Ah, the taskbar!
Thanks.

I'm not sure what you mean with the 2nd screen and ultramon....

Ultramon is a tool to manage multiple monitors.

I have 3 screens and Pinemhi will only start on the mainscreen (playfield) rotated 90 degrees to the right.
So i have to rotate Pinemhi 90 degrees or start it on the 2nd screen (Backglass monitor.

Greetings Dr.Ear

Thanks for the compliment...

For now it's just the one image for the flyer, so you better pick the right one
Now working on the website..things are coming along nicely...
Looks much better , just what the 2.0 version deserves...
Not ready yet but very close...

About VP9 > Indianapolis 500 Special Scores > Pitstop Record.
Shouldn't that be based on the Shortest Time?
The Pitstop record *I think* is based on how quickly you launch the ball from the Plunger to the right inlane, hit the left Ramp from the right Flipper and Then hit the Turbo Eject Hole (the Kicker behind the left ramp), usually from the upper right side Flipper as the ball returns from the left Ramp to the right side Orbit.

I'm listed at No. 1 with 13 sec., but Drawde is listed at No. 2 with 6.9 sec.

Is that right?

Strange. I just posted a Pitstop Record of 6.5 and it posted at No.1.

Drawde scored the 6.9 before i discovered a sorting problem with people having a time above 10 seconds...i fixed it by sending a 0 in front of times under 10 seconds..
That 0 wasn't added in Drawde's score....so i have to add that manually in the database to get that corrected.

As you've seen yourself it works like it should.....i'll put Drawde back on the place that he deserves.....
Congrats on the number one spot by the way

Thanks for reporting this....

I agree with DedRok, this 2.0 version ROCKS ! I found out why I often had "no game played" : the last access time wasn't updated on my WinXP, just like it is in Win7 (because of tweaks applied to make Windows run faster, it's not the case in original XP). Maybe adding a check on the registry value could be useful, especially when PinemHi will be largely distributed

I checked the "most wanted" list, & I noticed you swapped BBB. What's happening with this table/rom ?

About the website, if there's anything we can help you with, don't hesitate to ask.

Glad you figured out the reason why it wasn't working for you.

BBB is a tough cookie, tried to figure it out but i don't think i can get every score...i will only get it to work when you beat the highest score that's in the rom....tried to set the highest score to 0 in the rom (with the menu)but somehow that isn't saved....
Maybe that's the problem that it won't save the last scores as well....maybe preliminary pinmame support?
So not sure when that one gets in...

Website is coming along nicely so no help needed there.....
Maybe someone could try to get the wheel-images pack uploaded to the download section? (with approval of course and credits to the people who made them in the description)

Hi,

it's a link for terminator 3 fs with fix !!

Here we are again: http://www.2shared.c...rminator_3.html


If the VUK doesn't work for you, plug in a keyboard before starting the game, and that should fix

[sleepy]

Are we fixing the games for PINemHi_Leaderboard?

I've been having a Devil of a time with Bram Stoker's Dracula and The Party Zone.

On Drac the ball wants to fly off the left Ramp into The Outer Wall where it sticks there staring down at me...

Ditto for the left Ramp on Party Zone, though I play both tables without any changes to them.

I never had issues you mentionned on these tables sleepy. But you're right, we have to play with unchanged tables / downloaded version (except minor changes I guess as I've put some UVP lines in some of mines).

That's why we would need a staff member (if any comes here sometimes ?? ) to upload a working Terminator 3 FS table, like the one Ced gives above, so everybody will play the same one.

[DnaDisturber]

As xio said , there shouldn't be played with altered tables (just use them as they are).
If there is a better version then we can switch to that table and retire the hiscores on the table that has been replaced.

The Terminator 3 FS is the one with the RPG fix (as stated in the wanted list) but it couldn't be downloaded anymore.....
Hopefully it will soon be in the download section here on vpforums
If the name should change then I'll change it to the new name in the games.xml (now it's just known by the name Terminator 3 FS)


On another note :

I totally revamped the website www.pinemhi.com/hiscores.php
There are 4 sections for the hiscores ( VP9 , FS , VP8 and Retired)
Should look a lot better now

Also you can create your username and get your code on the website directly (click on the Join image).
You get the code instantly by the way

Thanks go to -edit- dbeedle for the idea to do it like this.....

@xio You can now see which tables haven't been played by a player (under player info)


So if you want to join , just download the program (from this thread) and get your username and code on the website

The new update for the website is very nice dnadisturber , thanks for this !!

[TheMcD]

So, who is the T3 FS table by? I assume the "fix" came from a mod, so did whoever made the mod get permission? If you guys can give me the info and confirm everything checks out, I can just upload it.

Noticed the update last night! Lookin' good!

[TheMcD]

Alright, I've staked my claim at the top of the X-Files and Elvis rankings. If anybody feels the need to challenge me, they can try and knock those scores off.

I think u can, here's what a member posted in the following thread : http://www.vpforums....topic=17377&hl=

Here is a more updated link for that table and it contains the VUK fix done by Boogies2

If one of the mods here sees this and would like to add it to VPForums.org please do so. Boogies2 was talking about doing that, but, has been busy I imagine. Here is the link to the hyperspin forum thread where he speaks of that. Feel free to PM or post if you have any questions.

http://www.hyperspin...9006#post179006

And here is the link to d/l T3 Fullscreen with VUK fix by Boogies2 (which was Groni approved btw)

http://www.2shared.c...rminator_3.html

Above link is also available in the Hyperspin thread.

[TheMcD]

I'm still not sure. Can somebody either contact Groni himself and the guy who did the FS conversion and ask them for explicit permission to upload to VPForums.org or contact Noah and ask him what he thinks of this situation?

I've seen the new design also & it looks really much better, thx DNA ! The only thing is that these yellow cups have a "ced" or a "dedrok" written just below... I got to work on this

@xio You can now see which tables haven't been played by a player (under player info)

Yes I noticed it, made me play the 10 tables I had left ! Now I got scores on all tables (is there a medal for this great achievement ? )

Good to see that things are coming along, and I hope we'll have more & more people playing. That should be the case as it's now really easy to sign up
