplay and their notes.

Also, I completely changed the Training Mode, I'm really happy with it now, it's perfectly integrated with the table! It's amazing, I really love this feature!

I have another idea that I want to test, It's the possibility to activate the arcade room ambience (just an ambient sound). I have the sound prepared, but I need to test it and see if it worth it or if it's too disturbing. Of course it would be disabled by default.

Sorry for the wait, it shouldn't be too long now ^^

I understand that. If you need another tester, send my way as i'm familiar with the real table, & played the 3 Vp8 versions, VP9 version & FP Ultra Edition. Currently testing VP9 Haunted Mansion for Maceman, & FP Big Bang Bar. Just recently tested FP TFTC & Newhon Lite. I can always work this one in, only if you want. If not, that's cool. Rock On!

Thanks!

I've just sent the last beta to the testers... Hopefully they will like it, for my part the table is done, I'm just waiting for their feedback in case I have to adjust something or fix a bug.
So maybe the table will be released this weekend or next week (I don't believe it myself!!!)

[rcadefrk]

Care if i have a crack at it? I'm currently testing JP, Flintstones, & Big Bang Bar for FP. Only if you want to send it of course

It's going to be a very nice weekend!

Looking forward!

I think I speak for everyone when I say we all appreciate your hard work! Thank you so much!

The arcade room ambiance idea sounds interesting. Something new to play with! The training mode thing sounds intriguing, too. Looking forward to seeing it all in action - whenever it's ready.

Merci !

J'attends toujours les retours des 2 testeurs, j’espère qu'ils ne vont pas me dire que la physique ne va pas du tout ou qu'il y a de gros bugs. La dernière version que je leur ai envoyer a été basée sur le gameplay, le bruitage complet de la table, le fix d'un gros bug qui traine depuis plusieurs mois et le training mode que j'avais implante depuis longtemps, mais que j'ai complètement refais.

La table est prête dans l'absolu, mais selon les commentaires que j'aurais, il est possible que j'aie besoin de bosser dessus quelques jours supplémentaires.


Thanks!

I'm waiting for the feedback from the testers, I hope they won't tell me the physic is completely wrong or there are huge bugs. The last version I sent them was based on the gameplay, the sound effects, bug fixes (I had to rebuild the auto-plunger) and the training mode which was implemented for month ago but I wanted to redo it differently.

The table is ready in absolute terms, but depending on the comments I will receive, it could be possible I need a few more days.

Can't wait, this is a huge table

What's the name of the explicit rom? It is not labeled among the 7 or 8 that are there.
