Year: 1978
Permission to MOD?: Yes, without approval

Converted to 10.6 VPX from destruk's VP8 table.
Apron decal modified from (mfuegemann,32assassin) Pinball Champ.
Desktop scoring from (Kiwi) Farfalla.
Backglass image from Greynurse's B2s.
JPSalas: his methods and influence are everywhere.
 
The playfield image from the original was pretty bad so there are lots of redraws and whatever I could do to make it pretty.
Game play is pretty good and it looks Ok on a desktop. Full screen could be dialed in better.

VERY Nice table! Thanks to all who contributed. 

[Thalamus]

Thank you !

I can't hear any rom sounds in the game. In the rom test of the pinmame setup program however,  they can be heard.

 

In the default options menu (via F1) the sounds are enabled.

 

Has anybody an idea?

[gamemodder]

Rom might be broken

Rom might be broken

 

I just re-downloaded the rom from another site, and now it works.

 

It's still strange, because the other rom had sound in the rom test (the filesize, however, was smaller).

 

Thank you, gamemodder!

[gamemodder]

No problem. Ive had that problem a lot

[Slydog43]

I get nothing on my pinmame display (might be a bad rom)

my biggest issue is no b2s is being displayed (I do have the directb2s)

 

any ideas?

 

PS: Can't believe it, it was just a naming issue for the display of the B2S, just the blank DMD now which I bet is a bad rom.  Can someone upload the rom here?

Are you gonna make any more zaccari pinball tables?

[flstclasic]

I can’t get fast flips to work. I changed solenoids to 2 and added vpmInit Me to script. Anyone know how to get the fast flips to work?

[Thalamus]

If it doesn't work - there is a high chance that it is not supported. Pretty sure nFozzy mentioned Zaccaria as being one of the manufacturers where the current solution wasn't going to work for.

[flstclasic]

Yes, that rings a bell now.

[Greynurse]

I can confirm that. Zaccaria tables do NOT support Usesolenoids = 2 for fastflips. But if you right click the backglass and select B2S DMD as invisible, it is one way to reduce flipper lag.

Thank you for this rare table LuvThatApex, Destruk & HSM!

 

Has anyone an idea how to set the table to 5 balls per game?

 

This advise unfortunately does not work : https://www.vpforums...ials&article=90

 

And the manual is written in Italian what I cannot understand.

 

Pressing the "7" key triggers 5 different self test programms, but the balls to play adjustment is not in that.

 

EDIT

Have a solution: take the nvram at position C0 and replace the 3 with a 5 or take this:

The table loads but the ball gets "stuck" when I press the plunger it goes about 1 inch and freezes.  I changed the enableball script to True but that didn't help. Any help? 

EDIT - Fixed it.
