Your online high scores are tied to your Farsight account you log on with ingame, which is going to be the same one on both DX9 and DX11. I'm not sure if this is the case for local leaderboards or not. The only platform with a completely separate online leaderboard is Xbox One/360.

DMD -> EM for me. I love the brutal difficulty and short playtimes a lot more than the bells and whistles and deep rulesets mostly. There are of course outlier tables that are just really really good no matter what. Overall that's been my experience though.

So I noticed I could input 10:16 resolutions (1200x1920) from the config. The problem with it is that it uses what I'm assuming are 9:16 camera values currently so in portrait mode the camera angle is so low it hides the flippers on most tables partially or entirely. If we could get the camera...

Actually never mind all this I'll take it to the bug thread. Sorry!

Going to go ahead and petition here for 16:10 resolutions to be added if possible. It's currently not really possible to test the beta in portrait mode with 1200x1920 due to the weird camera angles/black borders clipping off portions of the screen. Basically just need 1200 pixels as valid for...

GTX 970 4Gb i5 3570K @ 4.4GHz 16Gb RAM Win7 home 64-bit I normally have sounds off when playing, but I tried to turn them on to hear Cyclone. Currently every time I launch the game and turn on sounds and music in the menu, and then try to enter a table, the app crashes on loading the table. If...

I honestly can't really remember that well, it's been a while. If I had to guess probably around 7 hours.

The main thing is it's really hard to drain on that table if you avoid taking certain shots. It's not exactly infinityable or anything, but you can grind it out longer than I have the patience for at least if you pick what you go for carefully. The #1 score is a little bit fishy, but not really...

More than that missing. I don't think anyone knows who vpforums is, and is probably a cheater anyway judging by his bk2k and sttng scores. Also touge_killer is an old banned user so likely won't be posting here. e: I'm definitely going to get back in the game now that DX11 is (almost) out. I...

Confirming somewhat similar problems. My monitor is 1920x1200. I set my resolution to 1920x1280 in the DX11 tab, and the game always has slim black bars on the top and bottom of the screen.

I don't really see a single card mentioned in this thread offhand that could be classified as low end. TPA isn't exactly super heavy either. If we were talking about modern fps games the sky is the limit for how much power you need, but this is much much simpler than that.

I've streamed most of my TPA playing so far, mainly so I can post a highlight in case I run into a bug or something. I'm probably going to stop bothering though since it's a lot of overhead on the cpu for very little gain.

I don't disagree with your general point at all. I just think making self-illuminating balls or making it unrealistic looking kind of runs counter to what TPA is supposed to do. I'd rather they just fix the ball reflection if it's possible and increase the GI to make the tables more lit. Some of...

I just generally kind of have a problem with expecting the ball to be extremely visible in the dark. I mean yeah clearly there's a problem where it doesn't actually reflect anything unless it's right next to the light source, but I'd much rather it be realistic than some sort of Zen-style...

It's impossible to go back. I tried, I really did. It's just so bad in comparison I can't do it. Going to wait for portrait.

Normally I'd agree but the OP clearly said he's only getting it for TPA, so the extra is totally worthless.

Further with modern motherboards you can actually turn off integrated graphics entirely in BIOS if you're using a separate graphics card, and you absolutely should. Some programs try to use both simultaneously to help out with the calculations but in effect it slows everything doing it down...

Well I have no slowdowns whatsoever, but I also have a fairly high-end system so it's not probably going to help that much to determine how much you actually need at a minimum. i5 3570k overclocked to 4.4G with 16G ram and Nvidia GTX 970, Windows 7 64b.

The DX9 exe is always locked to 60fps because the game's physics engine is tied to that number. It seems the DX11 one hasn't been locked down yet, which will fix the speedup issues when that happens. The slowdowns are most likely either bugs or hardware that isn't fast enough to handle the new...

Fair, but we were already told there were still a bunch of bugs left to fix before the beta went active. Most of the ones reported were probably already known from the closed beta group.
