Great build thread, the machines look fantastic! This was my first read thru so perhaps I've missed it but is there, or will there be playfield glass?

Cheers,
Phlash

That's a mighty fine looking cabinet what about the pictures of the backbox you promised me?

[zany]

Blashyrk....can take what ever photos  you want!
Can you be more specific of what you want to see!??!

So David managed to put the plunger on top.

This is not creating problems with the screen?

[zany]

Yes he did...it is crazy close though!
Me and Magnus didn't want the plunger at the top, because it interferes with the launch button to much.
Ok...it looks way better with the plunger on top though!

[Pinball999]

Well, I'm not going to argue with that

I'm lucky that Zeb solution was not existing when I made my cab, it made my choice easier to make

Well done BTW! How much time do you think will be necessary before it's finished?

[zany]

Well....as many says.....a pin cab will never be finished.....but fully playable....i would guess a couple of months or so!

[Pinball999]

You're right

I should have say until you stop opening it and spend all your time playing it

I still need to install my flashers and do the artwork, since two years

[zany]

Hahah...hopefully we will do those parts pretty soon...artwork and flashers...and the rest!

[zany]

Some more stuff mounted on my cab tonight!

[zany]

Fuzzel....haha, well it is just temporary!

[fuzzel]

[zany]

Don't worry Zany ... I didn't installed yet my set of flasher bottom of the cab... I'm still installing tables and PinballX media after more then a year, it's going slowly but surely.  

 

I started to code a small tool in AHK and it turn out to become useful so far to quickly add stuff.

 

1: Add table and media files with drag and drop depending where you drop on table frame

2: Take screen short 

3: Grab video on of 3 screen with ffmpeg external tool

4: Work in LAN so I can Update CAB as well as from my PC upstairs

5: quick search of table

6: Play and Edit of table with CRC check to update modified version

7: Cleaning function to move unknown media

8: Find and create list of missing media to easily find what is missing

9: auto rebuild of XML database based on specific table name example: Any Title (Gottlieb 1977) (VPT Table creator)(VP revision)(extra info)(table version)

 

  ... well it's nothing perfect yet and really adapted to my need and personal setup but at least no more need to stay up in front of cab to install anything. A real spaghetti coding script with probably millions or bug hehehe well it's at least a start

 

here is a small video sorry body I'm not experimented in media sharing LOL

Can you share the tool? look awsome!

Like explain it's nothing near to be portable to all but if you want the source You can try to adapt it to your  setup but I cannot offer any warranty on the success it's trial and error bug constantly and It use my other personal script that run my VP table from external so if you still want it I can share it other then that I can try to make it more portable and release it later when it's looking more stable.
