is there info on how to change the song names, graphics, I guess in the jukebox display in the DMD?

The song names and such are in the "messages" tab, just search for the song you are replacing and change the text. You can override the memory length as well if the new song has a longer title. Animations can be changed but it's a frame by frame affair, so a huge pain.

Thank you!!!

Thank you again!!

New songs and jukebox info is loaded, just tweaking volume, but loving playing to Vicarious and The Knife on Met. Nice peice of software oga83, and the updated versions make it a breeze!

One further question, has anyone tried to change the songs on the jukebox, but maintain the songs as related to the pinball play. For example, when you get the graveyard multiball Id still like Master of Puppets to play, not my jukebox replacement song, do you know:
1) if this is possible, if so, which scripts are dedicated to the jukebox songs on 1.80?
2) is there enough memory to add 10 or 11 songs and keep original songs for multi-ball, crank it up, etc songs?

There isn't any way to do those things specifically, you have to work within the existing programming. I did find that the lady justice mode starts the music ~halfway through the track, so on one of my projects I had two songs pasted together to fill the audio space and found that song 2 queued up perfectly when lady justice began. I can't remember off the top of my head if any other songs/modes did that but there is one option for you at least. Also a tip, using a VM speeds up the audio prototyping nicely, no need to update your physical machine, just swap the rom file on your computer and run the VM.

Very cool, Ill have to try that as I "polish" the song-swap. Please excuse my ignorance, but what is VM?

A virtual machine, just an emulator that makes testing new code changes much faster.

Thanks again Jahkub!

Here is my song swap. Message location may be helpful for those working on a MET song swap.

Yeah, Im going totally dial this in, its almost like having a new pin and the original was f'in' amazing!!

I just bought a Met pro and will likely be switching some songs out at some point, and this will be useful.

Thanks.

No. You would need to reprogram the game. Pinball Browser allows you to replace sounds with different sounds but the game is still playing sound x at time y.
What you want is play sound z if this condition is met and that's not possible with PB.

I think you could do it with a P-ROC from Multimorphic. https://www.multimorphic.com/p3-pinball-platform/hardware-control-system/

Hi everyone.

I am unable to get to the tiny cc website to download PBBrowser. I ahve tried in Chrome and IExplorer 11. Am I missing something, is there a mirror site available?

Thank you.

Right-click and choose "save link as"...

Well, don't I feel silly!

Thank you. I've downloaded it and sent a donation. Going to try this on my GB LE, Delt31 has shared his library

GB LE library installed on pin and enjoying it. Thank you!

Has anyone had success in reworking Spider-Man, and be willing to share their file?

I have a friend's SM here, until he completes his house build. He's only played maybe one game. It would be cool to update it for him.

On my computers, with version 6.60, I can't watch the videos. Version 6.51 works flawlessly on this point. Anyone else has the problem?

Thanks in advance.

Yes

Merci infiniment, cela fonctionne parfaitement!

Kudos for this handy tool, it deserves a donation!

Has anyone had any luck customizing the ROM for the new Jurassic Park? I tried swapping out some sound clips but the firmware update kept failing about halfway though. One thing I notice is that the official rom files from Stern are split into 2 files (first is 2,000,000,000 bytes, second is 333,163,520 bytes), but pinball browser says packing is not necessary since the total size is < 4 GB. Looks like maybe JP uses a different chunk size than previous titles?

I don't know if it's the same issue but I could never get BM66 to work using the SD method so I just edit the update files, almost every time it locks up once during the update. I just reset the machine and update it again to get it to work.

Many thanks to Oga83 for creating this program. It has helped make playing Munsters SO much more fun now that I've replaced many of the voice actor call-outs with original character ones. It feels and sounds like I'm playing a Munsters game vs. some generic machine with Paul Lynde as the announcer! So nice! Well worth the donation!

Awesome tool! Loving the options so far ! I'm trying my first attempt at adding my own music to GB. Got everything converted using audacity and got my file as close to a seamless loop as possible (within .002ms of source). I uploaded to the game, but the loop is no where near close to seamless during play. Am I missing something? Is there anyway to remedy this? Does this have to do with the fragment files? Thanks !

I can't speak for Ghostbusters but in batman 66 there are a couple songs that play from the beginning and then loop from the center of the song. This means you need a song that is very nearly the same BPM/tempo, then edit it to be exact, then make sure they line up perfectly. To line them up you'll have to find the ~5ms of silence at the loop point in the middle of the song and make sure your song will loop well from the same point.

Hmm that maybe quite difficult to achieve, but thanks for the tip...BTW, I don't suppose there is an easier way to test changes other than uploading and re-uploading to the machine over and over ?

A virtual machine is handy for such things, I use visual pinball.

True but you can't test SPIKE roms on the vpin.

Ah yeah, fair.

I've made a BUNCH of changes to the Munsters call-outs and replaced a lot of the Paul Lynde impersonations with actual sound clips from the show. I was looking for the Macro that the program says it creates, but I don't know where it is. I've sync'd my bookmarks, but I have no idea how to share the actual files. Also, does the sound editing have to be re-done if a newer version of code comes out? The sound files all have the same addresses from earlier versions to later ones, so I'm hoping there's a way to import them.

Starting to really like Munsters!

I have an error trying to opening Elvira 3 game code 0.83 with Pinball Browser 6.61 :

Does any buddy know what the Multiplier timer thunk thunk sound request is for SW. Their two sound bytes one when the multipliers time is running out and one when they finally do. Please help I can not find these sounds for the life of me.

+1

I will try that on a fresh file and will let you know.. Thanks!

It looks like you opened up the raw file that you can download from sterns website. I can not get the program to see that file I have to make a SD card out of that raw file first before pinball browser can see it. Is their something special you are doing?

Great! Thanks

Just recently donated for PinballBrowser, and I'm having a great deal of fun with it. I just changed some music for Batman '66; I really didn't care for the music that was included for "Enter Batgirl, Exit Penguin", so I swapped it with some Nelson Riddle music from the Batman movie that really swings. I still need to tweak it some, but I think I'll get it right.

Of other note, I thought I would change a couple of the Messages that are in the "How to Play" video in the attract mode. I changed a few words, and in a couple of cases a single letter, and found that they are now rendered as a single line of text across the bottom of the screen. One line is now so small and long it's almost impossible to read, so what is happening now is that where once there were two or three lines of text, now it's one long and small line.

Has anyone else encountered this, and if so, what did you do to fix it?

Thanks for your help in advance.

I'm not sure but maybe it's controlled with punctuation or a double space? I'd look closely at the original before changing it and see if there's anything that would tell the program to put a break in the line.

Yeah I was thinking that as well, although I'm fairly certain that I didn't change any of that.

I'll have to go back over it again later today and see what's up. Thanks!

The software is working properly. I didn't realize that you needed to save the macros every session to create/update the .pbm file. User error. Thx.

I do have a question tho: What does it mean to "Run the macros"?
