Heat Wave (Williams 1964)

This is a VPX conversion/rework of my VP9 table. It has been updated with rubbers, rolling sounds, etc.

 

The game uses a ball lifter.  Press Right Magna Save or Start to add a ball to the plunger lane.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. One of the few VP9 tables I had been hanging onto because I enjoy it so much. I’m so glad to see a VPX version. You rock!

This game is awesome. Thanks @DarthMarino for bringing it to us! I love how smooth you got the swinging target animation.

Here is a quick DIY hack for anyone that wants to add shadows to their playfield without much work.

• Download this file.
• Import ShadowHW.png in the VPX image manager.
• Create a new flasher that covers the entire playfield and give it these settings:

Your results should look something like this:

Also there are a few elements that you can adjust for accuracy:

• Only the bottom rubbers should have slingshots. Remove the slingshot marker on walls Sling1, Sling2, Sling3, and Sling4. Set these walls to not visible.
• Change line 1515 in the script to Sub Slings_hit(idx)
• Change leftflipper and rightflipper length to 90, base radius 21
• Change lflogo and rflogo scale to 100,100,100
• Change lines 508 and 509 to
  • LFLogo.ObjRotZ = LeftFlipper.CurrentAngle+90
  • RFlogo.ObjRotZ = RightFlipper.CurrentAngle+90
• Align lflogo and leftflipper positions, do the same for rflogo and rightflipper

Ultimately the game should be given proper dimensions (964×1974) but that requires a little more work.

Hope some of that is helpful. The game is a lot of fun!

good job DartMarino,thanks.
It is very nice to be able to add creations of pinball machines from the 60s to the collection.

I have changed the bells for these others:

Nice table … i´ve started to adjust the lightning too; because i´ve noticed the environment settings didn´t allow light casting to the ball, changed this now and adjusted lamps to cast shadows and ball lightning in “hauntfreaks” style. not finished yet; just testing …

Thanks for the nice table.  I made a modification that might be worth testing.  I changed the flipper strength to 500 from 1500.  This seems to play better/more consistently with other action on the table.

Thank you DarthMarino and everyone else… Duglis, loserman76, editoy, arngrim, bord. I love all the older tables, and this one is a great addition to have. Appreciate everyone’s hard work and continuing to just make everything better.
