Thanks JP!

Thanks, JP

Also, here's a couple clips from pinball 101 that should be useful to see it more clearly and also with some slow-motion


and especially big thanks JP for improving what was already my favourite VP table.
amazing.

(and for those intrigued by that video and gameplay, pinball 101 has some cool technical tips and great footage – my unaffiliated and unsolicited plug for it)

This site sounds really helpful, thanks for posting.

theres a bug
it happens in total annihalaton multiball, if u complete alien attack
it sends one ball extra (5th ball).. so when u stay with two balls , one ball falls and u lose.
then it give u two ball every time

[jpsalas]

I start to wonder if it is a bug in the rom, since I can't find anything wrong with the script or the table.
If you have this multiball error then try using another rom. In the line 45 you'll see this line:

Const cGameName = "afm_113b"

Try changing the afm_113b with any of the other roms: afm_10, afm_11 or afm_113. I don't know if there are more roms, but those are the ones I have tried

[hatuka]

ok thank u
i try to do this i will notice u if it solve the problem.

ok thank u
i try to do this i will notice u if it solve the problem.

tried
still happens in total annihilation, cant tell exactly what causes this, it happend after u complete a city while in total annihilation. not the aliens attack as i said before.
i tried rom 1.13
now i will try the 1.1

[R-DuB]

I don't think it would be a ROM problem.
I Just played this a few minutes ago using afm_113b rom and have no issues or get any errors in total annihilation.

[hatuka]

it doesnt happens a lot..
u can play like 40 games without having this problem.
i try to figure out what trigger it and cant be 100% sure. just as i said it happens while in total annihilation and a thing u do there.

[R-DuB]

Yea, not sure why that would happen, I have played this table many times before and never had this come up.
Have you tried re-downloading the table and roms?

This has fast become one of my favorites, never had the chance to play it in the "flesh" though, shame ;p
It has everything I like, humor, ramps, and great artwork/action.

I did find a weird glitch however,I had the martian attack going and during that,got the 3 lock multiball.Then with both the multiball and the martian attack going, I then got the martian multiball, and I lost track of how many balls were then launched, I'd guess all of them.While really fun, it seemed to confuse the table, and after all but one of the balls drained, the flippers stopped working, then the last ball drained and then I launched the last ball of the game, only to have the table proceed to fire off 2-3 more balls.These drained like before, and I started a new game, the first ball kicked out, then 2 more before I could even launch the first.

Otherwise, beyond awesome ;p

If the ball count ever gets confused like that again, you can press B and select to remove a ball from the trough, which should correct it again.

I've been a fan of this table for a long time and I have played older versions of your Attack from Mars with no problem.  However, with this 2.3.1 version, I am experiencing the same symptoms as this post.  I'll try to find an old zip for the time being.

Been playing this today and noticed the service dot. On entering settings it says drop target sw77 is stuck closed.

 

EDIT : nevermind, just deleted nvram file and its fine now.

I'm working on a fix for this problem, and this weekend I'll post a test table to see if the problem is fixed.

That's great news JP.

I'm taking a 2 days break from Scarface to fix this AFM problem/bug. I think I have found the problem, but I'm not sure. I'll test the table a little more and tomorrow I'll release the 2.4 version, which will need VP914+ and it will need HR on.

 

If your card can't handle HR then just go and get one! You don't know what you are missng!. The newest Ati are quite cheap and they work quite well. I have testet the table with a 512Mb Ati Radeon HD 5450 and it works very well.

 

Here it is a screenshot with all the flashers on, just to get your mouth wet
