Beautiful table! For me, the plunger works but the image remains static, regardless of whether my Sidewinder is plugged in or not.

Has somebody rotated this table to FS and Can Post The parameters?

Thanks you ttrenkner! have you tried the Rom, and restarted the game?

 

it's just a credit, and plunger operation. The keys work as the default, 5 & 1.

Has somebody rotated this table to FS and Can Post The parameters?

 

i think i saw an FS conversion for this table somewhere. Perhaps that table has the no's.

i'm sure we will bump into someone who knows, i'll ask hmuet, he was a great hand with my Bounty Hunter table.

 

even so, i would have to redo some of the graphics for the port to work, at the moment you won't get any figurines and faceplate. 

i'll have to see what i can do, this one is more complicated than usual.

Looks good, but unfortunately when I shrink the x-scale value to fit my monitor properly, a lot of things aren't lined up anymore, and I can't really play with a stretched aspect ratio & oblong ball like that. Maybe there are other methods you could use to keep that from happening?

[ttrenkner]

Baloo42,

 

The game plays fine, but at least for me, the plunger remains a static image when you launch the ball. The ball is put in play though.

Okay, i ran it through the same thing you did. This table can only be played in WS at the moment, there is a way i can make custom graphics to fit FS and various aspect ratios. 

 

(PS, scaling aspect ratios is a lot easier for me to make graphics for than creating an FS conversion, so if you post me your dimensions you want, i can make them for you.)

Thanks. I understand so little about the table making process that I never know whether the problem's on my end.

hahah, thanks for noting it ttrenkner, i think i was too tired, and missed that. Really appreciate it!

New update will feature something i've had in mind from the beginning >> all real gold wire ramp finishes!

 

(this is later after lots and lots of cutting)

Awesome news!! If there was every a gripe I had with VP was exactly that, that the wire ramps always looked bland and flat. I can't wait to see this updated. Thank You sir!!!
