@Weisshund

 

"On the DMD though, i am not sure why your score would not be changing
My mistake, i accidentally turned it OFF when i turned off the desktop backdrop scores

Line 176 and 181
DisplayTimer.Enabled = number here
Delete both lines that turn the display timer on and off"

 

I commented out those 2 lines and my scoring is now working. Thank you. Thank you

Can’t wait for the Bigus mod!

Perhaps you should mod it yourself instead of making Bigus do all the work?

 

 

Cut from the backglass.

i don't understand about the Backglass, its very ok too !

 

 

Er, what backglass?
I just gave Halen's image and some ROM ID info one could use

I reuploaded also, so no one else will have to edit.

The timer was not needed, in cab mode, but then i added the DMD in case people wanted one
and the DMD needs that the timer keeps running.


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

B2S does not load automatically?
 
do you need to comment in the script for the backglass to work?

I'm so grateful for the time and effort that went into this table by everyone involved, especially @wiesshund!  Thank you to all the contributors who continue to make this hobby so rewarding. I'm always inspired by this community of very talented creators.

 

With that, I've remastered the highest quality version of the back glass provided, building a 2K version for my cabinet with the main area at 4:3.

Should work out nice.  Here's a preview...

Nice, love to see finished version

wish i knew how to make the score LEDs blank out during black hole

 

I also wish i could draw well enough to extend the original artwork to 16:9

... nice, but i think you should create it without Text on Glass (P1, 2, BIP, ...)

 

And in the middle, there are some "Light Spots" from the Background ?

That was the reason for me, to use the other one from Halen and optimized that, LED Fileds wasn't straight, ...

Thank you. Yes, a bit more work to do as this is 'in progress'. I re-built the LED Fields and am still cleaning up the all the "Light Spots".  Many hours in this so far, but my life is in Photoshop, this is what I love working on! :)

Final will be much cleaner (without Text on Glass)... just showing this as current composite.
I appreciate the tips!

Please consider making a 4:3 version.


It's impossible only if you believe so. ;)

Was having a nice ball one, completed black hole, was enjoying the light show, but then…. Nothing. The ball just stayed in the hole and never kicked out forcing a reset. I did not get a script error however. The only things I changed: I removed the background music and lut options.

Also, how can I change the ball from white to a regular ball image on this table? Other than that, this table has an amazing feel with it shots. You can really line up and take aim accurately.

When you knock down all the green, all the red and all the yellow targets, you then shoot for the black hole kicker. Sinking the ball will cause the table to black out and then give you a bonus then kick the ball out and resume play.

However; when I made the black out shot, I received the points, but the ball was never kicked out. Also, in terms of the ball, I changed the ball image and and scratches, and I changed the environment. Thus causing the ball to turn bright white.

Not sure what to tell you on environment and ball, you will have to experiment i guess?

 

Black hole event, i cant replicate, it is controlled by the ROM

Thanks for the update but I had to comment out Line 176 and 181 again to get the real DMD to work.
