Keep up the good work. Mods are the mojo that will keep the pinball industry vibrant. Hopefully Stern and others realize this, and write their code to make modding easier.

Keep up the good work. Mods are the mojo that will keep the pinball industry vibrant. Hopefully Stern and others realize this, and write their code to make modding easier.
Quoted from timlah79:I made a ton of progress today and wanted to share what I've done so far. I have a few more updates I've already implemented and more I want to do which are not mentioned below.
Paddock Entries - the callouts that play as the animation spits out the goals on screen
There are 13 variations possible here. i.e. stock actors saying, "xxx staff remain in the paddock."
I've replaced all 13 with the following either iconic or suitable movie lines. I had to use creative license here since I'm tied to the duration of the existing stock actors' callouts. It's difficult to explain why these work just from reading, you'd have to hear the transition from the paddock entry custom callouts to these, but in my testing today I'm very happy with them. Let me know what you guys think or if you have other ideas.You do plan to have dinosaurs on your dinosaur tour right? (Ian Malcolm)
These are aggressive living things that have no idea what century they're in. (Ellie Sattler)
The dinosaurs are breeding. (Dr. Grant)
Don't you see the danger inherent in what you're doing here? (Ian Malcolm)
What about the lysine contingency? (Muldoon)
They'll defend themselves violently if necessary. (Ellie Sattler)
Fences are failing all over the park. (Ray Arnold)
All the animals in Jurassic Park are female. (Dr. Wu)
Welcome to Jurassic Park (the explorer computer saying this -- While this line isn't necessarily "fitting" here I have wanted this to be included for quite some time and given its duration, this is the only place I've been able to plug it in)
Are those umm, meat-asauruses? (Lex)
Okay I'm gonna have to find the others. (Dr. Grant)
How could you ever assume that you can control it? (Ellie Sattler)
The shutdown must've turned off all the fences. (Muldoon)
Wow, that was just 8 hours ago that you mentioned possibly adding these. It would be nice, (amazing, really,) to have those x staff remain in the paddock segments replaced.
No intellectual property rules are being violated as long as we own the movie. Cutting and pasting the movie into our other personal use media constitutes fair use. The mod could be a problem with location pins.
If you don't own the movie, make sure you buy it before installing this awesome mod.
Quoted from timlah79:Note the "cannot violate intellectual property" bullet. I have no idea if my work falls into that exception. Has anyone ever won an award for 3rd party Audio/Video code customization? This award seems to be physical mod intended. Any other categories for A/V seem to be only for stock contributors.
TWIPY is all new to me other than that I did nominate someone for a physical JP mod last year. (Unsure if he's still making them but the Barbasol Can by this genius was my first mod and I think he won something for it, as deserved https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/jp-amp-jp2-light-mod)
With all this said, sure nominate away! I'm not worried at this point about the "unappreciative eyes." I have plenty of backing from all of you. If things go sour I have tons of tangible examples which prove that what I've done has been a benefit for JP owners, shared freely because it had to be done and because it would be selfish to keep it to myself. Thanks for the support!
