Terminator 2 (Williams 1991) g5k

---

Check the top of the script for some user options.

 

This version (1.1d) was lifted from my cabinet and has been adjusted along the way. I can't recall what has changed since 1.1c which was the version out there.

 

This Terminator 2 build was the start for me in vpx authoring. I had an idea to do it differently back in 2018 and use ray traced baked lighting...and feck me – it worked! The backglass I made from photos I took from a real one. Originally hosted on the now defunct Monster Bash Pincab. DJRobx helped out with implementing code for SSF and Ninuzzu added the laser mod. Also special mention to nFozzy and his version that was around at that time which I used to help learn how it all worked.

 

I've been reluctant to upload my work  because I don't have the time to support it. I love this game and it plays so close to the real table I have in my studio. 

 

I've been on a lengthy hiatus, King Flupper and the VPW guys are inspiring to watch. Hopefully some time next year to dip the toes back in the water.

 

Enjoy! (more of the back catalogue coming)

Hello, the table has no music sound. I only can hear the usual pinball sound effects.

I changed the volume to max (31) pressing 9 after opening  the coin door and the volume control on + key is on max too.

I dont know what more can I do.

Is there any music pack I have to upload?

Any help is apppreciated.

[Cliffy]

have you hit F1 and make sure Use Sound is checked?

Not sure if anyone else had this issue but the perspective was off and the flippers were off the bottom of the screen. I changed y-scale to 0.95 (and x-scale to the same but not strictly needed) and y-offset to 0 and it's much better.

I can't find the y-scale setting - could you please explain how I can find it? Thanks!

There was a nice POV tutorial on the old VPinball site written by Drybonz. You can still access it here

This table is amazing! Love it. Out of curiosity, is there a simple way to adjust the overall GI brightness?  The table seems quite a bit brighter than in the screenshot at the top of the post and definitely brighter than the real T2 table I used to own.

Same here but I changed Z Offset from -650 to -350

Hi, enjoying table but sometimes the flippers feel weak or the ball feels like it's too slippery on this one only for me. Is it possibly because I'm using certain settings incorrectly? thank you.

[DeBo26]

Great work....Dof not working on flippers for me

 

Thanks!

[kenzeiger]

Wow what an improvement over the last version.  Way to go!!

 

I am getting a dot network error on the backglass file but is okay when using a different file...

 

Help please.

 

Thanks

[Dhitch83]

I’m getting a script error that says invalid procedure line 3324 ‘RGB’ not sure what that means

[Keefus]

Hi, this table looks fantastic, unfortunately for me the flippers arent working, all other buttons work and flippers work fine in other tables.

 

Thanks

[Terrada]

Hi. Thanks for your work and update. Sadly, laser mod is not working for me and I already enabled it in the script, do you have any idea?

Try enabling in the F12 menu instead

[rjclarkee]

another superb update - thanks G5K, One thing thats weird for me......the bumpers are orange not red?   all other tables show fine.... so its not my TV. any help appreciated!

[DeWe]

@g5k Thx for your work of the nice and excellent update of the table. I've one question and need your help:

How can I move the FireButton  to the MagSav Button? I didn't have found an option in the script. 

In some situation,  after fire and hit the target, a ball is very fast release and to move the fingers back to the flipper button...... 

Thank you in advance  

[DeWe]

The right MagnaSave Button is working now ( In this moment without light )  It's need only 2 place to expand:

Edited December 23, 2024 by DeWe

[DeWe]

To let the RGB MagnaSave Right lightning simular as the fire button add in DOF Config the same value as for the fire button RGB. Save, generate and import the config files. The control is still available in the Script

So I am running into the error when trying to run this in Visual Pinball:

 

Illegal procedure call or argument: 'RGB'

 

After calculating the algorithm in the two RGB Calls it results in negative numbers which cause the RGB method call error.   

