Solid State Machines
Birthday Edition.

script updated August 2023


' *** Version 1.2***
' New Additions
' - New Voice tracks (TTS unfortunately) and redid all music routines and code. Voices are randomized on certain features.
' - New controlling routines for better music management, and better timing routines.
' - Future versions of fpxEngine will be based on this script as opposed to it's own code. (after a major cleanup of course)
' - Modified a couple AddScoringEvent routines for a better playing experience
' - BAM version needs to be 280 or higher
' - If you have headphones, you will hear the 2nd background. This was in the previous version, just forgot to mention it.
' - Some new music changes

' shivaFlipper v4 Changes
' - Code rewritten to be simplier and improved performance. Game play, especially base flipper shots now slightly stronger. Full effect variable coil now added
' - Middle Trigger replaced with optoTrigger. Walls reshaped to adjust ball flow and shots
' - Variable coil now present throughout full flipper swing
' - Flippers moved and now shoot slightly different. This is due to a new FlipperRotationChart
' - shivaFlipper presets have been changed internally. (shivaFlippersPresetCase=4)
' - Strength of the flippers made a bit stronger, with slightly stronger base shots. Due to the new Flipper rotationalChart, tap passes may be a bit tougher to do now.
' - Variable coil preset changed to be a bit less sensitive, but still very sensitive.
' - Custom Bounce control changed to less bouncy, more realistic Bally type flippers. Set AddfpxBounce to a max of 10 ifd you want more bounce.
' - Top RightFlipper redone to match other flippers
' - Improved performance of the walls and fixed any issues, adjusted ball angle off flipper. New error correction code added.

' Rule changes
' - Changed a couple routines so the game now scores lower! Game now set to 5 balls, and 1500000 for the first replay. You can change this in User Adjustments
' - Loop shots changed. Both loop shots advance a letter. Right loop will now score advancing value as well. The Left will score the star trigger value. Fixed double scoring issue.

' Other changes
' - The game has several new settings in User adjustments so you can customize the table to your liking. This incudes shivaFlippers, fpxEngine, and the pinsettings.
' - ShivaFlippers has simplified settings for flippers as several settings are no longer needed due to new Variable coil system (EOS)
' - high score display only shows if a actual high score is made.
' - Minor physics changes. Fixed dead play areas, adjusted loop shot so ball is faster on loop etc. Never thought this game could get more fun, but it did.

Plus a whole bunch of things I forgot to write down
A new version of Jungle Girl fpx has been released. Version 1.1, this fixes a error that could cause the table to crash, and has some minor script cleanup. There is also a small adjustment with the flipper settings.

Also included are some new files with the resources, a different wheel image, and the images you can insert for those with 4k monitors. Thanks to everyone for their input and I hope everyone enjoys the game.

    I’m looking for Contact (1933, Williams)

  • A (Guest) Alena:
    (AI prompt) is contact available (1933 version)?

  • ChatGPT @ ChatGPT:
    @, As of my knowledge cutoff in 2023, the 1933 version of the film "Contact" does not exist. It seems there might be a confusion with the title or the year. The well-known film "Contact" is a science fiction drama released in 1997, directed by Robert Zemeckis and starring Jodie Foster and Matthew McConaughey. It is based on the 1985 novel of the same name by Carl Sagan.

    If you are looking for a different film from 1933 or a film with a similar title, please provide more details so I can assist you better. If you are indeed referring to the 1997 film "Contact," it is widely available on various streaming platforms, DVD, and Blu-ray.

    New to FP. I'm on Linux and using Lutris. Have installed FP from the Lutris repo. It does not have BAM support so I can only play non-BAM tables. Some of the tables show up w/o a playfield image...how do I fix that?
