Good eye humeck

I turn the caps the correct way. I also turn the images to the 90 left. Used Gimp to turn the images.

The ball can get stuck between Gate1 and Wall6.

[wiesshund]

the cap must rotate 90 degrees clockwise,

 

 

 

 

I suggest to turn the bumper 90° clockwise and the image on the cap 90° counterclockwise.

 

Then the screws dont line up.

Have to pick one, or someone can blender bumper caps.

Seems to have eaten the alpha channel?

but the screw dimples on the caps are 90 degrees off

if that annoys anyone, they will have to blender some new caps?

These little dimples? I don't think anybody will notice. But people noticed the tilted caps. ;-)

It seems right to me, the locations for the screws are like in the real pinball machine.

Oh, you're right! The dimples SHOULD be on the top and bottom. So all is fine.

the 6 PM's i got this morning saying the dimples are now vertical in the test version says people notice them

 

so the bumpers either stay the orientation they are so i dont have to listen to PM's about how the dimples dont line up with the screw tubes, or someone can mod the table and make their own bumper caps in blender

Edited: Oh never mind. I looked closer the real bumpers cap screenshot. Those are for screws. lol

As you like. But please note, on the physical machine, those dimples are indeed vertical (pic1). They don't line up with the tubes, because the tubes are for the bumper mechanism (pic2). The caps screw into the plastic (pic3)

Your Google drive file seems to now be correct for orientation of the caps including correct placement of the screw dimples. Suggest updating the file at VPF if you get the time. Thanks Wiesshund.

1) NO i wont make the bumper tubes line of with the screws, i dont care if bob's table does it, mod it yourself, no need to PM me.

2) NO i cannot do something about the janky sounds, that is what the ROM sounds like, no need to PM me more, make your own altsound if you like

3) NO i wont give it a DMD, the machine never even had an active backglass, the apron display was it, yes i know Scutters could do it and he is more than welcome to if he feels like it.

4) Yes i know the b2s backglasses are low rez, I did not make any of them, nor can I redraw the art to make one, there is no need to PM me about them, draw some art, i am sure someone will make a backglass from it.

 

more PM's about the above are just going to get deleted

[Mitchell]

i like the table.

 

Guys come on. Most of the bumpers doesn't have some screws on the VP tables. Why complain now. Just add those on your own. Not that hard. Just copy and then paste. Set the hight after that. Give it a color. lol

Here is one that I found, and then I edited the bottom piece off. The reounded top already there. Whole piece is in the zip too. I redid the height on the one that I edited. People will not be enabled to see the screws. Be so tiny. What is the point of having it. This is for anyone want these screw files. lol

 

wiesshund thanks for the 1.1 update.

If the Extra Ball is lit and you shoot the right kicker, the game ends.

For me the extra ball makes the flippers go dead and the ball drains. I get the ball back on the same ball though.
