Thank you Bigus! Table looks really nice

 

Hoping one of your mods on JM is coming soon

I had a problem with multiball. I locked a ball and then a ball came into the shooter lane I was then able to get that ball up the ramp, but no ball came out of the shooter lane or lock area. This may have been a one time thing.

[bha19]

I have played several games and the same bug never happened again so it was probably a one time thing.

[Practicedummy]

Great job on this one! A goot Gottlieb game.

[Glocko]

Nice job, mate. I liked this table already but like it even more now.

[Rajo Joey]

Here are my two wheels for this table.

As always you find my wheels in my MEGA-account or in the PinUp Popper media-database in better quality:

Are the ball rolling sounds working or is it on my side?

[bigus1]

They work but the samples aren't very loud. Grab one from another table and reset the volume in Position to 0.0  for each one you re-import. 

The first 3 is all you need (fx_ballrolling0/1/2)

[Emre]

Thank you, importing and replacing new sound files fixed it.

thanks for sharing the great work, very fun and noisy table

 

I increased the measurements of the "Alpha" I, II, III targets here and I believe it will be more harmonious and faithful to the original table... maybe in a future update I can correct this...

 

I used the following parameters here:

 

Position:

Scale X = 41

Scale Y = 32

Scale Z = 30

[bigus1]

I've done an update with your target resize plus ball/flipper shadows and physics and layout changes

[aschon]

Last couple of tables in desktop mode on PC score won't display and I think all flexdmd is turned off? Is there a way to display score? Any help as always much appreciated! Thanks

[bigus1]

You need to have the latest FlexDMD version for 10.8/3.6  and it should already be enabled in the script by default.  Also need latest B2S server - even if you don't use it

[aschon]

Ah ok will try that, thx!
