      This is basically a total rebuild of my Fire Queen table I had/have posted over on VPF.  Someone gave me a mostly complete playfield redraw a long time ago and I forgot who that was, so thanks to anonymous donor.  I finished the redraw mostly by adding inserts and background, got a new backglass image off the internet somewhere, found some scans of a couple of the plastics and some are lower res images (I can’t believe I used to own vulcan and didn’t scan the plastics before I sold it. bah).  Hauntfreaks did some of his magic and made snippets for the db2s, bord made his rendered shadows/lights and a few textures (thanks guys!), and I redid a bunch of the scripting to correct some earlier scoring errors.  Oh, and that was after sizing it correctly as I had made this before I found out about Gottlieb’s switch to 42″ playfields sometime in ’76 when they also went to a deeper cabinet.

      hold down left flipper to access options menu before starting a game (idea borrowed from loserman76 and gnance)

      directB2S file included

      *ps. I may at some point do the 4 player Vulcan version, but there are some differences mainly in light animation that would take some ciphering, and this bg is much better.

                    Ha. I was actually thinking about that at one point while playing. Probably because they looked extra good. :good:   Bord !

                              I finally got a chance to boot this pin and wow, played it over an hour.  Amazed at the realistic feel on how it hits each and every object, just feels totally right!  The look is also all kinds of awesome, thanks for revisiting your table and adding a level of polished that surpasses all expectations.

                               

                              Folks, if you are a fan of EM’s you seriously need to try this out.

                                I had a buddy of mine come interstate to visit and stay the last three days, and he simply couldn’t stop playing this game – it was the game he went back to over and over of hundreds of tables on my cab.

                                This is a beautifully done table. One of the nicest EM’s in VPX. We’re old school pinballers, so we love the EM’s and this is a very welcome addition!

                                (his best score and still the highest on my cab is 322k. Pretty good score on this game!)

                                Thanks BorgDog, great table.

                                  I’m not a big EM guy but this is one sharp looking table.

                                    Attached is a POV for Cab users, if anyone is looking for it..
