I asked the question in the forum as I had another issue with another game...however still having a problem with Barracora - player one is lit on player 3 and player two is lit on player 4 and player 3 is lit on player one and player 4 is lit on player 2.

A suggestion was to swap player 2 and player 3's segment numbers and that would correct it; however I don't see anywhere in the script player #'s, and all of the lights/lamps looked as though they are correct. Some assistance please as to where I can fix this little error. Thanks.

Someone else also answered and stated it:

This is a UVP issue.

So you'll want to let them know in this thread - http://www.vpforums....?showtopic=5299

Visual PinMAME, and the spanned table have the displays correct, so I don't know why they don't check these things before uploading.

Thanks for the help.

Tested it this evening & I don't seem to have any issue with the displays not being in place ..

DGrein - maybe download the UVP again and see if the problem still exists with the file? It may have been updated a while ago and your copy of the UVP could be an older version.

Okay, if this sounds like I dumb question I'm sorry. I've downloaded it to my flash drive and I'm seeing two files in the zip folder...:

UVP Barracora.png
UVP Barracora.uvp

When I upload them to the cabinet where do I put the zipped file? Typically I download the table (put the table in the shortcuts to tables), media packs (open up to hyperpin and put the hyperpin in my shortcuts to C:/hyperpin) and the roms (and put that to my shortcuts to roms). I've never done any other way....so do I copy the zipped file containing the two above files to the shortcut to C:/hyperpin where I normally put the hyperpin file?

Okay I did all of the above - and assumed I put it into the Hyperpin/Ultra VP folder (once I went to the cabinet and looked for the files) and also put the .png into the backglass images folder (and removed the original ones to the recycle bin) when I did this the backglass disappeared when I went to play the game. It appears it's because they game is looing for Barracora (Williams 1981) as those where the files I deleted to the recycle bin. I restored the Barracora (Williams 1981) .png and .uvp and the backglass doesn't disappear and again I still have the Player one appearing in player 3 etc.

Barracora is looking for all files to be Barracora (Williams 1981) as this is what the table is named and all other files. I guess I will need to just deal with the fact the scores are in the wrong places, as I still have the backglass when I go to play the game. (now I'm believe this is my problem with my Gorgar problem is - as the backglass disappears upon play).

Unless there is another table with UVP as the beginning I don't believe this is going to work on the cabinet....unless I can rename the files.

Thanks for the help....yes once I renamed the files to Barracora (Williams 1981) from the UVP Barracora....it's functioning the way it should. Many thanks for the help to the newbie!!!

And the score displays show up in the correct places now for you too on Barracora right?
Flying Dutchman deserves your thanks - he doesn't get enough appreciation for all his work on these backglasses.

Yes, many many thanks to Flying Dutchman for all of your hard work on the backglasses....without your work we wouldn't have the wonderful animated games.
