558 adds the promised option to disable the (new) lighting calculations for the VP light objects with the 'On Image' enabled..

So it now reacts the same as if you only set a color for lights..

Is there anywhere to download it? Koadic's page only goes up to 548.

This is more of a feature request than a bug report, but seems like as good a place as any.  I've now dabbled with a couple tables that use a wall as the PF, for various reasons.  A game like HH there is no avoiding it.  When using a ramp or wall as a PF, the ball starts behave strangely.  It will wobble or appear to hit a spot where it kind of dies for no reason.  Throws off flipper physics a bit as well.

Would there be a way to set PF properties to a wall (or ramp)?  I don't know what these properties are, exactly, but maybe you guys can see something in the source code.

VP 9.15 is the officially released latest build for general use, the rest are for testing.

[chepas]

I know this isn't probably vp9.16 related but can anyone shed any light on why the VP editor for 9.15 would be using 600mb of memory. Seems high but tbh I've never taken alot of notice of that before.

 

Just as I type this, i removed the PF display in editor and 1 plastic display in editor , restart and shaved 200mb off the memory. Is there other things to be aware of that bumps the usage up?

[toxie]

if you enable the rendering of images in the editor, then obviously these need to be stored somewhere..

 

But as you say, please keep this thread to 9.1.6 specific stuff if possible..

Testing south park v2, Found graphics corruption. Phil believes its due to a bug when using more than 10 primitives. Also saud there is graphics corruptu on when using primitives with 4 sides. Can this be checked. I can privide a test table for you toxie

[toxie]

i'll be away til monday, but if you could pm me a repro table in the meantime, that would be nice..

[koadic]

sorry for being away, 559 is uploaded to the dropbox... just use the folder link

[TheMcD]

Just dropping in to report that since about 912, I've been experiencing a steady increase in performance with just about every new build I try (every new official version and about every 100th build). With 559 I've been able to control my balls during multiball on JP's TOM, even when all the lights are going off, something which usually causes a lot of stutter for me.

 

Keep up the good work, guys.

I just tested Big Bang Bar

I read somewhere that the 4GB patch on the .exe, as suggested by many, wasn't needed anymore on the new version, is this true?

Superb job on 559 by the way, lika autobahn for vp-tables.

I must be blind, what is wrong with the flippers?

[LoadedWeapon]

They look like red and white blobs.. when I get home I can post before and after shots.. or pre 559 I should say. I noticed it on some other tables aswell..

[kiwi]

Perhaps the problem is said to have LoadedWeaphon, it's like this.

 

I also saw in another table that there are colored boxes instead of Flippers, Gate, Ramps.

The new Modern Plunger is completely white, instead of having a white tip and gray rod.

 

Thanks
