Here is my latest version, dubbed beta2, updated bumper cap and plastic transparent edge images and a few graphic cleanups courtesy of hauntfreaks.  haunt also made me a sweet little leaf switch primitive that I use to fill the hole behind the rubbers where a leaf scoring switch would be  :otvclap:   stole zany's mini-gottlieb primitives for the upper flippers, haunt again modified the texture image to match for this table.  Ball speed adjusted some per your suggestions.  I've done quite a few lighting changes updates etc as well as finished all the scoring logic so I believe it now all works as it should.  Added a few lighting effects to better match how things go in the video posted earlier.  The options menu now works, press [ to change balls per game and replay options.  Changing the cards on the apron is still on the to do list though, but the game will play how you set the options. 

 

I have one weird-ity that maybe some of you can help with.  I have occasionally have the ball spin (I assume) cause the ball to roll uphill beyond what I think it should.  It mostly happens near the upper left flipper but have seen elsewhere.  I know I've read in some thread about someone else having that issue and resolving it, but I can't for the life of me find the post.  Anybody know where that is, or what the resolution is?

 

FS settings are set up for my cabinet which has the playfield in portrait mode, you will need to adjust accordingly.

 

Download also includes a wheel image I made from a photo of an actual backglass (same image used in the desktop background below) and I decided to leave the defects.

Did a few fixes to bugs I found over the weekend, and set upper kicker to non-legacy so it behaves better.  new link.

Stat these are the setting I use....

Where do you find these fields, guys? I can't find these when I press "options." Am I looking in the wrong place? Can't get this tableto rotate for cab usage, and I'm assuming I've gotta plug in these numbers somewhere...

Thanks, Outhere! Super fast response from you! :)

 

And thank you, Hauntfreaks, for the table rotation settings. Worked like a charm. I'm loving EMs on VP10. Simply amazing! :P

I love this table. Superb layout, beautiful looks, and awesome gameplay. One question: Does anyone else feel like the ball veers slightly to the left? I've had this happen on just a few tables in VP9. Forget how I fixed that. Haven't had this happen yet on VP10. It could also be my imagination...

Do you happen to have a nudge device in your cab Ben? That's the only time I've had that kind of issue, and the settings for VP10 are much different then for VP9.  or it could be your imagination :)

No nudge device. But I do have an external button controller that I built, that has tricked a few tables into thinking I have a nudge device connected. There's definitely some ball drift happening, but I think it's my rig causing it, not your beautiful table Borgdog. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. :)

 

I think I figured it out: I set the Dead Zone to 15. I seem to remember having had to do this for VP9 as well with my controller. Fixed the problem right up. Or... I may be talking nonsense and Dead Zone has nothing to do the perceived ball drift. But, in any case, it appears to be totally gone.

 

Space Walk looks and plays amazing!

 

:D

Thanks, glad you like it, it is one of the ones I keep going back to. Glad you got your drift issue resolved, and looks like the issue on MM an well, I still need to download that one.

Enjoying playing this table. Thanks BorgDog.

 

I do have one question. Does this table have DOF? Just want to determine if its not in the table yet, or that I might have a DOF issue with my cab. If its not in the table yet, are there plans to add it?

Whats the trigger to reset the drop targets?  If I shoot them all down and hit the kicker (a bunch of times), they never reset.  Are the supposed to or is it only after ball drain?

Only after a ball drain on the em version. The ss count down will reset after you clear them all I believe.
