Lookin's good, Mr. Melon. I have to say this is one of my most anticipated releases, It really looks great.

i'm sure you are probably aware but the plastic you have yet to add behind the casters club is up on quite a steep angle and in actual fact so is the dolphin plastic but bah i didn't care and left it flat, be interesting to see how you handle the reel/indian plastic.
Anyway keep up the good work, i'll carry on with mine soon enough but i need some time to sort out life's problems that i'm having at the moment. Still be happy to help out with your version if you want..beta test etc or whatever.

hah you're right shit i musta been drunk..lol...ooh just had a look at Fd's backglass site even if i was drunk the image that is there is slightly off on the right hand grill or left depending on your perspective, well maybe the original designers were drunk? all i did was overlayed higher res speaker grills but it might not look all that good on that shot as the really high res shot i did was for a 4096x4096 screenshot and hey can't give away too much..tongue.gif

Well it's the angle I prefer. I try to make my tables angle independent, so that you can change the view angle to the one you prefer. If you like the GRONI view you only have to delete the DMD in the editor.

Yes, I'm aware of those plastics. I'll try to make those two plastics wits ramps so that they're in angle. Now I'm trying to handle the reel, once I have it working I'll add those plastics.
Thanks for the DMD image cool.gif

Sorry no, the only thing left is the lighting stuff (GI Lighting, flashers...), but the progress on this table is stopped for now. I've been too busy last few weeks, and in my little spare time I'm working on another table to rest a little of Fish Tales.
Well, maybe I can open a new WIP thread for the new table I'm working on...

Well, I've been working on this one a little:



There's only left the illumination stuff, it's fully playable now.
I've included new flippers based on the UR&NF's terminator 2, I think it plays great now.
If anybody wants to beta test it just tell me ok?

Looks beautiful! I would love to test the FS version, if you have anything ready for that. I will playtest the crap out of it and find anything wrong. smile.gif
