Safe Cracker for VP9.15+

All Artwork/Lighting/GI by OldSkoolGamer
 
Please check out the 'Pretty important' part at the end of this release notes.
This was a 'from scratch' rebuild.
Table is saved with layer infos so for the best experience (and for pretty cool looking flasher) use a VP9.16 beta build or higher.

Special thanks to Unclewilly, Destruk and JPSalas for helping with the spinning wheel coding.
More thanks to Unclewilly for hints and great "Safe Cracker token" scans.

Another special thanks to Luvthatapex for helping with some very special Safe Cracker script settings.

Thanks for and to:
- Alpha Ramp Plunger code by Koadic
- Fading Lamps code, flasher images and much more from JPSalas
- Some sound files and ideas from JimmyFingers
- Ball rolling code by JimmyFingers and/or Rascal
- B2B Collision code by Steely & Pinball Ken and Koadic
and to all I've forgotten here maybe.

The table features 'Customizable Options' at the top of the table script. You may select VPinMAME, UVP or B2S, DMD rotation, GI and/or Flashers on/off, Cabinet Sounds or Ball Size.
 
Check out the awesome dB2S backglass from Dozer316. You can download it here.
 
Pretty important:
First of all you should configure the "insert a won token into the machine" button. To do this check the script options and set "Token_Key_Test" to 1. Start the table and press the button on your cab that should be used as this special insert button (i.e. use your "extra ball" button). You should get a message box with the keycode of that button. Now stop the table, set "Token_Key_Test" back to 0 and enter the received numeric keycode at "Token_Keycode". That's it.

Have a lot fun.

And check out the awesome dB2S backglass from Dozer316. It will be uploaded pretty soon. Safe Cracker without backglass makes no sense as you're missing the "board game".

[RNunez187]

Table looks and plays great!  Can't wait for the dB2S!

Awesome table!  Time to update your signature.

[ASOT]

Looks great! Looking forward to the db2s!

[oldskoolgamer]

Enjoy - I tried my best to redraw every last thing so it would be HD.

[Dozer316]

Superb job guys, fantastic table.

[mountaingamer]

Installing now - thanks guys - you made the weekend!

Noooooo,  my cab is all over the floor right now & I have to work a 29 hour shift tomorrow; talk about torture!

Well, I bet I get a cab put back together first thing Monday! 

[mountaingamer]

I can't find the dmd....... Should I delete and re-download???? The coin was easy, just don't see a dmd . Also, can the volume be raised beside with F12?

Hmm.... So if I leave controller at 1 for vpinmame, the dmd is on the playfield. If I choose 3 for b2s, the b2s backglass works, but the dmd is gone.

I had to manually go into the b2s settings (click it, press S) and enable the DMD there.  Works great though.

[bent98]

Wow, can't wait to try. thank you!

[bitupset]

my dmd fix was to just change the script to

If cController > 4 Then 

.Hidden = True

 

oh and, GREAT TABLE THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder how long until someone gets a token.  Can't wait.  great b2s now with the board game.   Plays great!  Awesome scripting with the key detection thing, so easy

[Arcade4]

Amazing. Going to load this right now.

A little confused on what the token button thing is all about.

I have no extra buttons on my cabinet. All I have is credit, plunger, coin in, flippers and exit.

can any of these be used?

[htamas]

Great table. Getting the magic token that slides down to the apron was awesome

 

Thanks to all who were involved in this recreation.

 

As for the hidden DMD: there is no need to ever hide it in this game, so I suppose the option to set .Hidden to True was the result of copy+paste

I'm sure that IF block will be removed in the next update.

Until then, just go ahead and comment out this:

 

.Hidden = True

 

Don't forget to save.

great table..  I Havent figures it out yet but looks like alot of fun. Thanks to everyone one that helped make this!

[jhoff80]

A little confused on what the token thing is all about

 

Basically, in this game there are two modes.  The first, is the main mode, which the goal (besides getting a high score) is to earn "Magic Tokens" from the vault board game.  The second mode is activated by using a Magic Token, and it's basically a frenzy mode.

 

So you need a trigger to start the second mode.  It appears to be defaulted to the 2 key, which is also the "buy-in" button for games that allow that.  What I've done is set up my I-PAC to trigger that with the main start button by holding down the key programmed to shift mode, but I'm not sure if that option will work for you.
