Same thing for me on T3, but I thought it was meant to be like that. It's named "right orbit" so maybe it should indeed go all the way round

just watched the video and it looks like some modes it goes right round, same as in VP .

and to collect RPG and Mystery it stops and drops in the hole, Vp doesn't do this but just rolls out, so can never collect

Makes Final battle hard not collecting RPG when lit.

Looking at HP there is a mod that is looking at being uploaded, hopefully here also.

Is version 2.0 available somewhere?
I'm already seeing billion point scores on the new tables.

New release PINemHi Leaderboard.... version 2.0 clnglasses.gif
Totally rewritten , it's best to use another directory to extract the new version to or remove the old version and place the new one in the same directory.



Now you can cycle through the games using wheel images.
You can switch mode by simply pressing a button
You can use it as a frontend for other games using a custom.xml
flyer / backglass image display support
local hiscore display support is in

A lot has changed so you better read the instructions before starting.

Also there are 9 new games from the most wanted list in:
Twilight Zone
Sorcerer
World Cup Soccer 94
Terminator 3
Elvis
Rollercoaster Tycoon
The Getaway High Speed II
Bram Stokers Dracula
Radical!


To show you how it looks with wheel images I took some of Grizz and R-DuB (had to resize them a bit) wheel images....(hope they don't mind, if someome does let me know and i'll remove the link)

You can download from here to sample the wheelimages:
Wheel images
Maybe there could be a wheelpack in the future for pinemhi leaderboard here on vpforums....

Hope you like the new style of pinemhi leaderboard.

@DedRok you should download this one, as there have been some changes to v2.0 since I gave it to you and did I mention the 9 new games that are in? whistle.gif

Argh, off to a great start. Had a brilliant first ball on WCS before I realized online submit mode wasn't default anymore.

Two more things I'd like to see: 1) The main screen needs something going on. It's very... blue right now. Maybe one of our graphics guys could help you with that. 2) Support for Tommy (the new Sally Simpson mod to be exact). Shouldn't be too hard to squeeze into the next version.

On 1: if you pressed the m to enable online submitting it wouldn't have been all blue... tongue3.gif lol
If you turn it on it will remember the setting so next time it will start with that mode being enabled...
So luckily you don't get that too often ( playing with online submit off )

If the resolution is 1600 or over (horizontally) then there are 2 images beside the wheel images...maybe not the prettiest ones but not all blue...

On 2: i believe that one was on the most wanted list so yes that's gonna be added soon....

Over 1600 horizontally? Yeah, that might explain why I don't see them, my lappy doesn't exactly have a huge screen. Besides, I believe I redeemed myself with 800 million on Elvis, and that one did submit correctly. God damn, Jailhouse Rock is some FUUUUN stuff. 70 mil on one of those alone.

Should be Terminator 3 FS
The other one should be the vp8

Maybe i did a little screwup with copy paste.
If you change it in the xml to the above it should work

Thanks for this new FE-Version DnaDisturber, it works great.
I have installed the latest Flash-Player, but i see only a blue window when i press "H".
Is it possible to change the Start-Key "Enter" to another Key like "1"?
At least i want to start PINemHI on the 2nd screen, it dosn't work with Ultramon.

Thank you, Dr.Ear

*edit: I fixed the problem with the Flash Player, i just installed it for FF (Plugin) and not for IE (ActiveX)

Can somebody upload T3 FS table (with name Terminator 3 FS) so everyone will have th same table ? I don't know where I got mine from, but it does not work anymore, the ball just falls from the up of the plunger ramp... I would swear I played the table alre, so I dont understand what's happening now.

Games.xml shouldn't be changed...the name of the tables get checked with the ones in the database..
So yes that's the problem...Just change them back and it will work , or redownload the games.xml

If you want other names/games in the frontend you should use the custom.xml and turn that on.

The instructions say to Submit by clicking the pinball under "Yes", but does that work? I'm on dial-up and my connection may have been lost, but when I clicked on "Yes" nothing happened and when I tried clicking again a couple of times, the program froze.

When I checked the Task Manager (CTRL-ALT-DEL keys) I saw several instances of PINemHi-Leaderboard.exe open. and the desktop did not reset the Taskbar after I used Task Manager to exit.

The program worked when I rebooted and played, then submitted my score by pressing ENTER/Return (Once!), but I'm wondering about the extra .exes opening on extra clicks on the GUI. I think the pinball vanished under the "Yes" after clicking, but was not present under either "Yes" or "No" when I clicked "Yes" several more times.

Yeah, there seem to be some ordering issues when clicking, the whole GUI gets messed up because everything is handled within different layers. Don't click when using this program, just use the buttons.

Like McD said , just use the buttons.
It is designed that way.....i guess the clicking in the instructions is a leftover from the old version. You should just press the enter button.

When you have no internet connection then the program waits as it can't send the score... If you then press again it will launch the same program to send the score and it too will wait....so the multiple exes can be explained.
This program assumes that the internet connection is always open i'm afraid. If in the online submit mode or 5 minute mode that is....

If you miss the taskbar because the program did not exit normally the easiest way to get it back is start the program again and then exit it using escape (can be done right after it started , you don't have to play a game).....the taskbar will then be visible again. You then don't have to reboot.

This is actually an autohotkey frontend, that's the reason for the layers....but if you only use the buttons as intended then you wouldn't get the nasty side-effects...
