UW, I would rather wait 20 seconds to play a game with the head in right position, than start right away in wrong position.

Please use the timer if it ensures an accurate "head"

 

Thanks - and of course, it looks AWESOME

Typically once the head is homed, it's good. The only issue that arises is if you quit the game when the head is not in the home position. Then it gets out of sync. And requires deleting the nvram starting the game, pressing f3 to reset, letting the head calibrate, then restarting the game.
Which is a complete pain in the a$$ in a cabinet.

So I figured a few seconds of wait time, basically however long it takes for pinmame to run the head calibration, in which you can't start a game anyway, will make it always run right no mater how the face is oriented when you quit.

Yea cause my kid is bad about playing a table for 10sec then just quiting and starting another lol

[unclewilly]

the build is done and coded.

what remains:

 

lights and gi

details 

physics

fixing the head so it is always homed and doesn't stop mid rotation on the human face.

 

shouldn't be too long

 

then on to pinball magic which will take some time

 

thewool or jimmy fingers,  interested in doing some physics?

Oh damnit...the rubber in the middle of the playfield is gone

[Slydog43]

what are the Red and Greenish circles in the middle of the playfield for?

[arngrim]

and the gear to mouth movement with dof, i can check this week-end

[unclewilly]

I was using them to help with the head coding. They show when the 2 solenoids for the head are fired.
I think I figured out a way around the issue with the head stopping on the human face a few minutes ago so I'll try it out after work
Yes. Most likely you will have to hand code it like you did with dracula.
Using the solenoids isn't working too well

Wow! The Table looks soooooo good    Bop is one of my favorit pinball ever. I played the original very often in the 90´s and now an my iPad with PinballArcade. Can´t wait to install it on my cab at home

Navel ring, she lost her navel ring!

[unclewilly]

I guess I can put it back.
And have it shake when you nudge the table, like the ufo in afm

[unclewilly]

You think you can model me some tassels for on top of the 2 red flashers

[StevOz]

Never mind the navel, what is that between her lips?

Oh yeah just noticed in the pic. Don't let me release this without setting the left ramp plastic with the flasher on it, back to visible
That is actually a light bulb underneath the steve.

There is a hole in the mouth and eyes on all of the faces and lights underneath that flash during gameplay

[StevOz]

Oh a bulb and I was thinking she was just showing off her talents.

[unclewilly]

Lmao

StevOz....hahahaha......now this bride getting abit sloppy in my eyes!

That's what I was thinking, Tassels and a jiggling navel ring, I think Pin-Bot is marrying a stripper!!

It does explain why balls keep flying at her face though!

[The Loafer]

you guys seriously did not just notice that ramp design with the bride... just now right?
