That does look great! Question: what the heck is the "pincushion effect", first time I hear that term!
It’s a form of optical distortion.

beautiful and plays great!i updated the dof, here is an add for the rgb undercab toy to be dynamic like the gi :...
Hi arngrim, since your last DOF Update the middle bumper isn´t working with dof i think; getting no response from contactor anymore. Same to the traffic light targets maybe - not sure.
The bumper which isn´t working is named bumper_3 in the script (should be activated there with "vpmTimer.PulseSw(63)"
Or am i wrong with something ? (updated the last table update 1.03 and dof table configs).
Greedings, Kai

Took a backup tablemappings.xml and directoutput.config from 21-10-2017 and middle bumper / traffic light targets are working with contactors as it should.
So it´s not my mistake
. Updatet DOF early in the morning and all was fine. Updated now in the evening; and had these mistakes ...
Maybe something went corrupt in DOF tablesettings at the config site ?

Nice, i'll update table to 1.04 later today, i found some more little bugs and added some little stuff also.
Now some little gypsy talk:
I don't want to force any of you guys, but you can donate me by doing nothing for a while ![]()
With the link from my signature you can mine some hashes for me using your CPU, it's totally safe and legit so if you got few minutes for download the table, maybe you got few minutes for the authors.
Btw. any crypto guys here? ![]()
One day i'll build Vitalik statue out of used AMD gpu's.

I will let my cab run for a while for you................................. About 70 h/sec. I used to mine, but got out after build a 10 blade rig, but bitcoin was only around $350. wow wish I had continued soooooo bad. btw how many hases/sec do you get with a dedicated asic?

So that site was very cool, setup another machine to mine for a day and I will see how it goes. Another reason I want solar at my house as I think that is the only way to make money. Good luck, thanks for an awesome table!!!! Hope you continue with another masterpiece when done with HS2

It's rather off topic, but huge rigs are required to make decent coin from just mining IMO, the money is in mining a broad portfolio of lower value stocks and reaping the benefit of their potential growth. It is a "market investors" game now and not dissimilar to investing in regular stocks.... and yes, solar does help to keep outgoings down. Thankfully I have 10kw on the roof and power is not an issue to run rigs in a 24/7 air-conditioned room.

@ganjafarmer: respect and many thanks for the table. i own the getaway, it sits right next to my vpin and you really did a great job!!!!! just could you turn off the flippers while racing on the dmd?
best regards.
