Yep, that fixes it - but introduces an unbearable delay in the flippers' reaction to Shift-keypresses, like with many other tables... tapping.gif

Very glad that you persevered with your talents Glxb. The results are as entertaining a the real table for me. Great job with the models and DMD goodies. Appreciate the effort required to bring another recent Stern to our screens.

This may seem like a silly question being the high quality of the table but is the dot matrix display supposed to be black and white like mine is? Or is one of my settings not where it should be?

You have an ATI card right Dosmodious? I can't remember but I think you have to disable the GL shaders or something like that. Yeah, I just checked, it's GLSL shaders under "preferences - Video / rendering" options.

I have a NVidia GeForce 9500GS. I don't know about anything else about the card but your assistance is appreciated and I need more of it. smile.gif

That's the first I hear of the DMD color issue with an Nvidia card. Nevertheless, did you try out disabling the GLSL shaders? Just to be clear (I don't know your knowledge of FP), this is a Future Pinball option you need to disable, so go to "Preferences", then "Video / Rendering" options and you'll see it listed there.

Thanks for the hard work you put in on this table, guys!

I'm astounded by what you've accomplished here.
I am, therefore I run.

Hi, what a gorgeous table.

I'm wondering if forum members can share what settings they're using. I've experimented with the slope and flipper settings but I still can't aim the ball very well with my setup. My other FP tables work well however. Thanks.

Hello,
thanks for this really amazing table....and i've only one small question: how to use it in a 3 monitor cab?

Used the cab-nogameroom version, but display is directly in the Backglass then i tried to move display in the "standard"-nogameroom version to my desired position (on third monitor), but wasn't be displayed......and i think orientation would also be not correct.
a hint to get this solved would be nice.

thanks and best regards

I had that problem for a bit as well. Can't remember exactly what fixed it.
Are you using the latest FPLaunch.exe ?
I can't remember what it is called, but you have to uncheck some kind of playfield render on one of the menu screens of FP. It is not on the main screen that pops up at first.
I can check my settings when I get home later, but hopefully you will have it fixed by then.

Great. Hope that fixes it.
The thing you need to uncheck is "Load image into table editor". It is located under the "Preferences/editor options".
Also make your you have your "Model Quality" set to High.

Greetings and thanks for your great work.
I have some problem to play the table in HiRes (white plastics) and after several tests I found that in the library "HiRes/FgFgx.fpl", textures "plastics copy" and "table" are missing.
Of course the plastics are blank.
I tried to download the table of other sites but this same.
Can anyone verify this?
Thanks again

Edit: In Texture manager, this textures Sometimes they are and sometimes not, but plastics are ever white....

WHY????????

Hey SPARKY70,  no my BG looks clear I don't notice any Pixilation  or blurring.  I really wish they would update the models on this table like some of the newer tables.  They look a little like balloon animals but it's a minor issue, the table is well put together and a lot of fun to play.  "Hey, whose leg do you have to hump to get another quarter around here!"

I would think if you are setting FP to the same res as your BG monitor it should work fine. I tried setting my FP just now to 1280x720 then 640x480(Normally 1280x1024)  Aside from being off center it still looked as crisp.   I even played around with the monitor res. and it was still crisp just changed image size.   With it only happening on two tables IDK, I would say it has to be something odd with those tables.

 

Are you running BAM or a frontend? does it do the same if you run it with and without those?
