      OXO (Williams 1973)

       

      OXO is a Williams tic-tac-toe table that has fun game play and excellent shots coupled with awesome Christian Marche artwork.  The basic premise is to achieve a tic-tac-toe with either X’s or O’s and then land the ball in either saucer for a 5000 point bonus and an extra ball.  Lighting all of the tic-tac-toe squares will enable a replay special with either the left or right middle roll overs.

       

      HauntFreaks has pulled out all of the stops on this one!  His artwork is incredible and the details that he added like primitive cut outs for the targets and leaf switches really enhance the table.  He has also made a new B2S backglass for the table that will also be available to download which also also has third monitor DMD artwork.

       

      This table has a few new features to it that include full integration of DOF for those who have chime units as well as a new (at least for my tables) post-it note with the ablility to enter initials.

       

      There are three user variables that can be altered to change the playing epxperience.  They are all located near the top of the script and include:

       

      FreePlay – set to True for free play or False if you want to coint up

      ShowBallShadow – set to True to turn on to enable ball shadows or to False to to deactivate them

      PinkFLipperColor- set to True to use pink rubbers on the flippers or set to False to use white rubbers.

       

      Here’s the tean that brought you this table

      Special thanks to Fren for his excellent VP9 OXO table that got this whole project started!

          Thanks Randr, for the time being the table is only available here so that I have only one site on which to make corrections if any bugs pop up from the initial downloads.  I had some problems with the Capersville table code and it was a royal pain to have too fix code on three sites.

          Your site has some very active EM guys so I’m hoping that they play this table a lot and try to break it any way they can so that the code can be as robust as possible.  HauntFreaks and I are hoping to build many more EM tables and all of my code is portable so these early editions like Capersville and OXO will make future versions more stable.

           

          I’m particularly excited about the chime code for this table.  I know that only a few guys have chime units but building these tables to take advantage of this technology will help push the realism of the simulations forward.

            Funny you mention that! I’m going to be installing a chime unit this winter!

              That’s very cool!  Bord has tested the code and it seems to be working well so I’m planning on revisiting the Capersville table and updating it to the new chime code as well as the new Post It note code so that players can also enter initials with their high scores.

                I’ll be testing out the chimes tonight when I get home.  Looking forward to it! Thanks guys!

                  Well. You are a inspiration to me. I hope some day I’ll be able to move over from doing private mods to where you are, releasing new VPX tables.

                  Congratulations once again for a job well done !

                    I remember playing this EM back in my early Future Pinball days. It has one of my favorite scoring rulesets for an EM. Thanks!

                          Guys, i don’t understand the complete Controller.vbs, but should be possible to Set 1 of 2 directb2s Files ?
                          What i mean is, to get a random directb2s ( the yellow or the green ) in Script …
                          Anything like this ?

                          Set Controller = CreateObject(“B2S.Server”)
                          B2SFile = int(rnd(1)*2)+1
                          If B2SFile = 1 Then Controller.B2SName = “OXO – green”
                          Else Controller.B2SName = “OXO – yellow”
                          End If
                          Controller.Run()

                              Those pink rubbers look great (as does the rest of the table, of course!). Beautiful job. Thanks!

                                I think that’s all handled in controller.vbs, @arngrim would be the one to answer that as he wrote it i believe, don’t know if trying to force one or the other in the table script would work.

                                Oh, and I’m sure bord will back me up on this, but if you like playing em’s and you have DOF and you don’t have chimes you are seriously missing out on some awesomeness.  Chimes would be last on the list to go if I ever had to cut things out.

                                Great fun table :good:   need to learn all the rules and how it works.

                                    Nice!  My recent Close Encounters and Solar Ride will hit the chimes too, as well as all those em’s.

                                      This looks fantastic downloading in a few min.

                                       

                                      Jeesus, so how much do I have to spend to get a chime unit?   F#$%# this expensive hobby! LOL

                                        Hey, absolutely beautiful table, thank you

                                        Just some thoughts :

                                        With ball shadows turned off – the ball crossing the rollovers displays a bright image under the ball

                                        If you change the balls from 5 -> 3 you need to change line 590 from

                                        if balls = 5 … to … if balls = balls

                                        Personal setup – was great to be able to hide the post it note on apron, simply commented out the entering initials sub, and postit sub – prefer a clean apron and displaying high score as player1 score on b2s.

                                        Thanks again !

                                          there is a much easier way to do this, all the controller initialization are done in the vbs, so you just need to define the right cGameName to the controller framework

                                          change cGameName from a Constant to a Dim and then:

                                          if B2SFile = 1 Then

                                          cGameName = “OXO – green”

                                          else

                                          cGameName = “OXO – yellow”

                                          end if

                                          and btw, i don’t have chime toys on my cab, i even shut down the chime mech sounds with the keys and dof menu of vp…  :whistle: :)

                                            so for this to work (remember i’m a big dummy) I would have to name the B2S files the same as the cGameName ?  ie  OXO – green and OXO – yellow
