many thanks

Yes, it is a nice table to be your first. I see a lot of Loserman in your table

 

And there is a big gap between the flippers I have played a few rounds and I managed to hit the ball just a few times  

[Friel01]

I have to say the real table had a frustratingly large flipper gap too.  Lots of balls I never got to put a flipper to, . But as I said, I have seen photos of a bounce back post which would definitely help that out.

 

I am glad you all seem to like it, I was quite nervous giving my first over to the group.

Dear Friel01,

 

thank you for this innocent EM. One request: could you please supplement a Ball in play indication?

 

Sincerely Christian.

I will have a go at it this weekend.  I will likely put them on the backglass though, as you can see my apron is rather short because the playfield is so long.

.. is another Option, of course.

 

But think about it, then it is not like the real Machine.

[Friel01]

Stat, you are right… let me give it some thought

[djredick]

There is an issue with the scores not matching up between the B2S and the DT reels.  The DT reels show a score much higher than the B2S, and when the game is over, the score on the B2S is the

correct one.

 

Astronaut also has the same issue.

 

Tried with both VPX 10.7.2 and 10.7.3.
