File Name: The Way of the Dragon WITH PUP PACK

File Submitter: Conehead

File Submitted: 08 Feb 2021

File Category: VPX/VPinMAME - MOD Tables

Author(s): Ivantba for original table<br />Conehead for pup pack and slight table modifications
Wiesshund for DMD
Manufacturer: Original
Year: 2020
ROM: Link to ROM
Permission to MOD?: Yes, with approval

Version 2.0
 
Just in time for the Easter weekend!  There are several changes in this version of the pup pack that it warrants an entire new release number.  This version contains several improvements and is more in line with what I originally wanted to release, which includes:
 
* A DMD!  You'll see that the DMD is an integral part of the table as it displays several iconic Bruce Lee phrases.
* A frame around the videos other than just a rectangle like in V1.0.
* Cleaned up and better quality videos.
* An objective.  If you hit one of two specific drop down targets, and then the other one right after, you'll be rewarded with an iconic scene from the back alley fight where the Dragon whips his tail!
* An attract video which shows some of Bruce Lee's best action scenes.
 
Again, thanks to Ivantba for creating the original table and especially to Wiesshund for making the DMD possible!
 
Standard pup pack installation:
 
Install .vpx table and Dragon.UltraDMD directory in Visual Pinball/Tables directory
Install sinbadn folder in PinUPSystem/PUPVideos directory
Requires you to install the sinbadn rom (not included with this download)
 
Enjoy!
 
Version 1.0
 
I'm a big Bruce Lee fan, so I couldn't let this table go without a pup pack!  I've only been part of the community for a little over 6 months and this is my FIRST pup pack, so I don't mind any suggestions/criticisms that may come my way.  Note that it's a fairly straightforward table so it is admittedly a very SIMPLE pup pack, so if anyone has more ideas and experience I would welcome any improvements.  As it stands, the pup pack consists of:
 
1. A video plays when you pull the plunger back, a "Ready to fight" video.
2. A video plays when you let the plunger go, a "Starting the fight" video.
3. The rest of the videos play when you go through the gate, hit the drop targets, and drain the ball.
4. There are 35 videos total, with the majority from the movie The Way of the Dragon.
5. It only had scoring on the backglass so there is a simple DMD, but it will be on the 3rd monitor.  So this game is best played on a 3-screen system.
 
You MUST download and replace your version of The Way of the Dragon table because I had to modify some of the code to trigger the videos.  Other than that, everything else is unchanged.
 
BIG THANKS to:
1. Ivantba, for creating the table and giving me permission to modify it and create a pup pack for it.
2. Wiesshund, for his constant advice, guidance, and help in any issues I run into, and for answering my endless stupid questions.  And for creating the scoreboard in the game.
3. Redwings13, for testing it prior to release.
And of course to Nailbuster, for creating the pup pack system and TerryRed for his tutorial videos.
 
ENJOY!

The table uses FlexDMD

This is a great upgrade to the original table.  I am having a issue where freezy virtual dmd has to be enabled for the flexdmd to be displayed.  The issue I am having is that the score from flexdmd and freezy are batteing each outer.

Thank you so much. I love PupPacks.

Hit F1 and turn OFF external DLL and show DMD in vpinmame
You do not need them to be on

Does this work with 10.6?   I get a VBScript error (something about collections, I'll post exact error next time I try it). Original tables works fine, but loading the pup version throws the error.

A 10.7 table on 10.6  wouldn't give you a script error, the table would simply be many shades of white

But you would still be able to actually play it, it would just be the Kubrick version

[njk70]

Ah right, of course. Well then I'm a bit stuck on the cause. I'll redownload it, maybe i fiddled with something.

[Redwings13]

Can’t get the flexdmd to work on this table.

and table doesn’t start either.

Well one problem is your VPX is out of date

you need to get the 10.6.1 update zip and unzip it over the top of your existing install

 

and make sure you do not have any scripts in any folder but the scripts folder

[Redwings13]

I saw 10.6.2

should I do that one?

[wiesshund]

Yes, you could update right to 10.6.2

[Redwings13]

Sorry about the delay.

table still won’t start, but seems like it wants to.

backglass video comes up and plays, has sound too.

Has same error as before.

and no flexdmd
