I dont remember making any changes to the old core it just worked. I might try and check for differences later just thought it would mention this for the cab users.

maybe you have to add the
ExecuteGlobal GetTextFile("ledcontrol.vbs")
at the end of the file?

Wow this thread got active after I logged off this morning! Cool, I love the discussion on this & I'm glad blur finally stopped by.

sacred, I don't know what might be going on here, but can you give a table this is happening on & what is affected, then I would be willing to test it desktop or FS. Blur is right though, there really isn't anything going on that should be messing with this. & if you grabbed my tweaked/updated version (updated with core 3.36), maybe the issue lies in that? Other than that there is no code changed or added that should be able to affect things like LED's. Are you talking about LED's on a table? Or LED's as in the score display on UVP or something?

when i fire my cab up again ill test it. I switched out the core 3.33 for the one listed here 3.36 and all of the sudden all my ledwiz toys stopped working on all tables. The moment i swapped back it all works so it could be missing the line to call on the ledcontrol.ini file. Im sure its something simple just havnt had time to search through and find the culprit

But aside from the nudge section, I didn't mess around with any other parts of code. I searched the original core for "ledcontrol" & nothing is there. So this is really strange. What is going on with the nudge code that could affect this? 1 thing not related to nudging directly that this script might have is "startshake". This was added so that all tables have it whether it is in the code or not. Does this have adverse effects in FS? If so I'll remove it, but try to remove it & see what happens.
I don't even know what ledwiz is, so I guess its something I can't test, must be cab related.

It isn't part of the standard core.vbs, it is an added feature, but only for those using an LEDWiz to control leds, solenoids, etc. in their cab... the only difference between a standard core.vbs and a modified one for LEDWiz use is what toxie said. It isn't included in the standard core.vbs file because it would cause an error if you don't have the ledcontrol.vbs or an LEDWiz hooked up.

It is included even in my custom core.vbs at the end, only it is commented out:

'ExecuteGlobal GetTextFile("ledcontrol.vbs")

unless i am mistaken as it has been a little while since i configured my cab there isnt a ledcontrol.vbs file. The file is ledcontrol.ini. I will make it a point to fire up my cab today and look.
