      … Mouse around?

      Here we go, time to show you some pics of my current build, “Mousin’ Around!”. This will be a pretty short WIP thread as it’s not far to go to finish the table.

      I don’t know why but “Mousin’ around!” was always some kind of a special table in the VP world for me. It was my first build with VP9 about 6 years ago. So I asked OldSkoolGamer whether I can get the art resources of that build. Cosmic80, my very best friend in real life, a Photoshop pro, added some magic to recolor a lot of the areas of the playfield. And that was the starting point for the build.

      Here we are about three weeks ago, the very first objects on the playfield (or better on the schematics field)

      MousinAroundStart

      That’s the progress after about a week, after more VP Building and a lot coding.

      Schreibi is helping a lot. He is a wonderful and so much talented guy. Here he is building the cheese loop hut and the diverter arm at the top end of the table.

      Mousin komplett - S34

      And that’s the current state. Just a few days to go, some final touchup and finetuning. Have fun!

          Such a great game. Spent an hour playing one on location this last weekend and didn’t want to stop.

          Couldn’t be happier that you’re the guy building it (with Schreibi, no less). Keep up the great work!

              This is another table i did play a lot back in the 90’s, but never since, even not the vp9 table. Im going to have a blast when this gets released , it looks very authentic!

               

              Thanks Team for another piece of my youth, very much apriciated.

                      wow another great looking table! :good:
                      I’m looking forward to it.

                      Sorry I can’t hold back to ask.
                      As you have been involved in Laser War also, any plans for this one in the long term?
                      The VP9 table is awesome. :yes:

                        I really are hoping he will too. Because the upcoming Mousin’ around plays fantastic.

                          Right now I do not have the resources from OldSkoolGamer, but I expect to get them from him as he is a very cool guy. I‘m pretty sure to do Laser War when the resources are as good as for Hurricane or Mousin.

                            Hi Herweh,

                            Any thoughts of bringing your excellent Apollo 13 over from VP9 to VPX. Sega tables don’t get a lot of love, and the resources used for the VP9 version look quite good.

                              I bet this is one he plans to do….great table in vp9 for its time.

                                Would love to, but the playfield and plastics resources are just HD. I‘ll got them right from the FP version back then. So unfortunately no 4K in the backhand. As I remember the guy behind the table was francisco. Is he still around in the visual pinball world?

                                      the VP9 table used the same resources as the FP version,  and the FP has burnt in GI lighting

                                      given that we now have proper Sega (Whitestar)  GI emulation.  it does not matter how good those pictures look

                                      they are completely unusable unless you get the raw resources.

                                      even if you get the raw resources you need to replace allot of them

                                      I started to build this table but decided not to given that allot of the textures need to be replaced

                                      I redrew  a new decal for the ballrelease scoop

                                      I made a spinner primitive and made a new texture.

                                      I made new bumper cap textures,  but I don’t think the bumper primitives are correct they need to be changed to the same style of caps found on Monopoly.

                                       

                                      at first glace you might think that the PF image is more then good enough; allot and I mean allot of liberties where taken

                                      when it was redrawn. So it needs to be replaced with a more accurate (or better yet) an actual PF scan.

                                      my coded WIP,  I can make it fully playable but I will not build the table with the current PF image

                                      Capture

                                       

                                      and FYI  take a look at the image,  this how much I want this table.

                                      I have about 90% or more of the keyframes done in PIN2DMD editor.

                                      I will more then likely have a fully colored project before a VPX table is release.

                                      see a table you like help me find the resources so that I can finish it

                                          thought I share this my first run on the colored project

                                          most of the broken scenes from the video have been fixed

                                          aside Jackpot Gross and Thruster fired,   those are  mostly dynamic scenes that can’t be triggered

                                          they will be all red when I’m done.  An all pink default pallet(0)  helps me

                                          to identify broken/ missing  scenes
