Great job. My only question is why is the knocker not working?

[gtxjoe]

Knocker  You guys are good.  To turn on the knocker, change line 154

Const solnumKnocker=0'6  

to

Const solnumKnocker=6

 

I was play testing this but noticed that the knocker is getting triggered during gameplay, so I left it out.  Give it a try and let me know what you think.  Maybe someone familiar with the real table can recall if this was maybe a bell sound instead the knocker, that might make more sense during gameplay...

Works great now thanks. I noticed it only knocks when a replay is scored like it should and not during other times.

Thank you for this absolutely great work!

Sent the VP8 version to well-earned retirement...

[gtxjoe]

Thanks.  

 

FYI - Kiwi mentioned on the cabinet thread that the quality of the plastics (jagged edges) can be fixed easily.  Open table, click on grey area of table.  On the Options on the right side you should see that you have selected Ramp465.  Under Color & Formatting section, change the setting from Solid to Alpha.  I will release an update with this change and adding the knocker support.
