Wow – that Zepplin table looks pretty cool. Definitely would work on that one if really good images of it popped up.

As far as music, there’s not much I don’t like. I could listen to Zepplin or Pink Floyd alongside some Lindsey Stirling, Bach or Beethoven and not think twice about it.

ball rolling was the timer name – because I used Allknowing2012’s table (with WRD1972’s modifications) without changing the objects/timers not realizing Allknowing2012 used different names for some common stuff.

Anyhoo, if someone happens to stumble upon really good images for those 2 lower plastics on the pre-production (lower pop bumper)…[Read more]

posted update that includes fix for missing materials on the bumpers and the ball rolling sound.

Ok, so next in the coming soon pile is “Flipper Fair” by Gottlieb. Add A Ball machine with a backglass ball “flipper”.  It’s in the final testing stages now.

I do not have a suitable playfield image for the proto version. If one pops up, I’d definitely like to do it as well.

Now thinking about it, I could probably just use the existing playfield to do the center pop version. But I realize now that the big hurdle is those 2 plastics at the bottom. I’d need good scans or redraws of those to be able…[Read more]

sounds like your save file is somehow corrupted or missing. Look for this file in your user folder: RackABall_62VPX.txt. delete that and re-run the table. You may get a cdbl error afterwards. run the table once more and you should not see that

ok, I’ll take another look. Albert over on the other forum suggested using the other sounds that I don’t normally use. So expect another update sometime today.

uploading an updated table. includes sounds on the pop bumpers (which I forgot when I redid the code for them) and a hopeful fix for the extremely rare ball trough issue of balls getting kicked out

Yes – even the real machine is wicked tough – even if you set the target lighting option to liberal. Also, some machines I’ve seen images of have extra posts by the flippers to reduce that center drain size.

Playfield meshes aren’t going to happen to my releases until I figure out this blender crap – that or the VP Devs create a true kicker object that removes the need for creating these meshes.

hmmm…. I thought I fixed that. I’ll take a look and post an update.

check out RoguePinball.com – I bet that is where you will find this and many other woodrails. PBecker has done a lot of these and you’ll find them all there – desktop and cab versions. All play in VP9x (some 9.21 and others in 9.9x)

As far as Odds & Evens, you never know :) – there is a version of Monte Carlo but the playfield and ruleset is different. I need to see if I can actually touch up the playfield to make an Odds & Evens one out of it.

And it looks like I have another table in my official build queue (sorry it’s not Odds & Evens) thanks to one of my suppliers -…

Likely I will put out an update to include a pin that will keep the ball from sticking there.

Really the credit for these unique tables (Barbarella, Caddie, Concorde, Tam-Tam, Wheel) goes to Akiles50000 – he did the original VP9 tables.

Let’s see –

5 of them are conversions of some unique VP9x tables done by akiles50000

2 are Williams’ (pool themed from the 60’s and a 2 player “lower playfield pop bumper table” from the 70’s)

a couple Gottlieb’s wedgeheads from the early 60’s

one that only existed for a cheesy movie

oh and one EM that was also released as a SS machine f…[Read more]
