Message: <blockquote data-quote="Gemini" data-source="post: 204939" data-attributes="member: 5350">Found a really hard to notice bug with the new JackBot table's ROM emulation on DX11 (untested on DX9). Specifically, every once in awhile the music sections loop when they're not supposed to. Basically, you'll hear a portion of music loop over and over again as opposed to moving on to the rest of the tune. It's difficult to notice because the music pieces on this table link into each other extremely well, so even when it's unnaturally looping it sounds like it MIGHT be correct... but isn't. Doesn't seem to happen in any consistent manner either.Best way to notice the music problem is immediately after going for a skill shot. The lead sax should start playing after about 9 seconds. If it doesn't, it's not looping properly. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" />Also, the ball will phase through the left ramp if it gets stuck behind it, even though the real machine is designed to be able to handle this scenario and let the ball out.Other than that, the table's playing really well. You may want to add a note in the instructions though as to which button to press to use the "Extra Ball" button, since pressing it to "cheat" is essential in playing this pin, but the instructions don't say which button actually does it. (For those who can't figure it out, it's the second right flipper button, whatever you have that assigned to on your keyboard or controller. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
