ok, let me clarify something. Im no pinball pro I play for fun. Most people dont even realize there is a theme and goals and that you can in a way beat the table. FP is better but I think vp is easier and, as I said, seems a lot less graphic demanding.
I build my cab for fun, changing the physics make the table easier.
I spent 6 months toying with FP and FOR MY PLAYSTYLE some of the tables were unplayable.
Elm street plays better for me with the p2.6 rather than the p2.7 and when I mentioned changing rhe physics a fraction or a tenth, its not because they were set wrong, its because it made the table easier. Changing the table height makes the table faster, but is pointless if the flippers dont have the power to shoot the ramps, or the gravity is so heavy the ball seams like a dead weight.
and thanks George, I know he updated his tables, Im pretty sure I have all the available updates, p2.6 and p2.7 and flipper power does usually make playing easier, but I found sometimes a heavier ball and less friction, even a minute bit, leaves the table as close to the creators design. Hopefully the people making the tables know more about this than I do.
I usually load a table and same the xml with bam, then I tweak it, or tweak the script
<ball newtonDamping="0" mass="26.01" gravity="4199.9" damping="0.258"></ball>
I change the script for more plays, changing the standard mass a tad from 26 to 26.01 lowering the gravity from 5000.0 and damping from .256 to .258 made a world of difference without changing the height or flipper mass or omega.
anyways, just dodging a bullet here and Im pretty sure its going off topic. And btw you cant even compare premiers elmstreet to slams,
