=== Future Pinball-BAM ===
This table REQUIRES the newest FP and BAM Essentials AIO update (3.7). This has the newest BAM 409 which is required! This update will also allow this table to load MUCH faster due to the newest BAM being rebuilt to process BAM stuff much quicker on loading / startup!
For Baller Installer users, you can use the PinUPdater app to update your FP-BAM. Be sure to choose "Future Pinball and BAM Latest" in the drop down menu to get the new FP-BAM updates!
For everyone else...

Guides
I have updated my latest "PinEvent V2 Guide" and "Popper and Baller Installer Tips" with new information regarding PUP v2.0 and the new PUP SSF v2.0 which this table now uses! If you use a second audio device for your SSF, then give the PUP SSF sections a read. (important!)
======================================
=== Pinup Player v2.0 ===
NEW! PUP v2.0 support for Shader Effects, Alpha Videos, PUP SSF 2.0, hardware acceleration
- new pupdmd shader effects that show realtime animated effects for lighting, fire, fog, fireworks, shaking, and more
- new pupdmd fullscreen animated alpha videos that splash on the screen! Full support for alpha blending effects!
- new pup ssf 2.0 sound engine! Positional Ball Rolling sounds now supports up to 10 balls, multiple materials, and each ball changes sound on ramps now!
This table makes use of all these new features of PUP v2.0. If you wish to use "any" pup dmd or pup ssf features you MUST install the latest pup v2.0 update!
For Baller Installer users, you can use the PinUPdater app to update your PuP to the latest v2.0 Beta. Be sure to choose "Pinup Baller v2.0 Beta" in the drop down menu to get the new PUP v2 updates!
For everyone else...
Manual install of PUP:

Update to latest 1.52 beta 3:
https://www.nailbust...nup_upgrade_v15
Pup v2.0 beta files (install AFTER you have a proper working PUP 1.52 install):
https://www.nailbust...php?id=beta2026
If you use SSF with a second audio device, then you require setting your audio device ID for pup v2 (which uses its own settings). Read the included "Install Instructions" (the SSF section) to learn how to properly setup PUP SSF v2.0 for your setup!
======================================
=== NEW Pup-Pack for 2.0 ===
This new table update REQUIRES the use of the updated pup-pack if you want to use pup dmd and pup ssf 2.0 features!
REMOVE any previous pup-pack and only install the new pup-pack (and run the Option xx BAT for your setup). DO NOT mix old and new pup-pack files!
If the incorrect pup-pack is installed (and you have pup features set to true), you will be told on table startup its wrong, and pup features will be disabled!
======================================
=== New 2.0 features in TABLE OPTIONS ===
Take a moment to look at some of the new features in TABLE OPTIONS (at top of the table script), such as:
- ball rolling sound mode options: OFF, FP, SSF
- volume settings for ball rolling / FP Mech Sounds / PUP SSF
- pup dmd v2.0 realtime shader effects and new alpha videos
- Cabinet_Mode_Preset
- Normal Map options
- Attract mode flyby camera sequence (desktop mode only)
- new FP DMD color options
- new VR Room options for Attract mode and Gameplay
- new Mega Room (hanger with enemy jet and f14)
- new Mega / MR (mixed reality) / Minimal choices for VR room
- new Mega Room beacon lighting lights up the entire room
- new Ball settings
- new Lighting settings
- new pre-rendered ray-baked textures lighting and shadows
- new Game Music (Modern, Classic, Afterburner) can also be toggled at anytime with Special 2 key / button
- new PUP DMD Style (Modern, Afterburner) can also be toggled at anytime with Special 2 key / button
- new G.I. Colour Change (changes G.I. lighting colour during table events)
There are MANY settings in TABLE OPTIONS you can change for your preference! Take a look!
======================================
=== Startup Cleanup ===
I completely updated the table's startup code for BAM and PinEvent, which allows BAM proper detection of modes (in VR especially), which allows both BAM and PinEvent to apply settings correctly
======================================
=== Massive Table Optimizations ===
- replaced some FP models with BAM models (faster "processing models")
- replaced textures with proper "power of two" textures (faster "injecting textures")
This has resulted in the table loading MUCH faster (especially with BAM v409)
======================================
There are new TABLE MANUAL and RULES guides included! Give them a look to answer many questions!
