        ok…. so this is what it is… you can see someone had gone in and tried to make the colors solid at one point….
        first you need to remove the JPG artifacts… I use photoshop but you could try this https://www.imgonline.com.ua/eng/remove-jpeg-artifacts.php
        then I make another copy and I turn that to black and white (not just greyscale) this layer goes over the the original and set to “darken” in PS
        I also vectorized the layer that had the artifacts removed…. this created the solid colors… https://www.autotracer.org/
        because this is bad to start with… it would really need all the text reset… and the black outlines redrawn in a vector program

              Hey guys, I have the latest beta build, vpinmame, and SAM build. But for some reason I get error “variable undefined: ‘InitVpmFFlipsSAM’.”

              I have tried running the latest Tron table which also uses Fast Flips and that works, so am I not sure what is happening here. the version of Tron I am running is Tron-Legacy-Stern-2011-G5K-2.2 from Monster Bash.

              VPX: 3490

              VPinMAME 3.1

              SAM Build r4603.

              I ran the install via the setup menu after putting everything in its place.

              this is the weirdest part of all you were using rev 3490 and the final version is 3490…… very odd…

                Thanks, I have installed that vbs file, but I still get the same error.

                sounds like you have all that’s needed ….. it might be one of those one off things…

                  Jesperpark I’m happy of hearing that from u, I only added my grain of sand, but I started changing only some silly stuff, and ended spending a lot of unexpected time on it. I do not care much (usually I do table changes only for myself), but since the last time I checked +250 downloads on this last update, and only 3 said thanks/commented something, I’m a curious person and I like the feedback and knowing if u liked the changes more than raising the ego.

                  I also want to say thanks to all the original authors, the other contributors, and specially to HF for helping me, for all the conversation (or at least I tried with my bad english), and for releasing my modifications (feels bad when someone ignores u, and It would not be the first time).

                  this is one of the oldest issues with the hobby, there is a core groups of people that play and are the same that give thanks… 95% of the people that DL tables do it with the mindset there downloading from a mindless bot that makes this stuff….(a thanks goes a long way) I’ve gotten over this over the years because I don’t see it changing… It does however go up my ass when you contribute and the unloader doesn’t try their best to include everyone to all involved, I do understand this can be a daunting task , but at least make an effort…

                    yes… when people are looking to buy these kits, find the one that has no circuit board with it, it will save you a few dollars…

                      I can make the texture opaque and it will fix the seams

                        Thanks Draifet. I’ve already set the hammer to be invisible. The issue I’m having is the ball on the playfield that is normally not seen as it’s behind the hammer. And that ball is constantly turning and rollig and twitching. Which is not cool. ;)

                        do mean the ball is shuttering? <—– this would be your setup or settings
                        or the light reflections? <—–if you dont like these, you can turn them off   (but there part of the realism)

                          Thanks for the update Haunt. The table is almost perfect, but there’s still something odd going on with the grave cross (or is it just me?): it’s texture seams look transparent and they flicker when the cross moves. Also, I like to have the hammer set to non visible (I just don’t like the looks of it, even in the real table) so the ball under it is visible. Can I make it not roll and move about constantly? Sparky is also twitching a bit all the time. I wonder if physics could be tweaked so that both the ball and Sparky would keep still when nothing touches them?

                          Sorry to nitpick small details, but this is one of my favorite tables and I really would love it to be perfect. :bye:

                          the cross I haven’t a clue what you mean, sorry… would need video…
                          this is the Monsters Premium version of the table and the hammer is part of the Premium
                          sparky jiggling is his head is on a light spring…. if it never stops you might have your nudge sensitivity too high

                          BUT remember because we are all using VPX, you can make the table look and act anyways you like….

                            I used Tom and Ninnu’s Twilight Zone 2.1 table…. took each image and toned them to a grayscale that matched that particular image, then each light and flasher was adjusted, to keep the table warm enough to look like the real BW version…. all this was a bigger undertaking then I first thought… but it came out pretty nice
                            the table and B2S can be found on the Monsterbash website
                            here are the links…

                                    because this is so well rethemed… I’m sure we can get a modded rom released… to it will be in the official VPM list…


                                    @Watacaractr
                                    look into modding the rom to match the theme, its not hard… but I dont do it enough to tell you how to do it…

                                        first, many thanks for this table. I ran into a problem while playing some balls: the ball entered the left ramp but fall off. please see attached picture.

                                        this happened to me as well once. would be great if it can get fixed

                                        something else I have never seen happen , I have test played the table 100’s of times… and one of the few tables i play because i enjoy it…
                                        will need more confirmation from other plays this is happening….

                                          ok, so dude, you say you got to play a monsters premium, but.. umm I’m sure I see boobs in that video? and are you blonde now?

                                          oh I took a trip to Brazil a couple months ago got me some new cheap big titties, and thought pink hair would go nice with them… I’m Brenda now…

                                            so I have heard thru grapevine people complaining about the “physics” of the table… floaty ball and other nonsense… I’m not the builder that created the physics , but it has always played good for me…. so I was a pretty lucky guy, today I got to play a real “monsters premium” machine…. here is video proof how the ball “really” plays
                                            yes the ball really moves this slow and “floaty” …. so if anything the “fake” version plays way to fast!! and not floaty….  I’ll make an even bolder statement… non of our fake tables play like there real counterparts…. its just a fact, VP is just its own animal….
