There is an issue where the switch for the left ramp drop-off only works for certain people because of a timing issue. However, Destruk has sent me instructions for fixing the problem. Once I get it resolved and release on final update to the 4:3 version, I'll find someone who's willing to convert it to FS : )

OK guys, I've updated Independence Day to version 1.2. It features the following changes:

*Disabled frame from appearing around PinMame window at start-up
*Enhanced spinners' performance/ animations
*Eliminated ball bounce-back at the end of center ramp
*Improved script
*Increased ramp drop-off hole size to reduce low frame-rates (especially noticeable during multi-ball)

Hope you enjoy!

I sized this release for FS and did a quick UVP without the main SHIP.

Nealtron, if you can rotate your reels and resize them, you could easily do a FS version. I could send you what I have done so far or here are the figures.

I'll have ID4 full screen released by the end of the week.
I just have a little bit of photoshop work to do and adjustments to make in the playfield & script.

The full-screen version is nearly complete!
There was a lot more to do than you may have expected. Here's the progress shot:



I've been back to working full-time lately, so I apologize for lagging on this. I hope to have this completed on Monday, but no promises.
I just need to re-do the rear red flasher, fix the VUK appearance, change the script and figure out what to do about the backwall image.
