Recent Updates * Fixed issue in Bowling where game would freeze after game completion when less than 4 players playing. * Fixed ZAP to allow special events like zapping a player to 0 to finish before game state changes occur (next player / game over). * Fixed Skricket to allow special events and sound effects to complete prior to game state change. |

Started working on an integrated particle system for effects such as: * stars when you hit a mole in whack a mole. * Explosion and smoke effects when bomb explodes in Riskee * Snow in Stranger in the Alps. * fireworks / spark showers for winner animations Still trying to figure out some weird quirks. |

Updates Implemented new ParticleEffectBase class that wraps a MonoGame.Extended ParticleEffect in a DrawableGameComponent for easy adding to the component collection for drawing. ParticleEffectBase can be AutoTriggered or the entire effect can be given a lifetime. For example, if you want to set off a spark shower for .5 seconds every time something happens, you can set the lifetime to .5s and when you call .Trigger(location), it'll track lifetime and keep it emitting for 5 seconds, while the particles decay at their own defined lifetimes. Added an "OuchParticleEffect" that appears over the mole when you hit it in WackAMole. I should have a video demoing some of the particle stuff once I implement the "Explosion" particle effect in Riskee either tomorrow or Friday.. Progress is coming again..... |

THIS IS AWESOME!!! I've got 5 Skeeball Model S's with 3 available for testing and would love to be involved in this. I just started looking into this today and found that you have already done what I wanted to happen, and more! Will this plug into the existing harnesses or do you need to rewire? I look forward to following the thread! |

I have had the pleasure to test Major league SkeeBall and must say it updates and old skeeball machine into an up to date arcade machine. Games everyone can enjoy. Sounds and animation just add to the gameplay. I have stopped looking for a CPU to bring my machine back to original as the games you are able to play using this software gives an old machine new life with many new features. Well done thus far nipsmg Help test this software you will not be disappointed. :cheers: |
