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.
 
Operator menu options are as follows:
"[" - open/close the operator menu
"6" - changes balls per game (3/5)
"7" - changes the planet replay settings
"8" - change replay settings
On the full screen version, pay attention to the apron to tell whether it is set for 3 or 5 ball play and which replay settings you have selected.
This table includes new high score routines (from GNance) that allow the table to keep track of the top 5 scores. If you get a high score, flippers change the letters and start key (default "1") enters that letter.
