The lit hole gives 1 million, here it is the script I wrote. I wanted to give 500.000 first and after a second the other 500.000, so you can hear it tak tak tak tak tak then a small delay and 5 more tak tak tak tak tak:

 

    Addscore 500000

    If Light017.State Then vpmTimer.AddTimer 1000, "AddScore 500000 '"

 

About the rules: I followed the rules explained in this video:

 

Gottlieb's Pinball Woodrails Ace High 1957 (youtube.com)

 

I also based the rules as explained on the apron:

Thanks, JP  for this very old table, older than me, too !

 

Which version of VPX8 are you talking about ?

 

Is it the one in the VP10.8 beta thread (VPinballX-10.8.0-1138-fff5f9d-Release-win-x86), or a more recent one on GitHub ?

Just use the beta 8 for now:

I played this table and noticed the bumper lights stay on from game to game, where I think they are supposed to reset at a new game.

Thank you for the great recreation as always.

[jpsalas]

UPDATE

 

1.0.1 Updated 21.01,2024

- Fixed the holes triggers which could trigger the hit when the ball passed over them.

- Fixed the Bumper lights not resetting on a new game.

 

Just two small bug fixes.

JP, just a heads up that if you do any tables like this one that PBecker has done, grab the vp9 to get all of the timings/rules. Phil bought the schematics for each table he did so his timings are perfect. Phil was a NASA engineer in the 70's so he was a perfectionist when doing these. I'm not saying yours are wrong, just that it can be a resource for you.

[digitalarts]

and so many thanks to you Tim for combining Phil's tables with a cabinet b2s !
