File Submitted: 07 Sep 2014

File Category: VP 9.x Cabinet Tables (FULL SCREEN)

Author(s): Bodydump

Manufacturer: Gottlieb
Year: 1975
Permission to MOD?: Yes, with approval

Before the customary credit list, I have to say that without Bodydump being willing to take on the redraw of this table (plus he took the time to change stuff over to primitives!) that this table would not be such a beautiful final product that it is right now. I (and I'm sure a lot of folks out there who will now get to enjoy this table) appreciate all of your work (not just this one).

The options menu is now available by holding down the left flipper key for about 2 seconds when a game is not in progress. Once opened, left flipper moves between the different menu items and the right flipper goes through that item's available choices.
 
This table uses Arngrim's new methodology for DOF/B2S configurations. Be sure to copy the controller.vbs file to your table folder if you don't already have one there.
First run of any table that uses this setup will ask you about DOF and what you have. After that, you are all set.
The backglass is a separate download, so be sure to grab that too

Cool, I seem to recall playing the real one a long time ago. Thanks for the release, will go try it and comment later!

[randr]

Very nice! Thanks for two great tables today!

[Shadowsclassic]

So did you know I was stuck on a 24 hour shift and my laptop won't run VP, or was that just a lucky guess?

[akiles50000]

Thanks to all have contributed ,a great work Loserman.

[The Loafer]

Got a chance to play it, very fun game! I wish we had a bit better view of that row of targets but that's just a personal preference. The table is super fun, people who don't play EM's don't know what they are missing. Their loss.

Extremely nice EM table. Job well done! This is also a Sentimental fav for me, as this is a table some friends of the family had owned and that I got to play occasionally as a child. really fun gameplay as well

[Shadowsclassic]

Wow, really great job! What more can I say table looks super and is very fun to play! I agree with The Loafer, if this is not on your cab, you are really missing a lot!

 

Thanks very much Bodydump & Looserman76 another great EM for my collection!

[Sunskift]

Thanks a lot! These old EM games really makes you feel good behind the flippers!
Question: is it difficult to get a mechanical plunger going for this game?

Edit: Sorry, that was really easy. I found it just seconds after I posted. Issue closed!

Excellent EM recreation loserman - it looks and plays superbly.   One of my favourites!   Many thanks!

 

Any plans to do Big Ben in the future ?

i have to finish and fix catacomb dof and then i will start doffing atlantis

[arngrim]

ok mod is delivered to loserman, DOF mapping has been made, and here are the additional options

 

Const MechSounds = 0 '1 to enable mech sounds

Const ChimeSounds = 0 '1 to enable chime sounds

 

second option is brand new, we have chime unit toys in the configtool repository now, so i have filled the chime unit mapping to the chime toys, and allow the users to disable the chime sounds with a variable

Hi sevan,

Do you have any problems with other tables not displaying correctly?

You are seeing the wood tile floor with the cement brick wall and chalkboard on your monitor?  (You should not see them at all in cab mode)

[sammyvee]

I'm having problems running the backglass.  Can someone please suggest what I'm doing wrong?

 

Dim Controller ' B2S

Dim B2SScore ' B2S Score Displayed

Dim B2SOn=True 'True/False if want backglass

 

I get an error on line 34 with B2SOn=True

 

Thanks!

[Shadowsclassic]

Leave line 34 as Dim B2SOn 'True/False if want backglass

 

Change line 126 to B2SOn=True

 

That should fix it.
