The DMD looks white because the flasher called digitgrid is missing its image, the one called d_grid.

Awesome table but when loading it I get no music/Sound effects or DMD. Am I doing something wrong? The game plays great and I have the cabinet sounds (Flippers,bumpers ect) but thats it.

The table has all the sounds and music in the vpx file, so I guess you have the sound devices wrong configured in your VPX. Check your sound devices configuration in the VPX editor.

What a beautiful table Thank you very much. But sometimes the ball is trapped behind the two left captive balls and iI cannot proceed the game.

 

I'm using Version 4.01 with VPX 7.4.

 

Sorry. I tried to upload a picture but I don't know how to.

To add a picture you may use the "vpf imaget host", and upload an image and copy/paste the link for the forum.

 

See if you can upload an image with the locked balls, as there isn't any locked balls as I can remember in the table.

I see what you mean now :)  It never happened to me, but there are new versions of VPX, so maybe something changed, or there is a hole somewhere and the ball finds a way in there :) I'll check that.

Yes, a hole. That's my impression, too.

I forgot to say: I am playing tables in Cabinet-Mode with two screens. If that might be important for your bug search.

Thank you for your kind efforts.

Minor issue I noticed with 5.01... on the "extra ball" insert, the light and the insert are misaligned.

Somehow that light changed from a Classic light to a Halo light (!?). You can simply click on the light and change its type from Halo to Classic, but I have reuploaded the table with the light fixed. So, you can simply download the table again :)

Firstly, awesome table, many thanks.

I'm new to VP and I'm trying to run it on my ROG Ally in version 10.8.0. Rev2051

The internal screen is off, and it's plugged into a portrait 1440x2560 monitor. Plays perfectly, but I can only see the edge of the DMD to the left of the table. Is there a way to relocate the DMD?

Download the version which has the DMD on the apron, maybe that will work better for you. The table's name is JPs Ghostbusters Slimer v55_VPX8_Example DMD on Apron.zip

I have fixed the script errors and re-uploaded the tables :) Things happens when you change some script routines and forget to change some lines :)

I just downloaded the latest version. My last version was 4.0, the new version freezes while it’s loading. I have several other tables that have done the same thing. I corrected the problem in the script by setting to run on a real dmd, because that is what I have. I don’t see any choice like that to make the newest slimer run.  I’d really like to use the newest slimer.   Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe try cutting the dmd resolution in half in the script on line 1920 and 1921, the older version I had used 128x32 , this one it twice the resolution 256x64. Maybe resolution too high for your real dmd?  Just a though, anything is worth a try, it wont break anything.

One option would be to use a real LCD like the rest of the planet.  :tongue3:
