Hi, I hope that there will be a 4:3 desktop version of this?

[Sheltemke]

Good rest then Groni!

Perfect news you continue with Lotr and Twilight Zone on your list too.

Groni, I also have a pain in the neck - downloaded Banzai on my desktop as I couldn't wait now I can't stop playing!!!!

In all seriousness, congratulations on this release, you must over the moon with the final result I know it's your first table in a while but the quality stamp of your build is all there. Well done to you!!!!! Looks like such a complex build, just the PF layout in the editor gave me a headache, I couldn't even figure out how to remove the rails!!

p.s. your WIP list makes me quiver, a HD Twilight Zone makes me go weak at the knees please make it happen mate

Removing the Rails is simple by deleting the "5_Backdrop" in the Image Editor

Plays and feels great.
I only have some sound issues, where there are many sounds at once firing off, the sound gets garbled up even to a point where it gets silent.
This is the same at "highspeed" for some reason, but I can't find the link between those.

Great table...mostly plays great, but I've run into a bug!

I did the following:

Beat red hot, green machine, and blue beard, then missed yellow belly, went up to the top, hit the rank #1, then made the jump. Hit the hill shot again immediately and there was some lag where the ball just sat in the hole for about 10 seconds. Finally the ball got brought up to the 2nd playfield...I hit yellow belly and lit lock, and then hit the lock (top half of the hill) and got the "he's challenged the king" sound. After this, nothing happened. The 2nd playfield stayed up, and I can't do anything. Going to reset the game and see if I can repeat it.

normally after the lock, a second ball jump into the plunger lane. At the moment there is a ball in the Lane, the upper playfield dissapear. Never had that situation till now. The Playfield always dissapear
properly. The Delay on the magnet grabbing the ball also happens on the real machine sometimes. I guess it´s something in the software.

Could have been a fluke...I'm trying to reproduce it. I'll let you know.

This is growing on me -- the more I play it the better it gets. Like I said, it is involving/hypnotizing.

+1 for a desktop version (if it's possible ?)

[djmichaelbasic]

Was able to repeat and catch on video...uploading now.

This time the order was slightly different, but I still beat red hot before one of the lower 2nd playfield guys (Blue beard was last this time) which lit lock while still on the upper playfield. Now I'm going to test and see if it works when beating red hot last...that might help narrow down the bug.

Here's the video of the ball being locked and then nothing happening:

AWESOME, AWESOME TABLE! It is great. Thank you for all your hard work.

I only played a couple of quick games (had to go back to work) but also had the ball hang in the upper playfield. I never got close to beating Red Hot so that may help rule that out as a requirement for the bug. I Beat Yellow Belly and Blue Beard I think.

wow this looks and plays great \ had a bit of a problem with my pin wiz plunger \ if i pull the plunger too far back i get a script error \ not sure how to fix or if it was just me \ i enabled mech plunger and such just seemed odd

just throwing it out there

again it plays like a dream \ thanks so much for this

Just had an interesting brain fart...
Changing the HC5516 setting solved the clipping of the sound.
Thank you for this awesome table !

[djmichaelbasic]

This time I beat red hot last and had to hit the 2nd playfield again to get a lock, and once again, same deal. The 2nd playfield isn't going away on Lock.

Now, do I wait for the updated version, or just download this and play anyway when I get home.....
I'll download anyway.

Ok, sounds like the switch didn´t fire that turns off the upper pf. I hear in the video, that a second ball gets released. I will include 2 new things.

1. telling VP to turn it off in the moment the new ball comes out. At the moment there is a switch in the lane that turns it off.

2. adding also this command to the plunger key. so that even when it don´t dissapears with these two options, it will dissapear when you hit the plunger key.

First of... GTONI you did an amazing job on this table. Not only the main playfield but the complexity of the second playfield coming up is just amazing. Excellent job!

On #2... Can you make sure that pulling the plunger while the ball is being played on the upper pf does not make it disappear? It never fails that one of my kids comes up and pulls the plunger while they are standing there watching.

[GRONI]

Just hit you kiddies Hands when they do that Its just an option to make sure it turns off not later than you pulling the plunger.

Ok I will start an update by just adding an extra switch turning the pf off. I tested it now about a hundret times with the new switch, and it always turns off. Before that, I tested it without it, and
indeed it didn´t turn off from time to time.
