For this table, I am using my new method for enabling/disabling the dB2S backglass. By default the backglass is disabled. The easy way to enable it is this method:
1.Launch table and then exit. It will auto-create a file in the USER folder of VPinball named "LMEMTables.txt"
2.Open this file in notepad and change the "0" to a "1" and save.
3.Next time you launch, the backglass will launch.
Or for the die hards out there, create a text file in the USER folder named LMEMTables.txt and put a "1" (no quotes) on the first line and save it.
 
The options menu is now available by holding down the left flipper key for about 2 seconds when a game is not in progress. Once opened, left flipper moves between the different menu items and the right flipper goes through that item's available choices.

Not sure if this is an issue with anyone else but I get the following error when starting the table Blue Note (Which looks to be another beautiful table of yours):

Fatal error: HRESULT 8876086c at RenderDevice.ccp:506

 

I'm running VP991 on Windows 7 Home Premium on Intel i3 Core w/Intel 2500 Graphics

 

I don't have any issues with any of your other tables.

I get the same error.

[hmueck]

This error occures when your graphic "card" runs out of memory.

[tohara]

hmueck is correct, through some added research I found a possible fix; Change your max texture size in Visual Pinball options to 1024 or 512 if necessary, that should shrink your video memory usage as this is a problem with video cards that have <=2GB of RAM.

 

Hope that helps.
