Back not long after I finished up Black HOle.  Someone in a random thread mentioned someone should do  Haunted House.  Hauntfreaks "nominated cyberpez"  I said sure but only if resources were available.  Not long after that bodydump dumped his playfied redraws, plastic scans and ton of gathered images of the table.  Now I was stuck....  so I got to work.
 
I had a working table fairly quick but doing what I do best I stalled out and moved onto something else.  Arconovum messaged me and asked if he could take a look at where I was with it.  He added his FSS and tons of other visual stuff.  At this ping it was really looking great but not done, so I put out a beta and let it sit again.  That was a year ago...
 
Fast forward to about 6 months ago as tmnt was wrapping up. I decided to dig back into this hard and finish it up.  With lots of new tricks up my sleeves it came together pretty quick.  Another bonus was getting to play a real one not to long ago.  Lots of last minute tweaks and reworks to add in details from the real table.  I think/hope everyone will agree the wait was worth it.
 
As always check the top of the script, lots of options.  Also table works with 6 and 7 digit ROM.
 
So, big thanks to!!
 
Bodydump - for providing his playfield redraws and plastic scans 
Wrd1972 - Countless back and forths. Physics, lots of physics, helping get the table rebuilt and sized right, testing and feedback.
rothbauerw - putting up with Wrd and me.  For also being a code wizard, and making the impossible seem simple.
Arconovum - For adding his FSS, tons of little details here and there.  In general getting me excited to work on this again.
Bord for his awesome new Gottleib flippers (I did the small upper one myself, it turned out to good to not use)
Dark - I'm sure there are some Dark nuts and bolts in here somewhere.
DJRobX: SSF code and thanks to RustyCardores for showing me the way, you can't go back!!  Ball drop tweaks by Roth and me.
Arngrim - Lots of back and forth to get the DOF just right,  Be sure to update your configs!
 
Last but not least the developers and other table authors.  This community is nothing without everyone doing their part!!!!!!
 
Happy Halloween.... Enjoy!!!

Fantastic job, plays wonderful

[Schlabber34]

The one with the most memorys for me! Thanks man! Looks fantastic! Can't wait to try the final build!

[Brer Frog]

A big thank you to everyone involved in making this great table.

 

It was probably a rare occurrence, but I managed to shoot a ball back up under the upper level, sort of where the ball normally exits onto the main playfield, and it got lost in there. Not sure exactly where it went, but somewhere in the circled area. Nudging did not free it.

Congrats on the release CP. You are truly the Gottlieb widebody king of the community. This table really brings back memories from the ONLY time I played it...likely around 1982.

 

Frog, we ill take a look. However I have seen a good handful of instances here recently where the ball has gone straight through "solid" objects. Just yesterday, and I forgot what table it was. But the ball went straight through a set of target objects like they were not even there. Upon looking at the objects in the editor, there is no valid logical reason why this should have happened.

 

I wonder if there is some kind of larger VP engine glitch that is causing this?

[Schlabber34]

Raised playfields?

[wrd1972]

Yes. All raised playfields.

[Slydog43]

Great update, thanks.  I have very fond memories of this table and the great music.  Love having a VPX version now that looks and plays so well.

[kalavera]

last night I was playing this table for a while, I liked it a lot, I wanted to thank everyone involved, especially, of course cyberpez, a specialist in the reconstruction of tables Gottlieb, his "Black Hole" is one of my favorites Now this wonder is added.

Thanks for this gift!

[Schlabber34]

Yes. All raised playfields.

Could this cause the problem?

Awesome table and good timing.

 

One small thing. The magna save buttons should also control the lower level flippers in the standard mode.

Love this table, brings back memories.  Thanks for putting it out. 

 

Buggy report - ball going "through" things.  Right here to the left of the red light.  As if the green plastic wasn't a barrier.  it went in there just to the right of that white drop target.  Couldn't get it out.

Just played this for the first time in a long time and noticed the upper deck flippers are not working. running beta 10.6. any thoughts anyone? (nice table otherwise) also fond memories.

Hi mate, there are some flipper options in the script, the real machine has extra flipper buttons, and this table is set to use magna save buttons as the flipper buttons for the top playfield, change the script to use one set of flipper buttons for all flippers.

[wrd1972]

63wizz is correct. Check the flipper options in the script.

[bpjacobsen]

found it!   FlipperKeyMod = 2 (lazyman flippers) lol. problem with my cab is the right magnasave button had to be placed further down than the left b/c I need the space for the plunger housing (zeb's plunger V3) though I can still go either way. just prefer to have them all be on the main. thanks!
