Thanks for your reply. I should of noted that before we atempted to get nudging right I had to have a dead zone of about 5%. This forced me to set my gains super high to register a nudge, but I had no ball stutter. I did this as a temporary solution casue I got tired of pissing with the thing while other more important things still needed to be complete on my cabinet.
I too have the problems with nudges registering the incorrect direction which is why Im attempting to fix it manually. I think this has to do with the wrong values being read in windows calibration for the device and having a dead zone set in VP. It is my understanding that if you have everything thing correctly configured, you do not need a dead zone. Thats what I am trying to achieve.
I am actively working on my nudge again with my PBW board. Let me know how you progress. I have tried many different things and am at a point where i'm looking into a alternative method for nudge.
The reason i'm lookin elsewhere is because what i have noticed on actual tables is that the ball would wander at times with no nudge at all...maybe because of the subwoofer, maybe because of w/e. It's really frustrating when the ball moves randomly on a table when you did nothing.
What i'm looking into is slam tilt switches. Three of them, one on each side by the flippers and one in front under the lockdown bar. These switches are basic leaf switches like the flipper switches with a weight on one copper lead. With a slight smack on the side of the lockdown bar, or by the flipper...the weight would swing the copper lead over to the other copper lead and make contact. Because the copper leads are stiff enough, there shouldn't be any rebound causing double contact like a tilt bob solution. Each of these contacts would be connected to an empty wire on the PBW board(plenty of them there) and you would go into VP Pref>Keys and map those wires to the digital nudge keys in VP.
Yes it's a digital nudge, but at this point I'm not having success at the PBW analog nudge.
