Criterion to be listed as modern table

[Guest]

Hi!

What is the criterion in PinballX for a table to be listed as a modern table? Is it the year, or the SS?

No matter, not every table I call a modern one is listed as modern.

Is there a modern table list in PinballX now? News to me. It's whatever you consider modern. I'm not aware of any consensus on what is a modern pinball. So, pick whatever you want. Some might say SS, others a real dot matrix display, still others anything after collapse of Williams/Bally, still others full video score display (Stern Spike II, Woz, i.e., today's stuff).

The type tag in the xml holds SS or EM but I don't know that there are any built-in lists based on the type tag. Maybe there is but I disable the default filters in the Settings wizard so that I can manage clutter in the main menu.

I might be wrong but I'd assumed the modern table filter is applied to anything with a Year entered as 2000+ in Game Manager.

As far as I can tell there is no built in filter on the Type tag (so I don't even bother filling in that field anymore)

Yes, its based on the year.
