Love me some Xenon, awesome classic!!  Thanks to everyone involved for the revamp.

Why is the file gone?

As said in every other file download thread:

 

Site is down for maintenance.  Patience.

Hi thanks for the great update. I'm running via VP10 8 as recommended and haven't changed the POV and I'm having an issue using the digital plunger where the ball is hardly making it onto the playfield. Has no-one else had this issue? Any idea what would cause this issue? Thanks  

 

 

*****SOLVED - plunger issue was sorted by unchecking 'filter mechanical plunger' - now plunges as should!*****

Awesome table but as the original from JP, there is something going on with the ramp, it is almost impossible to make, like the slope is too steep. I have a real Xenon and plays a lot on it so I can compare both. If this ramp thing could be improved, it would make that table almost perfect.

People with the real machine are invaluable!  The best way to improve the ramp would be to get measurements so that it is modeled correctly.  For example, a couple of the reference measurements of the RBION center ramp checking distances and heights at key points

Look what I have on my rotisserie. How about we dial in the metal ramp, tube and a few other things to correct scale?

My Cybernaut ramp / tube combo should work when mirrored! They have generic blender textures. Scale might be off too!

Awesome! I do not mind taking some pieces of my machine to measure properly as well. let me know what you need ! 😉

It seems that it was also used in the Mandalorian!

I know this table has been out for a while, and I noticed an older comment by @berk104.
It was playing fine for a day, but now the ball gets stuck in the saucer and doesn't pop out, or the 2nd ball doesn't appear. 

 

I deleted my .cfg file and redownloaded the table but the same behaviour. Anything I can check to address it?

so this was tested over and over... these issues never popped up....
as for code... 99% of the code is still JP's
so unless our testers can replicate it, these are just anomalies

@hauntfreaks Thanks for replying. Thinking back to when I last played it, I was adjusting the ROM settings. 

When I changed Top saucer first 2X lites to  “Not in memory” it plays normally. 
Not sure what the cause is but maybe this will help people in the future. 

 

Great table BTW!
