Anybody else get crashes? The error message goes away too quick so I can't really tell what it says. The last time it happened was when I hit the drop down target in the left orbit.

I get a crash on startup running official release 10.8 and up to date on all other apps.  Hmm.  Edit: redownloaded the ROM from vpforums, redownloaded the table and B2S (full DMD) from here and everything fires up.  I did not do one by one and test because of lazy, but fires up great now so good to go. Great table!  Thanks team!

Many thanks

Thank you so much vpw team. What a beautiful table and it plays really great

Awesome improvement over the previous versions of this table, looks great. Thank you very much.

I found the flippers to be a little too strong, and it seemed the table plays a smidge too fast, so I decreased flipper strength to 2000 and increased playfield friction to 0.3 for a quick fix. I'm sure there is more to tuning than this, but for now it seems to play more realistic - at least to me.

Thanks  to everyone from the VPW team that made this table possible.

Great fun  and plays wonderful.

I tried installing the latest updates to my laptop but no luck yet. The error code upon crashing reads D3DERR_Devicehung. Has anybody else gotten anything similar or is something up with my specific hardware maybe?

The POV is not an Update. It just adjusts the view of the original table, so should not cause this error. It is possibly caused by an outdated driver for your GPU.

Proposed Test:

a) Open the table in VPX. Before running/playing the table go to graphic settings and ensure that all "Anti Aliasing" is "Disabled". Be sure to save before exiting. Run the table.

b) Here is a helpfull link if PC still crashes after driver update  https://www.vpforums.org/index.php?showtopic=43032

No I mean I installed the latest Windows updates. But it turns out it was in fact caused by an outdated driver. So it's fixed. Thanks either way.

Also the link you posted recommends throwing your GPU in the oven. So even if I wanted to do that I couldn't because I'm on a laptop. Though TIL that you can apparently bake your GPU as a last resort fix :P

How do you modify dip switches to have 5 balls?

This table is a playable work of art.  Thank you!

The table stops loading during "Starting Game Scipt" and won`t start. Any idea how I could fix this?

Edit 1 day later  I found the solution. The table startet with deactivated b2s server. After that I activated b2s again and the table started as well. 

Now everything seems to work fine.

Really beautiful table.  Thankyou.

Has anyone else had issues with the game getting stuck when draining down the middle?

Happens fairly regularly in my case. 

I've as seen the ball jump across the orbit and get stuck behind the drop down target on the far left orbit. The game doesn't do a ball search/solenoid cycle, so requires a reset.

just played my first round of this (beautiful) table and wanted to report that I immediately also had a stuck game after ball 2 drained down the middle

update - this table made its way very quickly into my favorites. so fun. but I've had stuck tables on ball 2 drains around 1/3 of the time

Thank you for this great release. I enjoy playing this machine.

Just a heads-up: the ball got stuck ones behind the stand-up target.
As shown in the image, it went over the plastic—see the red arrow.

Hello,

Quite the same issue for me, the ball got stuck behind the yellow "Launch Ball" Target. It went over the plastic too. Nevertheless, a very nice and fun table, good job !
