DOFLinx - "A powerful utility for cabinet owners to make the most of force feedback and lighting." - by DDH69
This Future Pinball table has DOFLinx commands added to it. This will enable support for pinball cabinet force feedback devices such as flipper solenoids, shaker motor, contactors for drop targets-slingshots-bumpers, FIRE button, lighting effects, blower fan, beacon, strobes and more! This will work with Led-Wiz, Sainsmart USB, PacLed64, and KL25Z.
 
Requirements / Installation: Regardless of using this table with force feedback (Pinball Cabinet) or without (Desktop), you MUST install the current DOFLinx.vbs script into your ‘Future Pinball\Scripts’ folder. Running the table without DOFLinx.vbs will cause an error. (FF_INIT)
 
Copy the *.fpt and .xml files to your Future "Pinball\Tables" folder
 
DOFLinx.vbs is included with the DOFLinx install package. This file is not included with this table to avoid version mismatches.
 
DOFLinx install package download:
The current download of DOFLinx can be found through this post at vpforums:

It is recommended to use this table with BAM (Better Arcade Mode), in order to get the most accurate version of physics intended for this table. Copy the *.fpt and *.xml within this archive to your "Future Pinball\Tables" directory.
 
Cabinet Use:
For cabinet users running DOFLinx: This table will function with the in-game sounds for mechanical devices such as flippers,
slingshots, bumpers, etc muted.  Instead, you will only hear your cabinet's feedback devices for those actions.
The rest of the game's sounds will play normally as intended by the table author.
 
Desktop Use:
For desktop users: This table CAN still function normally without DOFLinx running, but you MUST have the DOFLinx.vbs script file in your "scripts" folder.
(read "Requirements / Installation"). It will play perfectly with the original in-game mechanical sounds playing through your PC's speakers.
 
Note: Any DMDs or HudOverlays intended for desktop use were moved to the backbox (translite) so that cabinet users can see them. 
 
Night Mode:
For cabinet users who want to play at night with their cabinet noise makers turned off, this table can be toggled between 
Cabinet Use (noisy), and Desktop Use (Night Mode). Please consult the DOFLinx guide (included with the DOFLinx install package)
for more information on how to use Night Mode. 
 
Custom Backbox Overlay Frame:
I added a custom "Overlay" frame on the backglass that fits a 16:9 screen perfectly and works with the videos and LCD graphics on the backbox. If you don't want to use this and prefer the original backbox artwork, then just use the Future Pinball editor...chose Translite...and then "unlock" and drag the "SupermanBG" Overlay off screen..and save the table.
 
We hope you enjoy the DOFLinx cabinet experience!

Thanks, Terry, keep 'em coming.  FYI it seems like there's a typo at line 4924: "Kickcer"

Thanks, Terry, keep 'em coming.  FYI it seems like there's a typo at line 4924: "Kickcer"

 

Thanks for the catch... I corrected this and uploaded a newer v1.1 with this fix, as well as replacing "grey" with "yellow" for a center flasher.  (DOF uses Gray, not Grey)

Hi, many thanks for this superb table.

I play in cabinet mode.

Is there any way to remove the movie and the dmd from the playfield? 

 

Thanks again

What a beautiful looking table...but the flippers seem a bit weak, am i missing something? Sorry if its a silly question.

[TerryRed]

This is an older table.... and you may not be using he correct BAM xml file for physic 2.7 which this table uses.

 

Ideally it needs to be updated to use newer BAM dynamic physics for the flipper, etc.

I just re-read your info Terry, i have the lastest XML file [2.7]

Copy the *.fpt and .xml files to your Future "Pinball\Tables" folder

I just copied it to the tables folder and renamed the one in /BAM/XML folder  [which is where i thought it should go]

is it my imagination? its wildly better!!

Thanks
