Well, here are the promised hugs :) HOF point restore button is working again, with some additional help from Safecracker, it put me over 40K HOF points for the first time! Great job fixing this!
On a side note: the HOF highscore table seems to be cleaned up but is not updating and at the risk...
I would look at Pinside, a great pinball site that also provides information about average prices and has eBay links. I recently started to build a collection and found a company in Germany that specializes in "Americana" and has a guy who restores older pins to pristine condition. He also puts...
Hi Wildd one,
As usual it has nothing to do with Farsight, but everything with delays in the approval process at Apple App Store. Especially with a lot of apps pending because of updates to integrate Apple Watch features. This has been communicated a couple of times and is not under any control...
Trip down memory lane here also, haven't bettered my near 350k but also haven't played much Big Shot after that. Recently I picked it up again because of the new flipper physics and promptly scored a 325K, almost first game back. Very dumb of me to think that would open the highway to 1000 HOF...
You are welcome, loved it myself btw, same genre as for example "King of Kong, a fistful of quarters", I really like how character is explored, what makes those great players tick.
I just wanted to say thank you as feedback. The TOTW made me play tables again that I hadn't in a long time and although I couldn't participate that often anymore the last couple of weeks as I would have liked, I bettered a lot of my scores! It also encouraged players to interact more with each...
I now can report some issues with flippers gone dead, experienced those on prolonged games of TOTAN (actually multiple long games) and on Whitewater. Can't say what caused this and haven't had the issue since. I do try to keep it clean: close all other apps and also tried to start TPA after...
Thanks Gus! Flipper angle is not mentioned in the manual. I have searched a bit round the 'net and haven't found solid info yet. It's probably also a personal taste thing as Kevlar said, like the table angle. With these flipper settings I can hit everything quite easy, only the lock hole is...
Just had my third pinball delivered to me yesterday, an Indiana Jones '93 in pristine condition! This was one of my if not the my most favorite pin of my college days. Not knowing anything about the pin made the first "Well of Souls" mode I played a wonderful pinball memory back then. I got this...
This is probably the most played TPA table, if only because it's packed with the free TPA version. I really like the table for the theme, layout and play flow but it's also a bouncey SOB. I can't play this table under any amount of control. If I try, I drain rapidly. Have never managed to stack...
Hi Dan, it works, I have activated it a couple of times on iOS. To me it seems you actually have to activate it quite late to get it to start, even on the souvenir page if I correctly remember it
I think it would be nice to get a "map" like we had with Genie, in which "good" shots were annotated beside "bad" or "prohibited" shots. That one helped me a lot to clean up my game. For the slingshots I only start nudging as a general rule when the ball hits the upper or lower part, as hits to...
Ok, wow, they should consider opening a gameroom to the public! Ask a reasonable entrance fee and they could recoup on their investment in another way, and make some pinheads happy at the same time!
I imagine there's not enough space to keep 'm all after digitizing but the total lineup would be an amazing gameroom! :) Which ones did you keep? And did selling others yield a profit?
Hi all,
Just an appreciation post because I'm having fun playing TPA :)
As of the release of Red & Ted's Roadshow, we have:
- 41 of the top 100 pins as rated at Pinside as virtual recreations in TPA (july 2015).
- When leaving out the newer Sterns (and WOZ by JJP) beyond 2010, it's actually...
I heard that CC was a mistake, the HOF score is definitely off by a factor 10, skewed to the hard side. Junkyard was initially set too low, so Farsight fixed that retroactively. Something like that also happened to Victory, although I'm not sure what happened there in detail (I just took my 943...
Hi Pinballchris, I sure hope you did a remote backup before pushing the HOF button? I'm also eagerly awaiting a fix to level the playfield again with my fellow iOS players who did benefit from a functioning button :)
