WOW, this one is really old. Thanks for release.

[jpsalas]

There was an error on the credits on the db2s, I have fixed the problem, but  you need to redownload both the db2s and the table, as it was needed a small fix on both. That's a problem when reusing scripts from older tables

[hmueck]

I guess this is "by design" and happens on the real table?!

 

[digitalarts]

Me, too

[jpsalas]

Yes, I guess that must happen to the real table too, unless the ball in the hole is much lower. I tried making the hole lower, but it didn't look anymore like the the pictures or videos, so I left it like it is now

Thanks again Halen and JPS ! <3

It's not a bug, it's a feature 😁

Hi !

 

It happens that I have only 4 balls to play instead of the usual 5 balls, is it normal for this table ?

 

Because I saw 5 balls before starting the game.

 

I searched the answer on ipdb but with no success.

 

Maybe that's because I reached the top hole ?

 

Thanks in advance for your answer and help.

 

Edit : I have VPX8.7 last version to date I think.

I haven't a clue why you get only 4 balls. I have tried the table a lot and I always get 5. I'll keep trying and I'll see if I can find a bug somewhere.

I see the problem, sometimes the table goes to the highscore routine before it is finished counting the score. I'll fix that and I'll make an update.

Super merci beaucoup

Well it happened the first times I've played the table, and each time with the first ball I reached the top hole (don't know if it's what makes it a 4 ball game).

 

I wanted to reproduce it by playing it again, but now there's 5 balls like intended, even with the first ball going into the top hole. Maybe it happens when it loads the table for the first time ?

 

So don't worry too much about this please. If it's only for the first time we play the table it's ok really.

 

Thanks again for the table and for your help.

I haven't found any error about the balls, everything seem to be fine.

 

But I have fixed the error with the wrong score in the highscore. It was what I thought, that the highscore routines started too early when the table was still scoring points. In the last ball if you scored 500.000 or 1 million on one of the holes, then the game is over and the highscore routines started right away, but the table was still counting points. I have had another table doing the same I'll upload the table in a few minutes, must play a few rounds first

I mostly only drink water But I don't sleep much, I guess I'm getting old And just now I have a lot of time to make tables, but from next month and until July I won't be much home, so my table production will be much much less than now

I'll be mostly in Spain, Torremolinos and Mallorca, just enjoying my retirement from work, taking a little sun and relaxing on the beach Here in Norway is freezing! So it is best to get away

In Valhalla the weather is always fine

 

In Fólkvangr on the other hand, it's totally at the whim of the silly girl in charge

[Cliffy]

Another wonderful woodrail, thanks JP. However, it's missing the balls collecting in the trough and the lifter/eject sounds. I checked again Universe and you have them in there- just not here

Grand merci Mr Salas pour cette mise à jour

Magnifique !

 

Bon séjour au soleil !
