But what - CC or CCC ;) ... we could start both, if the winner grab this Table ... maybe i get some time to Play for some days to easter ( and make a directb2s done )

I don't have CCC running. Is it with PROC? I don't have installed it till now.

After yesterdays mishap I could not leave the game completely untouched. Don't believe I touch it more this week - so, you should be safe from me now Bob :-)

 

And, I haven't installed CCC yet myself.

From now on. I won't help anyone here at VPF. Please ask Noah why that is.

I have not installed proc either. I'm always very hesitant on installing anything new. I know just enough about computers to be dangerous. And I don't want to mess up my working machine
By the way,I think the key to my awesome score lies in going to the cellar frequently and getting the multiplier up by shooting the
Left ramp. Can't shoot too hard or it goes all the way around

Well, I agree with you Bob on the strategy, but, if you somehow manage to shoot softer on the left ramp I can't think of any other way than that you have changed the flipper settings !

 

Default, they are way to strong and will go around almost 100% of the time. My tweaked table, sure. There I can do 8x almost every ball and start to get 5m as added bonus.

 

My problem has been that I seem to struggle on the right ramp to much, so I ended up with giving priority to the clock instead of illusions of the plunger. That at least gave me quite consistent 3 balls + at least one extra ball. If lucky maybe a second from Magic hole.  But, getting those x bonuses I was trying for, where impossible for me. I kept trying to stack MB with the final, but, I wasn't able to reach it - I made stupid mistakes every time.

 

As I said before TOM is one of my absolute favourite tables. Was trying to buy the real thing, but when the guy wouldn't bulge I decided to go virtual and now I'm glad I did :-)

I installed proc by following the guide on the Italian site. No problems.

Just the thought of installing Python on my cab - when you're a Perl guy. Nah - don't need that table ;-)

With nudge not working yet with Windows 10 and the VirtuaPin V3 plunger I don't think I can do any better than this.

 

Even if I could nudge I'm finding it hard to see where the big points are coming from.  All my left orbit shots go around instead of dropping into the jets to help build multipliers.  I'm also finding the right orbit shot to advance the clock very difficult.  Without nudge the risk of drain is just far too high.  I can't remember if I got a free Midnight out of the basement in that game or not.  I do know it was only a 3 ball game.  My best MAGIC multi-ball was somewhere in the range of 250M, hitting the quick 100M and then trapping up and relighting for 3 more jacks.

@reaper802.. I think you did great. Midnight magic is doable from basement, and those shots where one of the main scoring points for me. I didn't count but, I believe did at least 10 hit during the mode. Remember it started at around 28m - went down to 10 or so after some shots. About nudging. I don't think we ever will have a solution that is as good as real life. But, like you say - if you don't have it working at all, it doesn't play in your favour.

Thanks guys, you gave me the right tipps. :-)

Today I only go for the left and the right lanes and only for the other scores, if the shoot is relative safe.

And it's right: Maybe all balls to the left makes a complete round. But sometimes with a little luck, they are not hard enough and roll back and it's possible to get the x bonus.

Above 2b with the first ball, I get also two extraballs, midnight madness and all the other scores and the grand finale..
