[QUOTE="netizen, post: 40671"] [b]re: Powerball + Skin[/b] I am having none of the Powerball issues you report jaredmorgs. My Powerball comes out of the gumball machine a noticeably different colour and texture, it is an off white and non reflective, and there is a flashing POWERBALL notification of the HUD while it is in play in addition to the POWERBALL announcement. When the Powerball sinks it takes 2 balls before it comes up in the plunger. As soon as it is in the plunger the HUD flashes POWERBALL, and the Announcement plays. When I had a multiball with the powerball I had the POWERBALL announcement trigger anytime I scored with the Powerball. The one thing I did notice with the Powerball that I am not sure if it is a part of the rule set in TPA is that in "Beat The Power" it isn't responsive. Is this to simulate it being a ceramic ball like on the real table? I haven't experienced any slowdown during multiball, no matter which one I have activated, but I don't do a FPS display during play either. The Jackpot seems to stop gameplay for me temporarily. If I get it with the first ball launced in a multi ball it will stop launching balls until the animation is finished. If I get it during multiball play it will freeze the balls when they go up ramps or when they go into holes etc. Once the jackpot animation is finished everything is go time. As far as the skins go, for me, to get the regular [default] shiny ball again I just have to select the dull grey looking skin in the extra menu, or restart the application. The dull grey looking patch is the shiny silver ball skin. [/QUOTE]
