So when are you starting a thread on this crazy mansion? My Fridays feel so empty these days....

#4252 6 years ago

You could update us with pictures of your "Clean" shop!

#4255 6 years ago

I am confused- where are the flipper buttons? I am intrigued by your concept of a mulit level game but the playfield is real sparse so far

Looking forward to your organized shop and next build.

#4259 6 years ago

Jeeze, you guys just posted 4 pictures in a row and not one of them showed any signs of beer, occupational health & safety violations or minions. This thread has jumped the shark. Just kidding guys. Looking forwards to the next build.

Now, what the hell am I going to read about when I lie on the couch with a hang-over.

Quoted from pinballrockstar:

from the photo, it would appear 2 fellows may or may not be missing 1 thumb each from the last project.
notice how their are "conveniently" hiding 2 thumbs from the pic.
if true, y'all can complete 2 more pins before you'll need to recruit more people with thumbs.

also... banana.

I found one of the Amigos. Not much left to do these days now that their game is finished.

You know you are wasting your time right? Soon as you get started on crazy it will be in a big pile again.

#4265 6 years ago

Hi Guys!

I hope that you take some Fridays off now for R & R, or a long weekend on Holiday!

You deserve some time off.

But please dont take too long, as Friday nights are not the same here.....my wife is moody now, and wants to reread the thread.....my son doesnt care about sharing pinside with me, now that your done, even the 2 Bassets are sleeping in...

But Im excited about Crazy Mansion, and happy to volunteer some help, anywhere I can.
Lets see about doing a much better job on lights, if I can influence.

So I know that your not soliciting input......you are all more than brilliant in what you have achieved, but my mind wandered......Crazy Mansion.....Crazy Mansion.....what are you Amigos tossing around?

Well, you dont have to answer that, but I started thinking of Crazy Movies....Cuckoos Nest is one, nothing there I can think off.
So I started thinking sound track, and Early Oingo Boingo/Danny Elfman, is a crazy as it gets.

Forbidden Zone is just Crazy enough, more drug induced, but if you havent heard some of the sounds, or seen it...there are
no words to describe it.

I think even Lloyd has a a part in it.

Heres the opening, the movies on youtube....if you watch the movie, being drunk or stoned helps.

#4266 6 years ago

Its five months till dpo expo.
Thats a long time.
You can build a complete game in 5 months

#4267 6 years ago
Quoted from OLDPINGUY:

.Crazy Mansion.....Crazy Mansion.....what are you Amigos tossing around?

Well,something really original,goofy characters and humor,not a single thing that is licensed,just our stuff.
I have a little Boss recording studio with different voice effects,maybe we will even do the voices ourselves..
It took ages to find and convert the right clips for our despicable me pinball.
It will save a lot of time when you can simply record what you need.

Wait till you see what we came up with,we have to tie all our ideas together in one cool design and that is harder than slapping on minion decals...it has to have a vibe you know?

Yeah,an ugly game
We prefer to do it in 2 years

#4270 6 years ago

This is a brand new (way too much gb for it's purpose) usb stick..
It contains the main copy of DMPM code.
It is stored in a vault at a friends house.
Also have a copy at my car shop,at my parents house and my son's computer.
Broke my laptop once and lost a big amount of DMPM code.
It was horrible.
So that won't be happening again!

#4274 6 years ago

#4275 6 years ago

that case for the usb thumb drive needs to make the legend of zelda "chest opening" sound when you open it!

Hi Amigos !

...

Push it to githup or any other cloud service ! At least your backup will stay up-to-date !

Just a dump question, do you still play at it and update some code ?

Yes,absolutely.
We play it to find the bugs and fix the code.
It is a real fun machine to play,but still a lot to do,the flipper mechs are worn,so we need to rebuild 'em...remember the junk,high milage wcs we used?
A lot of mechs need service and polishing.
You are also never done working on a pinball.
We can also add features to the game if we think of something,that will absolutely be posted in this topic!
I got to the wizard mode "party ball" last time i played it,real tough to reach but rewarding!
