GOTTLIEB BUCCANEER
June 1976 - ipdb info link
 
First of All I would like to Thank the Master tables builder Popotte for all the info about the Rules and for the adjustment of the Wheel\Spin System.
A Special Thank to Allknowing2012 (that owns real table) for all the instructions
 

 
 
This is the second Custom-Physic table released, with a huge physic improvement.
Table has:
-my new Dynamic Flipper Shadows (hopefully bugfree)
- the Highest-Score Post-it (a simple paper on the apron)

Amazing table, thanks for all your hard work!

Wow - this table looks gorgeous. Wonderful lighting. But the best is the physics. I cannot believe this is Future Pinball.

For anyone (like me) who uninstalled FP long ago, just check out the video of this table. To me this plays like a real EM.

If I change it to 3 Balls per game, It starts on the 3rd ball and The Game Over light is on all the time, What else needs to be done?

Thanx atarian

If only 1 table changed your mind about FP and make you reinstall it is the most appreciated fulfilment

you've probably changed the ball per game in the FP editor (under Table info menu) and this is not the right way, you need to change it in the script nvBallsPerGame

The script is where I changed it  -- nvballspergame=3

[Outhere]

To make it 3 Balls per Game - You need to do this

In the script change this to a 3   -  nvballspergame=5

 

Then change this

Sub Balllights()

    if BallsRemaining(CurrentPlayer)=0 then ball5.State = BulbOff:Gameover.State = BulbOn:'OverlayBalls.fadeout
    
    if BallsRemaining(CurrentPlayer)=1 then ball5.State = BulbOn: ball4.State = BulbOff:OverlayBalls.frame 5
    if BallsRemaining(CurrentPlayer)=2 then ball4.State = BulbOn: ball3.State = BulbOff:OverlayBalls.frame 4
    if BallsRemaining(CurrentPlayer)=3 then ball3.State = BulbOn: ball2.State = BulbOff:OverlayBalls.frame 3
    If BallsRemaining(CurrentPlayer)=4 then ball2.State = BulbOn: ball1.State = BulbOff:OverlayBalls.frame 2
    if BallsRemaining(CurrentPlayer)=5 then ball1.State = BulbOn: Gameover.State = BulbOff:OverlayBalls.frame 1
    
end sub

I've seen Miownkhan solved in the other forum. Table as it is doesn't admit 3 balls and your problem is a matter of overlay ball indicator. Ok. ...i'll probably update this table adding a key to switch from 5 to 3 balls. Hope you enjoy this em

[Ben Logan]

Keep them coming, Pincade. Great work.

[Fulltilt]

Keep them coming, Pincade. Great work.

I agree .. thank you Pincade

[Ben Logan]

This one is absolutely beautifully looking. Gameplay is great. Thanks to Popotte, allknowing, monezza, and Pincade.

The physics are so good you needed to be thanked twice

[Ben Logan]

Yes - double thanks are in order!

[pincade]

Thanx, you are too kind guys

[Ben Logan]

What's up next, Pincade? Any works in progress?

[pincade]

Yes, too many...

...But first I need to complete the FP 2.0

[Ben Logan]

Nice. Exciting times for FP. Totally looking forward to 2.0. Enjoyed playing AutoRace with my son tonight. Great experience!

[philly80]

thx for this beauty. great table with great physics.

 

but...i would like to play dektop version too..but needed a password for extracting the "BUCCANEER-cpm.zip"  ??

[pincade]

??

I assume you've got a little confusion in your head about FP:

 

in FP there's no Desktop or Cabinet version, if you play in Arcade mode (Preferences/Video Rendering options)  and with screen rotated to 270 or 90 you have a Cabinet version, otherwise the table is in desktop mode (there's even a forced arcade mode in BAM to play in cabinet mode without rotating monitor or tv....press Q once in BAM and in his menu find this option)

 

The zip you are talking about is the physic file, there's nothing interesting for you in there and doesn't need to be extracted.
