Great Table! thanks for the work! This brings back lots of memories for me!
I tried to change your theme songs in the sound manager to fit the intro song from my country (Quebec / Canada). I can’t seem to be able to change it even if I reimport the french intro song from my computer? Is the music in the rom?
To replace a sound on the table you have to have your file with the same name to replace and in .wav format.
Cheers, Javier..

Was there ever a rulesheet available for this table?
Metal Slug Rules:
1) Lock, Multiball, & Jackpot:
Completing the METAL SLUG drop targets will light all 4 kickers for ball lock (greenblinking lights). Locking a ball will spot the characters MARCO, TARMA, ERI, & FIO at the bottom of the playfield. After locking all 4 balls, and thus lighting all 4 characters, a round of 4 ball multiball will start. During multiball, shooting the upper left kicker will score a 300,000 point jackpot. Only one jackpot can be scored per round of mulitball. Multiball ends when 3 of the 4 balls have drained.
2) WEAPON targets:
Completing the WEAPON targets advances the WEAPON value. Shooting the left side loop shot when lit will reset the WEAPON targets. Completing the target bank 7 times scores an extra ball.
3) POW (Prisoner of War) Lanes:
Completing the top 3 POW lanes advances the POW bonus value. At the end of the ball, this value is multiplied by 10,000 points and is added to your score.
4) Captive Ball:
Completing the 3 drop targets and hitting the stationary target with the captive ball will advance the POW bonus value. Hitting any of the 4 targets with the captive ball will relight MISSION START if it not lit already.
5) Missions:
Metal Slug features 5 missions (more commonly known as “modes”), and a FINAL MISSION wizard mode. MISSION START is lit at the start of each ball and can be relit by hitting the captive ball. All 3 of the lower kickers will start a mission if lit (red blinking lights). Any Mission in progress will end if the ball is lost.
MISSION 1: During Mission 1, all drop targets on the playfield, including the WEAPON targets and the targets in the captive ball area score 20,000 points. This is a 30 second mission.
MISSION 2: During Mission 2, the WEAPON targets will animate in a programmed sequence of popup and popdown. Hitting any of the targets will score 40,000 points. This is a 30 second mission.
MISSION 3: During Mission 3, the jet bumpers score 5,000 points each. This Mission is not timed, and ends only after 20 jet bumpers have been hit.
MISSION 4: During Mission 4, you must rescue 3 POWs. Completing the POW lanes or hitting the stationary target in the captive ball area will resue a POW. This Mission is not timed and ends only after 3 POWs have been rescued.
MISSION 5: During Mission 5, you must defeat Sgt. Allen O’neill, the recurring enemy in Metal Slug. Like Mission 2, the WEAPON targets will animate in a programmed sequence of popup and popdown. Hitting any of the targets will take away 1 energy from Allen. You must hit him 5 times to defeat him. This mission is not timed, and will only end after you defeat Allen O’neill.
FINAL MISSION: The FINAL MISSION is a 5 ball multiball wizard mode. Everything is lit during this mission – Jackpot, 20,000 point drop targets, 2X POW bonus value, and 5,000 point jet bumpers. The machine will automatically save any multiballs lost within the first 45 seconds of the FINAL MISSION. After that, any multiballs lost will remain lost. Final Mission ends when all 5 balls drain after the saver has expired. Losing the last ball does NOT count as a lost ball, but does end the FINAL MISSION. The machine will then show a small ending show and play a musical interlude. Then it will reset and start again at Mission 1.

I apologize friends for not being able to answer your questions at this time, my father has serious health problems a while ago and for that reason I am not very active.
Working in VP has always been like a therapy and in recent days I have been able to work on some projects that I have but I don’t know if I will be able to continue doing it until this situation with my father is over. I make this clarification so that they understand the reason for my absence.
As for this table .. an update that has Nail Buster will be released shortly.
Cheers, Javier..

Well I think I will end the DMD issue and leave it simple, I will continue with the music and then release a beta that will surely be the final version.

I refer to the DMD images that are in the FP version, from what I saw earlier in other tables they are placed in the list of images, in this table there is nothing related to the DMD, what I see is that there are sources in that section of the editor but what I want to know is how to convert those sources in FP format to a common source format

Can someone explain to me how to extract the FP frames, in the editor you have an option but in the case of this table I don’t see anything, the PinUPPlayer DMD is already functional and little by little I understand how it works but I was stuck in the creation of the frames shown in the FP version.
If someone can explain it to me I would appreciate it.

Little by little I am incorporating the PinUPPlayerDMD.
It is a new field for me but little by little I understand its operationÂ"Learning without thought is vain, thought without learning is dangerous." (Confucius)

Hi Javier,
Don’t know if these will help?
These are the ogg files directly from the table – sorted into folders.

I already have those .ogg files and they work in .wav but the ones I need are those that come separately from the table. thank you anywayÂ
Funny, I was playing around with this on FP in VR the other day (updating the physics to use new BAM Dynamic Physics, lighting, shadowmaps, etc just the other day…
…but I know for a fact that MANY people have been asking for this table on VP for YEARS, so you will make MANY people happy with this one Javier!
…and this would inspire me that much more to make a Goonies pup-pack.
Yes, I know, many people asked me to bring this table to VPX.
I’m working slow but I’m fanning, my PC is giving blue screens more often and that makes me forget to save changes every 5 minutes and I lose everything, it’s serving me to exercise memory because I have to remember what I had done hahaha.
But I still enjoy working on this kind of original tables."Learning without thought is vain, thought without learning is dangerous." (Confucius)

I agree Terry. FP is useful for resources
I was referring to this quote from Javier.
“DStruct for sharing the FP resources”
Those same quotes have also come from JP Salas and other VP authors.
So I was only saying that many of these VP tables are using resources taken directly from FP tables (many people don’t know this). So even if you hate FP… the work from MANY of those FP authors has been a benefit to the VP community.
That’s a good thing.
DStruct, Romm, Francisco and other FP authors have a lot to do with my tables, as you say Terry if it were not for them some VP tables would not be recreated by the few resources.
Austin Powers, Simpsons DE, Big guns, CSI And .. I’m sorry but there are so many tables that I do not remember all of them in which they agreed to give away the resources to be able to recreate them in VP.TO ALL OF THEM I AM ETERNALLY GRATEFUL !!!Â

I’m very .. how to say, I think that excited or enjoying making this table, it is very simple the game but the idea of the author incorporating the Mini game to an original table .. simply extraordinary!
I do not know why the page does not let me insert the video.
Sorry for the quality of the video is the most that I support my work PCÂ

1 user thanked author for this post.
As mentioned above, the bad thing about the playfield is that the other objects do not have reflections. At the Sonic table until the last moment before releasing it I had primitive playfield but I decided to remove it for that little detail.
With 10.6 you can have a mesh playfield w/ reflections. It has been one of the best recent VP features, IMO.
LolÂ
I have overlooked and I have not seen it jajja
ok i’m going to see that and forget what i said earlierÂ

what I do is create a table in FP and then import that table to blender, that way I can create the holes, playfield and other objects to import into VPX.Â

I don’t know if this fixes the above bug but here is a fix for the 3 screen DMD
it had an extra reel
I included a PIN2DMD friendly version that has the reels resized to match the resolution of 128×32

ok, I added Dim TotalGamesPlayed, also removed FPVPX copy from script folder and now it works…
but what is wrong with the font in backglass? it is a bug or feature? ;)
I’m sorry but I could not try the Backglass, my PC that I work with is very small and if I force it a lot it gives blue screen . If someone can solve it, I will be grateful Â
