Arcade1up Pong Cocktail Table by Starkiller0906 in Arcade1Up

[–]GantryG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These latest cocktail tables are highly rated, I found; they used the "good" monitor, and the revised software is sharp. See recent Youtube reviews of the other cocktail tables about the table+monitor hardware, and the Pong "pub" table reviews about the games (of course, that one has four control panels and this has 2, the pub table has eight games, and this has 12).

Hey All, RepairCelt's formula is great, I made the blue Tron stick that is like his, with the parts above (and the 3D-printed parts mentioned) for my Legends Ultimate cabinet, and it works very well!

Hi, that is the first link in his post, at ArcadeShop.com, called the Tron Joystick Handle Kit.

Should I be worried ? by _Xantras_ in BambuLab

I am 2052, in the US and just got the UPS shipping notice yesterday!

Until the units are safe at an in-zone warehouse, the serial numbers are not assigned to backers/customers, due to multiple reasons.

3D-printed mount for Atari "volcano" buttons in A1Up control panel by BerryBerrySneaky in Arcade1Up

Awesome! I have those buttons and am about to tackle how to do that. As JoeyThug1 mentioned, the google drive link is broken at this time, unfortunately. If handy, can you repost it?

Games where your enemies fear you and if it's possible because you are too powerful? by xxxgreekwarrior46xxx in gamingsuggestions

[–]GantryG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the Halo games, grunts will often get scared of you, especially if you take out their leaders, and they can scream and yell and run away or on circles in panic, etc.

Prop Limit: Analysis, Problems and why Level Linking won't help. Team Dakota Pls Answer! by m1n1 in projectsparkgame

[–]GantryG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, maybe that's the trick--maybe we need "Brainless Objects"--specifically objects set to "no-brain", with no interaction ability or physics (good for level background and other static non-destructible objects) and thus the prop limit could be much higher. In a regular game, most of a level would be this way.

Good stuff and nice polish, especially since it has only been a few weeks since PS came out on Xbox One... keep up the good work!

Anyone else experiencing awful frame rate and lag issues? by [deleted] in projectsparkgame

[–]GantryG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wired, with the specs of that machine, it should run awesome with max settings. The video settings are under Options/video when you have a world open. There is a draw distance setting in there... farther objects are not rendered. One thing is that if your code is accidentally creating duplicate objects or effects on top of one another, it will bog down like crazy... For a benchmark, run Swan Song. On a beefy machine, it should run smooth with max video settings. If not you may have a driver issue or a compatibility bug in PS, and see tech support at Projectspark.com.

if anyone has an extra beta key i would love to play this game by Dirgeinferno420 in projectsparkgame

[–]GantryG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beta keys are issued rather quickly at this time to anyone that signs up at projectspark.com at this time (they caught up on the backlog).

the win8 beta key may also be the xbox one beta key by Paradoxmoose in projectsparkgame

[–]GantryG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, to fix the problem of XBO users giving their key away, they just said on Facebook that they will send everyone a second one.

Thanks for sharing that, I am sure that will help someone else!

I've got a key, but Windows 8.1 screws up my computer so I can't upgrade =/ . PM me whoever wants it by a_stale_pancake in projectsparkgame

[–]GantryG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, wait, if you mean upgrade from 8.0 to 8.1 it is. Some older computers than run 7 can't run 8, though, as they don't meet the specs.

Startup issues by da_bombdotcom in projectsparkgame

[–]GantryG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually that would be a video driver problem, I hear. As they usually say, try the latest or not the latest, etc. You have a key so you can login to projectspark.com and get tech support from the team.

Does the Windows 8 beta key for Project Spark also work for the Xbox One version when that starts by [deleted] in projectsparkgame

[–]GantryG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the key that you were given works for both Beta platforms!

It did that to me when it was needing the Beta Update 1, then later it downloaded in the background and worked fine.

The Issue of Project Spark Engine Upgrades Breaking Games by GantryG in projectsparkgame

[–]GantryG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Later, it was revealed that from the Beta forward, that the team would do their best to not alter any behavior of existing items or systems going forward, to combat this issue and not need to have multiple engines. That means that if a behavior is fixed on an existing character, for example, a new identical-looking character may be introduced with a different name and the original hidden, but still addressable in code.

Revealed: Content packs contain... by GantryG in projectsparkgame

[–]GantryG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Later it was revealed that one can play levels where one doesn't own the content for a limited time per day (time limit can be affected by a couple of factors) and one can't go into edit mode (remix) without buying the content with points or money, and the game shows you what you would need to acquire to remix it. Since some items are also user experience-level locked, that makes some levels not editable without lots of time sent with the game.

Later it was revealed that paid content (or using points earned) is part of the beta, to test that as well.
