    Do you think Zen or Farsight will do newer tables?

    FarSight didn't seem too worried about the screens of newer Sterns (but then they also haven't done any yet), as they said is essentially video with a score overlay. The size is reminiscent of Frankenstein, and in landscape mode wouldn't pose a problem. Zen has that View 8 with the DMD showing...

    Williams Pinball App Data Collection

    Have you complained to Zen using social media? I keep saying it, they don't monitor hardly any threads in this forum (deep has actually viewed this thread though), so alerting them to issues via Twitter or Facebook in addition to posting here might be more beneficial. I see people post things...

    Volume 4 out on iOS

    I have not heard anyone has gotten that offer within the app.

    Zen & Stern collaboration teaser?

    I honestly don’t know. I’m piecing together bits I’ve heard from various things I’ve read and come up with the tech angle. Again though, JJP is clearly not afraid of trying things out. Wish there was rumors of them and Zen hooking up!

    The Random Thought Thread

    Allow me to interrupt all this soccer talk ('scuse me, football) for some NBA blathering... I was surprised to find myself sorta rooting for the Raptors to win it all. I liked all the stories that went along with them. From the coach coming out of the G-League to win as a rook, a city winning...

    Volume 4 out on iOS

    I fully agree about 1 ball Champ Pub. Hard pass. Once I beat the new tables, they reset in 24 hours. The second timer, which for those of us on iOS most likely reads 5 days now, I believe is when the challenge is going to disappear completely. It is a “limited timed event”, and some on Android...

    I can hit that right ramp no problem on Steam in Arcade mode. On the app with Zen physics? I have zero flow. I cannot combo to save my life. White Water is all about hitting that ball lock lane, and then working the falls and the whirlpool. I’m getting pretty good at that. Or at least until...

    Zen & Stern collaboration teaser?

    My understanding is there are a couple of key people at Stern trying to open Gary’s eyes to technology as it applies to gaming, but Gary hasn’t really processed the potential. He can see the now and doesn’t want to repeat mistakes of the past, which in and of itself can be a roadblock to the...

    Zen & Stern collaboration teaser?

    I have not been told in any way if a deal is in the works between Zen and Stern (and yes I asked). So this is not me doing a secret nod and a wink, I know the answer but I just can’t say sort of thing. Of course Zen is interested, and why wouldn’t they be? But no formal talks have been had...

    Zen & Stern collaboration teaser?

    Stern contracted FarSight to make SPA. Once that contract was complete, you saw all the tables come into TPA. Mel has repeatedly said FX3 is a platform, a hub, from which all the tables will be playable. Stern would just get its own column much like Williams has now. On mobile, I certainly can...

    Is TPA alone enough for you, or are you also buying into Zen’s Williams app?

    On console they use the ‘family mode’ setting which alters certain DMD imagery like the dragon eating people in Medieval Madness. They also alter cab and play field art; depictions of alcohol, tobacco, blood/gore, and any sign of cleavage or bare skin near the thighs gets covered up. This was...

    The Music Video Thread

    Okay last one, and it by far is the most WTF? of the batch. So I don't know what someone at Disney was smoking when they thought this was a good idea. Devo's lyrics and videos were often highly sexualized in that "wink wink, know what I mean" way. Obviously lyrics were changed (listen to...

    The Music Video Thread

    In much the same vein, I love a good mash-up, even when I don't care for one of the artists. With that in mind, here's Taylor Swift vs NIN

    I'm a gigantic Nine Inch Nails fan. I love how Black Mirror sanitized Head Like a Hole and made it into an empowerment bop.

    Is TPA alone enough for you, or are you also buying into Zen’s Williams app?

    I have every table in TPA FarSight put out on Steam, as well as SPA. I also have the mobile versions in iOS. My main criticism had been the lighting, as even with the sliders I found there was a general lack of understanding about how light works in the real world. I did find the game play...

    Williams Pinball App Data Collection

    The score requirements haven’t changed in case anyone is thinking that. Even though the challenges are no longer listed as ‘basic, advanced, pro, premium’ the scores do correspond to what they were, with 1st challenge being the same as basic and so on down the line. Easy = 5 star, normal = 10...

    Well look, on the one hand they made a good choice in separating earning parts for the new tables by purely putting them into their own separate challenge (unless something has changed and people now have earned Vol 4 parts in regular daily challenges; I haven't yet). That way you are still only...

    Zen & Stern collaboration teaser?

    I think the option for Pro or LE would depend on Stern and whether they’d want the non bells and whistles budget version being represented. Since it’s not just artwork, it would also be more build time for Zen as well as additional tuning. In other words, they offer AC/DC as a 3 pack and charge...
