Twilight Zone for Visual Pinball 9.2.1.
Thanks to Francisco666 and rom  for all the resources in their FP version
Thanks to JPSalas (routines, images...) UW (flashers) kiwi (rings)
At this moment, the table has no option menu.
Thanks to all the other table authors who made this table (Pacdude, Groni, Scapino...), I've used some parts of the script from that tables.

Table looks nice. Tried to playit with DX9--ball goes right through the flipper. So I launched it with 9.2.1 and it did the same thing. I'll DL the table again to see if that makes any diff. Thank you

I think I read something about this, .... and I think is fixed deleting the vnram file. try it?

Oh and thank melon!! I played like 6 straight games lol

[arngrim]

Excellent!
Imo the playfield is too bright, when you play in the dark, it shines too much
I need to review the dof, maybe diminish the strobe, add contactors, check the gear which is activated too long sometimes, add a fan to the rocket launch

I'm using here same flipper system than in JP's latest AFM. Flippers are primitives. if you select one flipper, you should see visible unchecked and enabled and compatibility Mode checked, otherwise the ball will go through the flipper.

[BobAlbright]

Thanks for your quick reply , Melon. When I look at the primitive flipper in the editor I see Visible

I don't see"enabled" and "compatability mode". Are they somewhere else? Thanks

[melon]

The flippers are made of 2 elements, the flipper itself and the primitive above this one. You are selecting the primitive, select the flipper (ie, the left flipper is called leftFlipper and the primitive flipperl, you can right click and select the correct element)

[BobAlbright]

Sorry for not being able to get it. I see that if I clik a little further down on the flipper I get "flipper". Right clicking on it still doesn't reveal a "enabled" or "compatability mode" button. Sorry for being so "lost". Thanks again.

[gigalula]

Thanks ...

Same here. For me it worked to add the "If Keycode = KeyFront Then Controller.Switch(23) ..." lines in the KeyDown and KeyUp subroutines.

Rembered this solution from another table (don't remember which one)

Sub TZ_KeyDown(ByVal keycode)
	  If Keycode = KeyFront Then Controller.Switch(23) = 1
          .....

 Sub TZ_KeyUp(ByVal keycode) 
    If Keycode = KeyFront Then Controller.Switch(23) = 0
    ...

The heavens opened up. and angels sang unto us, "let there beeeeeeee, TWILIGHT ZONE!"

 

And a door appeared before us, the voice beckoned, "you unlock this door, with the key of imagination"

Game looks great but transparent squares of distortion follow the ball and distirt playfield, flashers and other moving parts including bumpers and flippers get light clear squares around them.  Just my crappy video card ?  (Quadro 600, all my other 185 tables are fine).  Using 9.2.1

[Slydog43]

check your region updates and that other option right next to it (sorry cant remember its name). check one of these did it for me, although vp DX9 works fine.

[akiles50000]

Thanks melon.

[arngrim]

I couldn't enjoy the table without a revision of the DOF, it is just done now, enjoy!

 

for having the gear triggered by the clock, add this line on the script

 

Sub UpdateClock

Dim Time, Min, Hour, temp

Time = CInt(Controller.GetMech(0))

If Time <> LastTime Then

Controller.B2SSetData 101, 1:Controller.B2SSetData 101, 0

Min = (Time Mod 60)

Hour = Int(Time /2)

ClockShort.RotZ = -Hour  + 45

ClockLarge.RotZ = -min * 6 

LastTime = Time

Stopsound "motor" 

Playsound "motor" 

End If

 End Sub 

 

I will do DOF concorde but later

Brilliant, thanks that did it!

There's a nasty bug where you can only get locks on the first game. Also messes with some other things. Anyway, the problem is that switch54 is implemented as a Gate but a gate has no Unhit()  event. Changing it to a trigger worked wonders.
