As long this is TPA related work you have my blessings ^^

It might be rom emulation and pro pack for Black Knight.

About as much chance of AC/DC being the next table.

He, he - yeah - I'd figured similar odds.
Oh well - gotta keep hoping.

I'll try to take a look at a few of these, but I can tell you right off the bat the lower lods for black hole do look octagonal, I had overridden that for the previous builds, but when I put in the option I put it back to the way it was supposed to be.

Also the blackknight 2000 missing piece was intentional I believe. Is it in the higher lods? To lower the level of detail sometimes artists take out pieces and simplify others.

the other two I have no idea I would have to take a look.

Ok Ryan, here are the results of the Beta low level of detail vs. Market release for the first 20 tables. Issues are highlighted in red and need attention. Notable improvements are highlighted in green and are fine as is.

Galaxy S4 running Android 4.4.2 / High lod model beta with Detail set to "Low" / Beta release vs. Market release

Attack from Mars : OK

Big Shot : OK

Black Hole : All blue pop bumpers have a low poly count and appear as octagons.

Black Knight : OK - Playfield light cutouts have been improved and look very clean.

Black Knight 2000 : Missing the metal hook that connects the bottom end of the upper-to-lower playfield wire ramp to the top corner of the right slingshot plastic.

Bride of Pin•Bot : OK

Cactus Canyon : OK

Centaur : OK - Transparencies on the edges of all plastics are now fixed (transparent).

Class of 1812 : OK

Creature from the Black Lagoon : OK - Decals on the plastics ramps no longer have the black boxes around them.

Thanks for looking into these issues Ryan. I'll try to get the rest of the tables checked later tonight or early tomorrow morning.

 

[Ryan Routon]

sounds good, appreciate it. As long as the major issues are stomped out I'm not worried and this will roll out with the next update.

 

[Ryan Routon]

made it shorter and scroll, landscape looks ok.

Options menu is crowded now.

Could you not implement a sub menu?

You could reorder the menu items and put things like "Credits" and "Our Mission" down the bottom. Also group all graphics settings together.

 

[Ryan Routon]

i you delete the file and redownload this should be fixed.

Check Tee'd Off...The glass over the Golfer wheel is no longer transparent here with Detail set to "Low".

 

[PiN WiZ]

i you delete the file and redownload this should be fixed.

Thanks...will check it out when I get home.

Also, can you please check the High LOD transparency issue of the blue plastic over the right inlane on White Water and the High LOD dark color issue of the Monster Slide ramp on Elvira and the Party Monsters (same issue as the Low LOD table)?

 

[Ryan Routon]

Ill look into those but unfortunately I think for this round that is all I am going to be able to address due to time constraints with other tasks. Feel free to keep reporting issues though after this week settles down I might have time to take a look and purge res files for minor issues.

Not a problem...there doesn't seem to be any major issues so anything else I report should be minor.

appreciate it

On my nexus 7 (2012) Black Knight crashes completely along with another table (I have to go back and find out which one again. I used table management to clear the rez and re download each and they still crash.

I've got the same hardware, but no issues. Mine is running stock KK4.4.2 rooted.

Can you use file explorer to see the size of the data for the rez files in question.
Black Knight should = 8.23mb

When I was getting bum files a while back, the size of the file was about 1/2mb or less when downloaded.

 

[Carl Spiby]

I guess tomorrow for W?D then?

 

[Ryan Routon]

I'm trying to track down a crash so that I can post WD...its a strange one though, anyone having issues with the CDN lately?

Not personally - I've downloaded Tee'd off rez file on 2 devices today without issue.

 

[Ryan Routon]

meh I hate our cdn. It "magically" went away. Must have been a bad file not the code *sigh*. I will make a new thread when its ready.

You all are going to love this table.
