Ok, I agree with all; that the table is extremely nice..... buuut, is anyone going to do something with the old ROM sound. A nice fresh updated sound package would make this table the Ultimate LOTR table period!
Yes, you can do it! ![]()

You're a true artist. The table plays great and the flippers and ball capture are now excellent. The view, however, is a bit off to me. It now looks too long and narrow and the backdrop is distorted length-wise. Release 3.6 even with the gap at the top was more proportionally correct for a 16x9 monitor. My understanding is that getting the width measurement of a table correct is not that easy and if you can't adjust it anymore, the improvements in game play more than compensate, Here is what I'm seeing:
V 3.6V V 3.65

Thanks Cal, your feedback is just what i needed
Let me try to find something in-between the two, a lot of members have requested a taller table, and i still feel that 3.6 looked a bit square for my taste.
i appreciate you noting the flippers, trick was to down the strength and up the speed. This way helping you get every shot you aim for, and at the same time reducing VP's ludicrous ball speeds ![]()

Nice!!! Now that you are at it. Could you re-create in PSD the Shoot Again light insert (at least)?
It makes my eyes hurt a little with the blur.
thanks!

see if this can help you! http://www.ipdb.org/...no=20616&zoom=1
if you can't re-create it, at least can replace it.
and in my honest opinion the Original art in that pf is like it was made in 1 day, a dude or one of the kids of the employer in Photochop seaching the internet for pictures. What a bloody mess of amateur work there!!!! Jesus!!! And I'm a freaking noob!!!! But that pf is a total shity take from low res pictures and paste them in mess. Wow, just wow.
Oh I see. Stern ...
Gotcha!
Maybe the print process was running out of ink at Sterns?
here, a few extra resources https://www.flickr.c...57629712734202/
You can use this for a pf replacement: http://www.ebay.com/...e-/121626648104
