Hey does anyone have Groni's latest versions of MM and LOTR FS? I really want to get my hands on those latest versions FS.

Thanks

Groni only allows mods after 60 days after release of his tables

yes i know but i don't know why these would fall into that category since they aren't brand "new" tables he did. There were existing Groni versions before. They are just new version updates of his existing tables.

Or has it not been 60 days since the original release of these 2 tables?

Basically I guess my question is why would table "updates" fall within the rule.

actually...correct me if I am wrong...I thought Groni's rule was 3 months which would be 120 days.

3 months = 12 weeks ~ 90 days ;)

Groni has told me I could release 60 days from the latest update. I will be releasing MM on February 8th.

to you it might be stupid but until YOU actually build one you will never understand how much work goes into a table of his quality. i personally don't know how he does it so fast.
so i can understand why he wants people to wait before they alter his work !

dosn't MM use steve's vppaint ?

it's an add on for visual pinball.
it uses transparent overlays over the screen you can search for it at vpforums for more info.
it has an issue of losing focus in hyperpin so you need to click the mouse on the table but it might be my system only.

When I release it, it won't use vpaint. It causes to many problems with HP.

So will it lose some effects?, couldnt find a definate answer to what actually vppaint does/is over at vpfourms

All vpaint does on this table, is put the decorative sling plastic/toppers on. Kind of like decals.
