Hello. 

 

I am learning about building pup-packs., so i want to build my first.., and i am wondering if there will be a problem.. trying to make this one:

 

Scarface - Balls and Power - VPForums.org - Page 3

 

Thanks Papa Pitufo and Goldchicco and creators of this table..

 

So..the table it´s not allowed to be modded.. so i don´t want to create problems with my "work".

 

First, i was trying to solve the music problem in this table, (only sounds the flippers etc.. , no music in the table, and the music download link seems to be broken, during  the years..)

 

So..I see in the script this part:

 

 

'************************

' Play Musics MP3 version

'************************

 

Dim SongPlaying

 

Sub PlaySong(sng)

    If MusicOn Then

        If SongPlaying <> sng Then

            PlayMusic sng

            SongPlaying = sng

        End If

    End If

End Sub

 

Sub table1_MusicEnded 'repeats the same song again

    SongPlaying = ""

    PlayTheme

End Sub

 

Sub StopSong 'stop current song

    SongPlaying = ""

    EndMusic

End Sub

 

Sub PlayTheme 'select a song depending of the mode

    If SideEventStarted Then

        Select Case SideEventNr

            Case 1:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_SEHU.mp3"

            Case 2:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_SEH.mp3"

            Case 3:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_MB.mp3"

            Case 4:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_SEY.mp3"

            Case 5:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_SEHU.mp3"

        End Select

 

        Exit Sub

    End If

 

    If EventStarted Then

        Select Case EventStarted

            Case 1:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_ME1.mp3"

            Case 2:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_ME2.mp3"

            Case 3:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_ME3.mp3"

            Case 4:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_ME4.mp3"

            Case 5:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_ME5.mp3"

            Case 6:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_ME6.mp3"

            Case 7:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_ME7.mp3"

            Case 8:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_ME8.mp3"

            Case 9:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_ME9.mp3"

            Case 10:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_ME10.mp3"

            Case 11:PlaySong "bgout_scarface_ME11.mp3"

        End Select

    Else

        PlaySong "bgout_scarface_NOE.mp3"

    End If

 

End Sub

 

 

(Almost..the full part for the music stuff..guys, hehe..)

Ok,,so..i have downloaded the full bso and i have replaced the names with this ones, and put them in the "C:\Vpinball\Music" folder.

 

So you don´t see in the script (its down lines..) but i was careful about choosing the  bgout_scarface_ME1.mp3 song

 

 

because this will be the song playing repeatidly when you play the table

 

The music problem now it´s solved because you can run the table.    (You can download the music folder here  Music - Google Drive )

 

 

It´s not perfect.ok...but it´s a solution..

 

 

My problem.. and it´s all about this post...it´s building the pup-pack...it´s my first one..

 

I see some triggers for building the puppack like E-132 for initiate the table or using the Pupcapture program.

 

 

I have some clips from the movie, i am using "davinci resolve" for create the clips, and i am playing the table trying to figure it out all this kind of things

 

In the script table i see this part:

 

 

Say Something stupid test

'*************************

' for example Say "Bring_it_to_me_cockroach", 313211131111

' the higher the number the longer the pause: 1 short delay, 9 long delay

' first number is always with the mouth close,

 

Sub SaySomethingStupid

    Dim currentsay

    currentsay = INT(81 * RND(1) )

    Select Case currentsay

        Case 0:Say "Boyfriend_fuck_him", "191589159218121813":If B2SOn Then Controller.B2SStartAnimation("Tony")

        Case 1:Say "Bring_it_to_me_cockroach", "1622111115121":If B2SOn Then Controller.B2SStartAnimation("Tony")

        Case 2:Say "Bring_my_car_dont_fuck_around", "179517972636663925":If B2SOn Then Controller.B2SStartAnimation("Tony")

        Case 3:Say "Cmon_bring_your_army", "13144814":If B2SOn Then Controller.B2SStartAnimation("Tony")

 

 

No idea how could i try to pass this test...or if there´s any of this files  , i think not.. (are compiled in the table?? maybe...)

 

I see this table have got 11 modes (11 game modes) and one easter egg (shooting 100 targets in certain time).

 

So the principal idea it´s simple, i am trying to make a better solution for the music (now it´s only solved but i don´t like the same song on and on heheh) and 12 video clips for the game-modes, other videos for starting the table or tilt  warning, ball lost, attract mode , etc..)

 

Guys.any kind of help will be nice..

