This might be better suited to the 10.8 thread, but i want to be certain it is not just my own setup causing problems before i go posting an issue with the devs. Heres my problem:

When working with my original table, i can work with it, save it , play it, etc with no problems using 10.8 (1347)

IF i try top open the same table with ANY variant(DX64/86 or GL64/86) of RC2 (1934) I can open the table and play it fine, BUT if i save it, and try to start it again, it hangs at the "starting game scripts" and never starts. 

If i try to open the saved table with the older version of 10.8 (1347) it hangs as well.

 

Does anyone know where to start to look for why this is happening? I dont think it is creating any crash logs, because it technically isnt crashing. It just never starts, and goes into not responding, then i have to close it.

The devs changed something in the scripts,too.
There are differences in core.vbs and some others IMHO.
So if you switch between v1347 and ~ v1934, think about to switch/replace the complete scripts folder,also.

im 99% sure when i upgraded to rc2 1934, i replaced all of the scripts. are you saying i should go back to 1347 scripts with rc2?

When you want to use 1347, use the related scripts.
When you want to use 1934, use their related scripts

Normally the scripts were backward compatible, but not for now.

ok, that makes sense, but it doesn't really explain why i am getting the behavior that i am getting. If i use rc2 with its associated scripts, i get still the problem.

Using RC2 the problem of some pup packs not closing (which was corrected in build 1921 and continued with later releases)  has returned.  Anyone else having this issue again?

Can you enable the logs in Preferences / "INI  / Editor / UI Options" and check the vpinball.log? Maybe it has some information on what is going on.

i did that, and it looks like it never gets past "starting script". It never gets to "Prerendering static parts" like it does before i save it. Crazy that it will open and play every time until i save it using rc2, then it doesnt work in any version old or current.

UPDATE: FINALLY, i understand Github, and how to find what i am looking for.... I ended up going to 10.8 Master (1940) and all is working for me again.
