Cool, looks like this might see the light of day then

I think it will, if trout can do the redraw stuff i'll bring this to life, probably rebuild it from scratch though so it's how i need it to be for coding purposes. I'll post a wip for the 5 or 6 tables i'm about to start on when my vacation starts next week.

Scott, Vacation is surpossed to be stress free

[unclewilly]

Building tables is what i enjoy doing, it's a stress reliever. it's when i start coding them and they don't work right like that multiball on smb, that's when i stress out. then i find out i forgot to code one switch and that caused the whole issue, then i just feel retarded. I am going to california for a few days so i'll be taking a little time off. I'd like to finsh up my table top test cabinet also.

Alright, so spending hours in Illustrator today was a lot more fun than I thought it'd be. Guess I'm just a nerd for artwork.



A WIP post for playfield artwork might be kind of silly, but I figured some people might like to see something other than the table itself take shape.

looks great !!!!!
just an idea, you may be best to leave redrawing the post holes till last after you have built it in vp in case you need to move a few things around a little to make it play right.

but it is looking cool already man

Thanks. UW is gonna be doing the building from scratch, though. If the post holes give him any problems, they're on a separate layer and are easily moved or destroyed entirely.

Step One: Hold down shift while dragging your circle.
Step Two: There is no step two.

Also, I've noticed that you've been taking screenshots of your entire desktop in the High Speed thread. For your WIP previews, you might find it considerably nicer to just go to File > Export, then save the file as a JPG.

Or ALT-Printscreen will save just the current selected window.

Say hello to Mr. Bison.



That was probably the most difficult area on the playfield due to the weird cell shading, so I'm glad I hit it early. I also slipped in the launch area grooves, which are thus far the only raster graphics on the table. Yay.

looking good trout. I'm gonna bust out the 2 pinbots I started, then I'll do this one in the next batch of tables, sf2 comet, and fathom.
