Cabinet mode?

Juuuussstttt kiiiiddddiiinngg, but it would be interesting…don’t you think.

I feel like so many people have Atgames pinball machines (ALPs) nowadays it really does make the effort worthwhile.

Hi, we prioritize features that benefit everyone. So a TATE/VERTICAL mode yes. We cannot *officially* support cabinets. Because cabinets are non standard, mostly maker projects. The features it can have don't end, shaker motors, knockers, light fx, dual screen, analog plunger, etc.

That said, people have enjoyed the game in their cabinet using the options that were provided in DT.

Awesome to hear that people are utilizing it on their cabinets I might try this myself!

it's amazing to play demons tilt in cabinet mode and i'm sure this one is going to be just as great

Cabinet mode was a highly requested feature in DT but it never happened.

I think virtual pinball cabinets are more popular and more common than the dev realizes, especially as a percentage of owners of a niche category of games such as digital pinball.

I play DT on in my cabinet and it works well enough. I simply use a JPEG I created as a backglass. Empty DMD screen.

Providing a "cabinet mode" would be a lot simpler than the dev makes it out to be. You do not have to provide support for lights, knockers, surround sound, etc. That would be awesome, no doubt, but a simple cabinet mode that lets us assign 2 or 3 screens to the playfield, DMD, and backglass would suffice. I imagine the only extra work would require that you break the DMD/score screens away from the playfield and allow us to move it around.

Demon's Tilt in tate is the only way to play, only wish the UI turned without going into portrait mode. If it is possible can we get audio channels separated? If we could get SSF working it would be GOATED! Either way if WIZNWAR is selling im BUYING! -P.S. I also have an Atgames Legends Table

I dunno if specifically catering to the AtGames crowd would be wise time investment. Sure a bunch of Legends tables were sold when places like Sam's Club put them on heavy discount for clearance, but I've checked the market and there has basically been zero inventory available for weeks, going on months, and the only Legends tables readily available are highly marked up in price, far beyond the already hard to justify MSRP. It becomes another custom kit scene outside of AtGames Legends (honestly the only consumer digital table to get it right).

All that said, thank you for pursuing a vertical mode!

the main problem i think with playing this in an actual cabinet is you just have to nudge too much in this game. it just feels better to play with a gamepad in my opinion. pinball controls won't give you near enough control of the ball.

>prioritize features that benefit everyone
Absolutely agree on this. Would rather more robust features, multiple (in-game) tables, ect over cabinet support, although it would be amazingly cool.

Still, while cabinets might be niche, a much larger number of users might have multi monitor setups, which would benefit cabinets as well, I would think. Personally would love optional extra stats or info on a 2nd monitor.

A simple cabinet mode I think would be worth it. Just allow a two screen setup where the score stuff can be on another screen. At the very least, give us tate mode for the UI and title screen.

These features are in for EA.

Cabiinet mode with SSF would result in an immediately purchase, until then will wait.

Please at least let us move the HUD to another screen!

Im playing in my modded atgames legends cab and its awesome in portrait mode. Nudging can be mapped to the joystick but when I do that I lose ui nav on the joystick
i believe you had that as seperete configurable inputs on demons tilt
Can you please add that for this game?

Other feedback I'd like to add is when in portrait resolution and with tate mode checked everything is so zoomed out its hard to see and much less exciting. I prefer portrait without tate even with the action on the far right and left being cut off. Ideally, when the ball goes off the main vertical playfied I'd love to have the game autozoom so I don't lose out on the action.

I'd like to add that the atgame legends pin was so successful the company released a mini version and soon to be releasing a next gen product.

It's hard to describe my points. I'll try to take a video. Please don't force tate.

Update I can map nudging to the legends virtual pin joystick and still have UI nav work just fine.

At this point your two games are the most fun I'm having on the legends pin.

Can you please have a second screen for pinball backglass and move the overlaid score and other details to the second screen? This would be epic.
