'Now In Production: Twilight Zone!'

Why is it I'm all thrilled and looking forward to this release??

i have the version of scapino now.
This one looks very net and is very nicely done
It has only one : but....
But I have to brighten my monitor to the max to see all the details.....
Haven't got this with your tables jpg. All tables are good and have a rich detail.
Greetings from holland,

I'm really looking forward to the day this table has a release.
JPG-pins FTW

This table is going to blow us away with JP and Groni at the helm. I also can't wait for this table, I love everything about this table it is one of Bally's best tables and they had a lot of them. Guys take your time and amaze us make us go absolutly ga ga over it. Dave P. P.S. I already know it will be a winner i can picture it right now in my head, it feels kinda wierd maybe i'm in The Twilight Zone right now.

Well, it will take a long Time since it will be released, cause Things changed VP9 is out, and we both played with all the Settings. I have played the whole Night with the settings of the flippers. they are awesome. And the new transparent ramps do work very good. Lots of usefull new features. VP9 still need some upgrades. The performance is bad, since Destruk said he used the wrong sourcecode to compile it. So i guess the next update will be much faster, and the overlapping emreels are included.
And when this time has come, you will see the best TZ ever, cause from now on, JPG-PINS uses VP9, and this is going to be great

So stay tuned, and keep posting and visiting this forum, and you will see some real new nice tables on the brandnew VP9 Engine

Greetings

Hi Groni, does it means that all authors must update their tables for VP9 or can we play in the future all tables with VP9, without any update

Thanks

Every Table has to be updated, since the physics in VP9 are completely new. The Flipper has to be adjusted, also all the ramps, cause the new Ball Dimension of VP9 is wider.

But JPG-PINS Tables are not so much yet. So i guess when VP9 Bugs are solved, and the Engine works fine, then we will make TZ, and after that a big VP9 Conversion of all JPG-PINS will begin. So every of our Tables will have a whole lot better Gameplay, and of course better Speed, since VP9 is DX9 compatible.

Thanks for your reply ! It sounds very interesting !

I can't wait for all this new stuff i hope Destruk figures it out quickly so we can have the best pinball tables in the world, and no ball through the flipper sounds great to me. Dave P.

well all the flippers are invisible as isthe plunger! that is with the 'new' table too! I tried my wip's but with no flippers I couldn't really play it isthis a fixable bug by me or is it deep within the coding? will itget resolvedsoon as right now nothing i have is playable on it.

Sound really great! I'm sure we will see the best VP9 tables from this team. I'm definitely excited about the possibilities and can't think of anyone more capable of getting the most from this new toy than the both of you.

This is really exciting...the combination JPG+VP9 its like a dream!

The new feature of rotating tables for use in cabinets is most appealing.

At this early stage, can anybody tell me if we will be able to rotate the tables with a few simple clicks (i.e Future Pinball Arcade Mode) or would it still be complicated as it has been with VP6 etc?

Thanks!

As long as i own a real TZ i am patient.

I´ll install VP9 (a complete second install beside the "old"),
so i can enjoy all tables that exist and those who come in the future.

esoteric_rt .. there's a program called 'Pivot_Pro' for rotating a screen which is very effective and very easy in use ..

Please find below the RS link:

Pivot Pro 7.68

Also some more info on VP9 => as you can see 'table-rotation' is included ..

rudy111 .. Pivot Pro rotates your screen (90-180-360) and so enables you to play Pinball in a 'Vertical Way'.

VERTICAL way eh? can i see a screenshot of it?

nvm i wanted to see wat it looked like because i had alot of space taken up and i just got alot more space now
