The Plunger Kits are in stock and available on the VirtuaPin site.

I spent a lot of time this week adding a new shipping module that calculates international shipping.

You can now order straight through the site.

Can't believe I have had a Motion DIY adapter with plunger in a box all this time. I hooked it up in my cabinet and a few changes to some tables and WOW, its really cool, nudging and real analog plunger. Any one know how to adjust the sensativity either control panel (win xp) or vp table setting or table script?

wow I am a very happy chappy dblthumb.gif , after 10 days of waiting it's here, just picked it up from the post office.
Can't wait to get this thing installed but it will have to wait until my next day off work. sad.gif
a big thank you to you Noah, I have gone through so much bs over the last year to buy one of these and you are the only person to
deliver what they said they would and could, where others failed very badly to deliver..

Australian forum users if you want one of these get your order from Noah.

cheers

With the newer versions of VP you can adjust sensitivity with the deadzone setting. Open VP, open any table, it'll be at the bottom right corner of the options window with a percentage slider. The closer to 0 the more sensitive it will be.
Sensitivity only affects the slope/nudge settings - X and Y axis.

thanks for the info. I actually have played around with a few of the settings and found that the accelerameter gain is what I was looking for I think. I change it from 1.5 to 2 and it reacts pretty well I think. I also use the modded core3.3 vbs file (I think that is the version)

cancel your order and buy it from www.wolfsoft.de, they have it in stock and are located in germany. so it should be very fast in belgium.


Hi Chris,

That's good to hear, I hope the PBW is not sent yet, so I can cancel indeed.

And I hope I will have the possibility to cancel my order, as they even haven't replied to my mail...



Hello,

The 11th I asked to David to cancel my order, and give my money back.

He replied the same day that he will process your refund right away.

On the 16th I didn't see anything back, so I replied that day to know the status of my cancellation order.

Until now I haven't received my money back, nor a feedback from David.

I have sent another mail today, but if you can help also.

Thanks

Hi all,
Does anyone know how to configure tables that use alpha ramps for their plungers to work with the nanotech plunger? Thanks to a post from Noah I've manged to modify tables with Kicker, Light and Wall-based plungers but can't work these alpha ramps plungers out. An example of this is JP's Tales of the Arabian Nights v3.1.2 FS where he has got code to allow the mechanical plunger in there but I just can't get it to work unsure.gif Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'll get some time this week to work on that.
