There are two gates in the left and right inlanes.

If you want, I have the apron and shooter mash of this table, you can also use just the images.

Thanks kiwi for the apron and for the info about the gates, I didn't saw them They are not actually needed, so it is not strange that I didn't saw them But I'll add them to the table

I don't use primitives so I'll just update the apron image if I see it is needed

I suppose the gates are to prevent the ball from going into the outlanes when the diverter is open,

attempting to stop a fast hit the ball could hit the trigger (outlanes) and close the diverter resulting in loss of the ball.

 

Since the apron is vectorized, I can update the plastics image myself, without losing quality, but tomorrow...

Then I'll give them to you.

UPDATE

 

1.0.1 Updated same day

- Added missing gates at the inlanes, and a new apron image, thanks both to kiwi.

 

I guess I'm too fast, I added kiwi's apron image, it was really nice

Wait...

You have a pic of Kiwi in an apron?

I did not try the first version. Version 1.0.1 will not start. I tried two different roms. I checked the rom’s and it says they are good. Issue is, I load coins and hear a beep for each coin loaded. When I hit start, nothing happens. Can’t get the game to start and send a ball into the shooter lane. Thanks.

You need the pre-initialized nvram.

Find package here. (Motordome included in package.)

Copy contents to your nvram folder.

 

Now your credits will be accepted and you can play the game.

Thank you xenonph. That did it. I see motordome was one of the nvram that I did not have. I updated to the newest VPX a few weeks ago, I looked at the Bally 6803 and did not download it because I knew already had it. And because it said it was last updated in 2013. For future reference, I am going to guess I need to update with this file every once in a while, even though it does not show as being updated recently?

Perhaps after all these conversions the plastics have lost some quality,

I think it is better to paste the new apron on the original images, before converting them to .webp.

 

Thanks!
