Can We Talk About "The War of the Visual Pinball Websites"?

<< < (2/9) > >>

faralos:
speaking of that pin ITCHIGO you made a boo boo with that template
it seems that not every OS can run it as coded
we have had quite the time getting it to run correctly on other peoples systems
 it worked great on mine but others had problems with the CDBL scoring stuff
from what I gather all is well finally (see threads on it in both vpf and pn)
but what a hassle to release a pin that did not work on most  other OS's
 and that is a weird thing to happen too as I never had any problem
with any of your other templates before this
 any reason why it would not work as it should on other peoples computers?

faralos, I think you need to change "HTD" to "the name of your table" in the script.

There's also a possibility that the Dim Value needs to be renamed because "Value" is already in use as a Method name in VBScript. Also, you can try replacing the " " on the LoadValue line with Empty, though the first thing to do is to specify your table name in place of "HTD".

As for " ", this represents a Text String while CDbl represents a Numerical value.
When you use numbers in text strings, usually you will need to convert the text string number to a numerical value before it can be used as a number.

faralos:
until I get a definite way for the fix I can't change it
it works just fine on my computer so any change I do to it
I cannot test here on my tower so I won't know if it works or not
 we have had numerous ways to solve this situation going by the posts over at vpf and PN
 it all depends on your OS
and changing it to KvsR  (table name) instead of HTD   I get the error too
well I most definitely will never be using this flawed template ever again

Itchigo:
Which template is it? I have no problems with it under Windows 7. The area you are talking about is the save info. You can delete the whole paragraph, and the save info call in Game Over, and the Load Info call at Table Init.

Download the precoded table and try it, they are coded the same way. I thought that one worked ok for you?

faralos:
it was the two player EM table template and yes it did work just fine for me
it was other peoples OS's that had problems running it
it still runs great over here so I can't even test the problem out
 since I can't get it to crash at all on my computer
I am running with WinXP pro and have no problems
but like I said earlier check out the threads on it over at PN
 the guys who posted all had different problems
 so I don't know really what went wrong with it or is still wrong with it
didn't mean for you to get your knickers in a bunch over it though
as I think the guys who posted on the errors have all got it running okay now
