Definitely a problem in the middle of that left ramp.  I plow into something invisible about 50% of the time.  Other than that, I think the table is coming along nicely.  It has always been a favorite of mine.

If it is where the 2 ramps meet... Ramps can now be one continuous ramp with each point having a specified height, so it might be worth it to change the two ramp setup used into one ramp

[wrd1972]

I turned the two piece ramp into a single ramp. Man what a pain in the ass setting the individual height increments. Anyways, the ramp seems to be behaving like it should. Latest rev is up for testing. If anyone sees any weirdness with it, please let me know. If its good to go, I want to finesses it a little more for the final release.

Not sure if I've goofed here but the latest rev seems to still have the two piece ramp with the collision issues.

error 404

No Dozer, I dork'd the upload again. I am going to start adding designation to the file name so I can better ensure I upload the right file.

New rev is up now.

Looking great and a lot of fun to play!  I had the ball get stuck in a couple of places.  Photos attached (I think).

 

[BobAlbright]

I also had the ball get stuck in the far left lane---looking good so far!

[ClarkKent]

If you like - I made a new photo stitched playfield with more exact colors and details (fits almost perfect over the old one):

I have the left lane stuck ball issue, as well.  Two piece ramp issue seems resolved.

Ball stuck issue at the left wire ramp should be fixed. As well as the one in the MM.

 

CK,

I will add that nicer looking PF when the table is done.

Thanks

 

Latest rev is up.

I have a solution for the sidewall and the siderails : use a primitive; if you have problems i can create it for you, I also noticed that the environment image is missing

Im not sure what an environment image is. But if you dont mind sending it and the rails, I will gladly play with them.

Thanks

Since you can't receive new PMs, I've sent you a PM in the other forum

download link don't work

[wrd1972]

I checked it and appeared to work for me. Might have been dropbox screwing it up this time. I re-pasted the link just in case.

 

ninizzu,

Got your message. I will check out the objects. Many thanks.

I also cleaned out my message box.

[ClarkKent]

After considering much I decided to make a non-distored right aspect-ratio playfield from the photos I have.

 

This one is correct as it can get from photos. You should really use this one and reposition the objects - then it should play like the real machine.

Update guys.

I have replaced the PF image with a newer higher res image from Clark Kent. It looks much better but it required replacement of nearly every element on the table so some more testing will be required. So far, I am not seeing any bugs or stuck balls. The apron has been greatly improved now that I am starting to figure out basic image editing. My goal is to have the blue apron and white apron switchable as an option.

 

Two things you guys can help me with.

• Can someone please place the LED scoring displays on the desktop view and send me a link so it can be added. No clue how to do this.
• How can I get rid of that weirdness with the pink wall on the clear ramp entering the mixmaster. Cant figure that one out either.
• How can I fix that crazy ball rebounding on the flippers. Its very inconsistent.

Please report back any bugs. New rev is posted.

Enjoy

Bill

A small bug - the ball gets stuck on the left ramp right after the ball is kicked out.

[bolt]

Thank you for the update.

The DT version looks perfekt but I got the same ball stuck error as ClarkKent.
