      No clue….it already happened on the 1st game 1st ball, all  directly within VPX (no frontend)

      I am on VPX 10.7Beta, may-be not the very very latest but about 2..3 weeks ago the latest, do not know if that could be a point.

        That’s a great addition: beautiful table and also that we are able to play such rare ones is :good:

         

        Did have the same as Roccodimarco:  at a certain moment 1 of the 2 balls dropped from the uptown alley on to the playfield and after that the games is totally lost_in_space :-)

        Did change X and Y to fit the table in my cab, did not change Z and used the updated nvram.

         

        Edit: tried some more time…most of the times it is working ok but also had it that 1 of the 2 balls went ‘through’ the end onto the upper deck in the left corner.

        But very nice table, thanks!

          It works, must be quick enough, table was tested, please stop looking for this and that…..just enjoyed ot

          Really matter if you press the start button what it says with credit or not, c’mon. We needed to rescript the sounds to match the film and muted the rom, please just be more appreciative. Specially if you have no idea how many paths were tried to reach this level.

          This kind of comments make me want to pull the table(s) immediately

          Sorry to hear that, as it is just released and V1.0 trying to help  by first testing and notice some things that might not be as they should be.

          Also said “minor detail ..” etc…so, don’t think your response is fair…

          But anyway, as also said, great  table and (as also said a lot of times and will do now as well) thank you for all your contributions.  :good:

            Update on playing, just a minor detail I noticed:

             

            1. when you have no credits and press start the voice says Congratulations, you are ofiicially ……same speech as if there are credits on the table and the table does start.
            2. although I pressed the left magnasave AND the lights were on nothing happened, ball drained and no ball return. I am sure I pressed the button quick enough on entry of the ball in the left inlane.

              Thanks to all involved in the Team, great job!!

              <edit> : thought the left kick back didn’t work, although the lichts are on meaning it is active but it didn’t do anything…just read you’ll need to press the le magnasave as well…ok, will try that :-)

              Thanks!

                  Like your alt_sound packages because they do improve the sound a lot AND they keep the original as close as possible :good: :good:

                    Thanks Goldchicco!

                    I gave it a try, changed it to full transparency:

                    I do think it looks more like the real machine but because with VP we miss the 3D information it’s confusing to see now whether the ball is on the lower or upper PF.

                    So….better to keep the plastic ‘white with light’ as original.

                    And yes, 5 degr slope is for me the best combination of speed and fun.

                    Thank you again for this table! :good:

                      For me unknown table but very much fun to play…those outlane_flippers … briliant :-)

                      I just wonder: the plastic of the upper PF is ‘milky’ white which makes it hard to see where the ball is going once it comes underneath from it.

                      When I look at the pictures of the machine at ipdb I see that plastic is very clear to see through.

                      Don’t know if it was done on purpose or if it’s a limitation of VPX.

                      And the machine is very very fast…so for me it was more fun to lower the slope of the PF with 0,5 degree, that did the trick.

                      Thank you guys for this special table! :good:

                        If the ball gets lost behind the green goblin after bouncing over the targets on the left the playfield;

                        Go to layer 4 and set Plastic3 to collidable (untick “Toy” under physics), we’ll put out a fix but I think that should sort it out.

                        Did the changes, had an intensive long 5-ball gameplay and no problems anymore where otherwise the problem occured very soon so it looks like it solved it,

                        thanks! :good:

                          Fan_tas_tic, thank you a lot!

                          Just noticed a thing/bug…whatever you want to call it:

                          On the left side, just above the left sling you have those 5 yellow inserts.

                          On several gameplays the ball ‘disappeared’ there (I suppose behind those 5 corresponding targets)

                          Can’t see it very well because view is blocked by that plastic with that person with purple ‘dress’ on it but ball disappears there and will not come back: table will do a ball search after some time but can’t find it.

                          Did not change the Z-value  (just XY to fit in my cab but that shouldn’t change it but I’m careful not touching the Z).

                          Looks and play though are fantasic! :good:

                            I have this ball shadow error more often (other tables).

