Just curious why the table can't load up with vp 8.1..i was going to tinker and try to make it work with that.


Because it was built in (and for) VP9.12 and uses features that weren't available in vp8.

Sorry Doug, even the 4x3 table is using .PNG graphic images for the transparent part of the plastics so you need VP 912 in order to play it. Support for .PNG images was implemented in VP911 so many table authors are taking advantage of that feature to make realistic looking transparent ramps and other things that require transparency.

Can't you come out of retirement long enough to install VP9.12?

I really don't understand what you're trying to achieve here.

If it's a performance problem then you're going to find all kinds of other problems with the table as well, and the physics will be all off - so there's no point in bothering to getting it happen in vp8. You might as well rebuild it in 8 if that's what you want, and as far as i know, parts of the script will be a problem too.

sorry.

Just came across this table. It's really pretty and I enjoyed playing it. Loved the post-it high-score system :-)
Hope you're going to do some more tables. But many thanks for this one!

Thanks!

I do have a new Gottlieb wedgehead recreation, that's on the verge of releasing right now!
But only as FS B2S, at this point (and maybe longer)
Post-It™-technology included though…
