Star Pool Williams 1974 FS Direct B2s

This is a vp8 to FS mod of Eala's table (thank you). I had some help from Eala and PBecker1946 (moving the center image- it was a reel).

Not a bad looking table, but I was wondering why some of the table lights have a square around them when lit?

For the most part it was a straight rotation, but I'm guessing there was a difference between the lit/unlit images. I had to change them to "custom" lights from regular ones (only custom lights will show an image). When you change a regular light to custom it turns square, unless you shape it. Think I missed that. :Whistle:

Lol, oops didn't mean to toss you under the bus!  :Rolleyes: Just curious  why some had squares and some didn't.

So how do you "shape" them, is it relatively easy? 
I have a couple other tables with the same thing, maybe I can fix them myself if it's not too complicated.

Nah, I'm used to it at work.... :Cussing: :Banghead:

What's happening is the light itself is bigger than the image it's being put on, and you're seeing overlap. What you're seeing is the color difference between the 2 images. I played with the lit/unlit images in Gimp, but I didn't apply the settings equally so they're a bit off (got interputed).

For circular lights: Copy and paste a light from my Cowboys and Indians table. (Thanks JP). -- As long as the lights are not listed in any collection in the collection manager-- Delete the old light and copy a circular one, rename.

Or just reshape the light(s) you have via this: (Walls and lights are shaped the same way).

Itchigo - think we can get permissions to update this table with some new code and graphics?

Eala gave me permission to mod to FS/update as needed, so I'd say yes. As long as we say Original Table by Eala, updated by allknowing2012 we're good. It's one of my favorites from when I was a kid, that's why I wanted it. Even before I was an operator.
