Medusa VP9 1.1



Version: 1.1.0
Category: VPinMAME 9.x Recreations

Author(s): jpsalas

Description:
Based on the table by Bally from 1981
Another oldie for you

First I should like to thank studmuff and akiles for the pictures they sent me. The playfield is based on the flyer, so many of the images are still from the flyer.

Update 1.1
- Fixed typo in text light
- Changed nudge system to one used before. Using two keys, on for the light nudge and one for a stronger nudge. When the "analog" nudge is fully debugged and tested then I'll add it to my tables.

I just checked and the credit display is working fine for me.

[serpiko]

Wow! This table is gorgeous!
I initially thought that the new system of tilt was a bug because I did not read the fact that commentary.It failed to start at the beginning but it's terrible!

x1000 thanks

ps: your logo on the ball is very beautiful

[jpsalas]

Yes, I put the logo on the ball I think it was nice, but easy to change if you don't like it

About the match feature not displaying: press F6 and set the options you want. Remember to Press F3 to restart the rom.

Yes, Strangeleo, this one was for you

JP

[RealApprentice]

LoL as it played well right away never bothered to press F6 and F3. But now all is displayed.

Thx again

btw interesting table to play

Wow! what a nice recreation, considering it was made mostly from a flyer! A little bit easy, but I love the strong gravity setting 1.6674 and the strong flippers too, combined with the low table slope (4.5 min/max) this plays great! Amazing job JP!!!


Best Regards,
Todd.

I love this table, it's right up my alley. I'll be playing it a lot. Thanks JP!

A little feedback on the new nudging system (and it may be that I'm just not used to it yet): if it's less than a full nudge, there's no nudge until you take your finger off the nudge key. I'm used to immediate reaction - that fraction of second can sometimes make a difference.

[vic viper]

Thanks again JP

[jpsalas]

Yes, the nudge system isn't 100%, just take it like a test. See how it works, if it is useful or not. I think there is a bug, and sometimes the nudge looks like it is made by Hercules . But I preferred to put the system in a real table so it can be tested better. There is another thread about the nudging, so I guess between all involved something better will come out

JP.

Why you do this to me JP? Im just starting to break free from my addiction to Lost World and you slap me with another great early 80s Bally table.Ill say thanx but mt wife says that she hates you.

[highrise]

hey guys

I'll take a look at what JP has done with the nudging - basically it should only really trigger on the up key when you do a light nudge, a heavier one should kick in automatically. It needs a bit of tweaking I think, but it's hard to do something like this because a keyboard is essentially digital. To use the system you should basically 'flick' the keyboard, soft or hard, and see what that does.

Better & better & better & better & better.........................I just hope you never stop!

Thank you very much!

[humid]

Thanks for another great trip into the 80's J.P. Tables with intricate artwork always keep me coming back, nice results from using a flyer.

[janux]

Wow!... thanks for this great release Jp! I love everything about it!

about the nudge system... i'm not quite confortable with the fact that it is not instant... 15ms seems nothing but, when comes to hard nudge it makes a difference... i've tried getting NudgeCount up to 10 (lines 234, 241) and works fine for me (I'd still rather 2 keys if I wanted diff. forces).... nevertheless this is completely off-topic, and is nothing, nothing compared to the amazing work you have done.

Your tables are, definitely, the School of VP!
Thanks again.

[Itchigo]

Wonderful! Especially from a flyer! As I told JP in an earlier conversation, I show his tables to friends as if unveiling a painting. Over here's the Monet, here's the Rembrant, here's the Picasso, and here's the JP's!
