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.
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 "LMEMDOFTables.txt"
2.Open this file in notepad and change the "0" to a "1" if you want B2S and the sounds I included in the table script or "2" if you want B2S and the DOF sounds 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 LMEMDOFTables.txt and put a "1" or a "2" (no quotes) on the first line and save it.

   Thank you LM! Tough table! Loving the post it

Found a bit of an issue...

 

Hitting nudge bounces the left side captive booster bonus ball enough to trigger the bonus increase. You can actually let the play ball sit on the plunger and rack up infinite points this way. Nudge strength to high? Bonus trigger to sensitive?

 

Obviously, one can restrain himself from outright cheating the table, but every time you nudge you get a free bonus score
