    Twilight Zone: Was That Really a Bug?

    Yep, it is faster. Some issues with ball skins exist at the moment that affect performance on mobile platforms, dropping frame rates (at least for some android users). And I have to also comment that TZ will surprise those players used to the real table. It is very easy to get 1bn points...

    Round 5: Q&A With Bobby King: Answers

    To those console fans worried about their light slider, did you not read Bobby's response correctly? He said that work for consoles will be starting on this, so I don't understand why you're carrying on so much. Therefore mobile platforms will not be "sacrificing the console experience" for...

    Android - Bug Observed Bugs in Twilight Zone (v1.7.0 BETA)

    Were you able to press the Enter button inside the coin door once, and view the reported issue, or was this impossible because of a game state reset after the coin door was opened. You should hear 5 ”bongs" if there is a service dot, and there should be a flashing message on the DMD.

    Thorough testing there, netizen. Thanks for saving me $4. Looks like the way pro menu is implemented will need to drastically improve before I start handing over any cash. :-(

    Clock Logic causing Service Dot Tracked down what was causing the service dot. Answer: The Clock During a long game, the clock state seems to go screwy. I've seen the clock sitting at 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock a few times, and this is about the same time that the service dot appears. That...

    Android - Bug Observed Bugs in Twilight Zone (v1.7.0 BETA)

    Regression: Performance degredation between BETA 1 and BETA 2 Right, that is enough proof for me. Issue seems to be caused with ball skins. Pro Tip: If you want to play BETA 2 version of v1.7.0, then *do not* go and touch the ball skins. I have a feeling that if you leave them alone, the...

    Android - Bug Observed Bugs in Twilight Zone (v1.7.0 BETA)

    Confirmed!! This happens *all* the time for me Carl, but the ball doesn't get stuck up there (so that's a new "game stopping" variant which should warrant some direct attention). There needs to be some Cannon testing on that shot, and some tuning done on the scoop walls so the ball can not...

    Getting an accurate Powerball reproduction to include in the game. When new, the Powerball is very, very white. Over time the chrome dust the ball picks up removes this lustre. From the pictures I've seen in this thread, it's clear to me that Farsight did not refer to the internet to get a...

    tpa fams (aka us) roundtable podcast

    On the subject of this, I tried out Google Hangouts the other day to host a work meeting, and it worked *so* well! You can load this free plugin that also overlays your Name and the country you are from so there are no questions about who is who on the Google Hangout. When you speak on Google...

    I'm down with this. I know we talked at length about this on the PAF IRC room.

    Android - Bug FarSight official test. dept. Thread

    While I can't verify the behavior myself because I don't have the Pro menus unlocked, I wholeheartedly agree that better game state management is desperately required on these tables. What is the point of having a pro menu when you can't geek out over all the heuristics. Netizen, can you...

    Android - Bug Observed Bugs in Twilight Zone (v1.7.0 BETA)

    That is really puzzling. The "broken sensor" issue for me was across a few games as well. Yes, that is the correct behavior from what I remember. I actually thought that during Powerball, the Powerfield is disabled and the diverter scoop returns the ball from the right ramp to the playfield...

    Stephen, I've created a Twilight Zone thread in this forum specifically to track the issues observed with this very complex table. The thread focuses on the v1.7.0 beta that Ryan uploaded on the date of this post. Please monitor it for reported issues, and ask for more info if you need it...

    Significant slowdown during multiball Serious slowdown (60fps to 30fps) occurs when in multiball. No matter what the multiball mode. I had to pause and resume about 5 times during a game to get the framerate back again on the TF300T. This issue could be exacerbated by the custom ball texture...

    Android - Bug Observed Bugs in Twilight Zone (v1.7.0 BETA)

    Powerball Ball Texture doesn't make it appear like it's spinning. The Powerball ball texture is not distinguishable enough from the other pinballs (perhaps this could be an issue with the non-resetting ball skins that seem to be affecting all tables in v1.7.0). have a hard time visually...

    Bug Android Version 1.7.0 Bugs And Feedback

    I can't seem to reset the ball texture to anything but a dull silver colour. There doesn't seem to be an option to "revert to default" for the ball skins. This is needed.

    Bug Android Version 1.7.0 Bugs And Feedback

    This should be a pretty big beta with TZ being such a complex table. I've created a Twilight Zone splinter thread for 1.7.0 so we can focus comments on this table, and report all other general table faults in this thread.

    [Sound] JACKPOT sound effect inverted - TF300T I can't understand how this could actually happen if the sound is being emulated directly from the ROM. When the jackpot animation moves from the "target" animation to the pulsing and flashing JACKPOT>JACKPOT>JACKPOT>JACKPOT>JACKPOT>JACKPOT...

    "Sticky Spot" just above the top-left pop bumper - TF300T If a ball returns slowly down the left Dead End wall under the Powerfield, it seems to get snagged on something up there. There seems to be a digital sticky spot there for some reason.

    Powerball Detection Issues From the Ball Trough - TF300T The outhole trough sensor is definitely not working. When the powerball pops out of the three-ball trough, the Powerball should be instantly registered, and the powerball tune start. A ball-lane delivered powerball is only detected on...
