He will have enabled the "Force exclusive Fullscreen Mode" option and the VPM display is not visible,

instead the display made with lights should be visible.

The gate in the plunger lane is open both ways, is it like that in the real machine? Does the ball really get back to the plunger sometimes? Seems to me the gate should be open upwards only, no? Thx!

I can almost guarantee that it should be a oneway gate
I say almost because i dont have the real machine, but it would be the most ridiculous design if it was not, the ball would continually roll back to the shooter
Exit door only LOL

Real machines don’t have gates on them. The kickers shoot the ball into the ball lane. If you look at 80% of the tables people check to make them visible. They should NEVER be visible

I set the intensity to 30 and moved the position.
It is displayed, but the characters are broken and it is not displayed correctly like the VPM window.

On Policeforce it should be a gate, and it should be visible, or one will wonder what the hell the ball just rolled into


If you feel the need to empty your wallet in my direction, i don't have any way to receive it anyways

I think ArmyAviation was talking about invisible gates from the trough up to the plunger, that are often used in VPX where simulating the exact geometry of the pf there just isn't worth it. The gate at the end of the shooter lane on Police Force is a one-way flat wire with a big-ass bracket, and helps channel the ball into the saucer right next to it when a ball comes from the left or above.
