It's a new build with all new art and layout.
Thanks to Xenonph, DesAngel and Destruk for their VP8/9 versions
which I used for reference and some resources.

Thanks for this and some of your recent tables that I only had in FSS format or VP9 only.  I love adding these to my VPX cabinet collection.  Good job.

hi how do you set this table to give extra balls for special and score   thanks

I hope this beautiful release puts the kibosh on the critics who say Bigus does nothing but alter lighting and colors on playfields. I have wanted a VPX version of this favorite game for years, and here it is in a glorious state.

Hi. Great game, but I have the digits from the backglass appearing on the playfield, live, rotated 90 degrees.  I tried both backglasses, the D and N version and this effect happens with both. The DMD works fine though. Any suggestions?

[bigus1]

Untick "Enable EM Reels" in your blackglass options

[mikeypin6]

Did it!!! Worked!!! THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks again for a beautiful classic, how do I get the scores off the playfield?

Thanks again for a beautiful classic, how do I get the scores off the playfield?

The answer is 2 posts above your post.

Open table in editor, click Backglass button on left side of editor.

Now on right side you will see section where you can uncheck Enable EMReels.

 

Or you can do it the hard way and script it into table.

First you would open table in editor and click the Table tab at top of editor, and click Collection Manager.

When Collection Manager window pops up, click New button and name your new selection aReels. (As seen in pic)

 

Now click the Backglass tab on left of editor, and you will see the scoring reels.

You need to left click with mouse and drag a box that will include all 32 reels in the box.

(You will know when you have them all when it says EMReel(32) for the name in upper right)

Now right click with mouse on the scoring reels, (This is tricky, as you have to click carefully to keep them all in group), and on menu window select Add/Remove Collection, and now you can select your new selection aReels. (This assigns all of the scoring reels to the aReels collection)

 

Now go into the table script and add this script right after Line 97

 

Dim xx
If Table1.ShowDT = False then
    For each xx in aReels
        xx.Visible = 0
    Next
Else
    For each xx in aReels
        xx.Visible = 1
    Next
End If

 

 

Voila, the hard way to get rid of scoring reels for FS users.

v1.2 of this keeps kicking balls out while a ball is in play.  v1.0 also had this behavior.
