To make life easier for myself I made a reference text file that contains the majority of DOFLinx code lines that someone would use when modding a table to support DOFLinx. Next to the code itself it also contains all the code comments for understanding and documentation.

 

When working on a table I have on the left side of my screen the text file open and on the right side the table script. If I need a certain code a just copy it for the text file and insert it into the table script and enrich it with the required parameters (e.g. iterations, duration, color...). It saves me a lot of time!

 

For instruction how to mod a table please take a look at the documentation DHH69 made and the great instruction videos from TerryRed (http://www.vpforums....showtopic=36311) and his template guide (http://www.vpforums....showtopic=36047).

 

The text file contains default commands for:

 

- Initialization of a table

- DOFLinx Timer

- Start Button Light routine

- Flippers

- Slingshots

- Mid solenoids

- Top solenoids

- Flashers

- Buttons

- Miscellaneous (e.g. shaker, blower, strobe, knocker)

- Animation sequences

- Generic documentation at start of table

 

Hope this helps others in doing DOFLinx Table Scripting and I hope to see more DOFLinx enabled tables in the Future (of Pinball)!

I've done the same thing myself, though it needed a bit of updating. It really does help since alot of the commands and entries will be the same for most tables.

 

Great job. Once you get into the groove of doing tables, having a text file like this makes it so much easier, and also helps others who are getting started.

Hello ...... the modding bug has struck    (to all of our benefit I should add)
