The Simpsons Pinball Party

Really proud! Today I achieved a 90 odd million .. don't know what I did, don't know how I got to it!
At one moment there were martians in play .. fantastic!

'Grand Champion' (I know it's only the beginning if I compare it to other highscore => but if I can remember correctly, TheMcD was proud of his 90 mio not too long ago! => or was it on Attack From Mars?

Anyway it was a good game, thanks JP & Groni and I must say I'm quite getting to love this game after playing the real thing last week!

Wow, I can barely get a 50 million score on this table. Congratulations with the grand champion

Yeah to be honest I find this the hardest of tables to play and get a good roll going

Never mind about the ruleset .. don't try to understand!
As Groni said earlier, you have to study them to make something of it .. may be one day!

ps. So my score wasn't too bad at all??

Well, I finally got a decent hiscore, got 3 extra balls, managed to get alien invasion too, but I did not understand what to do

Well, to learn that, try this

Much Fun

Thanks for the tip Groni, I will save that txt file and read it

Thanks Groni!
If I look at Bowen's highscore (1,6 billion) I'm very close to it!
Let's study the ruleset to get to the last 60 million ..

I've put the ruleset on RS for download in convenient .pdf format:

Rulesheet for Stern - The Simpsons Pinball Party]

Thank you FD! Helpfull File!

I was editing the Sheet in German with a nice Layout. I will try to do the same
in English, when i have the Time for that

Here you can watch it, even if you dont understand one Word

Good job Groni, I also like the layout .. very sophisticated!

You have a nice bunch of high quality pics of TSPP there .. taken from your friends table? Very nice!

Ich habe kein Problem zu sprechen und zu lesen in der Deutschen Sprache .. I'm originaly from Holland remember (next to Germany) ..

The Pics in the Rulesheet are from the Manual CD. Only with that Manual we was able to create that high quality Table. Ok, and the pics of my friend needs alot So he have about 20 Pinball Tables. Many stuff there to come

I don´t speak dutch very well But great you understand German

Have a nice Day

GRONI

I finally broke the 100 million barrier:

Ok, so here you have the Next Challenge

TuNk77 fantastic score .. met any martians?
Groni, no comment .. Wauw!!

Oh my god! That's a really great hiscore I might be able to beat that score, just gotta learn the rules and practice more, he he.

@ Flying Dutchman: Hmm, no, haven't met any of them lately

I like that pinball '2-screen' scenario Groni (cabinet + backglass)

May be an outdated question, how do you achive such setup?
- an extra screen for the backglass is far as my knowledge goes at the moment ..

It´s simple

One GraphicCard with 2 Monitor Ports.

Then i created a simple Powerpoint Presentation and chossed "Show on Monitor 2" in the options. Save the PPS, and from now on the PPS always opens on my second Monitor. Then i created an exe file, that close the PPS when no Visual Pinball Player is open. Now you just need to tell VP how to use these.
i created a Sub in the Script, that tells the PPS to load on Table Load, and added a line on the Table Init that puts the DMD on the Second Monitor

Simple isn´t it

GRONI

Thanks Groni .. as soon as I got my hands on an extra monitor I'll give it a go!

Do you have your 'already created' .ppt files from the backglasses of the tables you use available for download, so that I do not have to invent 'the wheel' twice?

Thanks again!

I got some fantastic backglass examples (from 20 odd tables in total) from 'Lord H.' which I could use & put in a .ppt file right?

ps. save the powerpoint as a 'Powerpoint Template' instead of the normal/regular .ppt format?
pps. If I do a 'save as' within the powerpoint I can not find an 'option' tab to choose to load an the second screen?

Improved my highscore a tad:

I'll stop playing altogether!
Fantastic score TuNk77!

I can send the Backglasses i have to you. It´s an PPT File. So it opens in Kiosk mode a start showing. I have Power Point 2007 so maybe the Settings are different. I can chose from the Dialog Menu, on which Monitor i want to have the Backglass.

Hi Groni, if theres any chance of getting your backglasses also it would be great!

I have Lord H's ones and a few of my own but I think yours would be the best quality.

Thanks!

Thanks Groni, I found the 'Presenter view' for the use of two monitors .. now it's the waiting for the link to download the backglasses!

No without kiddin' it would be much appreciated!

Thanks again ..

Groni, are you still there??

Oh Sorry I forget about that Thread I will put them up this Evening.
I just have a Few.
