      I have to admit that I had never seen this table until Rascal converted it over to VPX, but once I played it I knew it was something special. From the “call outs” to the “accelerator”, you have got to love this table.

      When I first started this build it was a complete mess, but along came Randr. He has taken this table to another level which I am sure everyone will agree. It is as much his table as it is mine and he has done so much work on this table that I could never list it all.

      Special Thanks to Flupper for his ramp tutorials.

      Bord for redoing and tweaking several ramps.

      BorgDog for all of his primitives and tables that he has created. (I cannot tell you how much you can lean from studying his tables and tutorials.)

      Rascal for his conversion to VPX and the original creators of the table in visual pinball.

      Rothbauerw for testing.

      If I left off anybody else please send me a message, so that I can add you to the list.

      I have also included a B2S.  If your a purist and hate it, please checkout Wildman’s.

              Thanks for making the almost ugliest backglass in history cool – and for the table of course. :good:

              Thank you also to the helpers.

                  What the flip.  Where did this come from?   Amazing work of art.  Light reflecting off ball while resting on plunger?!  I need a 4k PF.  This is inspiring.

                      Excellent for ball physics! The whole board was a great job, congratulations to everyone working on it! I quickly made a gameplay video:

                            I should mention there was zero resources available for this table but Shannon redrew playfield, plastics and even made a marching b2s very clever btw. I think this turned out very good considering what we had for references.

                              Outstanding job with the lighting, Shannon. Such great contrast. Table has a lot of visual depth. Nice work!

                                Randr is the lighting expert. He really took this table to the next level.

                                  Since I know randr so well … LOL.  He’s come a long way on his lighting skills.

                                  Thanks for the fantastic redraws.  The backglass is absolutely amazing.  And thanks to randr for helping build the rest of the table!  I know he invested a lot of time in it!

                                        Hi

                                        I need to “test” more (such a hardship :D ) and i did not get a screenshot this time sorry, however has anyone else managed to get a stuck ball on the upper right quadrant of the table around the ramp (i am 90% sure it was).  i promise to get better details next time however the ball got propper stuck and even forcing a tilt error didnt unstick it.

                                        (it was either stuck their or at the back of the mushroom bumper in the centre with the clown on it….. )

                                        sorry i know i am being too vague, will do better! but just mentioning it incase others have had the same thing  and not reported.

                                        thanks.
