@rawd   Great work on this and your other VR tables.  I’ve already spent way too much time with Space Station, but absolutely love it!

I saw your posts I think on VPForums about using flashers for the reels.  If you’re interested, acronovum has primitive reels he uses on some of his FSS tables.  I used them on Jive Time which is VR ready (wor…[Read more]

This table is awesome and plays really well, except for one thing…

For some reason, the ball will never go below the table. There are 4 holes in the table for the ball to drop down out of site for a moment, but none of them work at all.

I’m running a 2 screen cabinet.

Anyone else seen this and know of a fix?

Sounds like you…[Read more]

Another great release. I didn’t know you in the old days @herewh but sure glad you’re back and delivering high quality tables!

Yep, thanks wildman. Very nice.  I agree with the loafer, there are much worse backglasses out there.  Hot Shots comes to mine.  Although shannon’s alternate backglass makes it look pretty awesome.

I’ve not had any issues with download speeds.  I’m getting 100-200MB files in under a min.  Site it popping up quickly when I’m browsing too.

Great work bord! Since you’re off work today, now would be a good time to write up your 2019 brag entry.

Oh no – was I too humble this year?

I did read that, LOL.  Yes!  Much too humble!

Great work bord!  Since you’re off work today, now would be a good time to write up your 2019 brag entry.

If you want it buy it! I would offer less though.

You will never play same pin over and over for very long thats why most collectors like myself have many real pins its just human nature to get bored with it after a couple weeks. Heck thats why i love VP play a bunch of tables without getting off stool and never get bored :) Nothing…

One of my least favorite things to do for my job is go back a tell my boss all the great things I did in the last year.  One, because I think I’m pretty awesome and he should already know that.  And two, I like to focus on the now and hate having to dig through all my files and emails to remember everything I worked on.  But I’ll do it for ev…[Read more]

Lots of pics on their website. The machines are all really nice. I talked to the owner tonight and hes a really nice guy that loves to talk pinball.

How did I not know about this place?!  I know where I’ll be going the next time I’m in town.

Love these senseless!

I’ve had no issues here.  Just downloaded Earthshaker in 37.37 seconds.

I did a little tinkering with this today.  I’m 90% certain this is a plunger issue and not a mesh playfield issue.  If I drop the Momentum Xfer down to 1 (from 2), I can’t replicate the issue.  Also, it seems to happen as you’re drawing the plunger back and the ball is contacting the plunger.

Setting the release speed to 180, the stroke length to…[Read more]

Wow!

Thanks for the info Bord. I’ve done a few pf mesh and I’ve seen what Rob warned you about – though often it has been when I trap a ball on the flipper. I’ve seen cases where the flipper is held in and when I let go it is getting stuck on button release. Does not happen very often though and a small nudge will get it loose. I haven…

You can visually move them, but if you turn on collisions you’ll find that VP will only handle collisions at the original position. So if I make a moving ramp and set it collidable, the ball will always follow the trajectory of its original position. You can only turn collision on and off. For the ramp case, most VP tables will f…

Thanks senseless. These are awesome!

I’m wondering if this one is better hosted at vpuniverse with the link option here?

Changes look good!

This is an absolutely fantastic table.  A blast to play.  These performance issues aren’t always easy to find, so I’m happy to help.  I’ve sent my changes over to Brian to be included in his next release.  Thanks Brian for your continued creativity and contributions to the hobby!  Your work is very much appreciated!

I did some testing on my desktop.  I see the stutter there that you’re talking about.  I did a quick review of the table and I found several performance drains:

• There are a couple of timers with an interval of ‘0’.  Not sure how VP handles this, but setting them to 10 is plenty fast and reduces the script load.
• The arrangement of physics ob…
