The table plays great. However, this is one of a handful of tables that I have to turn hw rendering off (or I get the 'off screen object' error). As a result, the transparent ramps look kind of blah. I wish I could figure out why most tables work w/ hw rendering, but a few don't. Another table that comes to mind is circus voltaire. At the same time, all of groni's tables and most other vp9 tables work fine on my system w/ hw rendering enabled.

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. Here are my system specs:

CPU: Intel P4 3.06ghz
Ram: 1.5 gb
Video Card: Nvidia GeForce 7900 GS (256mb) / driver version: 6.14.11.8208
OS: Win XP sp 3

I am of course using vp 9.03 and the latest pinmame. Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

Hm. I thought I could lay off installing the XP drivers for my card until your TAF gets finished.

Guess I thought wrong.

It maybe your graphics card. I know mine is a GeForce but I have a 1 GB card instead of 256mb. Do a search on graphics cards. Because the tables are so graphics intense, many artwork files, etc., the card can't handle it. Just my opinion.

Thanks for another great table U.W. Some games I'll score well and some make me slap the glass in frustration, a true testament to its vitality. The ramps are pretty sweet.

I have some horrible news concerning my pc. Sob... My video card is dying...

Sob...

which means I will need to buy a new video card ... Sob...

Which means I will finally be able to get a half decent card with half decent amount of memory to play these fantastic tables.

sob... er... I mean YAfrigginHOOO!!! smile.gif

Thanks Uncle Willy. You've become quite the author, your tables look and play great and I, as well as many others, really appreciate that you put out these 4:3 tables. Since you have a pincab, I know you do these strickly for the community and man, it's extremely appreciated!

Kudos to you good sir!
