It's sad that Olivier works so hard on this tool, then has to endure jackass trolls on Pinside that try to shit on him.

Keep up the good work, Olivier! The vast majority of us appreciate your work and have you back!

I've noticed that the sound volume seems very low when importing a new sound file into the Turtles game. It seems loud enough when you play it in the Pinball Browser, but in the game it's very muted. I've increased the sound to 200%, and not much change. Jacking it up any higher than 200%, and you start getting distortion.

I have the same problem wether I make the shortened clip myself, or if I edited the clip directly in Pinball Browser.

A couple other people I've been talking to regarding Turtles have had the same issue.

I always use Etcher. Works great!

I've never had any issues with Etcher.

Etcher is a cross-platform utility. You didn't mention which OS you are using. I'm using Etcher on the macOS. No issues with that tool.

Sounds like there may have been some issues with the Windows build, but Etcher is updated quite often. I'm sure it will be fixed. You could help by submitting bug reports.

Burning from Pinball Browser is not possible for me, because I use a Mac and have to go to virtualization to use Pinball Browser Unfortunately, the internal SD card reader is not on the USB bus, so can't be transferred into the VM like a Jump Drive or other USB device. I do my editing in the VM, then copy the image back to the host (Mac) and burn with Etcher. No issues with this process if someone reading this is also on a Mac.

Agreed. This is the most likely reason people are having issues with Etcher on Windows.

Since I have to copy the image file out of the Windows VM and onto the host Mac to flash, I would never encounter this problem.

You don't get rid of it. I believe 4.0 or higher is what Oga83 means.

Stern's website talking about flashing their stock images you download from them. In this case, Etcher works correctly. When you start modifying images with Pinball Browser, that's where Etcher can have issues (for whatever reason, no one knows). In cases where modified images are giving Etcher fits, Win32DiskImager or just the Pinball Browser software itself can successfully flash the card.

Probably not. I will point out that VMWARE Fusion 12 is now free! Grab it and get a copy of Windows from a buddy and you'll be in business.

Have you updated your Mac to Big Sur? It may require an update from Crossover.

Nailed it 100%

Dupe.

Fact check:

Apple market cap is 500 billion (billion with a "B" junior) higher than Microsoft's. I know a lot of you fanbois still think it's the 90's and you haven't adjusted to the new reality. The Mac's market share continues to grow, as Windows becomes the stagnant old man of tech. Ignoring that base is not wise. Having Macs in an enterprise environment, once relegated to marketing departments, is no longer an issue. Younger CEOs insist on using a Mac now. I watched this change within more than one large company of the last few years. If you had told me this 20 years ago, I would have laughed. The schools are even more predominately Apple than they even have been at any point in the past. Kids that grow up using iPads will buy Macs later in life. Nothing is going to save Windows at this point. They are too stuck in the traditional Wintel desktop model, which is slowly dying. Their future heavily rests on their cloud services, which are becoming less and less reliant on Windows. That does not bode well for the continued high market share of Windows.

Development tools aren't what they used to be in the 90's either. Cross platform development is relatively easy, especially with tools like Xojo, which can have one code base and spit out native binaries for Mac, Linux, and Windows.

To sum it up, it's not 1997 anymore, Virginia. It's more than fair for customers to ask about Mac native versions. They may not get it, but it's not absurd to ask.
