Will there ever be a use for credits? Are they currently totalled in the game save file?

That question has already been answered. The answer was that they would love to do an original table. I think the implication was that they still have a lot of real tables that they want to do first.

I posted a video on Facebook two years ago or something. Basically, it ruins the whole gameplay when you know it so please no hard feelings afterwards.
This works best with 2 balls:
1. Try to cradle one ball on each flipper.
2. Shoot left ball into hallway, then into trap door. Rudy screams, millions scored.
3. Right before the trap door ball is kicked out, you shoot the cradled ball into the left ramp, hold the flipper and here comes the glitch: the kicked out ball always lands safely into the right flipper.
4. When the ramp ball rolls into left lane, you nudge the table a couple of times and cradle it, too.
The first hour of this sequence is fun, after that you realize you'll never play Funhouse again.
With a bit of practice it works perfectly in PHOF, don't know about TPA. I asked them to consider adjusting the kickout strength/angle, so the ball jumps away from the flipper. Or maybe randomize it.

Question for Bobby:
Would you guys consider releasing a benchmark test of TPA for the PC? It could be a downloadable standalone app that simply lets you watch a game being played in demo mode, and allows you to test out different advanced graphics settings. It would be a great test tool for those of us thinking about possibly updated their graphics cards in time for the PC TPA release.

When is the "sound overhaul" coming, and what are the details of it? For instance, new samples of mechanical sounds? Monster Bash sounds very clear on 360, are the other ROMs able to achieve this quality and is this what the overhaul is going to be?
Thanks,
George

Do you mean like being able to buy upgrades or alternative pieces for mods to the tables?
Id hate that i bought pinball of ages and treat it as a video game(fine videogame)....to me tpa is the best alternative to a costly real table or even a vpin. In case you dont know the inapp which i bought on sale has what you mention and its great for abit of fun but its not real pin, tho the mummy and alien are pretty much nifty as your nuts.
Any and all non standratd playfeilds aside from offical pro tables should be non and void for leaderboards yet that kinda **** annoys my tits tpa is a true simulation or getting their for naysayers .....i even think op acess for tng and twz should be non and void...at least score wise...adding other silly elements to and already good game is just not needed

Not sure if it's been asked but will we ever be able to customize the controls?
Are you considering adding some randomness or variation to certain events? Right now, balls ejected from sink holes and saucers go to the exact same place every time. Same with certain other shots, particularly the left loop on BOP, which allows for virtually unlimited balls by continuously backhanding the ball into the loop, where it is conveniently returned to the flipper, ready to repeat. While the ball can be backhanded into the loop on a real table, it doesn't always return to the same place, so it's not as easy to exploit. Adding just a tiny bit of variation will prevent many cheap exploits (at least the ones that won't also work on real tables) and make games more interesting.

I thought iwas on topic dude but only read that line maybe i was mad? Or did i just do alot of gibberish sorry if i did man...its an ios title by ask homework...it has various flippers etc it breaks the pinball but a fun game

Don't worry about it, I just had a hard time figuring out what you were saying. Lots of strange word choices, and odd structure.
I haven't tried Funhouse in TPA because I live in Europe. If you say so, then the glitch has been fixed. Try this in PHOF, though.
Not an exact question, but I would be interested in just a status/update on the PS Vita version of TPA. I've been posting in the Vita section for the last day about my concern for the various bugs reported, as I will be a potential buyer of the Vita TPA in the very near future. Just some acknowledgement that Farsight is working to address the issues is all I'm looking for.
