I am surprised that no one has done an artwork upgrade to this still

 

But the redrawn playfield and plastics look beautiful. What is there to upgrade?

Hi wiesshund

 

Jungle Queen (Gottlieb 1977) VPX conversion (no longer requires 10.7) [4Player version] v4.0

What's New in Version v4.0 (See full changelog)
  • v4
  • Updated physics, adjusted lighting
  • Requires VPX 4.0 rev 1445 or higher

 

I guess you meant :

  • Requires VPX 8.0 rev 1445 or higher

 

I noticed a couple of Display and Audio issues :

  • Display issues :
    • Game Over should not be lit permanently.
    • A,B,C are not properly lit from the beginning of each game, on almost all players turns.
    • Special and Extra Ball are not lit at all when A,B,C and target are all completed.
       
  • Audio issues:
    • The "tac!" sound is barely audible when Free play are earned through Special or Scores.
    • The countdown of Bonuses is not always audible.
    • The flippers coil noise isn't the original sound as far as I remember (in 1979)

 

I have some improvement suggestion : addition of a Ball-in-Play counter separated from the Credits counter.

Despite all of these little problems, I enjoyed this table with VPX 8 RC1

Nice update, much appreciated.

Mod table and re-release it
I did not make the table, it is just a direct conversion of the VP9 table since that author is gone


Hey, you sure you are in the right upload?
âbrowser cache issue maybe?

Gameover, cannot replicate.
It goes off at game start, it comes on when game is over
Even tested in 4 player game.

At no point ws gameover lit when game was not over, not sure what to say there.

 

ABC far as i know they are not lit at all at game start

That was how the original table was, again i did not make this table.
They light up after you complete certain things.
 

The specials lights did come on for me though after claiming them.

but again, as i did not make the table i cannot swear that the rules are correct.

 

 

 

  • Audio issues:
    • The "tac!" sound is barely audible when Free play are earned through Special or Scores.
    • The countdown of Bonuses is not always audible.
    • The flippers coil noise isn't the original sound as far as I remember (in 1979)

 

 

 

I assume Tac! means Knocker?
replace it with a better knocker sound maybe? those are the author's original sounds, i did not change anything that was not broken.

 

Countdown of bonus inaudible i cannot replicate, even used manual ball controll to rack up stupidly high amounts of bonuses.

 

Flipper coil, again original author's stuff, i did not make this table, i only ported it to vpx

 

 

I have some improvement suggestion : addition of a Ball-in-Play counter separated from the Credits counter.

 

As far as i know, the real backglass does not have such a feature, has only the single counter

 

Again take this table, and feel free to mod improve and re-release it.

All i did was port it to VPX since the original author is no longer around to do so

Looks great.  Tried this with 10.8 64bit.   The ABC top center lanes only seem to light up AFTER you lose your ball.  Can someone post which VPX version one should use with this table to correct this behaviour?  Also, has anyone gotten DOF to work?  I'm getting nothing from the slingshots or flippers (WRT DOF).  Works fine on all other tables.  Thanks in advance.

Game ball states are incorrect on this vpx table. 

 

Top A B C lanes need to be lit, bottom A and C in-lane need to be lit, top red bumpers need to stop blinking and remain lit when ball is inserted in plunger area.

 

Here is video with correct state:

Jungle Queen Tutorial with Bowen Kerins:

youtube.com/watch?v=AbFOMWyU_eA

 

 

ps. i have fixed the abc lanes and a, c in-lanes, also fixed the blinking bumpers before the ball is in game. fix sound not working during bonus at end of ball. uploaded a version with fixes
