I am only a Desktop Table user, so I really have no idea how to help you with this problem.

Perhaps someone like Outhere will know how to help you, as he really seems to know alot about these types of DMD queries, and is always helping others.

How does one save the chosen LUT?
Every time the game opens it's reset to the standard LUT.

 

Other than that it's an amazing piece!

EDIT:

I think I missed the Load Lut command in script.

Will update table.

Can't believe I missed that!!

This table and the Greedos Cantina table was reported as broken by someone who just joined VPForums 5 days ago.

I assure you this table and Greedos Cantina table are not broken.

I would encourage those who report tables as broken, to at least state the problem they are having in the tables support topic.

Hard to know what is broke when they dont state the problem they are having and just click "broken", with no explanation.

Carry on.

I'd suggest not reporting a table broken when it works for 1000+ other people

cause it aint the table that's broke


If you feel the need to empty your wallet in my direction, i don't have any way to receive it anyways

I sent a message asking what the problem was, and stated I would be glad to help them get both tables up and running for them.

I am sure they are not the first person to report tables broken, possibly not knowing where the support topics are, and I am sure they won't be the last.

Regardless, I am here to help everyone, including the newbies.

Carry on.

I was the one who reported it as broken, because it happens very often, that files are not downloadable, even if i press F5 several times, so i think this server has some bad issues (its also too slow btw, and it has nothing to do with my connection).
Then i report it as broken and one second later it is downloadable again. I can make some screenshots next time if you like, so i can proof that i dont make fun of this.

cause it aint the table that's broke

 

Then the webmaster of this site should consider upgrading the bandwitdh / capacities. because this is no fun anymore. Even the download speed is way too slow.
What download speeds do you have ?
What browser are you using ? I use Chrome,

If it's a download issue, then specify that in the report. People don't like the implication that their work is no good.

I've seen similar to the issue you're talking about, where the download link goes stale - always fixes after a refresh of the table page, even when I was bingeing new tables. Maybe you just got unlucky and were trying to get stuff during a DDoS wave?

You dont flag an author's work as broken because you are having download issues, especially that no one else is having.
That is not what the broken flag is for.

 

Now you make it so anyone coming to look at the table sees a big THIS TABLE IS BROKEN IT DONT WORK flag on it
and they walk away

 

If 1000 people have no issue downloading but you do, then the problem is not the web site

 

Maybe try doing a full browser cache clear, for All Time, not just Last Hour?

 

Download speeds seem fine, it is a free website after all

Are you ponying up the cash for noah to install multiple redundant DS3 lines?
Cause that doesn't fit in my budget for sure.

There's no need to apologize sir  ;) 
The things you do are very appreciated.
And only missing one silly item in such a complex script already makes you Luke Skywalker  :otvclap:

Just updated so now the your Lut choice is loaded next time the table is run.
