in addition to the "standard" keys (typically "1" to start game and "5" for coin), I've added "3" as another coin input and "4" for coin and auto-start game (like I recall the dime slots generally were) to simulate 3 coin slots
when game is not in progress, holding down left flipper for about 3-5 seconds will bring up the options menu. left flipper selects item, right flipper changes option.
I've also included shadows for the ball and flippers. If you want to turn them off look for these lines at the beginning of the script:
Const ShadowFlippersOn = true
Const ShadowBallOn = true
change to false if you want either of the shadows not showing on your tables

This table is the first, which doesn't work well.

 

The rollovers doesn't count.

The ball stops during running to the right flipper.

And the ball stops abrupt on the left flipper, if the flipper is up.

 

And the sound of this table is like the real one: terrible! But that's no error.

You can change the sound by holding both flippers at start Joey2001. Choose between original Zaccaria or get Gottlieb Sound.

I'll take a look. Zaccaria's have weird flipper and feeding inlanes. might be a post from the conversion process isn't quite set correctly. And yes, that sound is horrid and is what a real one sounds like. Drove me nuts when I was doing the VP9x version and that's why there's the option to put Gottlieb sounds instead.

Which trigger/rollover are you having trouble with? The 3 rollovers at the top all score, the inlane & outlane triggers all score. The one on the upper left only scores when the path is lit, the top button rollover scores no points but advances bonus. Did I miss something?

I see a video of the table and it seems, that the upper rollover score points.

Or I didn't see it correct? Take a look at the backglass, when the rollover is hit.

So you are talking the 3 top rollovers when you launch the ball? I'll look again, but I saw it scoring on mine.

I think, we are speaking about different things.

I mean these.

It looks like it advances bonus and scores point, when the ball rolls above.

Maybe it's my brain, that fails.

[loserman76]

that trigger setup in my table is based on the information I was provided by an owner of this table and that is that it only advances bonus. Since the video moves too quickly I can't tell if it is scoring that or off the rollover the ball goes through.
