I don't mind about the Future Pinball, cause I don't play that either...I see that as nice to have.

 

But the Pinemhi frontend needs more tables....I wish I could help...cause I have all the time of the world......

[Baron Shadow]

Well i'm busy downloading all the tables and and will then finally have a go at it.
Today i got the internet connection working with a devolo plug so fiinally my cab is online
Have played AFM but noticed it was the old version well at least it's working now.
Would ne nice to have a file with all the tables that are in play on the website with the download link behind iit.
Wouldn't be that much work to keep it up to date and easier to het into this.
I think that's maybe a reason that there are less people playingbit but maupybe itbwill also help now it's integrated at pinballx.
But it's a great way to compete online and i beleave that if would be a little easier to get the right tables (maybe a couple of install downloads with tables included, can be only a couple, will get people better on the way to play it).
If is can help with something let me know.
In the meantime i will be busy to get all the tables and in between will try to get some nice scores online.

A member (sternrulez) of this forum made a thread a while ago with the links to all the tables.
http://www.vpforums....hl=+list +links

It's outdated now, but maybe someone wants to bring it back to life ???

[Baron Shadow]

Didn't read this untill now.
I have worked hard and have all the tables and bakckglasses now.
Have to set it up properly because i noticed when playing just now that i didn't see the backglasses.
I played now with the pinemhi frontend and was wondering how to match them.
Sorry i got sometimes things mixed up probably.

[DnaDisturber]

If you use pinemhi leaderboard frontend i think the backglass has to be named exactly as the tablename.

If you use the pinballx plugin then the backglass can be the gamename , for instance Medieval Madness (19xx)

 

[Baron Shadow]

Well i have all the right tables and b2s backglasses now.
Have played some but can get into competition now
Will have to take a look at the challenges because i don't know what they do haven't looked at them yet.
Sounds interesting so i hope it is.

I think the version of Batman you used (alpha bmpr 1.2) is wrong, it's missing a wall so we cannot hit the cave ramp. I just changed it but now if I play the table in Pinemhi I would be cheating  > maybe you should remove the table as long as it's not officially updated ?

Here's the link with kiwi's notification of the error :

[DnaDisturber]

Thanks for telling and not cheating lol

Maybe we should go back to the Previous version , the one from LH
I'll change that one when i update the other tables again.

Well, this was sure a long time coming! Ruled the Universe twice on Ball One, but used at least one Extra Ball doing it, then finally was able to sustain a Victory Lap attack for a while.

Noticed that very few have played this in the last two years, and figured it could use some love.

Getting a somewhat late start on the PINemHi Leaderboard Challenges, I just downloaded OZPin's South Park (south park Ozpin v1.0.vpt) only to get the Stop sign with "You do not appear to have this table" ( I also downloaded the specified rom, sprk_103). I then opened VP9.2.0 and played a game without a hitch, but back in PINemHi I still get the stop sign.

 

I checked the 'missing table(s)' text document in PeH 2.1.2, and there it is. Search provided nothing; does anyone know how to get 'missing' tables recognized?

 

EDIT: SOLVED. The tablename has an 'extra' space, between the ZERO of the version # and the .vpt , and repeated attempts to modify the XML through Notepad were ineffective, so renaming the table in the Visual Pinball\Tables directory turned out to be the remedy.

 

Cheers!

If I had searched under 'south park' instead of 'missing tables' or 'You do not appear to have this table', I'd have learned more:

Post #1072 in this topic

Cant get south park to play at all in 5 min mode .... it's my last one.
 
EDIT---there was a space after the name in the games xml ...... copy paste the xml name to the table and it now works.
something has changed between versions maybe?

 Post # 1073

The filename used to be with a space at the end, as I can remember....Haven't really changed anything in the xml for a while. I will take a look.

Yesterday the xml did not include the mentioned space, even though the Notepad page did. As I said in the previous post, changes in Notepad weren't reflected in the xml, so I gave up and renamed the table to eliminate the extra space at the end of the name. The zip file's name still has the space.
 
Post # 1083

I have downloaded south park Ozpin v1.0 but i am getting the " you do not seem to have this table" message when i try to play it?

 Post #1084

A few posts earlier is the answer from Dedrok_V.
In the xml remove the space at the end of the tablename , it should work after that.

