Hello everybody, either I´m to stupid to find the gator ROM or maybe I´m getting blind.

But the game rom isn´t here in the in the download area neither in the IPDB databse.

But, as others are able to play that table, there must be the rom anywhere outside.

Could anybody be so nice and point me to that rom?

thanks a lot

Yepp, but I had an nearly empty playfield with no lights on it and the flippers in 4? 5? different positions with reacting flippers underneath.

It´s playable, but nearly everything is missing.

Other pinball machines work, Vpin 9.12 and vpinmame is installed.

Hhmm, I check my settings again.

thanks for the moment

[starman]

Thanks Noah for explaining.

juanitolo -
Is that the only table, which prepares you problems?

Check "Hardware device rendering" or/and lower "max texture dimension" in the "video options".
