etherealmusic478 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Hi! I don't why, but for some reason It seems I can only play POTC, Iron Man, Playboy and Austin Powers from the new SAM tables. When I try to launch Tron, Spiderman, X-Men and Avatar I get all sorts of Active X and Pinmame could not be found errors. And after that the table script opens up and indicates a text in red which you can see on the file I attached here. I've basicly tried everything, but I just can't see why I can play SOME of the SAM tables and not all of them!. It's not a rom issue, because when I test the roms in the pinmame setup program they work perfectly fine!. Here's what I've done so far to make all the tables work:. 1.Have put the SAM.vbs script in my tables folder AND in my script folder (just in case) 2.Have installed the latest Visual Pinball build which is 9.2.1 3.Have replaced my older Vpinmame version with the 1.3 version found on this site. 4.Have clicked on "setup" in my Visual Pinball folder and made sure the roms work by testing them. Also, they are all renamed correctly (obviously). 5.I used the latest "VPinballv921.exe" which is hosted on this site. All my other tables work perfectly fine except that handful of Stern SAM tables mentioned before. All that said, if anybody out there have the slightest idea why some tables work and some don't, don't hesitate to help me out!. I need help badly as I've tried to get the other SAM tables to work for days now without luck. Help! Help! Help! lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Dazz Posted April 14, 2014 Administrators Share Posted April 14, 2014 By default these tables are setup to use B2S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etherealmusic478 Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 B2S? Has to do with bakdrops, right? Anyway, does this mean it's not possible to load up and play these tables? How did everybody else, including you, get these tables to work? What's your setup like? Perhaps you could post a screenshot or a step-by-step guide how you made them work? Thanks in advance!

etherealmusic478 Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 I see that the issue relies in the script, it's got something to do with the "Controller" for VPinmame from what I can tell. That said, is there anything I can do in the script perhaps to make the tables load up? As a side note, I'm trying to get these tables to work on a single monitor.

Content Provider Rascal Posted April 15, 2014 Content Provider Share Posted April 15, 2014 Find the line in script that looks like this, Set Controller = CreateObject("B2S.Server"), and change it to this Set Controller = CreateObject("VPinMAME.Controller").

etherealmusic478 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Yes YES!! That did the trick!! It worked when I deleted the line "Set Controller = CreateObject("B2S.Server")" and replaced that line with Set Controller = CreateObject("VPinMAME.Controller"). Yihaaa! I cannot than you enough!!! All I can say is thank YOU so very much for the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etherealmusic478 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 One more thing though, I'm basicly having the same issue with the X-Men table. And I did find the Pinmame controller thingy in the script, but not sure what to add/delete here though. Look at my screen shot and let me know what to do. My rom is right, I surely only need to do something similar in the script for X-Men...am I right? Thanks again!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etherealmusic478 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 One more error came up in the script when I tried to load up the "X-Men" table. Look at the red line in the screenshot. What seems to be the problem here? What do I have to add/edit here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Dazz Posted April 15, 2014 Administrators Share Posted April 15, 2014 Are you running a real plunger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to do the same thing with the Set Controller =, only in this case it is already there. The ' character comments out a line (line turns green when commented out), so remove the ' from the one line and add a ' to the other line. Commenting out a line mean the program will jump past that line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider 85vett Posted April 23, 2014 Content Provider Share Posted April 23, 2014 On line 10 delete the " ' ". On line 11 add a " ' " to the front of the line. This will comment out the B2S and run the VPinMAME.Controller. Basically what Rascal said but wanted to make sure you got it working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJRobX Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 It looks like you have a plunger based on that error. Replace these two functions to get it to work correctly: Sub PBWPlunger_Timer() If Plunger.MotionDevice> 0 and PTime.Enabled=0 and PTime2.Enabled=0 Then 'If Plunger.Position>24 then exit sub Plungers(POldPos).alpha = 0:Plungers(POldPos).alpha = 0 PNewPos = Plunger.Position \ 2 Plungers(PNewPos).alpha = 1:Plungers(PNewPos).alpha = 1 'change to the width of the ramps PRefresh.State = ABS(PRefresh.state -1) POldPos = PNewPos End If End Sub and.. (There is acutely only one line that needs to be changed, see the <--- comment) Sub PTime2_Timer 'release timer Plungers(POldPos).alpha = 0:Plungers(POldPos).alpha = 0 Plungers(PNewPos).alpha = 1:Plungers(PNewPos).alpha = 1 'change to the width of the ramps PRefresh.State = ABS(PRefresh.state -1) POldPos = PNewPos PNewPos = PNewPos + 1 If PNewPos> 2 Then Me.Enabled = 0 Plungers(2).alpha = 0:Plungers(2).alpha = 0 Plungers(0).alpha = 1:Plungers(0).alpha = 1 'change to the width of the ramps POldPos = 0 ' <--- update POldPos to reflect the current position of the plunger. PRefresh.State = ABS(PRefresh.state -1) End If End Sub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNT2 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Find the line in script that looks like this, Set Controller = CreateObject("B2S.Server"), and change it to this Set Controller = CreateObject("VPinMAME.Controller"). Thank you! This solved my issue as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
