Actually getting ready to bring a build upstairs to have those items addressed.

Thanks Ryan, the camera settings on Taxi really concerned me, including the camera focus on the spinout skill shot, which you can't even see at the moment.

I found a few things that will help taxi slightly, although unfortunately this table will have the same restrictions that fun house and bride had.

Does that mean, Taxi will run as good as those two tables on my device? That would be awesome.

Kickers and Pop sounds still lack punch, the revised sound of the pops in this build is going to the right way but needs more!

On the TF300T, I'm actually "feeling" the pop-bumpers popping for the first time because of the tweaked mechanical sounds. This tablet doesn't have a vibrator unit in it, so the bass-reflex chamber is the closest I'm going to get to game haptics.

Bring the bass!

I managed to hit 2 balls in to the drac lock by accident, one straight after the other. One ball flew out somewhere and was put back in to the plunger lane.

Can't really go in to more detail than that.

TPA BETA 1.4.3 clean install on Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 running Android 4.0.4. Tablet was reset before running TPA BETA.

Taxi

• When light show begins, (HUD score lights flicker fast) causes a huge frame rate loss.
• During gameplay, the sound for the ball hitting the glass I assume, plays everywhere. (ramps, express lane 2, side bumpers, etc..)
• Three red center bumpers are sometimes dark and unlit.
• Santa Clause's clothes look very faded out, color red is so faded pink

Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh! On the flip side, there are tweaks and things to make it work, if the user is so inclined.

UPDATE Added the following bugs to my master bugs list :

Harley Davidson Third Edition

• Left Slingshot animation is not working correctly.

Medieval Madness

• Ball occasionally gets stuck on the open drawbridge with the metal strip on the tip of the drawbridge not allowing the ball to pass through back onto the playfield. Nudging will allow the ball to pass through back onto the playfield.
• You can shoot two balls into Merlin's saucer at the same time. Other balls should bounce off a ball that is occupying Merlin's saucer.

Taxi

• Framerate drops to 30fps during intense light shows.

All Tables

• The last Hall of Fame score is visible below the Hall of Fame splash screen underneath the "Scores" and "Continue" buttons. Other Hall of Fame scores are visible below the Hall of Fame splash screen underneath the "Scores" and "Continue" buttons as you scroll through the scores as well.

The Taxi jackpot resets to 500.000 at the start of each game, isn't it supposed to build up over games until you hit it?

Regarding the Hall of Fame score that appears after a high score: Would it be possible to view the overview of HoF score per table in the main menu?

Just found a small spelling error in Harley Davidson, in the instructions.
Speedometer Multi-Ball, page 18. It says "Jackot" instead of "Jackpot" :)

ON-LINE HIGH SCORE TABLES: Black Hole and TOM high scores are swapped out.

IN-GAME HOF POINTS TABLES: Scroll down to end. TAXI is in back of buttons (SCORE/CONT) and HD3E is below buttons (outside of HOF frame)

BALL COUNT: Ripley's, BH, MM, and BK multiball/multiple balls in play count is off, turns repeatedly end with ball in play; also Ripley's occasionally injects extra ball into play when no mission is running and add-a-ball is not active; Ripley's and MM load two balls to plunger following multiball.

WRONG WAY GATE: Taxi - hard shot to right lane forced ball into failed funnel drop (where plunged balls drop if they don't make the funnel) resulting in stuck ball but attendant failed to recognize as missing ball forcing manual quit game

BLACK GLASS DMD: CV (Portrait) The top 5-10 pixels of all DMD animations are chopped off.

RIGHT FLIPPER: HD3E AND BK - Right Flipper will stop responding during multiball while left flipper continues to work.

Suggestion: In-game HOF Points list really should be ordered by alpha (title) and not by release package

LOST BALL: BH (Lower play field). Multiball in lower play field, hit to lock area results in lost ball, no attendant reset is available (ball not lost); draining remaining ball from lower play field leaves camera focus on lower with no way out but to quit. Repeat issue from previous version releases.

I was experiencing a bit of lag on Harley Davidson during multiball, but now I'm no longer experiencing any appreciable lag on any tables. The only thing I've changed was to disable all location updating/sharing options in the Maps application (trying to resolve battery drain). It is unknown whether or not the two are related.

This issue for me was not too bad but did cause sudden freezes and skipped frames which was frustrating if I was on a good run and suddenly found the ball magically transported from the top to the bottom of the play fields.

This suggestion improved performance across the board on my device.

Through system settings, I disabled all Google location services and GPS.

Tables that were very acceptable before are now super slick!

Thanks, Trachea!

Ryan,

HD3E - A fairly regular stutter (single occurrence each time) in the DMD animation with Red Light Video mode approx. 1-2 seconds after it starts the animation stutters and jumps ahead about 1 second (or slightly less) worth of real time.

No other noticeable performance hits while in game though I did notice 3-4 times (out of 40-50 plays) that when I exited the HD3E table and opened BoP it was like playing in molasses and the only cure was to exit the application and force close via the system tray.

Since taking @trachea's advice and turning off my location services this morning I haven't had that happen again.

Thanks.

i think we might have addressed the dmd issue, though its being tested right now. Thanks for the feedback.

Great to hear the DMD hiccup is being addressed as that's one bug I ran across as well, but forgot to include in my bugs list.

Will you be pushing out the apk with the multiball fix? I'd rather not keep reinstalling so I can play the other tables properly.
