this looks way better(at least in your screen shot) then what i have rotated. Is this different? did you change anything? 

[dboyrecords]

Thanks! All credit to Francisco666 and his lovely FP table!

[arngrim]

this one is next, for tomorrow 

[dboyrecords]

Awesome arngrim, thanks! This ones for you randr, my plan is to just do the ones that have no FS available. Then go back and share the FS and spanned mods (I have a ton!). Plus, I was excited to hear back from F666... Enjoy!

AWESOME. played this table a lot back in the day. will check it out tonight. so glad your sharing these

Thanks dboyrecords, you have been releasing so many tables recently.  I have a database with all my tables with info like authors and I seem to be typing your name a lot.  Thanks for all the uploads!

Thanks for releasing this!

[paymaster]

Thanks for posting this!  I played it a lot today, it looks great!

 

Some feedback: 

With vp9.9, I lack most of the table sounds.  The four yellow targets make a sound, and I get the ROM sounds, but there is no ball rolling, no collision, no bumpers, no flippers etc.  It is eerily quiet...

 

Love the old Spy Hunter music though!

 

I also managed to get the ball stuck.  The forum won't let me upload an image, so I put it on imgur:

Same here with the sound. And the sound I am getting is VERY low. The 8 and 9 keys don't do anything to make it louder and the end key doesn't work to make such adjustments either..

With the tilde key, you can adjust the volume of the ROM.
Click on the DMD, press tilde key
with the arrows up and down, go to Volume

or

DAC # Volume
with the left and right arrow keys to adjust the volume
In the end, press the tilde key again to exit.

That Kiwi is a smart dude! Did you by chance dl the DOF version? Arngrim likes to remove the (redundant) mechanical sounds for DOF releases.

 

I've never had a ball stick there but after looking at it I can see how it would happen. I'll fix and update soon... thanks!

just tried this, a nice release, but a gamepley bug/trick : once you got the ball in the right saucer, just wait ball back on the right upped flipper, easy control as nothing to do, than direct backshoot and in the saucer again... i (everybody) can do this for houres... not sure how the real game works !?

 

[dboyrecords]

Thanks, I'm not sure. I've never played the real game... I know a similar trick in Black Knight where you can grab the ball with right flipper and play for hours. Same for real machine (that's where we learned it). 

[RipleYYY]

lol ...

and yes, i confirm for BK2000, not so easy but already tested it in real, when you "have it", its not more funny...

Wow, very nice dboys, this one just knocked an FP table of my cab! 

One question, the upper right  plastic is cut off showing just half the text, is it missing something or do I have a display issue? also, the lettering for the lights and rollovers on the upper left ....Yes, I know I'm a perfectionist! Lol.

 

Edit: In regard to the sound issues, even playing under 9.2 I notice that the sound for the spinner and the upper left rollovers are intermittent during a single game. 9.2 or 9.9 makes no difference for me.

 

Edit: Okay, fixed the upper right with wall for plastic to display.   Best I can tell you are just missing some walls to display "spyplatics"

Thanks! Honestly, my gimp skills are still pretty crude... I did most of these a while back. Some I've done nothing but rotate, others have gotten some graphic upgrades (some might say downgrades or maybe lateral ). Generally I was just releived to, like you, bump another FP out of the cab! Finer details might slip as the zombie-like thirst called me to the next table.

Long way of saying I'll have a look
