Hi,

it seems that the captive ball swith is never registered in VPX with the CAPCOM Kingpin ROM : the captive ball (sw32) no longer work at all.

I've made a test by importing in VPX the only VP8 Kingpin table and this  time, the switch register so something is different with the way this spcific switch is handle in code I guess which is no longer working.

I've tried with all 3 KINGPIN tables available for VPX and they have all the same issue and all the VPX versions as well.

 

the ROM used is either kpv106 or kpb105.

 

Is there a way to "force" this switch to work or how I could get support for this?

 

edit:

I also tried to replace the swithc 32 by the swith 49 (left gun, both standup targets) in script and then I still got the SW32 not registering in its new location:

 

Sub sw32_Hit  : vpmTimer.PulseSw 49:sw32.TimerEnabled = 1:sw32p.TransX = -4: playsound SoundFX("target",DOFContactors): End Sub 'captive ball
Sub sw32_Timer:Me.TimerEnabled = 0:sw32p.TransX = 0:End Sub

Sub sw49_Hit  : vpmTimer.PulseSw 49:sw49.TimerEnabled = 1:sw49p.TransX = -4: playsound SoundFX("target",DOFContactors): End Sub
Sub sw49_Timer:Me.TimerEnabled = 0:sw49p.TransX = 0:End Sub

 

 

note: without this switch, it's impossible to acheive the wizard mode and finish the game

 

thanks for any help

Maybe it's just a typo, look in the scripts for the sw32_Hit subroutine, and try changing the switch's pulse id number, 32 instead of 49.

vpmTimer.PulseSw 32

thanks for your reply.

My bad I forgot to mention that I did this test already, I just modified my first post.

This proves that there is something strange with the switch 32 sw32

 

32 and 49 are both the same stand up target switch  type also

I just swapped it and it's seems correct now. Thanks Guys   I found other typos in the same block and can't believe I still missed that one! I post the update now.

Cheers

New 2.1 update shortly

[noitbe11]

oh yes it was your Kingpin table indeed, thanks a lot for it, it's an amazing table.

 

If you have tested and this works, its great!!

 

I wonder why the other 2 Kingpin tables got the same issue thought, code reused ? strange:

ICPjuggla   Kingpin, Capcom, 1996, ICPjuggla and 2 more...
SG1bsoN   Kingpin, Capcom, Mod

 

I can't wait for the 2.1 and thanks so much for this !

[noitbe11]

I just tested the 2.1, it's now WORKING !!

 

thanks so much again Bigus1 !
