I'll send you the whole table because I changed the lighting script. Now you can tune up the flashers the way you want by increasing the opacity; I setted modulate 1 and opacity at least 1000 % to have a nice effect.

A couple of more tweaks and then I send you the table back.

Update guys.

The prim clear ramp is in and damn... does it look good. Also more flashy lights. Thanks ninuzzu.

 

I have also added a switchable drain cheater-post which can be set in the script options. Also note that I have changed "FPS limiter/Vsync" to 0. Using this setting on my cab, my gameplay is liquid smooth at 160FPS. If I use 1 (Vsync) or 60, its choppy as Hell. Interested in seeing what other folks are using for this setting.

 

Not much left to do on this one.

 

New rev is up in post #1.

Holy crap. That ramp looks amazing.

 

I have never had good performance using Vsync either.

Leave the values at -1 so it uses the user defined settings in the video options. I like it at 60 to save power.

 

Looks like it's really coming together. I'm getting a bunch of missing switches in the test report, 39 46 47 48 and 59. It says most of these are 10 point switches, if these are on rubber bands you can give the rubber objects hit events directly.

 

Right drop target bank needs a material

I've had vsync set to 1 and get smooth gameplay. No stutter. Haven't downloaded the latest version with new ramp yet.

I will look into the missing switches and the drops.

Regarding the FPS setting. Is "-1" and "1" the same thing? Or do they mean something different?

-1 means using the default settings, 1 means vsync.

 

I do not have switch problems - maybe you should delete nvram first.

Yep if your getting switch errors. Delete your "DD***"" NVRAM. Same thing happened to me.

Thanks CK.

 

FPS set back to -1

 

I cant explain why my cab does not like Vsync. Anybody else using unlimited FPS. Would like to hear what FPS your getting.

I get stutter with vsync too

 

Switches 39, 46, 47, 48, and 59 don't have objects associated with them, and 59 isn't in the script either. Resetting the ram will reset the test report, but the game code will notice the 'malfunctioning' switches again eventually.

Still looking for the easter egg nin. Gimme a hint. LOL

 

Playing the table on my full DOF cab is simply an incredible experience. Of course I am a little biased. :) Thanks again to everyone who has contributed. Hopefully I have all listed in my credits in the script. Like I said, not much left to do now. I expect the table to be completed this weekend.

 

Latest rev is up in post #1.
