Apache! (Taito 1978) full kit (table, backglass, media pack)
After a long work the first 1978's TTL version of Taito's Apache! pinball This ia a little different from it's SS '79 version for the system used an for a different backglass.
As there is no ROM (TTL is a tecnology between electromeccanical an digital) and because the table uses the same playfield layout as Gottlieb's 1975 Fast Draw, it is made from Loserman's Fast Draw EM table with some adjust.
A team work by: Loserman76: original table and script mod Editoy: table graphics redraw from scratch, playfield adjust, backlass from scartch Xenonph: original sounds Tio Italo: apron image and instruction translate jpsalas: finishing touches, backdrop, gi lights
Special thanks to Carlos Guizzo, Luiz Culik, Márcio Urso: image and info

Very nice! Thanks!
Currently playing around with FP to VP conversions. Nothing serious just trying to have fun.
Thanks Alessio, JP, Carlos Guizzo, Looserman and everyone involved in this project, the table is great (Now better with directb2s of course), the final result is very good and I found no flaws or mistakes.
Congratulations to all.
Wow, I got to say that you can sure tell that the backglass art is from a different time. A blonde woman tied up with her boobs hanging out and her jeans almost torn to shreds while a Native American is winking, smiling, and giving the thumbs up would be unimaginable today. I’m going to pass on this one. No offense to the authors is intended whatsoever, but the backglass art is just too uncomfortable for me. (Would love to put the table on my cabinet if it had a different backglass).
Where is the rom?
as in description this is 1978’s TTL version of Taito’s Apache pinball
TTL technology is a mid way from EM and SS, but as it is still electromachanic there is no ROM and our VPX table needs no ROM
next version in 1979 is a full SS but it is so rare that no one shared it’s ROM, that i know…
