Here is Bally’s 1978 classic Paragon for VPX. This table is a monster. Very wide, very heavy, very difficult and very fun. I hope this version does it some justice. I spent 2 hours playing it on location last weekend and think the VPX version mimics it nicely.
 
32assassin rewrote the script for me some months back. This was my first SS project at the time and I had a real Frankenstein mess going on. Thanks, 32a!
 
Make sure you run this with the latest VPX 10.2 build.
 
My view on this game: first I want to thank bord for his permission to publish this mod. Unfortunately 32assassin does not answered my pn, now 30 days ago. 1979, what a year in pinball history! I was 18 years old and the word was mine. And ALL amusement halls. Paragon is the perfect reflection of the mood of these times. I played Paragon the last time at CP's Pinball in South Roxana, MO, it was in 2017.
 
Here I offer you my version 1.0a with these changes:
° game
- new physics, cap optimized, I touched nearly everything
- new POV for cab users
- nearly all sounds are new
- all object sounds in operation
- slight game layout changes in order to reduce ball losts
- protective shields for drop targets, avoid dropping when hit from the side
° BG
- improved appearance of the plasma displays - thanks to Martin Brunker who gave the measures of       his KISS displays (he owns the real game)
- light messages adjusted in place and fonts 
 
- as ever zip contains game, BG and pics for cab users
