Pinball-Browser : Customize your game !

Quoted from thundergod76:
This is how I do it also and HIGHLY recommend this method. SD cards are cheap and when modifying game code you should ALWAYS have the factory as a backup. Not worth the gamble possibly corrupting the factory SD. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but Stern's updates are just additions to the already written code. I dont think they are the entire game code.

That's correct for .spk files which only contain what has been modified.
However, SD card images contain everything.
That's why PB works better with SD card than with .spk files.

The updates are available on the individual game pages.

Yes, you can do it that way. But it's nice to just have the modified SD card and Stock SD card loaded and ready to go.
I download the SD image from Stern and duplicate the file on my computer and label one stock and work on the copy version in Pinball Browser.

I have a new SD card. How do I take the ROM downloaded from Stern and merge it with the file from Pinball Browser?

I'm starting to get confused as to how all these files fit together.

I'm working with Metallica and have a MTL180.bin file that I've edited.

Running v7.01 using CrossFire on MacOS Mojave - very new to Pinball Browser, just downloaded it today. Trying to replace sounds but when I import the new wav file and list of sounds is reloaded the application seems to hang. If I force the application to close, then re-open, the sounds I imported are there, so it appears be working, but is hanging when it reloads the list. I get the same behavior if I try and sort the list by size, etc. Anyone else experiencing this?

Ignore my post. Metallica doesn’t use an SD card apparently, so I copied the .BIN file to a USB drive and going to update it that way.

It takes my laptop about 30-45 seconds to embed the song during which time it appears to hang. Just wait it out and it should come back.

Thanks - it was hanging for 10+ minutes, but I think may have been related to ffmpeg - I had accidentally placed the MacOS build for ffmpeg in my Pinball Browser folder. Replaced it with the Windows exe and it seems to be working now. Will report back if it starts hanging again.

So I'm messing around with Metallica and was wondering if there was a faster way for me to be making my changes. Right now, I make the changes and then update the code, which can take 25-30 minutes.

Then I'll play a test game, find out I need to increase the volume of a song, or forgot to change text somewhere and it's back to the drawing board and it's another 25 minutes to update.

Is there a faster way?

PinMAME would be faster but if you had that set up you'd already be using it. Setting up a PinMAME machine would take some time but if you're doing this a lot it would be a time saver.

Oga…I'm trying to swap a video on a Batman 66 using PB V7.01. When I import the video the resolution changes from 800x600 (default) to 800x602 leaving black bars on the sides of the video. Also, the video speed is noticeably slower than it should be. When I import the original Stern video back the resolution is still incorrect at 800x602. The black bars on the sides are not there. However the video is still a little slow. Thanks in advance for any help.

I had to use Handbrake to resize the video clips I took from Star Wars, from the initial widescreen format to the aspect ratio Stern used. You can tweak the output size and even choose where the video image gets cropped.

I'll look into this.
In the meantime, you can use v7.02 and its new "Import file (no conversion)" function.
This will prevent PB from using FFmpeg to convert the video.

I think I fixed the problem. In earlier versions of the software, if a sound clip was too long it automatically got cut off. Now I think it speeds it up to fit the whole clip in. When I shortened the length of the sound file, it played correctly.

Hi mettle64,
i just downloaded the Iron Maiden Pro v 1.06. I was able to open SD-Image and the Videos 12? i was able to select and view.
Do you have ffmpeg in your folder? ffmpeg.exe, ffplay.exe and ffprobe.exe?
The videos are quite big. The first one with 3900frames will take a lot resources opening (it seems only to be fog?).
switching between Videos takes on my machine about 15-25 Secondes.

i am not at my machine with the license, so i can not test to the export or the import.

hi mettle64, are you using the bookmarks?
i think there is something wrong with the video Bookmarks, they are an duplicate of the Sound Bookmarks.
Like "You Suck!" when you press this in the Video Section you get an Error with Value of "597" this will translate to the 0x255 HEX value of the Sound.
Same with "Welcome Warrior" Value 688 -> 0x2B0 in HEX for the sound Value.

Have you tried the + and - Hotkeys or the Scrollbar to change Videos?

or typed in the top the Values for Videos e.g.

0x0
0x1
0x2
0x3
0x4
0x5
0x6
0x7
0x8

Ok quick update. No matter what I do I cannot get my replacement video to import properly with the correct resolution and video speed (way too slow). The strange thing is I'm using Stern video clips that are already in the code but not being used. I'll try Handbrake next. I'm sure Oga is working on a permanent fix. Will keep posting results.

If you are using the "Import file (no conversion)" function, you have to make sure that your video has the same characteristics than the original one (resolution, bitrate, duration, ...).

It seems that the file you're trying to import is not supported. Try to export a sound script to a .wav file and then import this file.
If you still have an exception, try another sound engine. See the faqfor more informations about sound engines.

If Pinball Browser triggers an exception, do not post all the details. This only makes the thread more difficult to read
Just explain what you were trying to do and post the first lines of the "Exception text" section.

Quoted from No_Pickles:
In earlier versions of the software, if a sound clip was too long it automatically got cut off. Now I think it speeds it up to fit the whole clip in. When I shortened the length of the sound file, it played correctly.

There were no changes on this. The sounds are still cropped/silenced when there are too long/short.
Which game, firmware version and sound-script id is it ?

Quoted from oga83:
It seems that the file you're trying to import is not supported. Try to export a sound script to a .wav file and then import this file.
If you still have an exception, try another sound engine. See the
faqfor more informations about sound engines.

It’s an mp3. I thought that was supported? I’ll try Wav.

Thx

Generally speaking, yes. But it depends on the sound engine.
MP3 is only supported by "Media Foundation" and "Windows Multimédia".
For example, if you are using PB on Windows XP, the only available sound engine is "Legacy" and it does not support MP3.

Quoted from cabal:
hi mettle64, are you using the bookmarks?
i think there is something wrong with the video Bookmarks, they are an duplicate of the Sound Bookmarks.
Like "You Suck!" when you press this in the Video Section you get an Error with Value of "597" this will translate to the 0x255 HEX value of the Sound.
Same with "Welcome Warrior" Value 688 -> 0x2B0 in HEX for the sound Value.
Have you tried the + and - Hotkeys or the Scrollbar to change Videos?

Thanks! My only experience has been changing songs on Maiden so I got used to using the bookmarks for navigation! I'll try using the scrollbar instead.

Quoted from oga83:
Try to rename the "<FirmwareName>.dat" file to "<FirmwareName>.dat.sav" : this will remove all the bookmarks.

Will do, thank you for the tip!

Thanks again, Oga. Your software helped make the game so much more enjoyable for me!

So, did you import the vids, then change the audio files as well... importing edited audio files that sync with the vids? Noob to this whole thing and just don't know what to do or where to start... Just want to change the Yoda drain vids

Quoted from oga83:
If you are using the "Import file (no conversion)" function, you have to make sure that your video has the same characteristics than the original one (resolution, bitrate, duration, ...).

Thanks for the additional info!

Managed to browse the videos in Iron Maiden Pro 1.06. So far, I've only got access to (most of) the attract mode videos. Having a lot of fun playing around with them, but eager to edit some in-game video as well.

Good afternoon oga83 ! I'd like to modify musics on whitestar firmwares, but since musics use loops, and sound different, I don't know what music will be modified. Can you fix loops for musics in whitestar firmwares? No matter if that take a while
