OK, here's what I did for desktop play:





The problems I notice: there are some white boxes on the apron, the top flipper on the upper playfield can't be seen (but works), and the red lights are a bit squashed. To me it's completely playable, but knowing how much a perfectionist Groni is, I understand why he chose not to do a desktop version. Edit: after seeing bolts post below, I downloaded 1.02 and he's correct, the flipper can be seen now. Thanks bolt!

And here's the (crappy looking) backdrop I threw together, though it will only work for my WS settings, not 4:3:

Thanx man. Okay, i will try to track that one down. I don't have that BG....mine is blank at the top.

I updated that backglass to a more standard style. I didn't care for the white space and seeing half of the upper playfield. You can use this with the UVP.exe file if you want. Everything will line up with the scores. I hope the hardcore traditionalists don't hate this too much!

John, Thanx very much man! That is exactly what i needed!!!

How did you turn off the DMD on this? I tried a couple things (.Hidden=1 etc...) but it didn't work for me. I have it small in the corner for now.
Excellente!

I added:

Controller.Hidden = True

after the line:

Controller.LockDisplay = False

Yep, that is how to do it Blackmoor. I thought the 0/1 and true/false were inner changeable but maybe not. Anyhow, I did mine precisely how Blackmoor defined it and it works fine.

^^ Thanx men! Worked like a charm!! Cheers!

Thanks for the famouse table. Great work.
I have a lot of fun with this table.

For 3 weeks I played the orginal table
in Germany / Neu Ulm.

[luvthatapex]

I'm playing with a dual core and have no stutter at all.
What is your video card, memory, services running, etc?
Are there other tables you have stutter. Are you using UVP, do you have the textures set to unlimeted, etc. Need more info.
If Groni doesn't approve of hashing this out in his thread, please open a new one in vp help and we will try to help!

Thanks for the update Groni.

A funny thing happens to me with this table. I can change the values to play for the desktop, and it looks pretty good, but when I go to save the game my next game has no upper playfield lights. I have a windows 7 64 bit system (the game does not stutter) so I don't think it's an inferior computer. I don't know if it's a resolution problem or what, but I'd hate to mess with my whole system for one game.

To eliminate the white boxes just use the option kickerInvisible for kickers "drain, drain1, drain2".
Thanks GRONI Fantastic Work.

[bolt]

Thank you kiwi for the tip with the kickerInvisible for kickers.
Works fine.

[Shooby Doo]

Yes, thanks for that Kiwi.

[JAM0]

Thanks Shooby Doo and Kiwi (and of course Groni) -- the WS settings work great!

Here's a great explanation of the rules http://www.pinball.o.../banzairun.html Reading this allowed me to up my scores considerably on this great table. I challenged King of the Hill a few times, got multi-ball and replays but have yet to defeat him. The problem was I didn't have enough time

I ended up being late to the party with this one.
However it worked perfectly right out of the box. No troubles.
Great table, that I have never played before.

[rcadefrk]

Thanks Kiwi, Shooby, & Groni. I'm not very good at this table though...got to get some practice in & get better. If it were a real machine, i would be hurting

[settingsons]

Thank you so much groni - this is a masterpiece and so addictive! The flippers, weighty ball and physics are absolutely spot on. Perfection

[bladexdsl]

just tried to play this on my cab the ball stutter was off the scale!

[settingsons]

Would be very cool, if someone could make a Video of it, how it runs in a cab

Hi Groni - I made a video - it's not great quality but will give you an idea of how it looks. In the flesh the quality is awesome - High Def and fluid ball movement - with UVP too!
