The Thing John Carpenter original ivantba

John Carpenter's The Thing is an instant classic movie in the horror genre. The visual concept and the atmospheric sounds have not been worn with time...
In spite of its appearance in 1982, it can be stated from the perspective of 37 years that the time elapsed has only further improved.
About me one of the most important horror "experiences" of my childhood is the movie, which is still able to frighten my nerves to this day:)
Ennio Morricone is a world famous musician who has made the great OST.
The exquisite horrorist memories of the past have encouraged me to make a pinball version of it...

An important thing: (the contents of the music library -mp3 files- are placed in the following folder: Visual Pinball\Music
There are two types of music to choose from into the game. Anyone who prefers the music of the original 1982 Movie Theater doesn't have to do it, because this is the default.
If you prefer the Metal theme music, do the following: enter the script and jump to music settings (line 147). Change the following line (159,160,163) to this: "The Thing ost music.mp3" to ---> "The Thing metal music.mp3"
So, a complete multimedia package is included with the compressed file. Among others, the backglass (directb2s) file. PinballX desktop and cabinet files (audio, pictures, flyers, instruction cards, wheel, etc.)
Original (my resource) table: Ali v1.0.1

Thank you to the Master Jpsalas for allowing the original table's to be costumized.
You can find the necessary rom file to start the table here (ali.zip):

What's New in Version 1.0a (See full changelog)
- 8 new sound effects have been integrated.
Hello Pevides! Libraries made for pinballx or other front end cross-system are a bonus for everyone if they don't want to look for multimedia content. This is optional only and does not need to be used.
For someone that wants to install more than 1 table each time (all of us), when someone opens your folder it`s really confusing. All of your tables have a lot of folders and a lot of musics. It`s really hard to know what is necessary without having to come here to know what`s the purpose of all the musics of the diferent folders etc ! Sometimes less is more.
One of the best movies ever with a fantastic soundtrack. Thanks for making this. Looking forward to updates!
Anyone have a circle wheel icon for this?
Parfait !
how come when i download this i dont get the b2s or any other files. just the table??
Thank you, this table looks and plays fantastic!
Really nice work! Crunching snow sound for the slings was a particularly inspired choice.
thancks ivan,
One of the best horror films ever, above Alien for me. If you love 'The Thing', you must also be a fan of 'Dawn of the Dead' 1978...
