Content Provider TerryRed Posted October 23, 2022 Content Provider Posted October 23, 2022 View File JAWS - BIGGER BOAT EDITION (PinEvent V2, FizX 3.3) JAWS - BIGGER BOAT EDITION Table version: 2.0 (July 2026) ====================================== This table began as Rom's classic JAWS table for Future Pinball from many years ago. Then SLAMT1LT modded it over the years which evolved to his Ultimate Pro version. I proceeded to mod and update the Ultimate Pro table for FizX physics, PinEvent, and a complete table overhaul with many new additions and features which became the BIGGER BOAT EDITION. It has been completely updated to use the newest modern BAM features to create an amazing real-time visual treat. It’s also been overhauled to use the latest FizX physics which completely transforms a Future Pinball table to have excellent modern physics for the entire table! I updated it to my PinEvent V2 standard, to allow for optional DOF, SSF, PUPDMD and other features that take this to another level. (now also updated to use PUP 2.0’s latest features!) ==================================================================== A video preview of the 2.0 update can be seen here: ====================================== Created by: TerryRed : Jaws - Bigger Boat Edition SLAMT1LT : Ultimate Pro table update ROM : the original FP Jaws table Thanks to: Schlabber34: insert jewel images FLEEP: mechanical sounds JLou : FizX and support ravarcade: BAM and support Nailbuster: Pinup Player and support Chris Leathley: Future Pinball ==================================================================== DISCLAIMER: This table is a fan-made work of passion, and is NOT intended for commercial usage or to be included in any part of a commercial sale! ==================================================================== This is a three player game! ==================================================================== Physics: FizX v3.3 ==================================================================== TABLE REQUIREMENTS (very important!) - all Visual C Runtime updates - DirectX - Future Pinball - the latest BAM update - FuturePinball.exe and FPLoader.exe patched for 4 GB access - BAM Settings files installed - FizX 1K ball model (for more accurate physics, default.zip in BAM folder) - the REQUIRED “Video / Rendering Options” and “Editor Options” in Future Pinball video settings NOT TO WORRY! All of the above is included with the latest FP and BAM Essentials AIO package! Super easy to use for a new install, or just to update your existing install. I recommend everyone install this package to ensure you have the latest required BAM updates and other files installed! https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/14807-future-pinball-and-bam-essentials-all-in-one-complete/ ==================================================================== IMPORTANT! - UPDATE REQUIRED!

Simply install the latest FP and BAM Essentials AIO, and you are good to go! ==================================================================== What options can you try if your GPU has less VRAM (less than 6 GB)? - you can enable Texture Compression (in FP video settings) which greatly reduces how much vram is used - if you use a "Start FP" bat file, then you will also need to enable Texture Compression in that file! - enabling Texture Compression may take a little longer to load, but not much ==================================================================== GUIDES INCLUDED WITH THE GAME It's important that all players get to know the following docs, for their own benefit!

PsychoKiller Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 Amazing as always @TerryRed . Jaws has always been one of my favorites along with Halloween which I still hope you can get out for Halloween. You sir are a master of pinball.
Content Provider TerryRed Posted October 24, 2022 Author Content Provider Posted October 24, 2022 Halloween Big Bloody Mike won't be out for the 31st, but probably shortly afterward.
Content Provider TerryRed Posted October 25, 2022 Author Content Provider Posted October 25, 2022 "Quick fix for error when disabling the PUP Stream Billboard" If you disabled the PUP Stream Billboard in TABLE OPTIONS, you would get this error. I have fixed the error and uploaded the fixed table. It's still version 1.1, just now with this fix. Just redownload and install this fixed 1.1 table to replace the one you are using.
jeffreco Posted October 29, 2022 Posted October 29, 2022 Finally have time to play and it looks I've done SOMETHING dumb! I'm getting script error Line 2180. Pinball meditation error Object doesn't support this property or method: 'xBAM.Manual Roller. Has anybody run into this. I know it's probably user error, but haven't figured it out yet!

I know it's probably user error, but haven't figured it out yet! Yes, everyone who gets that error, was the result of not updating to the newest BAM update, and then patching both FP and BAM for 4GB after. Read the included install instructions with the table zip whch tells you how to do all this. Don't skip any steps.
jeffreco Posted November 1, 2022 Posted November 1, 2022 Thanks Terry! I had updated, but I think something went wrong! I tried again after I posted and that did indeed solve it! I just forgot to update the message! Thanks for taking the time to respond, and thanks SO much for the tables. They are my family's favorites!
retroseriestv50 Posted December 27, 2022 Posted December 27, 2022 First of all, thank you for the AWESOME Jaws table...it's incredible...but I'd like to make a comment that scares me because maybe I haven't configured it well...The backglass is a still photo...would you Have I lost something in the puppack?

