Great table. Thanks ! I mean if I hit the left side of the boat with a good swing, the ball comes back as if there were some resistance. This doesn't always happen, but I've noticed. Maybe you notice that too and you can fix it with an update. I always play with the minimum room because my PC can't do that despite a 3080 GC ..

I played it quite a bit, and hadn't noticed that left ramp issue..  I will see what I can do about it.  Thanks for mentioning it.     This room ran a little bit slow during multiball with my 980ti, but with my 3060ti it runs perfectly here...  Different Supersampling options set perhaps..

I'll add to this while using v1.0.3 that several times I have hit a good shot up the left of the boat and also seen some sort of resistance in that the ball would stop and come back down (seems like it rattles left and right quickly and then rolls back down). Full room runs great even at full render resolution at 80Hz bumping the debug tool to 1.7 ss with Quest 2 and RTX 3080.

Thanks for the review.  I will definitely take a look at that ramp and see what I can do.

Try as I might, I cannot recreate this left ramp issue..    I looked around in that area in the editor, and I dont see anything obvious that could cause it either.   Would one of you guys mind pointing out for me a little bit clearer exactly where it happens?  Is it at the beggining.. half way up?  Hmm..    I plan on putting out another small update for this room for something else, so I was hoping to also get to the bottom of this.

[studlygoorite]

on it

[studlygoorite]

Ok it just happened the first hard shot, ball shot right back down as soon as it hit where the bend to the right starts. I can't see anything obstructing the ramp.

Thanks for the help.   Ill take a clearer look later tonight when I'm no longer cross-eyed.  lol.   I was hitting them pretty hard right up the center of the left boat ramp and couldn't get this behavior.  When this happens, does it look like the ball is entering the ramp right up the middle?

[studlygoorite]

Yeah it all looks good entering, I'm going to try a re-download and see if it changes anything.

[studlygoorite]

Too bad I can't edit my previous.... After re-downloading the issue continues. You might be able to see a slight white horizontal line right at the bend.

[studlygoorite]

I wouldn't worry too much about it, if it doesn't make it up the ramp one time, it will the next. Thanks again. 

[Rawd]

Hey everyone.  The ramp has been fixed!  Thanks 3rdAxis.   A couple of other small fixes as well.  Enjoy!
