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.

A great companion to Canada Dry. Love this layout!

   LM--thank you for this update. Would love to use this new version---especially for the HS save feature. I'm not getting a backglass .The LMEMDOFTables.txt did not automatically create for me, so I manually created the file in the User folder and put a 1 in it. Any ideas?

   I poked around in the script and found on line 1814 where I changed B2S to True. All good now. Thanks again
