Hi!
I have updated all my Taito tables, and I'll be uploading them now.
There are 34 tables in total, with one still in the making, Volley, which will be uploaded when ready ![]()
These are the changes in this version 2.0.0 of the tables:
- Added SSF sound and exchanged some mechanical sounds.
- Added new fading lights routine which uses less cpu for the flash objects.
- Added the NVram patch for Taito do Brasil tables by Pmax65, which fixes possible rom errors when quitting the tables during play.
- Enabled fastflips
- New environment image for better looking metals and for better adjustment of the Night -> Day cycle.
- New material settings to suit the new environment image.
- added 3 colorgradeLUT images for normal, saturated and half saturated to better fit your monitor. The default is the normal color.
- New VPX physics (jp's arcade physics with lower friction and heavier flippers). Changed all the objects in contact with the ball: playfield, rubbers, plastics, metals, flippers, slingshots, bumpers...
- Extra decorations like a subtle ball shadow and flipper decorations, also new backdrop, side rails, side shadows (using now a flasher to remove a border that could be seen on some tables), transparent plastic borders.
- Some tables have new playfield and/or plastics images.
- And... I'm sure I forgot something ![]()
Some tables are new, rebuilt from scratch. These are:
- Apache (1978). The older version was based on Fast Draw by Loserman, but to add my arcade physics and my script changes was easier to rebuild the table from scratch than to destroy Loserman's table.
- Lucky Strike (1978) same as Apache. New table from scratch.
- Football (1979) This table has a new script without using the volley rom. which didn't fit the table, even if the layout of both table were the same. The table has new sounds and STAT made a new direcb2s, as the old one used the Volley ROM and it doesn't work with this version.
- Sure Shot (1981) This one was already made by BORD, an excellent table. But, again, instead of me destroying his table to add my physics and graphics, so I found out it was better to make a new table.
- Hot Ball (1979) This is also a new table, based on my Eight Ball table using editoy graphics. I made new bells for the table. I don't think Taito used those kind of bells (I have not seen any video of the real Hot Ball table), but at least they sound different from the ones I used in Bally's Eight Ball. It still uses the Bally ROM. I could have rewritten the script without using the rom, but the rules are identical to Bally's table, so I used the rom, this way the rules will be 100% right ![]()
I have not made two tables of the Taito collection: Black Hole (1981) and Volcano (1981), as they are the same as the original tables.
And the rest of the tables are:
- Cavaleiro Negro (1980)
- Check Mate (1977)
- Cosmic (1980)
- Criterium 77 (1977)
- Drakor (1979)
- Fire Action (1980)
- Fire Action Deluxe (1983)
- Gemini 2000 (1982)
- Gork (1982)
- Hawkman (1983) New playfield
- Lady Luck (1980)
- Lunelle (1982) New plastics
- Meteor (1979)
- Mr. Black (1984)
- Oba Oba (1979) New plastics.
- Polar Explorer (1983)
- Rally (1982) New playfield
- Roman Victory (1978)
- Shark (1982)
- Shock (1979)
- Snake Machine (1981)
- Space Patrol (1978)
- Space Shuttle (1984)
- Speed Test (1982)
- Sultan (1979)
- Titan (1981) New playfield and plastics
- Vegas (1980)
- Vortex (1981)
- Zarza (1982)
And Volley (1981) will be uploaded when finished, still needs some graphics work.
Now I'll start uploading all the tables.
Greetings
JP
