He was saying how he told her how he never wants to get married, but it isn't a big deal because he'll buy her a big house and hire a maid and pay for everything and that "she doesn't need to work" and "he'll take care of everything." Gary tried to explain to Artie how incredibly demeaning this was to Dana but Artie had no fuckin' idea what he was talking about. that's just classic artie, too. throw money at someone and they'll like you. subconsciously even he knew there was little to no redeeming quality to his personality

You can release liability for stuff that the Stern Show does. It's not the same thing as signing a contract that exempts them from illegal stuff. I don't necessarily have a ton of experience on the legal side but as someone who has worked in broadcast radio, there are things you can do especially w/r/t satellite radio that cover liability and the rules are totally different. It's fairly complex and probably costs a good penny in legal counsel on the part of Sirius, but that's what raked in the dough, so I'm sure that Sirius did its part in sufficiently covering their bases. It's not like the depravity of the show was totally unlimited, even at its raunchiest. It's like if an actress tried to sue an actor for a scripted sexual assault scene. Is sexual assault still illegal? Sure. Does the context qualify it as a sexual assault? Not really, but it depends on a lot of factors.

okay stern fans itt, if you could conceive a Howard Stern-themed pinball table, what kind of things would you want to see on it? currently designing a pinball table for just that purpose and it's been a lot of fun coming up with ideas for the goals of the table. maybe targets that spell "BABA BOOEY"? some kind of jackpot that involves Hitting Em With The Hein? we're currently in the stage of prototyping playfield elements and getting the actual layout of the game done, but I figure it would be nice to get the jump on the graphics and maybe come up with some pretty cool poo poo. right now we've got some core elements done, like ramps and ball physics: currently yes, everything looks like poo poo because we're still using placeholder materials and the graphic elements are mostly just for show/made us laugh when we were constantly testing shots and had to hear the "baba booey" drop every time the ball went down an outlane right now we've got the following ideas being implemented: -bumpers that have ETM's head on them and say "ack" when hit --------or spinners that have his head on them, haven't decided -a "Hey Now" ramp -a special Hein jackpot target some stuff is a really obvious inclusion in a Stern pinball table, but it's been fun to see what moments or elements of the show really fit with the idea of a pinball table. i've wanted to make a Stern themed table for a long time and use all uncensored clips just for fun because pinball tables don't usually swear at the player barnold fucked around with this message at 18:36 on Mar 9, 2018 |

Rupert Buttermilk posted:For ideas: the Artie ETM shutdown is an amazing idea. right now "DOUCHE" plays when the ball falls down the right out lane, and Scott The Engineer's "bullshit, man!" plays when it falls out the left the Zero Point Zero anti-bonus is also incredible, I can't believe I didn't think of that. I've started writing some of the scoring subroutines, and that's going to be in there for sure

Rupert Buttermilk posted:If the player barely shoots the ball at the start, so it doesn't even make it up into the board, have Robin say "Four inches is fine!" Hitting the bumpers x amount of times starts Walker Mode - a little screen animation plays and "Can I tell you my favorite Matt Dillon story real briefly?" plays. Then, you have 15 seconds to hit the bumpers as many times as you can, and each time the fart sound blasts through the speakers. The background music for Walker Mode will be the conga playing. Holy gently caress, I knew posting about this in here was a good idea.

It's gonna take some time - a lot of time, in fact - but I'm already so far in that it's hard to not want to bring this whole project to completion. Will probably need to outsource some graphic design for the playfield background and object textures, the rest for the most part can be a one-man show. Here's some test footage of what's going on so far (uh, definitely don't play this video out loud at work): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_21lNgZXes

Sand Monster posted:Anytime you have a score that ends in a 9, please make it audibly say "noine". The only problem with this is that incremental scoring by 1s is not very popular as it's generally not liked from a gameplay perspective and makes things more difficult for scripting events. Right now, for example, this table's lowest point value for a target is 250 and the highest is 50,000. Generally tables use 10s as their lowest number, so I could potentially have that happen if the score hits "noinety"?

Rupert Buttermilk posted:Also, you know when you watch a clip from the show, and it's got that grunge guitar/bass/drum loop playing, based off of the HowardTV theme? That's what should be playing in the background. I know music licensing can get crazy, so I realize this might not be feasible, but man, it'd be awesome if it could be done. I already tried to find even a regular copy of Brian Fay's HTV theme song and it looks like the people at Sirius really got on top of taking poo poo down because I haven't found a non-lovely suitable copy of it anywhere. Might have to go into the studio and record one myself. Just go for a Manson-themed song with a circus twist.

