Preparing for Expo. We're going to be testing and tweaking code for the next couple of weeks and then we'll freeze it. I hope to freeze it sooner than later. The day before pinball at the zoo was when the jukebox code was finished. Well, literally 7pm the night before. That was cutting things too close. I've also got to figure about what I'm going to say =) I could talk for hours about this project. I want to keep the seminar as interesting and interactive as possible. I'm really hoping some of our secrets will come to fruition before expo but I have no control on their timing. I'm planning on showing:
General Operation
Jukebox
Playfield Auto Detection
Nude pics of Fat Tony (oops, wrong thread)
I also need to make sure my playfields are perfect. My RFM upper left ball-block and the flap ramp are a little sticky. I did some work on the episode one playfield and it's about 100%
I also ordered another processor which should come in today. Our current target processor (athlon 4400 X2) will probably disappear soon. I'm going to test a X2 5800 and see if the faster speed causes any issues (there should be none.) By the time Nucore is release that will most likely be the new low-cost dual-core processor.
