Star Wars Data East Game Scoreboard

[Sharon]

Hello my name is Sharon:
Can anyone help me figure out how to get the Star Wars scoreboard? I thought it was included in the backglass but I must be wrong because the backglass is there but not the scoreboard.

Thanks Much!

What star wars table? also what backglass you running? probably turned off in script but if we knew what version you are trying to load/play we can help. provide table name or better yet full file name you downloaded. should be a easy fix once we have that info

I think you need to zip the file first ;)

The file I got from vp site is a .vpt file not a .fpt file.
I just looked at all my files this is what I see.
I verified it is a .vpt file.
The files show in the Table (shows as stwr_103.zip—not sure it that matters or not), Wheel Image, ROM, and Table Image files show as file name Star Wars (Data East 1992), each with the appropriate extensions for that folder.

I searched my C: drive and cannot find an .ini file for vp or visual pinball either. Are you talking about the folder that contains the .xml? When I went into that I found the description name matched the identical file name as the wheel, table, and backglass.

I cannot express enough how much I appreciate you helping me. I have no idea if I am even close to fixing this issue. I am usually pretty good at computers and have been a liason between programmers and end users in the past, so I know bits and pieces it seems.

Sure looks from screenshot that it is looking for .fpt file? your screenshot with error is hard to read. does tavle play if you close error? just no scoring? if so. load table. right click on backglass and make sure b2s dmd is not hidden and dmd is not hidden. then you simply drag “scoring” to third monitor(your dmd) as it usually is on playfield but simply drag it to your scoring area. click back on playfield after you move it to lock position

I click on okay (which is the only choice) and it closes out. It does not allow any type of play.

I think REALLY had this correct with his link to the other discussion on this type of error. This has to be an error in your hyperpin .xml file. I don’t use HyperPin so I don’t know the name of the visual pinball .xml file is. But if you can find it, maybe you can upload that and we can look for errors inside that file.

Thanks!

Since this site does not allow for an attachment of this sort, here is what is typed in the .xml file.

<game name=”Star Wars (Data East 1992)”>
<description>star_wars</description>
<manufacturer>Atari</manufacturer>
<year>1976</year>
<type>SS</type>
</game>

I’m not 100% sure, but I’d think that the game name should actually be “Star_Wars_VP9_1.0FS” Not “Star Wars (Data East 1992)”. I would think that would be the description.

You can try that or maybe someone with Hyperpin will verify.

-Mike

EDIT: actually your MFG and year are wrong based on the screenshots too.
I think it should look like this:

<game name=”Star_Wars_VP9_1.0FS”>
<description>Star Wars (Data East 1992)</description>
<manufacturer>Data East</manufacturer>
<year>1992</year>
<type>SS</type>
</game>

I thought it had to be named identical to the ROM and Table name but I will try what you said.

The error message I have been receiving is:
Hyperpin

cannot find c:\pinsanity\visualpinball\tables\Star Wars (Data East 1992.fpt)

you had to install in wrong xml. Its looking for a FUTURE pinball table (.fpt) but you said you are installing a VISUAL pinball table. Open your future pinball xml and make sure that starwars data east 1992 is not in that xml but is in visual pinball.xml also make sure the table is in visualpinball\tables folder
