Hi, wiesshund. I have tried and there is a problem with the captive balls. Their targets make the ball restart and move on to the next ball or end the game.

need more detail as i cant replicate and no one else has reported it

[pedator]

VP 10.8.0 Beta (Rev 1347) 32bit.

Deleted nvram

When target of captive is touched, sounds the music of lost ball, then run the new ball cycle (if ball is still in playfield no new ball is created)

[wiesshund]

quite an old version of 10.8, though should not matter as the ROM controls what goes on

not the table

What VPM version?

[pedator]

even more old 3.4 10 Jul 21

the vp9 version works as should

[wiesshund]

Only thing i can think is outdate vpinmame or you have a bad ROM dump

 

I even used manual ball control to smack the hell out of the captives
no issue at all

I am using vpm 3.6

 

and this ROM
https://drive.google...?usp=drive_link

what i have in total is

vpx 10.8.0 rev 1804 (i am a little behind)

vpm VPinMAME-sc-3.6-657-4185c27
b2s server B2SServer-2.1.1-b366324

 

i suspect your issue is either vpm or the ROM

[pedator]

Tested with your rom (same as mine, same CRC) and updated to VPM 3.6.573. The mistery continues xD i will show a video if youtube stops annoying me trying to upload

Perfect now. Fixed! Thanks wiesshund.   It was a shame that this very popular table didn't work as well as it does now in vpx10.8

Didn't work as well when?

 

I am guessing that the vp8 and vp9 versions worked ok?
I never actually played them, just did this because someone asked if i though i could redo it for VPX

 

Unfortunately the graphics are best i could do with the VP9 ones and a tiny bit of touch up
