Love the game! It looks/sounds/plays terrific. --Though hitting F6 causes it to freeze and I have to force quit VPX altogether. Any thoughts? I tried deleting the nvram, just to see if it would help, but nothing doing. I don't remember having this issue with the previous version... Thanks in advance for any advice!

 

I don't know what can be wrong. I have just installed Windows 11, and I have installed all the VC++ runtimes from this link: Visual C++ Redistributable Runtimes All-in-One (Jul 2022) Download | TechPowerUp and everything works well, as you can see by the screenshot

 

Thanks for your response, JP! I'll keep fiddling with it. Out of curiosity, is there something in the script that can make the table default to 3 ball-mode?

To change the number of balls: run the table, press F6 and check for 3 balls. Quit VPX, run it again, and it will be 3 balls game.

 

(I know you can press F3 to start vpinmame again, but I prefer to quit VPX to completely stop vpinmame, since many tables don't like that F3 :) )

Fantastic, well made table.  Dropping all 6 targets twice doesn't lite extra ball lane as instructions suggest.  The only option I have in F6 menu is "replay or free ball award"  which is set to none.  If I put that to extra ball, Shoot again lights immediately after hitting any upper bumper or lane.   I grabbed this after the most recent v4 update.  Wondering if I'm missing something.  Thank you!

A couple mentioned the flippers dying or in my case sticking up after pressing the flipper button.  I have to press the flipper buttons once or twice to make the flipper drop back down. It seems to be random.    Anyone know how to fix this.   This table is incredibly good and I need my flipper working.

@kellyf are you using 10.8.1? I've heard of others having a similar bug in the latest beta. Otherwise check if you are on the latest stable versions for VPX8 and B2S, and the latest Vpinmame Beta (3.7)

I have the same issue as @kellyf

Great art, fun game but can't rely on the flippers. Shame

Thanks for the reply

 

I'm on 10.8. I worked out the issue was running B2S as .exe. This is my default setting on vpinstudio. When I deselected and restarted the table it's fine.

It's a fun table jpsalas!

It is also a good idea to update the B2S server:

Another backdrop for another beautiful table !

Unfortunately, you'll have to re-locate the aReels (scores, ball in play...)

 

I found this little trick to easily move them, I create a "TEXTBOX", and then I select it with the aReels.

 

I can lock or unlock them, move them where I want. 

 

Here is a screenshot
