[QUOTE="netizen, post: 105896"] The sound is probably a poor DSP in the kindle, imo. When you trigger three simultaneous samples that eats resources, so i would imagine that farsight has a little bit of code to add a little phase and doubling to a single sample to give the aural effect of a three from one. However, when you keep jamming on the flippers there may be a loop where the DSP isn;t cutting off fast enough and the sample is being triggered to close together thus causing that phasing effect that is heard. This is purely speculative, bacuase I do not know how FS does their audio capture or processing, but fwiw this is the way it could be done and how things could wind up sounding the way it does in the video. As to the rotation, do you hoold you Kindle in the default factory designed portrait orientation? I know on some droids if you try and play TPA with screen rotation on and in an non-standard orientation you will get that sort of reversal when the actual 3d rez files load, attract mode ends, and the you have actually begun a game. There are 3rd party apps to lock orientation, but that doesn't solve the initial problem. [/QUOTE]
