Fantastic!!!!  UncleWilly/randr, you guys did an awesome job on this, it looks great!  Thank you thank you!!!!

 

You weren't kidding about the PC killer though.  I really have to drop the settings to get it to play on my desktop machine (in FS mode) I think it will do fine on my Cabinet machine though, if not I will be upgrading hardware again. LOL!

 

I think mine is just the over all size, as the LP version fails to load as well.  I have the same problem with the new South Park a double whammy of a 1 gig video card and 2 gigs ram.  My cab machine should handle everything just fine.

yea i only get 45fps on this one and 75fps on the low one.. looks amazing tho... Time for an upgrabut does it play smooth? I get similar

but does it play smooth? I get same FPS as you but plays perfectly smooth

 

the lower one at 75fps plays good with just micro studder here and there but this one is pretty bad... 

I might try to lower some setting and report back.. :)

Looks great and plays good on my cab.  I'm cheating though as I have a beast of a system on my cab just for reasons like this.

 

Thanks Randr for the 3D work.  Saw that in another thread.  The updates to this table are awesome and the 3D images make it that much better.

So far the best I can get is 47FPS. Are you guys listing the FPS or Avg FPS?

 

I've been playing around with settings for the last hour and that was the best I came up with.

You probably will not gain any fps...the odd thing is even at low fps it will play fine. I would go by visual stutter not fps

Try the low poly version. I double my fps using that table. Should be playable for you.
The download is available as my regular mb table update.

That version has less 3d dynamic models

I installed the low one and is there anything i can decrease or change to make the table run better  on my cab? Getting some stutter during multiball. Looks amazing though!

Wow, even though the LP version shows double the FPS, the stutter is really bad on my setup. The PCKiller Edition plays much better.

This is one sweet table!  A massive improvement on the previous version.  Thanks!

but does it play smooth? I get same FPS as you but plays perfectly smooth

 

I get the same framerates but I see some ball stutter on both versions.  Looks amazing, but just doesn't play smoothly.  Any suggestions on what to do to fix the stutter?  I'm running an i5-3570, 8 gigs of ram, an nvdia gtx 650 ti 2gig (dedicated to the playfield) and windows 7.  First table I've seen any stutter on.  Unclewilly suggested adjusting the vsync.  Mine's set to 0 right now - is there a more optimal setting?

 

EDIT:

 

After setting the VSync value to 1 (which I guess is Auto?) both version of the table run much more smoothly.

Amazing Update.

But Stutter on the table on both Version...

 

Cry cry Cry

 

 I'm running an i5-3570, 8 gigs of ram, an nvdia gtx 650 ti 2gig with XP System.

 

More than 300 Tables on my Cabinet no Stutter at all...

Now the First Table that makes me Crazy....

 

Hope there is a Solution to fix that Problem...

 

The Table is so nice so clean top Work.....

Almost wanted to write that both new tables don't play smooth with my i5 3570K, 8GB and 660GTX TI and I stick with the already good looking older version :  Monster_Bash.VP9.V1.1.uw.FS.LowRes.zip.

Hardware must be ok to run all tables smooth....I can run Battlefield 4 on Ultra settings and I can't play a pinball game with this rig ?

There was no stuttering but the ball moves, I don't know, strange compared to the older version which runs perfect.

I compared all the settings from the old and new table and I see that all of the Physics & Graphics, Dimension & Slope and Flipper Physics options are changed, so it bounces more then the older one.

 

But after I read the tip from Ark Malmeida about the VSync option to change the Adative VSync option from 0 to 1 (normally you can change between On or Off and because the option "1" is the "auto" setting I didn't realise it is the On setting)

the table played a lot better...still needs to tweak the Physics settings I think.

 

And one more thing (constructive criticism)....isn't there too much white lightning at the skill shot area ? I can't hardly see which light is on or off :

And do I really have to delete my nvram ? Can I replace it after a couple of games ? I don't want to loose my High Scores.....

This is the strange thing. I only get between 55 and 65 fps on this version and it plays smooth for me
I7 3.4 ghz
16 gg ram
760 ghzcurrent beta drivers.
Any micro stutter if I switch to vsync on auto stutter dis appears

The low poly version doubles my fps.

But this is the strange thing.

The low poly version plays smooth for me on my Lenovo yoga 2 pro
I5 2.6 ghz
2gb ram
Intel onboard graphics 4000

So what is causing the stutter and low fps is beyond me.

As even testing with all the models made static prerendered didn't hardly change the fps as can be seen in the low poly version where the only dynamic models are the Drac, bride head, mummy lid and frank.

The alpha gi and flashers are not any more then say the cv platinum table.

So not really sure what to tell people.

Try vsync set to autonewest nvidia drivers