Smeep posted:I want to play right now! I could send you the VPX file and the music if you want. All you have to do is download Visual Pinball and put the two table files in the proper folder. It's really really unpolished but the core gameplay and table design is there, and most importantly the scoring. There's no ball or game states yet, so you'd have to keep track of how many balls you've played, but that's about it. It's playable in the current state. Rupert Buttermilk posted:I would love to help with this, if you need any! It's kind of what I do, outside of my day job. Hey, I'm all for a little volunteer work on this unlicensed and unofficial project. I can't make any promises that the finished table will have any of the polish that a proper table would as this is my first foray into table design, but I would definitely put any music to very good use!

Squashy Nipples posted:Everyone is forgetting that good pinball design is about progressions. So I suggest a main target that needs to be hit a number of times, think of the magic box in Theatre Of Magic or the castle gate in Medieval Madness. You're not wrong about progression. The major limiting factor is my relative inability to code VBScript, which is what Visual Pinball uses to script tables, and that doesn't even touch the real-world equivalents (it's a lot of machine code to control the solenoids and poo poo, Stern Pinball is also now using some C as well in some ROMs I believe). I am not a real pinball designer, just a guy who's spent a lot of quarters. I have to learn to walk before I can run, so I'm trying to keep the whole thing within the scope of what I can reasonably actually produce. Progression is a really really good thing, but it also exponentially increases the difficulty in programming. I think that defeating Wack Packers all the way up to Howard is definitely the way to go in terms of progression, then it just comes down to how many targets and combo shots I can fit on the table.

Odddzy posted:What's this about progression in pinball games? I don't know anything on the subject but is there a video somewhere that you guys can post that describes classic pinball tables and how to ''win'' them? It's all table specific. Look up any major movie pre-1998 and they probably made a pinball table for it. There are tons of videos on YouTube that show you a full tutorial on each table, I highly recommend anything by Bowen Kerins, a 3-time world champion who uploads a fuckton of tutorials. Here's an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlXFzn4uzGQ I just met Bowen in person at a pinball club I go to. His mind is loving crazy. He can hit any shot on any table at will. Watching him play almost makes me demotivated to get better. Also, if the pinball derail is getting to severe, just let me know and I can stop. But the idea of a Stern table was just too good not to post about here

Bride Of Pinbot is a classic. If I had to make a list for anyone interested in pinball, these tables are 100% certified Must Plays: -Funhouse -Pinbot (and its sequels, such as Bride) -Terminator 2: Judgement Day -The Addams Family -The Twilight Zone -World Cup Soccer -Tales of the Arabian Nights oh, and Howie of course, my Howard Stern themed pinball table, when it becomes a real thing. you'll find it in all the arcades worldwide, I'm sure

quick update on Howard Stern Pinball: the playfield design is more or less finalized, I have rudimentary gamestate code that right now handles a 3-ball, one player game. there is now a jackpot bonus for hitting all the targets. the gameplay isn't very deep yet, but I'm getting the basic functions of the table working before trying to nail down the complex stuff. next I'm gonna start designing the actual board itself, the playfield elements, all graphic design stuff to make it look nice and remove the placeholder textures from before. still torn between a caricature of all the HSS characters in the center and that hilarious cutout of Howard with the crazy afro hair

Odddzy posted:You should post some pictures whenever you want. There are some a few pages back, but here it is. The visuals are really lovely because I've mostly just focused on the physics and playfield design, as well as the scripting. The really cool thing about Visual Pinball as an engine is that it has the ability to export solid blueprint files, so that you can actually print it out with a large format printer and turn your digital tables into real life equivalents. Here's what the Howie blueprint looks like: Pictures don't really do the table justice because right now a lot of the game relies around sound effects, lights flashing, and things that pop up on the back display. Kragger99 posted:*raises hand* Yup, I'll do some alpha/beta testing if needed! If you're genuinely interested in giving Howie a shot in its alpha state, all you have to do is download the Visual Pinball X engine from here: http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=11573 I can send you the Howie zip through Google Drive or whatever, then all you have to do is extract it and plop it in the Tables folder wherever you installed VPX.
