      This is a template table I use mainly for parts to copy and paste, but also for script to copy and paste into new EM table builds.  I thought it might be useful for someone if they wanted to start building tables.

      This is geared for Gottlieb tables with Gottlieb flippers, bumper caps, kicker hole and sounds. It has example parts and script for many common things like targets, drop targets, kicker hole, bumpers, animated rubbers, etc.

      Primitives from Dark, zany, sliderpoint, hauntfreaks, bord and others.

      Also contains my option menu setup (thanks gnance and loserman76 for the idea) with changeable instruction and replay cards based on the options menu settings.

      Contains my modified ninuzzu’s ball shadow script.

      High score sticky note scripting borrowed from mfuegemann’s Fast Draw table, with my own images.

      Setup with surround sound scripting (not perfect, but it’s in there).

      This is certainly not the only way to do any of this, and there are probably better ways to do a lot of it, but it is a start :)  I will try to keep things up to date as vp gets updated, but no promises.

      Note also this is a 42″ table template for later Gottlieb EM’s and could also be used for a system 1 base (same size) but the scripting would be totally different and probably easier to start with an existing system 1.  This could fairly easily be made into a earlier 41″ Gottlieb table by resizing in Dimensions and Slope and moving the lower 1/3 up.

          Cool. Easier for me get to the point where I’m begging you to fix my EM scripts.

            Once I figured out how to do this based on the roach scripting I did for CARtoons, it was actually surprising simple to animate the bumper skirts.  Of course you will need to turn off the built in skirts and add a primitive to make this work, but I don’t see any reason @toxie and/or @fuzzel couldn’t add this simple bit of code to the next version of VPX so that the built in bumper skirt would animate.  Someone may even figure out a better way to do it with more smarter math ability than I have.  It’s not hugely noticeable unless you are looking for it, but just another little realism detail.

              Just did another quick update that fixes the sling arm scaling and rotation so it works much better now as well, details in changelog.  Sorry, didn’t notice earlier.

                  I mostly just use this for resources to copy and paste into other tables as I work on them, so I keep adding things to it.
