Hi,

 

Either I'm becoming deaf or the acceleration of a ball is not audible.

I can only hear a ball rolling at a constant speed.

 

I'm wondering if such sound file of an accelerating/decelerating ball exists and if it's difficult to implement.

depends entirely on how the table author coded the rolling sound on the table

ask the specific table author how they implemented it

Whatever the VPX table I'm running, there is no acceleration/deceleration sound for the balls.

not sure what to say, cause you keep having weird issues with tables no one else has those issues

you may need to revisit you vpx installation

Many authors change a Vol function because some sounds are too low, and the result is a too loud rolling sound. All my tables should sound fine :)

It is not issue related.
It's only a missing feature : specific sounds or sound FXs.

it isnt a missing feature

 

if author changes ballpitch on velocity then ball will speed up

 

All of JP's tables factor in ball velocity, all his tables change pitch if i move the ball really fast

 

Rolling sounds are not a "feature" of VPX
they are a "FUNCTION" of the script author
