any way to remove the ball jumping? Seems to jump around for some reason. Also, can the dmd be moved to  my dmd monitor? Very cool table nonetheless.

 

I have never seen the ball jump in this table, so I don't know what can cause that in yout setup.

And the DMD can't be moved. When VP will support 2 screens, then you'll be able to move it.


JP you talked about "Serious Sam" ... wow ... a Multiball with 100 Balls ? ;)

 

Hahaha, that should be something to see :)

Ghost. The only person who can't see how transparent you are is you. Get in front of a mirror, squint hard, and try to see a man who doesn't need attention to substantiate himself.

 

I hope J.P. Follows the threads enough not to fall for the bait.

 

If you are smart enough to strip the rom functions from J.P.'s tables so you can re-release them, I'm sure you can figure out how to get slimed.

Are you sure you are running the latest VPX beta? I can't think of another reason it would just crash like that.

Humid - Please, shut up. I am being serious. jerk. (all i wanted to do was play the game) I have talked to JP before and he is not a mean jerk like yourself. So take your own advice and get in front of a mirror

Yes SliderPoint. Running 10.2 BETA. Does this game need a rom or PinMame installed ? It seriously crashes.  Im not listening to Humid and his insults. The game does not load in the program. So I cant even fix anything in the scripts. It is not running. crashes when it gets to the 3rd Loading light. I have about 8 VPX 10.2 tables. All the other ones work fine. Maybe it is the models. I am on an i5 with Nvidia GTX, so it should not have any issue. I even right clicked on VPX 10.2 and ran it as admin. Still crashed.

 

Guess I will try re downloading it. I will let  you know. Maybe I got a bad batch.

As I wrote in the release info:

 

You need the latest VPX 10.2 to run this table, at least rev. 2847 due to the new rollover objects.

 

So download the latest beta and you are good to go :)

Works perfect. Thanks for the help. I didn't know there was a new Rev. version. Loaded in 5 seconds. Excellent game. Now I 

will be playing this for a few hours. Incase this happens to someone else Maybe BOLD and underline it needs new REV. also took me a while to find

the new REV on page 1. a link would help for the computer challenged.  thanks again jp. very cool game.

Well Ghost, I saw the tirade of comments that got you banned from GoPinball. I'm just a baby jerk compared to your world class status.

You don't know how to back down, show respect, or read instructions thoroughly. 

 

Many authors have enjoyed talks with J.P. over the years, myself included. It's because he is such a kind, generous gentleman that I called you out for your childish CRASH graphics.

Even after he helped you, you still needed to give him some suggestions, despite the fact that everyone else figured it out. So helpful.

 

You have managed to behave fairly well at this forum, so far. But, as you have demonstrated elsewhere, once you get comfortable you lose your composure.

Your reputation earned my baby insults.  A simple shot across your bow to serve warning. Ah, the irony of Ghostbusting.

Yes, I have taken note of that error. It happens on some other places too, as others have written about it too. I used the command "\ 10" in several places and I realize now that it tries to convert the result to integer, and the scores are too high on this game. I'll fix that. You are all too good at playing pinball :D I never got that error, and I thought I had some very great highscores, hahaha.

If you tilt while slimmer is active, he doesn't go away on drain.

1.0.1 Updated 1.12.2016

  • -Fixed division error with too high score numbers
  • -Added resetting of ball modes to the tilted ball (for ex. Slimer moves down now)
  • -Added stronger wire sounds to the ramps

I guess those were the only errors found for now :)

Has anybody else had an issue with the flippers not working?

If I don't plunge the ball within about 15 secs, when I do the flippers don't work.

Not a massive issue but I thought I'd mention it.


You can't take it with you so you might as well waste it on pinball!

Here is the Script for use with my (and from senseless) animated Backglass from here:
http://www.vpforums....=36453&p=364137
 
It is for 1.0.1 Version - not for another Version,
just replace the Script Text with this one.

Thanks for the Table Update JP :tup:
