Something new / old from jpsalas. Yay.

 

The rules are a little different.
Also the sound.

Everything looks and plays well.

 

Thanks a lot ! Also to Carlos Guizzo and wiesshund!

 

(A photo of the original table would be nice)

Thanks Salas!!!

 

You forgot to credit mfuegemann for Vpinmame programming. Without Michael it is impossible to develop LTD's tables.

I thought it was only wiesshund who worked on this pec-men. I even asked him about it

Mr. & Mrs. Pec-Men from JP, great. Thank you very much.

No, unfortunately it would not be nice, but rather very sad.
The table example that we had to work with is in an utterly destroyed state as if it laid in pieces out in a field for 15 years

 

I cant even offer up a nice IPDB picture

 

Thanks Salas!!!

Programming, as opposed to VPM Scripting
Only table that i had a little tiny bit to do with getting the ROM working in Vpinmame
would be HHotel, and that would only be indirectly, from finding weird things about it and Gaston would investigate them further

I think Michael helped with getting many of the LTD ROMs working in VPM itself?
I think that is what Halen is talking about?

Thanks JPSalas, Carlos Guizzo, Weisshund, MFuegemann, and anyone else who had an unseen hand in making this treasure come to life!!

Your work is appreciated guys!!

 

Thanks again!

 

The Backglass file is bigger than the table!!!

AMAZING JP!!!

We have videos of the table working. The video shows the instructions for the table in portuguese. If you want I can post the link here.

Of course, let's see ...

Thank you.

Great table. I used to own the american version. Plays very similar to my real machine

[Mike DA Spike]

Nice one guys ! really impressive !

I cannot find anything on IPDB or somewhere else on internet about this table.
Does anyone has the manual how the dipswitches could be set ? (So a 'user friendly' dipswitch menu can be created ?)

 

For the Bally version scutters created a nice flexDMD version that replaced the normal vpinmame display. Can that be added to this table as well (The rom doesn't show nicely on my real DMD and miss some characters)?

ROM should not go on your DMD
Your DMD isnt going to be able to fit 4 player scores, coin counter, ball counter and the on playfield multiplier array.
Whole lot of things missing when i look at it in dmdexternsions

 

You can add scutters DMD to this table and put that on your DMD though
You may even be able to just copy paste the Bally one?

 

Table is not in IPDB and i can not find a working one
I spoke to a guy in brazil who is restoring a Haunted Hotel (one of the last left that can be restored), he wanted to ask about some of the wiring since he found one of my demo vids on youtube
and figured if i could wire the virtual one i might know.
I asked him if he had seen a working mr and mrs pec-men or a restorable one, he said not for many many years.

 

Table uses a heavily modified LTD4 controller
It has no dips

it has sw 7 8 and 9 to enter and navigate the service menu

 

Here is the manual, but i dont think it goes into the service options much?

See, it no fit

 

that is the service menu by the way

[Mike DA Spike]

Thanks buddy,
I see on page 17-20 the service menu options, but needs to translate it, as I don't understand most of it. But I will figure out to set this rom correctly to my cabinet !

Well, you are closer to JP than me
Go have lunch with him, and he will read it to you 

 

My Portuguese stinks, and i had to read the darned thing to work out the ROM 
Did you know that
Portugese to English voice translation doesnt work
When you cant pronounce the damned words right?
I learnded that, now im much gooder
