Game doesn't start. My other versions work fine . Any idea why the one is having issues on my ache ? Running 10.6 final

Game needs tz_94h rom for it to start. Found on this site.

.. or you change the ROM Name in your Script !

 

bigus, please can you explain that: " ... fixed some ball traps " ? IMO there weren't any Issues on the latest Release !

[wiesshund]

Twilight Zone (P-4) - ROM - tz_p4.zip works

just tell the table to use that ROM

 

94H is the older free play home version of the ROM

Which we have

Twilight Zone (9.4H) - ROM - tz_94h.zip

 

Or we have the IFPA tourney rom

Twilight Zone (IFPA Rules) - ROM - tz_ifpa.zip

 

We have 2 pages of ROM's for this table right here

I play the crap out of tables *before* I release them so that I don't get people complaining about balls getting stuck here and there, like on other recent releases.  I managed to get a ball stuck under the right ramp and behind the hole adjacent to the upper right flipper, and I also fixed the ball jumping over the return lane plastics. It would be nice if other folks spent a bit more time testing their releases too, because these issues are very common. Cheers

Hello, I have done two High scores but each time I restart the table the scores were reset to factory settings. Any idea what happened ?

 

Ok, I have done some tests. It appears there is some kind of conflict between this table and my frontend (Pinball X). When I launch the table with VP, no problem, the scores are recording, but when I launch the table via PinballX the scores are not recording.

I have tried with other versions of this table and I don't have this problem.

 

First time I notice this conflict although hundreds of tables works just fine.

Hi,

Nice work.
I've noticed that the Gumball Machine doesn't work properly: nothing happen when the ball reach it.

you need a different rom

[bun]

Nice table, also noticed the gumball machine not loading.

[STAT]

… did you know, WHEN the Gumball Machine load Balls ?

[wiesshund]

Nice table, also noticed the gumball machine not loading.

 

it loads when you have done enough to trigger it to do it's thing.

 

which i had to cheat to do, cause the table kept beating me LOL

 

also had no issues running the table on tz_p4 rom, and no issues with losing the high scores
but i deleted the nvram since i cheated to arrive at said score

 

that would be a pinmame issue anyways, not a table or table author issue

[bun]

Test report at startup--check gumball machine diverter.

[Rajo Joey]

I also play many, many games at this table and never noticed any issue. The table works perfect for me. So don't know, why bigus1 have issues.

[mrjcrane]

Bigus (and other contributores) nice work on this table. I'd like to propose a DOF trigger mod over on DOF Configtool (vpuniverse.com) to activate the shaker motor when the game is in "Battle The Power" mode. It is normally a challenge enough to beat "The Power" but with the PinCab shaking around it would be even more fun. If anyone objects at all, please let me know. Ohh wait on second thought, the rom needs to trigger that DOF call first,, right? I keep forgetting that all of this pincode is not entirely open source. -mrjc.
