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 "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.

I like the Lighting on playfield and plastics and backdrop. Physics seem great!!

Thanks for this great table!!

Voted 5 Stars!!!

 

Keep on Pinballin'

 

PS:

 

If you get a Fatal Error when starting this table,

 

Start the Visual Pinball Editor from short cut on desktop...

Click the "Preferences" Tab at top of editor.

Click "Video Options"

In the lower-right in the Video Options you will see...

 

Max Texture Dimension (for low-end gfx boards)

 

Change from Unlimited to 1024

 

Now play game and you won't see the  "Fatal Error HRESULT 8876086c at RenderDevice.cpp:506"

 

I think this is because my graphics card is not good enough to have the Unlimited Max Texture Dimension.

 

So for those who might also get this error, you now have a fix for it.

 

Excellent table Sir!!!

 

Keep on Pinballin'

the problem is with the HUD-Match.png image.  a  low end video card will probably crash with a 4000-5000 pixel image.  This image is 13000 pixels.

 

 

I sized the imaget down to  139x3618