 

Ok i will tell you my advances

Goodbye amigo.

Ok second day..

 

It`s going well, i have several videos for ball saved and other stuff...

 

Now i am editing and adding more videos, inserting words and this kind of stuff..

 

I have downloaded the correct version for the BSO for the table, i have seen youtube video from the table working correctly and the music it`s important to resolve. i will improve this section.

 

I can put all the files in gdrive if someone wants to help...please feel free to add friends in your life

You will not have any issues if you get permission from the author(s).

Ok..i am in the way..but i need help guys.

 

I have used Davinci Resolve for editing and creating the video-clips and put all the words and phrases on the screen, the program works really well when you know what are ayou doing..

 

So I am creating a good pup-pack, because the movie and the table diserve it..the pup-pack will be 900 mbs..

 

I have found the sounds i have asked in the first post...it`s everything in the sound manager (more than 200 sounds and tonys phrases!!) are compiled in the table.

 

The rest of the sounds are songs from the movie and are forbbidden.. i will share a folder (c:\vpinball\music) for you can execute the table and enjoy the wonderful music from this movie (but this it`s problematic...i don´t know how many time i could do this)

 

The ball control it`s simple (thanks JP) press D and click ball control and then move the ball with the mouse...

 

 

So i have made the video-clips and the music folder...but i have problems building the pup-pack..

 

Pup-capture it`s working for me and i have made different captures from the b2sDMD.

Then i put the triggers for this captures in the pupeditor but nothing works..

 

the pup-pack it´s working correctly with the E-132 trigger

When the table starts...suddely a randomize video appears (now i have 4 different videos for the attract).

 

But D1,D2,D3 it`s not working in the table

In the pupeditor D1,D2,D3 works perfect..

 

I don´t know if there`s somebody could help me..

i can share the pup-pack (its not finished)

https://drive.google...-Qq?usp=sharing

[Junkyerd]

Ups i have found a better way to record the pupcapture..

 

I don´t know why before only recorded half sized dmd...mow it`s working..

SCARFACE PUP-PACK soon

[Junkyerd]

The pup works well in the pup-pack editor.

Pressing D1, D2, etc.. or E132, the videos are displaying correctly.

 

But in the table it´s impossible to get it working..

I have got a pupcapture...i get it from pupcapture program

And put it in PupCapture folder (also tried in PupAutoCapture folder) in PINUPSYSTEM/PUPVIDEOS/SCARFACE and in PINUPSYSTEM/PUPCAPTURE.

 

no way te get it working i think ità impossible in this table to recognise de dmd or i don`t know..

 

I feel to quit 

 

If somebody could help i will be so grateful

[Junkyerd]

way out from pupcapture..no solution for me and this table.

 

Now i am usin some triggers and i have achieved getting working the launch ball, ball saved and attract mode it`s working perfect now.

 

E132 for starting one of the 4 different videos for ATTRACT 

E108 for sttoping attract videos and start the one of the 20 different videos from LAUNCHBALL

E123 starts one video from BALL SAVED

E124 stops video from BALL SAVED..

 

i am trying to get working the game over, but i don´t find a way

[Junkyerd]

ok let me share the pup-pack at this point..

 

I am looking to get it working the game over videos (or pupcapture for the game-modes) but it`s impossible for me by now...

I have got working correctly attract mode,launch ball and ball saved

Oh and the music..it`s perfect (but not the original from the table) now it`s solved (put the folder music in c:\vpinball\music)

 

https://drive.google...gnU?usp=sharing

 

I will be very gratefull if somebody could help me...good pinball for everybody, cheers!

[Junkyerd]

Oki doki

I have found correct info this time

https://www.nailbust...?id=pup_capture

 

This it`s working for me now for game over videos:

 

 

'*****

'Drain

'*****

 

Sub Drain_Hit

    

    Drain.DestroyBall

    pupevent 301

    BallsOnPlayfield = BallsOnPlayfield -1

    PlaySoundat "fx_drain", drain

    LastSwitchHit = "drain"

 

 

drain it`s the kicker for ball drained in game over, so it´s perfect for me.. i can continue learning

 

Then i put E301 in triggers and its`working

 

I have game over, launch ball and ball saved and the attract video for the begining.

But now it´s more fun discover and improving

But my technical level today it`s not able to resolve this problems..

Hoping to find someone can help me or maybe i can solve (maybe one or two years hehe)
