0Cool makes it onto the honours board!! Well played matey 

[zeckenheimer]

Till the end of this challenge I couldn't figure out how to do the big points (1billion was so far away) ...collected comboshots, did moveyourcar several times and other of the bonuses that are possible to achieve. Also did the multiball a few times, but it remaims a mystery to me how to catch the jackpot that you`re building up at the bumpers??? Nevertheless it's great fun to play this table cause you can generate points nearly everywhere and partly at the same tiime.

CFTBL Jackpot - hit the tunnels in multiball (flashing yellow targets) until you find the girl, then hit snackbar to rescue her, and then snackbar lights jackpot. Not sure if you have to hit left/right ramps to light jackpot or super jackpot too (i never read the rules, just ended up  hitting the ramps along the way in MB like you do).

Great job, OCool!  So close to the bn.  He's on the board and the competition is real!  Glad to have you.

 

Can't say I even came close as time wasn't on my side this week, but now I know how to play this game well, and that's priceless...

 

SO JOKE'S ON Y'ALL.  I WIN.

You kicked @ss on Star Trek, Scutters! Congrats, my hats off to you, sir.(I played it like 100 times trying to beat your score....what a great fun table, nice work on JPSalas's version as well !!!!!!)

 

Having trouble with Jurassic Park at the moment, guys. No score registry on my rom. A txt file is made by the database but no scores are written. Tried updating the rom, no luck. Solutions anyone?? Fun table to play. 

Best of luck to you all.

Hi 0Cool,
You are probably using the unofficial mod rom..600
The scores are completely different for that..and isn't supported at this point.
Probably with the next version...the 513 version rom should definetely work

[wiesshund]

The key to playing Jurassic Park is..

To have a good frame

Thanks mate

 

And well played gpstevens getting out of that 2nd place spot of his on Shrek the week before. That's a table i won't be rushing bask to play again anytime soon, great VP remake but just not for me!.

[Mancave]

DnaDisturber, thanks/dank je...Got it...forgot to change the directory in the .ini after a fresh 'Baller installer'  installation (Nailbuster's installation uses a different folder structure). Back on board...but Wiesshund.... OMG how!!! Nice target score for the next few days. Good job. ;-)

[wiesshund]

Scutters Brandon and Mike are just going to leave me sit here and lull me into a state of false confidence
and then going to attack at the last minute, aren't they?

[Mike DA Spike]

Sorry mate. Was busy with 2 criticals at work this week and also in progress for coding an update of our pinballx databasemanager.program.
And why the hell you ask Scutters? If he plays, he will be on top.

You don't have to fear for me, as I'm always on the bottom of the list

Hadn't powered on the cab for a week, got some updates done today and thought i'd give JP a go...   

 

That's a bloody huge score weisshund -  well played sir, no false state of confidence there!

 

Might give it another bash tomorrow but i can't see me doubling my score just to get anywhere close to you.

Do like i did
everytime the game was going badly, i just held escape and restarted LOL

about 1000 times.

Beer might help, but i didnt have any

 

 

I was testing 64bit vpx for viability, well more 64bit vpinmame thant vpx, as pinmame was supposed to have issues in 64bit with stern roms

so i set up with 64bit vpx, and freezy's and pinmame and b2s server.
And then they said you had to play the table for a while for the errors to start happening, so i took stern table and set it up to auto play itself

and i left it play for over 3 hours

 

The good part is, there were no errors at all and the DMD never went out of sync

The bad part is auto play made me feel totally inadequate

 

(ugly pink stuff is part of the auto flippers, i forgot to give it a transparent material like the upper flipper)

 

[scutters]

Is that auto play firepower style?..  careful with that, you'll be bringing the leaderboard into disrepute!.  Bloody impressive though, guess we're all just crap.

 

Nice win for you last week anyway, streets ahead of the rest of us!

[BrandonLaw]

Sorry I haven't been around much...life and whatnot.  Great win Scutters Weisshund!   Nice to see you on top!  I logged in to play a bit on Saturday and was like holy fuck no I'll never get that score and I think the game just gave me Tri-Ball out of pity every game lol.  Took my 5th? place and walked away haha.  GOTTA BE ON THE BOARD SOMEHOW.  Even if it's 1$, Bob.

 

I'll try harder this week. lol.

[Mike DA Spike]

Congrats Wiesshund with last week challenge!
You where far away of the rest.
Even double score of Scutters !
Impressive

 No not as intelligent as firepower's auto play
this was to keep a table actively running for a very long time, but not mean to look intelligent or entertaining at all.

it actually looks pretty stupid to watch

but it was only hacked together to test 64bit pinmame for issues (for which, for the present 3.4 build of pinmame, i could find none)

 

no fear of that going to the leaderboard, even if pinemhi was installed and running on that PC
cant log a game that does not end, and that table cant end because it cant lose a ball, it was still on ball 1

 

So now i have my normal machine set up with 62bit vpx 10,7, 64bit vpinmame 3.4, 64bit b2s server and of course 64bit freezys and flexDMD

So far, 0 issues, though i can not test DOF, i dont know of a way to test that without actually having DOF.

bah, you guys didnt play and i had all day, literally

[wiesshund]

pinemhi seems to have no issues with 64bit either

 

just played a legit, but poor, game of AFM and it posted to the site.

 

damned work kept interrupting and VPX does not unpause very smoothly on the laptop

[BrandonLaw]

Yo, 0Cool....you're too close for comfort there, Haas.