 

Original code:

Sub FlFadeBumper(nr, Z)
	FlBumperBase(nr).BlendDisableLighting = 0.5 * DayNightAdjust
	'   UpdateMaterial(string, float wrapLighting, float roughness, float glossyImageLerp, float thickness, float edge, float edgeAlpha, float opacity,
	'			   OLE_COLOR base, OLE_COLOR glossy, OLE_COLOR clearcoat, VARIANT_BOOL isMetal, VARIANT_BOOL opacityActive,
	'			   float elasticity, float elasticityFalloff, float friction, float scatterAngle) - updates all parameters of a material
	FlBumperDisk(nr).BlendDisableLighting = (0.5 - Z * 0.3 ) * DayNightAdjust
	
	Select Case FlBumperColor(nr)
		Case "red"
		UpdateMaterial "bumperbulbmat" & nr, 0, 0.75 , 0, 1 - Z, 1 - Z, 1 - Z, 0.9999, RGB(255, 16 - 11 * Z + 16 * Sin(Z * 3.14),0), RGB(255,255,255), RGB(32,32,32), False, True, 0, 0, 0, 0
		FlBumperSmallLight(nr).intensity = 17 + 100 * Z / (1 + DNA30 ^ 2)
		FlBumperTop(nr).BlendDisableLighting = 3 * DayNightAdjust + 18 * Z / (1 + DNA90)
		FlBumperBulb(nr).BlendDisableLighting = 20 * DayNightAdjust + 9000 * (0.03 * Z + 0.97 * Z ^ 10)
		Flbumperbiglight(nr).intensity = 10 * Z / (1 + DNA45)
		FlBumperHighlight(nr).opacity = 2000 * (Z ^ 3) / (1 + DNA90)
		MaterialColor "bumpertopmat" & nr, RGB(255,20 + Z * 4,8 - Z * 8)
	End Select
End Sub

 

 

I am guessing and could be wrong by the order of mathematics we need a couple parenthesis so it would look like this:

Sub FlFadeBumper(nr, Z)
	FlBumperBase(nr).BlendDisableLighting = 0.5 * DayNightAdjust
	'   UpdateMaterial(string, float wrapLighting, float roughness, float glossyImageLerp, float thickness, float edge, float edgeAlpha, float opacity,
	'			   OLE_COLOR base, OLE_COLOR glossy, OLE_COLOR clearcoat, VARIANT_BOOL isMetal, VARIANT_BOOL opacityActive,
	'			   float elasticity, float elasticityFalloff, float friction, float scatterAngle) - updates all parameters of a material
	FlBumperDisk(nr).BlendDisableLighting = (0.5 - Z * 0.3 ) * DayNightAdjust
	
	Select Case FlBumperColor(nr)
		Case "red"
		UpdateMaterial "bumperbulbmat" & nr, 0, 0.75 , 0, 1 - Z, 1 - Z, 1 - Z, 0.9999, RGB(255, (16 - 11) * Z + 16 * Sin(Z * 3.14),0), RGB(255,255,255), RGB(32,32,32), False, True, 0, 0, 0, 0
		FlBumperSmallLight(nr).intensity = 17 + 100 * Z / (1 + DNA30 ^ 2)
		FlBumperTop(nr).BlendDisableLighting = 3 * DayNightAdjust + 18 * Z / (1 + DNA90)
		FlBumperBulb(nr).BlendDisableLighting = 20 * DayNightAdjust + 9000 * (0.03 * Z + 0.97 * Z ^ 10)
		Flbumperbiglight(nr).intensity = 10 * Z / (1 + DNA45)
		FlBumperHighlight(nr).opacity = 2000 * (Z ^ 3) / (1 + DNA90)
		MaterialColor "bumpertopmat" & nr, RGB(255,20 + Z * 4,(8 - Z) * 8)
	End Select
End Sub

 

 

Notice the parenthesis to force order.   It fixed my script so it worked but just wanted to make sure that the numerics we intended still results in same Luminance numbers you are trying to achieve.

hello there, after installing latest VPX from github and correct ROM, I finally can run this table - but now, the flippers are not moving.

I checked some other tables and some work, but a few have the same problem.

 

Do you have an idea, why this happens?

 

CHeers

 

edit: I also had the RGB error, this went away after running VPX 10.8 RC7

You also need the newest vpinmame. Get the 2 bottom files in the artifacts window here;

[EloWan]

great news, after installing latest vpinmame dlls the flippers decided to function

 

 

[EloWan]

sorry for nagging again - but is it possible to somehow move the "Display" of this table, that is at the left side?

I´ve found out I can use the  PinUP Pack Editor to re-arrange the screens (like Music, Backglass, topper and so on) but this does not

work with the Terminator table.

 

Is there an option somewhere else, the allows me to:

 

• Move the Display at the left 
•  

Other than that what a great experience.

 

I got this running on iphone as well, cool haptics

 

Can´t wait to try it in VR soon.

 

Cheers
