Initial announcement from Jeff:
Initially was going to be a conversion of PBecker's VP9x table, but wound up using Greywolf's images instead since he gave me permission for them
Thanks to PBecker and Itchigo for the VP9x version.
ZIP includes a wheel and a new B2S
MOD only by permission of ALL parties involved. And for God's sake, don't include it as part of a commercial cab.
 
My view on Strato Flite:
Strato Flite was a big success from Williams, when I worked (in school vacation) in the late 70's at an amusement machines operating company the coin boxes of these games were FULL. And I loved to play it, as well. Now I love to play the VPX version I offer you here with Version 1.0c.
 
I made the following changes:
 
- new physic (cab optimized)
- slight layout change -> reduces ball losses between the flipper fingers and left outer side lanes
- many new (nearly all) sounds e.g. gate, stand up targets, kicker holes ....
- randomize for angle and force for the kicker hole
- all lights are adjusted in color temperature and brightness
- now the gates closes when the ball returns into the plunger lane
- the alternator is now triggered by earning 10 points
- improved ball and ball position in the plunger lane
- new timing for ball release
- new POV for cab use
- the black spot on the apron left is removed
- the plastics illumination stays always on except when tilted (the original behavior of all Williams EMs)
- I used my score reels, the animation of rotation is aligned with Jeff's score motor speed, so the count of e.g. 500 point is in look and sound synchronized 
- new fonts for illuminated messages
- each one light bulb for each score reel
- and all score reels become illuminated in game over state
- ZIP contains game, BG and cab pics
 
I made the following changes (1.0d):
- all object sounds in operation - makes a real difference
- bumper physics improved, more natural behavior
- ZIP contains game, BG and cab pics

All this in kind tribute to Jeff Whitehead.

It looks like there is an inconsistency in the highscore file definition.

If you delete the Highscore file (StratoFlight_74VPX.txt) it works on next startup.

After it is written again the problem appears again.

Runtime error
-------------
Line: 1948
Type mismatch: 'cdbl'
