Sounds are very quiet in this table. I wanted to change that as it's explained here but got no END key on my laptop. Is there a way to open coin door without the END key ?

What kind of laptop is it? All of the laptops I've seen have an END key, either by itself or shared with another function. The key is usually located on the upper right side of the keyboard (along with Page Up, Page Down, etc.)

Asus M50VC, with numpad. I can make the END key with SHIFT+1 but it doesnt work in VP.
Maybe there's a way to redefine the "open door" key ?

Can you click the num lock key to set it to off? Then you should be able to click end using the 1 key.

I tried this, it works in Words, but not in VP.
Where is the "kick the door" key ?

Odd indeed. I thought it would work doing that, but it obviously doesn't.

The only thing I can suggest you do now is to edit the vpmKeys.vbs file and change the ASCII code for keyCoinDoor to a code for a key that you can use. You may have to open this in notepad in order to be able to edit it.

Other than that, I don't know what else to tell you.

Thanks ta2686, that's exactly what I needed, a config file to redefine keys.

Problem is I don't know how it works : which number should I put in order to change the key from "END" to "j" (for example, I hope the "j" isn't used in VP) in the code :
keyCoinDoor = 207 '(End) Opening/Closing Coin Door

What you can do is go to Appendix I of Wizards_Hat's VP guide. He lists all of the keycodes there. The pdf file for the guide you can find here:

(Thanks Wizards_Hat for the guide!)

Hope this helps.

Update 2.3.2 10 July 2011
- Updated the flashers with stronger bulbs
- Fixed a few small things, like the ball getting stuck on the ramp behind the dragon.

I didn't have much to do today, so I thought why not add some of those flashers made with alpha ramps? So here they are They aren't much different than the old ones, I just added a simple spark.

Thank you JPSalas for the new update.

Hi!

First off, thanx for giving me many hours of thrill and excitement with the MM table. I was so glad when i got VP up and running with MM.

However, I think I've come across a bug with the multiball madness. I'm can not retrace exactly how and when it happens, but quite often when I play and have collected a multiball the following multiballs never get lit, but automatically are collected.

After playing a while and unlocking another multiball, the corresponding light never blinks, but get constantly lit as if I have already collected the multiball. This goes on with all future madness multiballs during that credit and I'm not able to collect anymore madness multiballs. They all automatically gets collected when they just should be lit.

I've tried to open the coin door and reset factory settings, reset the VPinMAME but it's still there. This does not happen every time, but just sometimes.

I'm running VP version 912 and VPinMAME 2.5, on an intel processor with an ATI graphic adapter (if that makes any difference?).

Anyone seen this problem? Any advice if I can fix it myself?

Cheers
ArchAngel

are you talking about the main multiball that you lock in the castle wall, or the Damsel, troll, peasant, joust, catapult multiballs?

[petecoomali]

Once you have played a Multiball Madness, you may not play any of it again until after you have played Royal Madness by lighting all 5 Madness lights.

Try to get as many of the Madnesses lit for Multiball Madness before starting it.

Not the Castle Multiball. The Multiball Madness (damsel, troll, peasant etc...)

I'd gotten the impression that I can get one at a time and not have to forsake the others...

Searching some more, I found detailed instructions for how the multiball madness works, and I stand corrected. Sorry for submitting this post about it being a bug, my bad.

Thanx for the clarifying reply petecoomali.

Hello

Does anybody know what the arguments does on this line
Door1.Move 0,2,90

What does 0,2,90 mean?

[xio]

I would say x,y,z values for the object movement but I cannot find any reference for this

Edit : I was completely wrong, I found that from a destruk post :
'GateName.Move ?,Speed or Number of steps for animation, Ending degree angle between open and close angles

That must be referenced somewhere...
