LUT mode was entered, at various levels F12.
Can be played by version 10.80.
RollingTimer system activated, where the ball sounds as it runs across the playing field.
I thank Mr. Jp Salas for his help (playfield_mesh).
Added playfield_mesh for table texture.
I also thank beowulf99 for the parts and pieces that allowed me to create a new version.

I'm encountering a small(ish) problem when I play this board in Cabinet mode. Player 1 scores in the Player 2 position, Player 2's scores don't appear on the backglass at all (but it is counted according to the high score widget), Player 3 and Player 4 scores are scored in their proper positions. I've tried changing the backglass to a different version in case there was something wrong with the original backglass I downloaded, but the problem persists.

 

There is also a "light" that appears on the playfield near the left flipper that is associated with the "number of players" lights on the backglass if it was still in desktop mode. It's a little distracting, but the scoring is the more important issue here.

 

Thanks for making a fun (if a little challenging) board!

Same here!

The backglass issue is the same for both versions found here on VPF.  The player 2 scoring reel was mistakenly identified in the B2S as player 1 and just needs to be changed in the B2S editor to reflect this.  Will fix both players.
The light issue and another 1 not mentioned can be fixed by adding cp1, cp2, cp3 and pl3 to the aReels collection.

Oh... all right then. I didn't expect both backglasses here to have the same error in them. Thanks for the heads-up!

 

Now to see how this B2S editor works...

Technically you can open the B2S in a text editor and fix it.  Find line 32 and change the duplicate player 1 to player 2.

EXCELLENT! Thank you! That worked like a treat. My scores are in the right places now.

Do you know why the new version of this table was deleted?

No, but I hope it wasn't because of me.
