You still around? Yes I am

What's up - email me Will do. I've been meaning to ask a favor of you.

Still making tables???

Well, I am working on a special request from someone who sent me the images for a bagatelle. Other than that, I'm sort of semi-retired.

John;

Got your email. Anyway, downloading PCLinuxOS KDE MiniMe (500mb) so I can fix a laptop for someone who wants to dump M$ windows for good. I'm all too happy to help this person!

My email will explain what I'm up to. You can always find me at:

www.pclinuxos.com

In the forums. Just find me: billy7720

I'm around!

Talk to ya soon pal!

I am currently working on "Electric Cyclone" for you. I have a "keypress" that allows you to play the original OR cleaned up PF image. So far everything seems to be working, but I'll need a playtest soon. Let me know.

You know I'm ready to test hat one Will. I'm less interested in the playfield image than I am with the problems we've both been working on with the game play and balls through the wall. Although I'm no longer making any tables, I'll always be available to test any of your tables. I'm glad to see you back working on VP, since I know you do enjoy it. Just do it for yourself, since you know you won't get much if any feedback.

Let me know EXACTLY where the balls were falling through the game please. I have NEVER had that problem with Electric Cyclone, but rest assured if it's there I want to fix it. As for the the PF cleanup, that was my idea and it looks great. I'll send you an email with the two pics; the original and the cleaned up pic in a zip. You can switch between the original image or cleaned up image during gameplay.

Wait till you see 3 in 1 :) You'll really flip over it. I redrew "The Deuce Is Wild" so that's there along with "Spiral Golf" and "Bat-A-Ball" all on one screen. Heavy Hitter V3 for VP9 has been totally redone; new backglass and a cleaned up PF image. I've also refixed Monicker by Bally for VP9. Plays great. I'll send em' all to ya soon.

Anyway, PLEASE post below and let me know where exactly where the balls are falling through. More than likely by the "slapper" area which in all actuality should only allow no more than 2 balls at one to be hit from the slapper. Let me know.

Good to know you're around pal. Hope to hear from you soon.

PS: As for feedback, I don't care. I have more goodies that is NOT listed that are WIP. We can enjoy them together

Yes, at the Slapper Area. And though it's been years, do did fuss at the time about the ball through wall issue in that area.

I figured that's where the problem was. What limit would you like on the amount of balls allowed to be hit by the slapper? Let me know and I can isolate this problem and then the game will run.

Seems like either two or three is what the game probably called for. They should collect in a mini-stack waiting for a ball to be hit into the triggering tube up at center top. As they sit there, they tend to merge together, and then get lost in the wall.

Alright, give me a few days. I'll make it stack three high. If more than three are there, I'll have the game remove the ball so you have to reshoot another. No problem guy.

Just a peep at some goodies Thought you might like to see I do have some games 98% finished. Electric Cyclone is next on my top priority list. Enjoy John :) Let me know if you would like these sent to you. Should have them done VERY soon.

Yoyo, 1932 by Klebba has two layers for the balls to actually run like the real thing.

Heavy Hitter, 1948 by Bally has a new backglass and I redrew the playfield. I've also made the game a bit tougher with some great skill shots! This game was redone using PCLinuxOS KDE 2011. Works in both PCLinuxOS AND Windows.

3 in 1 (part 1) has The Deuce Is Wild (redrawn), Spiral Golf and Bat-A-Ball on a single screen.

(3 in 1 part 2 is also coming) (Merry-Go-Round, Vest Pocket Basketball and Scotch Golf)

I also have plans for a 3 in 1 part 3!