From the number of players who have climbed high on the challenge lists, SOMEbody had South Park working.

 

Cheers again;

Okay.....my pursuit of challenges has brought me to the table named VP9 Independence Day 1.3.1 . The only Independence Day I found in Downloads is VP9.9 2.2 . Is the 131 table still available anywhere?

what happened to my recent posts? if they were on a different thread, that one doesn't exist anymore??

WOW! Participation has really dropped recently, almost as if a bunch of well-paying jobs opened up. LMTR14 and myself are apparently the only ones to submit scores in the last few weeks...

 

I had a close call a while ago, but there are still a pair of honchos in front of me...

If this were The High Score Topic!, I would enter;

High score for me, but not for the table, of course. But when holiday distractions are over, who knows?

 

Merry Christmas and / or Happy Whatever to all!

Hi,

 

I'm trying to use Pinemhi, but could not manage to send score yet...

 

My system is Windows 10, UAC is off. And file lastaccess timestamp is set on enabled.

I'm using VP 9.90.

I checked the .ini file several times, and didn't find anything wrong.

 

Everything goes well at the beginning : I launch Pinemhi, I select the table, I play the game.

It's when I quit the game (by typing 'esc' and select "return to editor') that it goes wrong. Pinemhi seems still on, but is not diplayed... All I got is my windows desktop, without taskbar... Sometimes, when I push 'e' it come back and say "No game played"...

 

Has anyone know how to fix that?

 

Thanx !

 

[GSGregg]

Hi, gonzodr;

 

Have you gotten your code from DnaDisturber yet? I ask because I don't see this username on the player roster. Or do you use a different one for PINemHi?

 

Which version of Start Pinemhi Leaderboard have you used? Versions 1.0 and 1.5 use the ESC key to quit the game, but the Pause, Resume or Quit to Editor options menu is not available. After a few seconds the Do You Want to Submit screen is presented; use your mouse to select Yes or No, then  Yes (to play again; choose table from the list) or Exit.

 

Versions 2.0.1 and 2.1.2, which I use for VP9 (I also like v1.5 because I can select either VP8 or VP9 from it---though the game list is early and limited) are more involved as a front end with the Tables wheel cycled by the flipper buttons; press the Enter key to select the desired table. You can use ESC to pause and 'R'esume, but the Quit to Editor option is a communist plot, so I don't use it. To quit, use the 'E' key. When the 'Do You Want to Submit' screen appears, use the flippers---NOT the Mouse, as it makes things go haywire---to move the pinball icon beneath Yes or No, then press Enter to confirm. To exit, press 'E' again, or to play again, select a table and press Enter.                                 

 

Trying to Quit to Editor gives me the same Desktop (with icons, but without Taskbar or Start button) and Alt+F4 brings back whatever I was running previously. Ctrl+Alt+Delete opens TaskManager which can be used for ending a rogue program, but neither brought back my taskbar. I didn't want to waste a bunch of time looking up the problem (Microsoft Answers or whatever didn't seem to deal with our precise scenario) so I just killed the power switch and restarted.....VOILA! Taskbar!

 

 

Don't know when you signed onto PINemHi, but welcome!

[gonzodr]

You fixed my problem !

 

I use version 2.1.2. Actually, I thought VP was launched independantly from Pinemhi, and that's why I always used the "esc" + "quit to editor" keys. Definitly not the way to use the thing

I never thought to type "e" directly from VP :S ....

 

I just tried now (with the e key in VP), and everything worked. My score has been well submit.

By the way, I use a different nickname in pinemhi (FredWood).

 

Thank you, Gregg!

[GSGregg]

Glad to help, gonzodr. Enjoy!

[GSGregg]

Okay.....does anyone know how to get Scared Stiff's Spider Championship to register with PINemHi Leaderboard? I thought it was odd that DedRok_V got it only once (maybe, or maybe more?) but after my first two times were acknowledged, I submitted a few more, only to find that they didn't register and my tally is still two. Some time later I realized I could document them with screenshots, so here are the two most recent. Played on JPSalas' VP91x v1.4.4, with an invisible 'roof' over the right ramp to keep balls from going airborne and winding up out of play---suggested by Shoopity, who has remade the table for VP990.