The backglass is indeed a still image, if you are using 3 screen setup. The pup-pack for PinEvent V2 was completely updated to merge both the BG and FullDMD together as this was the only older PinEvent table that didn't work the same way as all others did.
crabsticks Posted March 16, 2023 Posted March 16, 2023 I love this table thank you! Though I'm needing help I have added the future pinball Jaws bigger boat table and pup pack. It runs perfectly if I load it manually in fploader. If I run it through pinup popper it goes through the loading process then the displays switch to the desktop and I can't alt tab into the the table either.... If I hit escape the pinup menu reappears.. Any idea what I did wrong? Halloween plays just fine BTW.. It's only Jaws
WalterWhitmer Posted May 11, 2023 Posted May 11, 2023 Awesome table! I just did a fresh install of Baller Installer. I updated to the latest BAM and patched for 4gig The table plays fine, but there are little white sparkly dots sprinkled around. When the dots are on playfield inserts, they persist when the insert lights turn off. There are lots of them on the ship steering wheels over the sling area. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

It means you are running at a lower resolution, or don't have AA, or both. Those dots are reflections from the main global light on surfaces with bump maps. At higher resolutions, they look more correct like shown in my screenshots and videos.
MrGrynch Posted August 17, 2023 Posted August 17, 2023 @TerryRed I ran into a problem during gameplay: I was playing Barrel Multiball. I knocked down the drop target, which should have added another ball. It didn't. I then proceeded to get my ball eaten by the shark. After that the game just sat there waiting for the missing ball to drain. I had to quit the game and re-load it.

You could have had something like analogue nudge move the ball back down the vuk (and it could get stuck there). Solution if that happens (which I've never seen it during normal gaemplay).... TILT... then it would kick that ball out, and the game will continue

BigFun Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 This is my first table trying to setup FuturePinball on Desktop. I've followed all the setup instructions, yet when I try to start the table I get an error that says: Pinball Meditation Error Script Error: Line 2440 Variable is undefined: 'LeftFlipperExt' This error appears after everything appears done loading and the table starts. I'm not sure what to do here, so any help is appreciated. Thanks!
BigFun Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 Update: I was able to get this working after some troubleshooting steps. Rebooted, ran once as Administrator....
Krondorf Posted September 26, 2023 Posted September 26, 2023 (edited) Edit:Worked it out mostly Baller installer used FuturePinball where as the FP installer uses Future Pinball as folder names.. Still don't have plunger working though I'm having trouble with this version (1.3 works fine) I get an error (see attached file) I've done the FP/BAM 2 in 1 update (definitely have the correct BAM.dll, which i already had anyway, but i still updated) I've done the FP/BAM essentials package I've done the Visual C++ files (and rebooted) copied over the cabinet settings file checked the video settings etc.. But still get this issue Also the plunger doesn't work with manual plunger (only the button works to draw back plunger) Edited September 26, 2023 by Krondorf
Krondorf Posted September 26, 2023 Posted September 26, 2023 (edited) I don't seem to be able to change the sound volume on any FP table... Music works, but sounds dont change with HOME/END (volume bar moves but sound volume doesn't) Edited September 26, 2023 by Krondorf
chevyman1966 Posted January 25, 2024 Posted January 25, 2024 Thank you Terry for this awesome table! This is my first FP table and I love it! Question about DOF though. I have solenoids and a shaker and they don't seem to function with this game. I followed the guide and changed the script settings all to true. I also added the Pinevent to the custom launch in Popper. My Dof config tool was set up about 3 weeks ago and my Popper baller beta about 4 weeks ago. All the VPX tables have DOF working as it should. So, I must be missing something with FP. The DOF I installed was the 64bit version not the 32 if that has any impact on pinevent? Is there any advantage of installing both the 32 and 64 versions of DOF?

FP, FX3, DOFLinx, Popper are all 32 bit apps. So they require 32 bit DOF for DOF to work. VPX was the only app that required 64 bit DOF. (The newer FX may eventually need 64 bit DOFLinx).
chevyman1966 Posted January 26, 2024 Posted January 26, 2024 Well, I installed the 32 bit DOF and now with FP my playfield will not show up on my main monitor. It seems to be hidden behind the dmd or something. My main monitor just shows my normal windows desktop while in game. I tested with Jaws and Retroflair and both are the same situation. But, I can hear my solenoids clicking now so I think the 32 bit install took care of that issue at least. Any idea on the playfield situation? Thanks.
chevyman1966 Posted January 26, 2024 Posted January 26, 2024 Ok, I went into the video settings in FP and somehow the playfield ended up on monitor 2 along with the backglass. No clue why this happened. I was playing Jaws before with no issues but just without DOF. Anyway, all is working properly now. Thank you for the help with the 32 bit info.
