One thing causing errors was all the Controller.* extras in the script, I get further along by removing/commenting those

now I'm at the switch mapping which is giving me grief

switch 22 is coin door closed. See if you can comment it out and get further.

 

If you look at the cc_machine.yaml it tells you what all of the switches, solenoids and lamps in the real game.

No, I get rid of one error and get another error. I've tried all kinds of game configs trying to get it to work, I still think I'm closer on the JD install than the CCC install. I am sure I don't have the games/jd and games/cactuscanyon folders set up right, as the zip files provided just had everything in the base folder, but my research said dmd and fonts and sounds had to be in a folder named assets... so I wonder what else I'm missing? If you have the PROC part working, would you show me your folder tree for CCC? and what files are where? I could still be missing files

Posted

Sure, here is the file structure for CCC (there are 3 zip files that contain everything, just unzip and the folders should be created)

 

\cactuscanyon\

\cactuscanyon\cc_modes

\cactuscanyon\config

\cactuscanyon\dmd (this is where all of the dmd files go from the dmd file zip)

\cactuscanyon\dots

\cactuscanyon\dots_sm_square

\cactuscanyon\dots_sqaure

\cactuscanyon\ep

\cactuscanyon\highscore

\cactuscanyon\images

\cactuscanyon\lampshows

\cactuscanyon\procgame

\cactuscanyon\shared

\cactuscanyon\sounds (note there are 3 subfolders music, quotes and sfx that the sounds go into. the sound zip is arranged for this)

\cactuscanyon\sounds\music

\cactuscanyon\sounds\quotes

\cactuscanyon\sounds\sfx

assets.py

cc.py (this is the main routine)

cc_machine.yaml (the machine settings file)

config.yaml (the keys file and some locations)

game.py (main run file)

tracking.py (main stats file)

vp_game_map.yaml (not sure about this one, it has to be somewhere)

 

you will also have compiled versions (assets.pyc, tracking.pyc,game.pyc) in this root folder. There is no 'assets' folder. The folders for the assets are 'dmd' and 'sounds' for CCC. Other games are laid out differently and have nothing to do with CCC.

 

JD for example has this file structure:

\jd

\jd\config

\jd\dmd

\jd\games

\jd\lamps

\jd\sound

 

There are 17 more files in the jd folder. Thats just the way the author wrote it.

I can run the skeleton table just fine that's why I feel like it's a file structure or config issue... I messaged a few people who said it could work earlier

LTA, can you zip your CCC folder and put it in a dropbox for me? I'm going to wipe this out and start over from the beginning again and want to be sure I have a working folder tree

I'd be willing to give the install a try as I at least have P-Roc working with VPX in my cab. I don't have the DMD or audio assets either. I did get Evil Dead installed and running. Found I couldn't get a ball to launch but that may be because I was using DSR and downscaling from 4K.

so my first steps works ... black and White (?) but ok ;) ... clear "wind Sound" ... then, what you guys did next, fren, luv ?

have an error at Register ... tried with vpt also,

of course with Set Controller = CreateObject("VPROC.Controller") ...

i am not surprised: dont run, not yet ...

post-5730-0-56788500-1449573575_thumb.png

i am a bit confused about the files, there are much to config ...

Posted

Good. You have the p-roc code working.

The color display is fixed at a large res something like 1024x512, I'd have to check. It was so the display would perfectly fit the window

On the physical dmd. This is ok.

Seems everyone has the problem with the last step. Either the register vpcom doesn't register or the vproc controller crashes when it does register.

about VP: what we have to do ? first Launch the DMD, then start VP ?

about the Controller ... dont work ... Fren: i am interesting, what are your steps atm. ?

 

but we have to move the CCC Folder ( atm. mine is at c:/ ) to

C:\P-ROC\games\cactuscanyon ... thats right ?

And then, there are many paths in many Files.

Thats bad, i have mixed many Tutorials :wacko:

Holy mother, what a Special ... atm. i do enjoy the Animations and Wind Sound lol

But i am sure, THIS machine will run soon ...

 

Edit: yes, got it registered ... forgot to run python as Admin.

But have no luck atm., i am here: https://github.com/mjocean/proc-visual-pinball

at "Config changes to your P-ROC settings to use the Visual Pinball/ Virtual P-ROC Bridge"

I think just Need to pair VP and PROC ... have to go out for a while :(

cont. later ... love this Screen ....
