Need help with Tilt.
I had changed the cores.vbs to a lower tilt number "Sensitivity" to help w/my cab. It tilts too easy and I've already done what I can for these settings.
The new cores.vbs doesn't have the same script so I'm left with how do I, at least, lower the tilt for certain tables and, what I'd prefer, how do I remove the ability for the table to tilt at all?
Please no flaming as I know many do not approve of turning off tilt but I have my reasons.
To turn off the tilt for a table, do I only need to comment this line vpmNudge.TiltSwitch?

You can change the analog tilt sensitivity in vpx prefs dof/nudge


If you feel the need to empty your wallet in my direction, i don't have any way to receive it anyways

I don't use VPX's nudge settings since they don't work properly for my cab.  Believe me, I've tried.

I'm forced to use J2K for nudge.

So those settings don't do anything for me.

you can adjust the tilt sensitivity
you can also adjust the vp9 keyboard non realistic nudge strength

 

what it your cab using for the nudge mechanism?

i have an accelerometer inside. It's an Atgames Legend Pinball.

I don't want to use the button nudges and it took me hours and hours of trial and error with input from others and the only way my cab will let me nudge using the cab itself is w/joy2key configured for it.

well, technically, you are using button nudges, through joy2key

So the button settings should at least let you tone it down?

No. In J2K there's settings that use the x/y axis just like in VPX.

I'm not using the buttons.

I'm convinced my accelerometer isn't 'correct' as I have to set the sensitivity very high (meaning low sensitivity) otherwise it tilts when a ball loads.

When looking at the axis in windows one setting flickers WAY outside the center and that's what's causing this so I have to set a very high-wide dead-zone to keep from it tilting all the time -but that means it doesn't nudge much but that also means some tables tilt very easy.

Thus I need to turn off tilts for some tables.

I know on some I can lower the sensitivity but for some setting it at 0 still doesn't work. So for those, I need to know how to turn 'off' the ability for the table to tilt.

I have a similar issue... my accelerometer is too sensitive and even after calibration and the physics on my table crazy. I would rather just turn it right down so it doesn't effect the physics on the tables and play with out the nudge feature.

Help please.
