Better start bloody playing...

I've been getting some feedback outside of this thread that listeners want to hear more Tech Talk from me. In past episodes I've touched on some technical aspects on Android, but I've always been mindful that not all listeners will be playing Android versions of TPA and may also not really...

I really wish FarSight would revisit flipper strength on all games. After playing a Trident for a bit last Monday it is evident to me that: EM != Early SS and Early SS != DMD when it comes to flipper strength. At the moment, FarSight has the "Whoa Nellie EM" feel. Or, if you want to put it...

Really appreciate your feedback, Extork. That interview really did come off well in the end. It was only successful and interesting because of the questions the community asked. So thanks to everyone who participated.

Probably around the end of this month for the hard copy. Text works better than voice in Google (SEO aside). I'd like ASK to benefit from that some how. 😉

Every time I read the title of this podcast, the 15yo in me just ROFLMAO. And forever it shall be known as Big Nuts.

Thanks for listening in. I knew the draw of juicy Zacc answers would be hard to resist. 😀

Next episode will be recorded on location in Bannings, CA.

Banning generally only happens when members aren't following the forum rules. Nothing you've written here contravenes those rule. Thanks for the feedback. I've got a long queue of Pinball Podcasts to get through (damn you Nate Shivers) but I'll be interested to listen to this episode bearing...

No problem switch-tre-flip (thanks for the knowledge).

And change the units of measure to Slower ---------0---- Faster.

Well at the moment, we can do that using the L/R Triggers. But arguably that isn't as intuitive as using the d-pad, so reassigning scrolling to the d-pad makes more sense (Joe Average user would probably try the d-pad first rather than the triggers). The current button assignment to select the...

+1. This would lower the entry barrier for some folks who don't want to fiddle and fuss. Just flip and pass.

Maybe even "Flipper Stroke Speed".

Scumble373, remember that cryptic tweet about getting the carousel shoulder buttons working then not working. I worked out the issue! The Shield Controller Mapper (SCM) software seems to override some UI button navigation coded into the app. And only on some screens. For example, the table...

We can only hope. And have you seen a citation from FarSight that this might be happening soon? Do share! :D

I only posted this in Android initially because it related to that platform. But it seems to dovetail quite nicely into this discussion as well. I created an Android User Guide because of deficiencies in the UI and subsequently the overall UX. The introduction to the guide pretty much sums up...

Yeah, I was pleased to find this out also after I initially commented about it here. The operator is understandably a bit gun shy about forking out what would be close to what he paid for the BoP and retrofitting the P-ROC kit onto a 30 yo machine. And then trying to recoup that on-location...

Kratos3 did you intend this to be specifically TPA related? I used to own a N7 2013 and had everything cranked up as high as it would go. Remember: Mipmap option for graphics is reversed. See http://jaredmorgs.github.io/Pinball_Arcade_Users_Guide_Android/#mip_mapping for more details.

The concept of a Favourites folder has been requested many times. Many, many, times. Along with a whole host of other compelling features that would make the UX far better than it is now. Don't get me started on the UI and UX of TPA. ::eye twitches::
