@Panasony that is absolutely amazing. Is there a discord normal visual pinball group? If so it would be great to be part of that to help develop. As long as they will accept a newbie like me 😉
 

So I wont post a new update just yet as I'm sure the moderators/administrators will be well chuffed if I keep doing just minor updates. So I'm looking at posting end of next week new updates, hopefully with a bit more added. If that's ok with everyone.

 

@meakin68 Your tags don't seem to be tagging, so in case Panasony doesn't read that message, here are two groups to join:

Can you please test my Options files above (and switch to the BKSoR background files included)?

Yeah, I don't know what's up with your options. Use mine.

@meakin68 You can improve the image above the slingshots because the image is misaligned :

You can see the problem directly in the editor when you check "Display Image in Editor" :

On Photoshop, you can add a layer with all elements in the table for check if the image image25.webp is adapted to all plastics : you can export the layer in Visual Pinball : File/Export/Blueprint.

Hi, I’ve tried to lower the background music volume through the PuP-Pack. I’ve checked the script, but no matter what I do, I can’t get the volume to change. Does anyone know how to make it sound quieter? Thanks a lot.

Fix a few things:

1. Edit the puppack and look at triggers, change all the 5 to a 2.

2. Edit the script, at the top there is A FullDMD = 5 option change the 5 to a 2.

In the Table1_Exit 

Add a line before Controller.Stop 
On Error Resume Next

This will put the PUP on the Backglass and will fix a error on table exit

Here, i fixed the start game early issue by start gating the button, also fixed some of the ball tracking issues, as I had a ball get lost/destroyed and my vpinball..log blew up to like 25mb and then started numbering them, the longer i left the table open. Some other fixes in here too.

However, I run this on the VPXS standalone so be warned any VPX Windows users will need to redo the callouts fixed found in the comments section here.

@meakin68 - Feel free to take/borrow/steal any reworks/fixes to code in here to include in your future updates (just "Find" all my edits by searching "VPXS"), no credit necessary

I was having the same problem of BG beeing all black and that solved it. Many thanks.

Hi !

Unfortunately I have a lot of ball blocked  somewhere during multiball combined with other multiball or mission....there is no ball search so it is impossible to continue the game.

I've seen a ball jailed under the ramp or other totally disappeared somewhere.....

@niliang74 check out the script I posted a few comments up.... You will have to redo the callout fix if you are using VPX on Windows, as My script I edited for VPXS (Linux based). But that callouts fix is also here in the comments, on page 2 from someone. or I can just multi-quote lol

So, it appears that indeed the images, not the pup files are causing the issue (which makes much more sense, for some reason the .alt file works correctly, while the others do not)

Everyone interested, please test the options files here.
I have added Option 0, which is the original setup in this download, to be used with a b2s file. So everything can be reverted at any point

So, the PUP files I gave you didn't work? When I tested yours, they didn't work at all. When I tested mine with the same assets you have, they were fine. If you're using the PUP backglass, do NOT use a B2S or you're gonna have issues.

Yeah, yours worked for all practical purposes (and so did mine). Both showed BKSOR_BackGlass.png and BKSOR2ScreenBG.png as black rectangles however (without any b2s)

Hi ! thank you very much...so I have totally replaced the script of the table with yours, then I have  replaced the session "callout" with the fix for  VPX on Windows.....everything it seems working now ! In case, I let you know...thanks again !

Hi everyone,

I redesigned this screen for the PuP-Pack. To get the PuP-Pack video perfectly centered inside the frame, I modified the variables in PuP Pack Editor. 

For FullDMD and DMDVideos, I used these ⁠CustomPos⁠ settings:

⁠2,22.5,32.6,54.9,48.9⁠ 

Hope this helps

Hi All

 

What a day I've had so:

 

@houstonc11 if you could say what flipper and friction settings you are using  that would be great. I don't have access to the machine and never played it so the physics was purely a guess based on Nfozzy documents and watching videos of the game being played. If you have experience of the table and those setting are better I would love to use them.

I changed it to 0.25 and it is way less bouncy. (IM LotB uses 0.26 FWIW)
Flippers I know nothing about.

I've played the table in person and is what I use and feels pretty darn close:

Table friction: 0.32

Table slope 6.1 (min & max)

Flipper strength: 2600 (with coil ramp up set to 1.0)

upper flipper strength: 1800 (with coil ramp up set to 1.0)

@houstonc11 That is brilliant thank you. Just put these settings on my latest version and it seems to play well. Got to sign out now but will be hopefully posting version 0.91 with several improvements. Just need to do some final checks, tomorrow before updating. But this is how it now looks and quite a few code changes such as @FilthTribe211 ramp checks (with extra checks to ensure start button resets lights too) Thank you I have added a credit in script and will on the update too.  Also New F12 menu for a lot of the settings including turning on/off rails and default to 3 balls.

@meakin68 - You fixed how the plunge lane looks! You magnificent bastard! I love you!  In all seriousness, this is a beautiful overhaul. The lighting is a lot better. The only thing I am getting upon launch with the PUP is that the backglass is all black and doesn't show up. Using my backglass produces blank white video on occasion. Don't know what's going on with that. Also, you seem to be missing ball rolling audio effects and you can't hear the ball interacting with other pieces on the table. Yes, you can hear slingshots and bumpers but everything else is largely silent. Hope that helps. Otherwise, phenomenal job. Major step forward.

The table is so amazing, the new update is brillant.

Thanks for you hard work on this beauty.

@meakin68Thanks for clarifying that the object in the far left orbit is indeed supposed to be a drop target, and for fixing it so the ball no longer gets stuck behind it. This is a fantastic update and this table is really amazing now. Thanks again for your excellent work!!!

This table has improved leaps and bounds with your work, thank you so much for taking over this project.  This latest update is especially wonderful.

If i may request something for a future update:  I don't work how this works, but is it possible to set the 3D depth of the top of the playfield (the area with the pop bumpers and the upper rollovers) so that it appears UNDER the clear upper playfield (i.e. the part at the top of the ramps)?  Currently it looks like that area is on the upper playfield when using 3D shaders.  Everything else looks great.  Not a huge thing but just wondering.

Here's what I'm getting trying to launch straight from your PUP on a 2 screen cab. A few others are having this issue, too. Trying to switch out backglass with the one I created does the same. Overriding it using the Pup Editor fixes it but causes issues with the Pup.
