Nicolainuke Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Saddened to hear of Jeff's passing. He touched many people around the world with his passion for pinball and love of the community. He will be remembered as giving and selfless - someone we respect and should all aspire to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFR1 Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Really enjoying this '21 Christmas Storm of Loserman76 uploads. The time he spent compiling and updating these tables had to take ...almost forever. I sent Jeff a note early in my vp journey. Maybe about the static ball on Duotron being stuck. He responded and somewhere in his note was something about 'commenting out' lines in the script. I had no idea what that meant so spent an evening googling. And a year learning how to use the vp editor. A few years later?... I'm with my gf's son this past Sunday. He's a CS/Math major at JCU here in Cleveland. Senior. Deans List. Leading a team working with another team from Ohio State on a legacy project 5 semesters/ten teams deep. This is crazy stuff. He has a presentation to the client in a few days and has to have a 'deliverable.' App interface stuff. He's tearing his hair out because the OSU team just broke how his teams scripting had been working. So I say -why not start commenting out the new lines of code they added?. He looked at me like I had sprouted a 2nd head. And then mumbled....I was just about to start doing that. Two hours later he had it figured out. Thanks Jeff. and oh! The new upload of Magnotron has a working static ball!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to take a little while, but we have a team of a couple people working on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Content Provider leojreimroc Posted December 11, 2021 Content Provider Share Posted December 11, 2021 This is really sad. I had a few interactions with him when I first started working on adding VR to tables. His Atlantis was one of the first tables that I converted, and he was always pleasant to talk to. I'll have to play a few of his tables. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFR1 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Jeff's commitment to creating and sharing was unequaled. The work he did and the catalogue he created is Smithsonian.
