Looks and plays great! Thanks Starman - you are the king of the zipper flippers.

[TedB]

Just played a couple of games. Another great EM, Starman. Love the backglass, the art is very nice and original.
Very nice shots and a 3 ball multiball on a table from '66, wow!

In combination with the B2S this table looks and plays like a real pinball. Thanks for sharing.

Do you already own a cab yourself?

[kruge99]

Looks and plays amazing!! Stunning attention to detail!


Best Regards,
Todd.

[Pinhead22]

What an awesome table!!!!! Great job!!!

[tamoore]

Thanks!

[maceman]

I played a few games of this last night Walter. What a great accomplishment. From the sounds, to the graphics, to the beautiful B2S, this is now on my favorites list in the cab.

Your attention to detail is amazing. I also liked your inclusion of the rules and what programs you used outside of the VP to accomplish the tasks. Most people have no idea how much work a table like this is to create. You are truly an EM master.

[yukiko1701d]

To starman...

 

It's nice table!!!

 

It's nostalgic,I left just as happy tears. ...    

 

You do not you are planning to make even 4:3?    

(I know that looking at the wreckage...@Backglass)    

 

Waiting for you to expect,please make 4:3 table...

Thanks, guys! You're welcome! Glad you like it.

 

I noticed myself that there is a small graphic glitch with the middle plastic on the right (covers the Deep 4 Caper Alley).

It's just a little layer issue (the underlying rollover shines through) when the plastics lights are on.

This only happens on the FS version.

 

To correct this:

1. DL the WS version -> Editor -> Image Manager -> scroll down to the image named "PF_BON_PLON_LON_3BALL" -> export - to any folder.

2. Now load the FS version -> Editor -> Image Manager -> scroll down to the image named "PF_BON_PLON_LON_3BALL" -> Reimport From -> your file folder ->Voila.

 

Sorry, my attention to detail is'nt everytime on top. ;-)

 

 

 

Enjoy & Servus

Yukiko

Yukiko, I'll overthink that.

A 4:3 version is not that simple like faralos in the WIP thread said, because of the numerous reel sequences the backdrop has to be completely revised.

Uh, thanks for the "master", luvthatapex. I'm far away from that. But maybe on the way.

Wow, another great table from ya walter, thanks.  You really make top notch tables, that play and look incredible.  They always go on my favorite list.  Take a bow, you deserve it!

[tttttwii]

Dear Walter,

 

if Capersville is started directly in VP everythings performs right, but if startet via Hyperpin, the backglass is not closing down after exiting Hyperpin. I alsready renamed the b2s-exe file to the table name and set launchbackglas to false. Both with no effect. If launchbackglass is false, the backglas is not starting, at true I cannot exit via Hyperpin.

 

Can you help?

 

Regard Torsten

[Slydog43]

I renamed the VPT file to match the B2S exe filename and changed Launch to false in the table script and all is working inside of Hyperpin.

[tttttwii]

Thanks Slydog, this worked!!!

[biomii]

Thank you.

[settingsons]

Many thanks Walter - it looks so good.   I won't have access to the cabinet until Sunday so can't yet try it.

 

My wife asked me last week what I would like for Xmas, and to be honest the answer is a virtual beauty like this.  I am a little tempted to save this until Christmas day but I know it I ain't gonna hold out that long

Wow, starman this table looks fantastic. Not sure how I missed the release on the release day but I found it now, I can't wait to get this one fired up on the cab. Thank you

[settingsons]

I have been playing this tonight and what a great table with loads of nice little features.  The playfield artwork is incredible, clear, great colours, and looks wonderful on the cabinet's 42" playfield and the backglass.   Those flippers looks so real - great stuff!

 

Thanks again Walter for your tremendous efforts to produce replicas of these EM masterpieces.  The more of these EMs I play in VP the more I am determined to seek some a real ones to play.

[RipleYYY]

dont know how the real pin goes, but i like this FS version in my pincab
