Williams Trade Winds Tradewinds 1962 EM

Welcome to my recreation of of the classic Williams Tradewinds from 1962.
 
This table has been a true labor of love and has been modeled after of the two real Trade winds machines that I own. Yes, I said two. Well really three since the third that was purchased for parts and then ultimately became my VP Pincab.
 
Back in the late 70,s, my father bought me a real TW and that is where the love of Pinball started. Like a 10 year old fool, I sold it to buy a video game console around 1982. Fast forward to around 2010, my father decided to purchase another TW for my kids to play. Of course, I had no objections. Hey, there is another one for sale. Oh we will just scoop that one up as well. Hey, there's a parts machine for almost nothing. Why stop now. So thats the short story. LOL
 
On this VP10 release of Williams Trade Winds, the PF was photographed and completely drawn to precise scale. Every object is precision placed. Every EM mechanical behavior exactly duplicated. Every sound recorded and applied right down to the sweet  music of all real EM machines, solenoid buzzing. Everything is here.
 
So who wants to go to Tahiti?  Enjoy.
Bill
 
Note:
This is a Beta version that has had various breakages fixed, and enhanced visuals and physics. I intend to give the table a big-time makeover when time permits. But even its current state, it is still very reflective of my real machines. Special thanks to Cyberpez and BorgDog for helping to make the new primitive playfield and sauce, works as intended.

Great story and really sweet build!  Unfortunately the ball lifter doesn't work with the standard cab configuration.  

it works with the 1 key.

Where did u fint b2s? Im searching for it.. and nothing.

It's (B2S backglass) included with the Table but you need to make sure it is same name as VPX file.

Also as Shadowsclassic  noted does not work with desktop. Don't know about FS. Nice looking table if I can get it working. PS. As BDaley noted you have to use the 1 key to lift the ball to shooter lane. Different setup than most are familiar with, but nice touch, if that is the way the original worked. 

Nicely done I like it. :otvclap:

Thanks

Wow! Love the original sound samples. One of the best EMs on VPX!

Very beautiful table and a fine artwork. Congratulations. Thank you very much.
