Thanks to Pancake for the plastic scans.
Thanks to HiRez00 for the pictures of the real table and for the wheel image.
 
The playfield's layout should be as close as I can make it to the real one, even if I made the playfield myself by redrawing and copying/pasting a lot :)
 
Notes about the table:
 
* The RAMPS: they are blue by default, but use the F12 menu to change the color. I simply don't like plastic ramps, I feel they make the tables feel cheap :)
 
* The Darker Levels: again, use the F12 menu to select the dark level you prefer. There are 10 normal levels and 10 warmer levels, if you prefer that look.
 
* There is a nice directb2s at vpuniverse made by Wildman.
 
Enjoy! :)

  • - Updated physics to my Rev3. Including physics materials, flipper code and slingshot shapes.

Thank you for always making these wonderful tables and sharing your hard work!

Thanks so much JP! I bought this machine new in 1989 and sold it in 1990. Now I get to enjoy it again and it looks and plays just as I remember.

Great work on this table.  It's nice to have an updated version over the VP9 version, thanks again!

From all of the tables that were only up till VP9 this one was on top of my list. Back in the day I was able to play the real one once at age12. Big thanks and big respect for your efforts JP

thank you very much Jp

Thanks a lot!
