1. First of all the plunger. Easy Plungers now??? Skill Shot on every Plung!
2. Terrible Phsyics. On old EM Machines the Ball creeps like this. The Slope is much to low.
3. Flippersettings are totaly wrong and unrealistic

I always have to wonder about these points. Don't these things differ with every table? For instance, I have never, EVER seen a table in real life that is CLOSE to being as fast as the
VP8 LOTR. In my opinion, those slope settings are insane. The two LOTRs I played were very easy on the plunger, had relatively slow slopes and played quite similarly to this table. It differs from table to table because of table condition, the way the table is placed in the room etc. My two cents.
The McD
No believe me, it donīt play like this one! Drop off the flippers is not possible, cause the Return Strenght is much to high! The ball brakes to fast. Not enough elasticy. My best friend owns LOTR Machine, and as he played the JPG PIN Version, he said that this is the first Machine that comes close to real. Believe me, i have played this pin i guess a hundret hours, i know every screw and every rubber of that pin
Sometimes it matters how you say it.... Just keep criticism friendly. People are spending countless hours on this hobby and should always be treated with that in mind (I'm sure JP will never act like this).
The McD has some valid points also. Not every real live pin plays the same, and I personally don't even mind if a
VP table doesn't play exactly as the real one. JP has his own way and method, but is surely not deaf for criticism that is decent and can improve his tables.
Iīm just dissapointed that he throw everything i have done away FOR THIS.... Itīs his own thang what he do...And i just tell the truth..this is no critism.
He do great tables and have done very nice improvements that no other has done before, but it donīt mean the he couldnīt can do a Bad Table.
And this is a bad Table! Ok, on the Physicsside everybody have his own mind and feeling...but Graphic Quality is visble and there is nothing you can
discuss about. This is a step back in quality. And just like i said, this is no critism or making bad tables, is just the truth.....
