That looks awesome! Love your tables! This version can be the Heavy Metal opening act for your arena rock tour de force!
Looking forward to playing yours!

I like your stuff Javier.  I do have 2 requests though on 2 of your past releases.  Is there any way to brighten the flippers on your Austin Powers table.  It is VERY easy to get disoriented on that table because the flippers really blend into the table.  Secondly, is there any way to get a non-physmod version of your excellent Rocky & Bullwinkle table?  It could use a nudge because every time the ball pops out of that upper left lock, it seems to drain right down the middle almost 100% of the time.  Either that, or maybe make that lock aim thhe ball so it doesn't drain so often.  Thanks for listening

This table rocks and I was so happy to be able to upgrade it on my machine. Being a metalhead for the past 30 years, I have a soft spot for this one. :)

I highly appreciate this table being built. It holds a nostalgic value to me and I'm super happy to have it!

One problem however, I can't seem to lock a ball. I've been playing it for hours and hours. Is it just me, can anyone else get the balls to lock? I can fire them up the ramp, they lock for about a second, then the lock releases the ball.

Is it a setting? I'm confused.

Thanks for replying to me in the download section. The way the game works is basically locking 5 balls in that ramp. Completing all the levels releases any locked balls 1-4, 5 locked balls immediately releases the multiball, and if memory serves me the right kickout hole also releases them.

Each locked ball changes the background music, and the 'notes' played by hitting objects (pops, kickers, etc)

There are a few videos available on youtube to show it's operation.

Again, I appreciate your work... highly. I would love to play a completed version. I truly look forward to your version Enthusiast! It looks top notch!

This video is a great example of how the multiball works:

It used to work in older pinmame / VBS files but some where over the years something broke the old VP table.

Wouldn't that be controlled by the rom? I'm not sure how VP works.

I'll alert the tour manager. But Javier is pretty fast so this version may be obsolete very soon.
