Hi Jason

Welcome Just to get you started I'd point you to:
http://digitalpinballfans.com/showthread.php/898-Graphical-glitch?highlight=Gorgar+artwork
...as it's not had much <3

Seems top rail's missing in ALL versions inc. Consoles...
Does FS' RL Gorgar have this missing in comparison with IPDB's or TNT's (below)?

At this point it might be beneficial to create an art specific section on the forums. Its a big forum now and this might help him to focus.

An art forum would be awesome. I am going to do my best to answer any questions and fix the bugs as we find them. Thanks everyone for all the support and feedback.

Hi Jason. I just wondered why totan is still a blocky low res mess at the bottom of the table where the art is below each flipper. I mentioned this back before the game was even released and norm said it would be sorted. It still isn't. Any reason why?
Fantastic work by the way. respect due.

An art section in this forum would be indeed a good idea.

I love that the devs are reading the threads. The pinball community here is such a great group, very supportive, and unlike the facebook page, full of constructive criticism rather than toxic. Nice to think that our voices might actually be heard.

I don't know what configuration is possible in vBulletin boards, but I've been tagging my bug posts pretty heavily. At this stage, I'm picking random keywords that best fit the bug discovered.

For example, if it's a bug with Cirqus Voltaire and the DMD, I would tag "Cirqus Voltaire, DMD".

Perhaps a formalised tag list reporters could use might help attach metadata to each bug.

People might not know that there is an Art forum, therefore may not post correctly. You could say the same argument about tags, but at least they are present at the bottom of each new forum post when you create it initially.

Also, should Farsight consider a PAF public bug tracker so the devs can do more targeted triage on issues raised? I'd totally use a bug tracker if it was offered. One with "as you type" bug subject matching would cut down the duplicates.

I would think that having components assigned to individuals would prevent bugs slipping through the cracks. For example, Ryan could be assigned the "Android" component in the tracker and Jason could be assigned to Table Art and Graphics for example.

I come from a software background, and use bug trackers daily. So all this is a natural reflex for me. This might be a little scary to those users who have never seen one before.

But some bug trackers have such excellent Wizards in them that logging a bug is is no harder than filling out a web form.

I think that as time progresses, I'm just worried the forum functionality might start to get out-of-scope.

Hi Jason

Well it seems a thread was started on Art.
But then Admin split this so issues sat under the relevant tables.

How would you prefer it?
*Individual issues under separate tables?
*Or one Art topic/thread to give you a more 'at a glance' way of assessing feedback?

Thanks for your work-Just wish my iPhone would let me appreciate it more
I hope you're pressing for the Free-Roaming camera option so we can see the bits missed during frantic play.

Thanks

Andy

Jason asked for an Art Forum, not an Art Thread. A thread makes little sense, given the number of different topics that would be posted there, and discussed.

jaredmorgs, Unfortunately very, very few people use the tagging options.
