    My bad, my controller doesn't use all xbox 360 (xinput) binds.. it's a hybrid of keyboard and xinput. It's very odd pressing enter on the table selection menu doesn't launch the table though.

    Jeez, 7th on TAF but I'm happy at least one of 3 or 4 10bn rollovers stuck, I felt like a fish out of water trying to juggle bonus values in my mind thinking what 'isn't too big for the rollover'. it not showing you the billionth place value unless you're in some kind of multiball doesn't help...

    Ok how about a more direct way, let's watch the memory as it adds up points instead of the DMD? I am apart of the 'glorious PC gaming master race' after all. video & Spreadsheet I didn't know any ramp shot is already 15M, and unlit keno arrow targets.. were 17 then 18M.. have to look into that...

    Extra Balls / Specials Specials are woth 1,000,000 points and can be collected from the Casino Run Mode. 24/27 The Williams Jack*Bot manual even says this on 56/150, when Special is set to points nothing in the manual suggests turning tournament mode on makes EBs and Specials worth xyz points...

    PAPA game 7:50, score reads 2,553 starting casino run 8:40, cow which is said to be an instant special 8:56, Jackbot which should be 300M (275M was previous) 9:20, score reads 3,160M during casino run 9:33, score reads 4,402 after adding 3 specials and 487M. Had they really earned 500M...

    There's one I'm working on that you play for a couple hours so you can take advantage of the machines bad math during bonus calculation.. it's in the strategy thread for TAF, but you also cant score too much or the game wont recognize the rollover :rolleyes:

    Last game, 39B decided to only start playing when I got a +10 cards from the slot machine and eventually tried to keep the locks door closed to get Max vortex, card and x5 bonus awards before continuing on a new ball. soft plunged the whole time. Game time was 72 minutes. Hats off to anyone who...

    It turns out Jack lies in multiple places, big surprise. short video example spreadsheet So in the above spreadsheet, the left example shows a brand spanking new game and I did 1 cashier shot and drained, the right example is what happened in the video: 3 Keno Arrow awards for a PC and Maxed...

    Last night I got a 30bn game [58m] but I can't crack 20bn all day today[30-40m]. I changed my strat, forget poker cards and shoot hit-me cards during casino runs. That should be a much quicker build up for cashiers. Still got bombed on the third reel on my first CR.. maybe low time is a factor.

    Okay so I got one of those EB rampshots (dumb luck, never found a way to keep the ball bouncing long enough), is that the reason the ramp will start at 25M until you score another EB and reset its starting position? Other thoughts revised, casino run becomes a hater and you might as well just...

    y'know obscure quirks that you find out afterwards, don't drain near the 9.9bn mark on judge dread.. the game may not register that you rolled the table from it's bad math.. (is my guess) during bonus calculation and the next ball launch, don't roll certain tables with high value shots.. I...

    New lesson, just because your internet worked before the game started doesn't mean it will when you're watching the DMD do the last bonus calculation an hour later, guess I'm pausing and checking before I drain on ball 3 in the future. Can we make a sticky with all the bugs and other facets one...

    TPA needs physics like this?

    So far I saw, the flippers bend down when there's a force acted upon them when not engaged, post-passing is a contested skill which makes room for cradle separation to exist. The lighting in VP must have changed recently? It's missing ambient occlusion too, the flashers are showing up/clipping...

    I don't play it's multiball anymore, the locks or flippers don't behave like they used to.. a lot of shots just bounce out of there unless you shoot cross or hit a bank shot from the rubber into the locks, straight up is just a headache. another table that didn't play the same post-physics 3.0...

    Criticism on Zen Pinball

    I don't believe that to be an accurate discription of 'the exploit', 'The Exploit':2 keyboard keys for nudging (or directions on the D-PAD) were combined on one keystroke to achieve the effect, ('up and in' term was used at the time) more simply. Others already had the 2key input 'skill' for...

    Criticism on Zen Pinball

    You're afforded two warnings, each expire after 10 seconds so combining two inputs wouldn't cause a tilt. A nudge at the moment the ball touches the flipper, no matter how minimal the momentum, it may produce an undesired results: example1 example2, better remake leaderboards again.. or not? I...

    anyone double check their scores?* I played a 30 minute game, only 14b.. hadn't played J*B in awhile but thought it was enough to look at what was scoring me points and.. I'm scratching my head wondering whats so valuable that I'm missing. even accounting for the possible inlanes and saucers I...

    Criticism on Zen Pinball

    there's a few facets to this, 1)their warnings expire 2)there is no tilt bob 3)nudge strength is based on the sticks location, not a delta between two locations (TPA) 4)the sticks deadzone is around 33% of the stick and the last 10% is always a warning so the stick works against you in two ways...
