How to have tables added to DOF Config?

[scampa123]

I was wondering what the process was to have a table added to DOF Config?

I was hoping to have Pinball Wicked added.   While I know it isn't setup for DOF perse, I can use DOFLinx to have flippers and plunger support.

By adding DOF Config, I am hoping I'd be able to add MX Undercab lighting to the table as well...or maybe even some default MX stuff for the matrix.

I'm still new to this piece, so if I'm way off, please let me know!  Thank you!

I actually had the same question, I was unable to see if there is an official process for this. Wanting to add miraculous and trolls by JP, as it appears he has the DOF in the script, but not seeing the tables in the config tool database.

[outhere]

With EM or original tables it's pretty easy just to change the game name and then change the DOF in the table script to match that table
Const cGameName = "miraculous"
Change to
Const cGameName = "diablo"
More in here if needed - https://www.vpforums.org/index.php?showtopic=34429

Ahh, so for example edit Diablo table and in the table script change the name to Diablo and it will use that config for feedback? I think I’m following you on that one, ok cool. Thank you! Will give it a go

Hi @outhere

sorry to relife this old thread, but i have the similar question:

how can i create a (empty) new table entry for a new original table in dof config online tool ?

So i then could creating and downloading the (private) config and try/test it with different dof effects, toys ... ?

 

maybe i think about a "dummy" table entry in dof config online tool which i can then rename to my fitting, change some lines and save/download it ?

And of course, if all is working fine with this "new dof-table-rom" entry, perhaps to publish it to the public ?

For Testing Use any Game on the DOF website ( A Game you don't have on your setup) And temporarily use that ROM Name in your new original table

When your ready I or someone can ADD the New Game to the DOF Website

Thanks for your fast response!

Of course, this could be a solution.

(For me maybe it could be more difficult to find an unused Rom, as I have already about 1500 tables in my cab 😁😂)

Hi,

again on an old topic.

I'm currently in the process of getting "Dof" to work on all of my tables in my cabinet.

Some tables, e.g. Sincity or Deathproof, are based on ROMs from other tables. It might make sense to add this as a copy to the table configs. This way you could customize both tables individually. otherwise it is much more difficult for the more inexperienced users to get it running.

Maybe @outhere or one of the other dof admins could say something about it.

I don't believe you can Because those games use the original ROM you cannot

[digitalarts]

@outhereimho it is possible.

Own created table (but Rom based)

Option 1

In script, cgamename = myprettynewtable

In vpmalias.txt : myprettynewtable,[real Romname]

Result: table is working, but no dof

 

Option 2:

In script, cgamename = [real Romname]_myprettynewtable

In vpmalias.txt : [real Romname]_myprettynewtable,[real Romname]

Result: table is working, dof is working (uses dof from real Rom)

 

Option 3: (requires that you, Outhere, copy the dof settings of real Rom name into a new entry named myprettynewtable)

In script, cgamename = myprettynewtable

In vpmalias.txt : myprettynewtable,[real Romname]

Result: table is working, dof is working (uses dof of myprettynewtable, which can be customized independently)

@digitalarts

Thanks for the detailed Description of the options. That's exactly my result after trying out all possible variations.

My favorite is definitely option 3, because then I can give the new table some other configurations. Most tables have a completely different color scheme.

I added those two games to the DOF website
Go ahead and fill them in and submit it for public use

[floeschng]

Perfect. Thank you.
I will be happy to fill out both configurations. Before I submit it to the community, I would like to adapt and test it directly.

Hi, i submitted the config for both tables "Death Proof" and " Sin City".

In the meantime I have also found another table for which I would like to upload my config.

Same problem as with the other two tables.

 

@outhere: The Table "Dark Crystal" -> Basic Rom (Template) is serioussam

Can you please add this and i can then add my config for it