                            I guess they all use the same sub_routine.

                            Problem occurs with me on multiball but not very often…can’t get grip on when it happens.

                            What works for me (just 1 click) is to disable the associated timer for the ball shadows so the routine never gets called.

                            Or just quote out all the routine, should also work but the best thing is to find out why this routine is causing very sometimes errors…

                              Thank you, love the game (since a log time already but it improved every time, :good: )

                              I’d like to report this:

                               

                              Pkickerhole: did work fine for a lot of games but then: I started multiball: 2 ball, 1 ‘golden’ and 1 normal.

                              The golden ball got into the pkickerhole and….stayed there.

                              I thought: cool…a feature…but then later the only ball remaining got lost so I was waiting for that trapped ball to kick in but…nothing.
                              So…no feature but bug?? :wacko:

                              Could only exit table.

                              May-be this has been reported earlier…I read something about a metal ramp to come up…but nothing here.

                              Other: current backglass: been reported I see but standard it’s like you’re seeing double (or like it’s a 3D version without having 3D glasses on…. ).
                              This 2nd image appears when the lights go on when starting the table.
                              So: first the BG is dark (without lights) and image is ok, then lights go on and a illuminated, 2nd image appears but not on the same location as the first making it a double. (tested today with the latest improved BG file.

                              I did read the solution for it but I just reverted to the older BG…works fine.

                              Thanks again for this great fun table!!

                                  Just played it a dozen times: Big Fun, Thank You!!!!!

                                  Very colorful and surprising table, great job already!

                                  Just a few minor comments:
                                  – ball save kick out (had some losses on left, right I do not know) : often not strong enough, ball bounces back, tries a second time…also no succes, ball drains and you’ll get it back from the ball save but would be better if it was shot into play directly as it was supposed to.

                                  – ultradmd: is working fine. However for pin2dmd: backgroundpixels are grey-white, this makes it very hard to read: better if the background would be black.

                                  – rules are not totally clear to me, would be nice to read or get instructions. I see them on the BG but what and where = what??   On BG I can see ..Spinners 5/30 bu it always stays on 5.. also: collect violet: 3 remains 20  How do I collect ‘violet?’ and should this value already change (or is it WIP?)

                                  Anyway: Big Smile from this table, thank you !! :good: :good: :good:

                                    Great ’80’s  table. Love the artwork and the quality of it, also BG is great, thanks!

                                    As mentioned before here: I also didn’t get ROM sounds, all other sounds were available.

                                    Took some time to figure out but:

                                     

                                    get the file “Pinmame romset (alternate set)” from IPDB  https://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=3458 and put that zip file (unzipped) in your ROM location where the other regular Star God rom is located as well.

                                    Start VPX, load game and get sound!

                                      Thank you for the table and the update, great to have one of the  ‘classics’ in such a good shape on the Vpin!

                                      Played it intensively tonight and I had 2 times a problem:

                                      1): ball lost:  shot the ball from right flipper direct to the upper right 3-color-target bank. You cannot see the targets but you can see the lights in front of those 3.

                                      The ball went directly and with a certain strong speed towards these targets and disappeared.

                                      As it happened in game play can not exactly say where it did disappear but as far as I could follow it was behind/left/right of this upper  3 targetbank

                                      2) other game: made ball lock, made that I ‘got away’ so MB was getting to get started and then a script error line 1924: out of range.

                                      Both problems were in different games but I played I think a 10 in total and the other ones no problem.

                                      After problem 2 I just quite out this line as it is something with ball_shadow…not that important.

                                      Anyway, again, thank you for the game & update! :good:

                                        Thanks!

                                        Nice to have in the cab: to remind us where ‘Pin-Ball’ really stands for ….

                                            First a big Thank You Scottywic for this great fun table!

                                            Really excellent FUN.

                                            Now…for those with micro-stutter problems:

                                            check your Force exclusive fullscreen box in the VPX Graphics setting.

                                            I had a lot of micro stutter everywhere and that all disappeared.

                                            Also it solved the no reaction to flipperbuttons in the minigame.

                                            :good: :good:
