Awesome. Yes the "German" on WoW is unbearable too. I could not understand a single word when I heard it at Ully's

finally it is running in a dedicated cab.

We will start with the production of the final versions in early 2014. Gorf is also ready to roll.

Here some Software-Updates about the Gorf-Kit

it features:

The Hardware-Dips are exchanged to Software Dips - you can adjust them all in a DIP-Menu
(See attached Pix)

(btw: we will have this "software-dip" as standard...so in all our savekits there is no need to change dips on the pcb)

2 separate highscore-tables (if you play with 2/4 ships or 3/6 ships)

you can choose if all the highscores (5) are saved, only the first, or only the first 3....
you can change language (english / german)

FULL freeplay in attract mode !

you can choose if you want to have the freeplay with 2/3 or 4/6 ships (depends on the dip-setting)

the software seems to be nearly done... (tested on the real hardware as well)

there is a need for some more testings.....

anyway.... no i need to design the pcb in eagle....

thats all for now

Greetings
Jochen

GREAT WORK! I really want to see that high score upload to the internet. If you can do that for most games and have some sort of leaderboard it would change classic gaming!

Yes. Jochen told me that we will make our prototype save kit in a few days. We will use Popeye for it. It will be as close to the final version as possible.
The prototype has to be tested under real conditions in my cab. We also have the URL for the highscore-website and the basic layout to display the scores (for your gameroom or for global comparisons.

I think this is going to be really cool. Highscore upload is just an option. People can take it... or they can stick to the save-only-version. Still this version will have the advantage of saving without battery and the on screen dipswitch-settings.

I will ask Jochen to go into details here. He is much more into the technical stuff than I am.

Jochen did some work last night and finished the prototype of our highscore savekit for the old Midway-machines Space Zap, WoW and Gorf.

It is actually going to happen, here is the first pic:

The brindge at the top will change in the final version.

This is amazing work.

Can the highscores be uploaded to a website? How does this work? Can we choose a website we want providing there is code to support it?
