Quite a shock, the time it took so far... but very promising.

I have done a video of the Alpha release in the cabinet (it is uploading so maybe available in 1-2 hours).  I couldn't play properly as I didn't have a tripod so just one hand (will try and do one with gameplay the weekend once I get the tripod back).  In this video I put the table into Burn-in mode and played with the lighting.   In real life it looks incredible :)

How are you guys doing the portrait mode.

Are you rotating windows and then running the game or is there an option I missed when loading it up

Yup. I posted a portrait mode starter script at the Pro Pinball forums - it rotates the screen automatically.

 

Got it running in PinballX too :)

Why didn't any companies license their physics engine?  It's the best one ever conceived, even has balls popping up on the glass... next to every other pinball sim, this one dwarfs all others in physics.  Nevermind the very awesome table designs.  Big Race USA was always my favorite.  Great music, impossible to fully explore ruleset, fun movie references, crazy toys, great flow, and who can forget the magnocharger shot?

 

*sigh*

 

If Farsight had any sense, they'd pay to use the physics code from Pro Pinball...nothing matches it in detail and movement.

And that's just the old physics.

Sure, here it is.

 

Pincab mode isn't in yet, this is portrait view for desktop. I'm sure it will look better once they add a view for pincabs :)

Thank you for that!.

Even in just that view you can see the quality of the rendering, the models look real.

Man the wait seems like forever for this - have there been updated betas released for the backers to test or just the one?
