Ice Cold Beer Taito FS
This is Ice Cold Beer by Taito, FS edition.
This game haunted me for quite a while until I was able to find a decent way to emulate the rod and ball behaviour. After I had a solution for that, my first intention was to use the table ROM. Unfortunately bringing this ROM to life is still going on and so I decided to script the table logic.
Zany sent me good images of the playfield and the playfield glass and aldiode contributed high quality recordings of the table sounds.
Arngrim has implemented the DOF code using the configuration file "LMEMDOFTables.txt" that should be placed in Your User-directory.
He also created a static B2S backglass that is included in the download file.
True to the original machine, I use only 4 digits to display the score. The Highscore feature will track and display the correct score, though. Thanks to gtxjoe for the Highscore PostIt tutorial and the image files.
The rod is controlled by the Flipper keys (Up movement) and the MagnaSave keys (Down movement).
Remark:
- the game is running without the table ROM, so You need no more files to play
- at the top of the script there is a section to define the DIP switch settings, as I found no decent way to create a menu without using pinmame.
- You can set the game to free play and hide the Highscore sticker. The scores will be saved in Your User directory also if the sticker is not visible (..\Visual Pinball\User).
- there is an option to switch the Flipper and MagnaSave keys, if You feel the need
- if Your cabinet has no MagnaSave keys, You can either update Your hardware or try the new DoubleTab feature. Double tap Your respective Flipper key for the down movement
(to keep the initial grace time before a rod meovement to a minimum, please try to find the lowest DoubleTapTime, that is working for You)
Have fun and please use the support topic to post any findings and suggestions.
