Mega thanks for the recent update activity JP

I'm stuck in Kuwait at the moment and the thought of playing these updated beauties when I get home is the only thing preserving my sanity

Ok, about ball sizes: THERE IS NOTHING CALLED UW SIZED BALLS. I just had to shout a little. All the balls are reduced to the same size in VP, that's 50 units, and it doesn't matter the image you use. I know that VP91x has a new command to use in the "kicker.createball", but since the balls are created by the core.vbs then there is no way I can change the ball in my vpinmame tables, at least not without writing my own subs instead the core.vbs, but who want to do that? So I repeat again: the ball size is calculate by VP itself depending of the size and height of the table. If you make a table with a width of 982 and another table with a width of 1024 then the ball in the 982 table will look bigger. If you put higher ramps then the ball will look smaller. Even changing the view angle will have an effect on the look of the ball. So can we now move on ?

JP I like your balls man dont change them

First off I am usually not one to talk about someone elses balls, but the ones in JP's table always seem to move the smoothest and look good to me!

But now to a more important question. Its looks like you should be able us a Leds timer to replace the DMD on this table but if I hide the DMD I get nothing. Am I wrong here? Its not a big deal but I think it would look a little better.

Do you have the latest UVP? If you do the display will appear in the horizontal area at the bottom of the backglass. HTH.

it was the one in the media pack maybe its outdated

[mandelbloom]

Hmm nope still dont see it. I added the sub_ledstimer and created the leds timer and enabled it? Identical to my Funhouse table.

[mandelbloom]

OK I got it...I think I had a bad backglass image.

Update 1.2
- fixed l1 lights and solenoid sounds (thanks kiwi)
- a few new graphics (playfield, transparent ramps ++)
- new script, ball collision, and plunger

I want to thanks thewool for sending a new playfield for the table, but I ended up fixing my old playfield because when I resized the playfield and made it darker it wasn't too different than the old one. But what I did is to use the image of Elvira and fixed some lights. So, thewool, you work wasn't for nothing

These updates of my older VP9 tables are mostly to add higher resolution playfield images, and changing them from JPG to PNG to remove artifacts added by the JPG compression.
I also add my plunger made with alpha ramps, with the script ready for the motion plunger. And I also add the collision sub with the changes by destruk for the vpm tables, which makes it quite easy to add those collision sounds to vpm tables without changing the state of kickers.

I would start testing your hard drive - run check disk on it because I had a similar problem on a data drive this past week and it turned out that the hard drive was failing. I was not surprised after I checked the label and discovered it was manufactured June 2006 so I got a lot of mileage out of it.

Best Regards,
Todd.
