I don't think it has been done before. A ball shadow is pretty cool.

George

In the script there are some minus at the x and y position, it is the size of the playfield/2

If it only can adjust the toy size it will be nice to adjust the size of the shadow if the ball are on a rail

Wonderful idea !
Changing size and location of Toy Shadow definitely can be done.

I will show you how...

Francisco, you should learn how to use the "miniplayfield" feature of BAM.
It was designed for grabbing a small playfield and scaling it and moving it onto the table.

But you can grab anything or group of things on and off the table .

In this case you grab the shadow toy inside a miniplayfield box and attach it to the tracked ball.

Because it is now a "miniplayfield" , you can use the miniplayfield code to change its
size and location in the code...

here is a demo table
I couldn't see your invisible shadow , so I put a grey colored light on playfield overtop of your
toy...

To Change Size, you can use:



Addendum:
I just updated the above link
If you press "B" on keyboard it should change shadow size
I used this code:

Thanks for looking it and the reply

O i see, correct me if I wrong, the toy must be inside the miniplayfield all the time, and now the miniplayfield going to follow the ball as be his shadow?

Correct !
Pretty cool !
You can attach anything you want
A shadow is very useful , great idea !

Mmm Im having some problems with this, the toy cant be found when when I use MiniPlayField_0.Position.,

Edit 1-2: for some reasom the toy is not visible if it is under the ball when using the miniplayfield or not Could it be the tga transparent?

Also why the miniplayfield are not traking the ball? Is moving but not allways under the ball

I had the same problem. Try making a visible shadow toy


Yes, I agree that the shadow isn't always under the ball, but that would be the case with a shadow based on light source...
You can play around with the position of the shadow as shown in the video below.
I used my cheatcode to change the scale of the shadow, but you can also adjust the scale on the fly from the BAM menu
When happy , you need to press control C in upper half of Miniplayfield menu to create
a new Dim Miniplayfield_0 and a new Set Miniplayfield_0

Whell after hours of try and error I foynd that the Center miniplayfield coordenates was the ones doing the mess.

I dont know how to calculate in a proper way, I just adjust it in q dev option untill I get the values ones, or so I think

The main thing of doing it with minipfs is to reduce the size of the shadow so when the ball are in ramps it drop a smaller shadow on playfield, I try with a fail of the 99.99% with a error of 0.01%. Shadow dont stay in playfield, I have foresee that in my mind, but couldnt script in a proper way and the shadows dont get smaller

So far:

For now I have a "momentary" roll back to square 1, use the old script and using the texture change so I change the shadowToy texture if its on the rail or on the ground
