Any chance for support of the 7-digit ROM (such as PacDude's version does)?

[destruk]

It doesn't use emreels or lights for the displays, so you can change the rom game name and it'll instantly work just fine with the 7digit romset.

I thought rolling the score was part of the appeal

You'll find I'm a purist with recreations and like things as they were intended.

I don't care for that gravity setting. The ball seems to be made of lead on that setting, and appears too heavy. I've found somewhere in the 1.4 range more to my liking.

Thanks for the input, and feel free to change whatever settings you like. The play will be tweaked a little in a future update release, along with full alpha-numeric displays and improved lighting effects.

Hi Noah,

I kinda agree to where you are coming from with that leaden feel to the 1.667 setting, I have to say though that it differs from table to table, probably because some other settings like slope etc can lessen that feeling. I'll try that 1.4 and see how that works out. I should add also that I'm really not familiar with the feel of those pre-90's tables because those were before my active playing time, and I read somewhere that the modern machines have different slopes in comparison to the oldies. I'm still trying to get the EM-bug to bite me, because I get bored out of my mind playing those tables I really like the art though, I can relate to that....

I took me a bit to find the time to sit and give this great looking table a long session. Really enjoy what VP9 brings to older classic like this, plays great. And I don't mind the odd table being on the dark side. Fits in quite nicely beside PD's version of Viking from the same era. Excellent work gentlemen.

Amazing! The lighting is just how I like it! Dark table with beautiful ambient lights! Like a dark, smoky arcade with a machine in the corner far away from everyone else. Just the way it was meant to be played. You guys seem to "get it". I likened your Getaway table to Scapino, but this one really takes the cake. The reason is not only the angle, but his lighting always simulated a dark room so the table can shine. Look at his Mata Hari or Johnny Mnemonic table for instance. Yes, obviously the quality of his graphics are amazing, but it's not just about the sharpness of the art, but the ambience of the table. That's what I really, really love when I play these things.

You guys are really making VP9 stand out. The community is really luck to have you guys, let me STFU so I can play some more.

Hi. The error reads..

Line:0
Object required.: 'mSlingBump(...)'

I use the 7-digit ROM version but same error with 6-digit.
And Laptop is Sony Vaio 11,1" dual core 1,2GHz ULV.

[Noah Fentz]

mSlingBump is nowhere to be found in this version.

What version are you trying to play?

[UncleReamus]

Also what version of VP are you running? This sounds like you are using VP8 to me?

[TheMcD]

mSlingBump is nowhere to be found in this version.

What version are you trying to play?

I thought mSlingBump is always called upon when playing a VP9 table - to me, that error is a surefire sign that you should be using VP9, but aren't.
