      Bally’s 1970 Double-Up, supposedly only 55 of these were produced.  I got turned onto this table by a restoration going on at Pinside by Pecos (who also goes by Alan).  I ended up deciding to take on my first playfield redraw in Illustrator with much help and advice from such characters as krugge99, hauntfreaks, bodydump, mfuegemann, and wrd1972 who was going through his first redraw as well and who’s thread I hijacked   Thanks All!

      Pecos has been very helpful with additional photos, sound bites, and even a very nice written and video run through of the complete ruleset, I wish I had that much info for all my table builds.  Be sure to check out his thread linked above (tells you how to play).  He also provided some great feedback from a short gameplay video I provided him.

      Hauntfreaks went above and beyond getting the backglass image from a low res dark image into something usable, getting the plastics cleaned up as well, and making me some nice primitives for these old school ball gate brackets.  big thanks.

      Enjoy, it’s a fun but merciless table.  Still things to tweak (always) and feedback is very welcome.

      directb2s file is included
      hold down left flipper to access the options menu (thanks for the idea loserman76 and gnance)

      FS settings in the table are for my cab which has the playfield in portrait mode, most of you will need to adjust the Backdrop settings.

          Table is a lot of fun.  Looks great especially with 4x anti-aliasing.  Thanks for all the tables Borgdog!  I have a lot of fun with all of yours.

                          lol, thanks.  TNA is mean and fast and kicking my ass and is definitely going to make me a better player.  I just can’t help hitting the start button, just one more time.. again, and again… finally had to stop and get something to eat, I was getting tired.

                                TNA is really a table I would love to get my hands on. Not going to happen in a long time it seems. Maybe I just have to take that trip I’ve always wanted over the pond :)

                                Btw. credit field in the supplied db2s isn’t working here.

                                Ups. Seems freeplay was set – my bad.

                                  Tilt in Minneapolis has one. You should wander over there. The place is great and so is TNA.

                                      If you are running the latest 10.5 beta versions they’ve been messing with the ramps and I’m not sure they have it totally fixed yet, but it evidently exposed an issue in the trough ramps I used in this one.  If you want select object Trough1 and change on the physics to 0 for the physical walls it will work.

                                      Or run in an earlier version of VPX, works fine in 10.4 or even earlier betas.

                                      I have made some changes on my copy and will update at some point when I’m confident they are done fixing with the ramps.

                                        How did I miss this update?  Double Up was great in version 1, can’t wait to try version 2!

                                          I have 10.5 and the newest version of this table. I even downloaded again to be sure but unfortunately I can’t play this table at the moment. As soon as I start a game I hear the sound of the table preparing the balls and then the ball numbers go from 1-5 without a ball ever showing up in the shooter lane. And then it says game over without giving me a chance to play at all :-(
                                          Any ideas?

                                            Increase the width of the shooter lane ramp by a few numbers. This was a problem introduced in 10.5.
