    look marvelous! too bad i don’t have space in my cab to put ledstrip on top of the main screen, and i have no plans to rebuild a cab.. :) the animation on the 4th screen on twd is really great, how does it work? is it a video in a loop? back 2 years ago we discussed with Swisslizard to extend the dof functionalities, we wanted to add SOUND feedback, like every sound from a rom has an ID, we wanted to add feedback when a certain sound is played from the rom, like when in addams family, the jackpot sound is played, you assign a J A C K P O T effect to your lesdstrip :) The blocking point was B2S.Server which can’t intercept the sound id from the rom and make it available to the backglass and dof, we tried hard to get herweh to release the source code, without success. BUT we have the source code now, just that Swisslizard is too busy to do it and i don’t know, don’t have the energy to investigate into it, so if someone wants to try to extend B2S.Server to pass sound ids, then you will be able to add even more specific feedback based on what is played ;)

     

    That would be VERY cool to be able to have access to sound files triggers.

     

    With my FP DOFLinx mods, I’m adding in DOF feedback and lighting effects directly into the script, so it allowed me full control over EVERYTHING, which is why I was able to do some really cool stuff with that. The only problem with that…is if the table gets updated often (cough…cough, SLAMT1LT  ;)   ), then you need to add all that code in again. Some of the DOFLinx mods I do have 3000 to 5000 lines of code added in…. but I’m getting alot smarter with how I added in code now.

     

    With VP DOF, and the DOF Config Tool…. the process is fairly simple, and if the table is updated then, you don’t have to update your feedbackl or effects to make it work which is really nice.

     

    I should have a demonstration of ACDC LE up sometime today. It’s not 5 flashers emulation….its a whole lot of coolness!

    ….oh and the Walking Dead video is a Topper video…a new feature in Pinball X. Here’s a video that shows off alot of that feature off….
