Quite unexpected. Thought you had completed the Brazilian machines, but, I guess it was only Taito ?

 

Never the less, much appreciated - thank you Juan, Halen, Carlos and Michael !

Yes, all the Taito should be done, but there are a few LTD tables missing. I think I have just two LTD left, but I may be wrong The first one Black Hole (the rom seems to be working but without sounds, although it needs a lot of work to find all the ID's for the lights and switches), and the second one is Space Poker (without the rom, as it seems to be missing)

I may be mistaken, but wasnt black hole already made? I have a Brazilian version on my cab Im sure of it. Regardless, I have been long looking forward to this table being released, cant wait to play this weekend!

Another great table in the JP Salas Collection! I have noticed something, though. The right pop bumper makes no sound. It scores, but no sound.

 

Otherwise, it's a fun table to play, and it'll be added to my VPin cabinet. Thank you again, Papa Smurf!

I have just updated all the Jp's table
and already there is something new again
The table looks good as always and I will set it up right away

Thanks to:

I see the problem with bumper3, just a rename error in the editor. Still it is called bumper001. Maybe I should just be "friends" with VPX and accept that I can't have names like light1, light2, or bumper1, bumper2, or gate1, gate2, but only light001, light002, bumper001, bumper002, or gate001, gate002... If I accept that then no more copy/paste errors

 

I'll make an update, in an hour or so

Dear JP, thank you for this nice recreation and thanks to all involved. One request, please change the coin-in function from "4" to "5", I cannot see in the script where to do this by myself... thanks in advance!

The coin is working with the leys 3, 4 and 5. But rom only accepts 3 credits 

UPDATE

 

1.0.1 Updated same day

- Fixed a script copy/paste bug, now bumper3 will work again

 

As I said in the thread, this was just a typo, which I thought it was fixed But I guess it is time for me to accept the 001 rename thing, although I still prefer to call the objects thing1, thing2....

Like people say: "if you can fight them, join them"

 

Well, actually the script was fine, but in the editor Bumper3 as still Bumper001, after a copy/paste, and I though that I renamed that to Bumper3, but I guess it didn't got renamed after all No problem, easy fix

I have noticed if you rename an object in editor, and click a different object, then go back to object you renamed, it has the old name.

So after renaming, just click something in editor below the name, like image used or something, and then the rename stays.

 

Thanks for this treasure!

I used to click on the table itself after renaming an object, and it used to work 99% of the time I'll try clicking on another property as you said. Thanks

Would also like this info if possible. 5 is currently not adding a coin on my machine so I can not play.

 

Thanks!

Thanks JP for another gem!!! @Mustang1961 and Gunner. I remember having dealt with this issue a while ago. Should be an easy fix...change the VPMKeys.vbs in the scriptsfolder of VP. Open the file with Notepad ++. Change what ever you have to these to get it working pressing a 5. Works here anyway!! Be aware...if everything does work, if you update to a newer version op VP the scriptsfolder is overwritten with newer/updated files. VPMKeys.vbs also.                 

In my case line 84 thru 87:

 

Const keyInsertCoin1     = 6   '(3)        Insert coin in slot 1
Const keyInsertCoin2     = 5   '(4)        Insert coin in slot 2
Const keyInsertCoin3     = 6   '(5)        Insert coin in slot 3
Const keyInsertCoin4     = 7   '(6)        Insert coin in slot 4

Great job JP as always !!! Thank you for this table !!!

One small remark: DOF not completely working - slingshots work wihout it.

[jpsalas]

I have no problems adding a coin with the keys 3, 4 or 5. They all work. Are you sure you are using the latest LTD3.vbs? There should be no need to change VPMKeys.vbs.

When you update VPX, you should update the scripts too. I see a lot of people having trouble with updating VPX when they only copy the exe file and ignore the rest, like the script or the dll files.

 

And about the DOF, as it is a rom based table I guess someone should update the config for this rom.

Dear JP,

this sounds plausible, please offer the LTD3.vbs as download here in the thread.

 

I thank you in advance, my best regards, Christian.
