2.0 table credits:

 

- Burger & Schlabber34 - Thanks to Burger for bringing this table back to life. He asked me if he could update the physics and all the table creators know how this usually ends. Then we needed a nice F12 menu, then Burger mentioned VR, the ramps were prerendered so i had to make VR optimized ramps but the meshes were shitty so i cleaned them up and then you need new renders for VR refraction and the prerandered ramps. After a ton of bugs that we killed we finally had V2.0!

 

@burgerIt was a pleasure! Thanks my friend!

 

- UnclePaulie - A ton of help on bug fixing and sticking his head deep into the VR table.

- DGrimmreaper - VR cabinet primitives, VR animations and lights including VR flipper cabinet button/start button/plunger, ported DMD and b2s to VR, VR scripting, VR hallway

- Studleygoorite – Identified missing details and provided solutions to several tricky issues

- Hauntfreaks - B2S backglass update that brings the table together visually

- masonm- cabinet textures for VR cabinet

- DaRdog- UV maps in VR that made texturing possible

- Thalamus - Careful playtesting and valuable feedback throughout development

- Robby King Pin – physics support

- Tombg - playtesting

What's New in Version 2.0.4   See changelog

Released

- I had to split a few transparent parts to make the Depth Bias and the Depth Mask work. Burger added all of that to the script.

- To the right of the VUK - wire ramp (DT / cab): Now the transparent ramps and the transparent plastic that prevents the ball from jumping of the ramp are showing the transparency correctly and the ugly black reflection is gone. You can now see the ball travel through that are.

- New prim and render for that transparent plastic above the red and yellow bumpers (DT / cab).

- The hole that feeds the ball into the inlane is now visible through the ramps sidewall (mostly DT perspective).

- Rendered textures are now showing front and backside reflections through transparency (DT/ cab).

- Sad but true for the VR guys, the VPX refraction doesen't allow for double refraction. You can't see the lower VRrefraction ramp through the upper refraction ramp or the ball jump protector. It doesen't even show refraction through transparency. Looks like the old render engine has reached it's limits.

- Changes to the credits. Sorry @RobbyKingPin. Updated credits for @DGrimmReaper .

For the VR guys:

 

If you have graphic bugs in VR, turning of PF reflection (balls only should work) or turning of flashers in the F12 menu should help!

I just wanted to thank everybody who worked on this! Thanks guys! This turned out great!

 

I have to separate a few transparent parts in a future update because the depth bias is not working in a few areas.

Thanks everyone for sharing your work!

@Schlabber34  What line in the script enables VR in desktop mode?

Yeah turning of flashers did it for me. I'll check PF reflection as well, but I generally like that better.

Looks great and plays well, thanks. I do wish it had VLM lighting effects though, that would make it top tier.

I forgot something when i saved the table for the upload:

 

Start the table, exit the table and click on live editor. On the left side click on layer_2. Expand the layer. Look for "pPlasticRamp" click on it and deselect "depth mask". Hit the disk / save symbol next to it. It should be ghosted out when successfully saved. Do the same on layer_3 for "pPlasticRampGIOff". Save the table.

 

What it does, it let's the transparent stuff see through itself if that makes sense. You can see it on the ramp exit over the left outlane. You can now see the drop hole through the side of the ramp. And it will also change the visible reflections.

 

I will implement that in an future update!

You could try Alt+tab until the DMD is on top, exit table and come back in. If that doesn't work  try  Alt+tab to the backglass, right click anywhere on the backglass with the mouse, then "bring Forms" dropdown...Form to Back. If not, try loading the table directly without using a front end if you are using one

not 100% certain but I think back in the day, Dark modeled Frank's head on pics I sent him of my friend's Frankenstein machine but... it's so long ago he may have redone it.  So no change in the credits, just providing history :)

LOL I remember part of the workload was Dark did a custom version of the bust using my head.  I gotta see if there's a way to do this again in this new version.  Frankenloaf rises again! 

Looking forward to checking this out once I can get past these next two days. Merry Christmas everyone!

Background to standard could also help in the ingame right click menu.
