Thanks to troyguitarman, based on his first Edition and Permission to Mod, here is my Apollo with active Ball on Backglass.
Also added my litte BallSound Routine, some better Plastic Images, Bumper Primitive and better Images,
animated Targets and new (yellow) Images, new Flipper Finger Images, some other Optimizations, ...
 
Also you can activate my "RocketCheat" in Line 48, if you want a RocketBall on Backglass every Drain.
Without, you have to hit yellow Targets and count up the Rocket from 10 to 1 ...
 
Works only with Backglass Server (its a directb2s File) and 2 or 3 Screen Settings.

Thanks for playing, have Fun - greetings from Austria, STAT, stefanaustria

Super looking table! I have a real Apollo in my collection, my wife hates it. Therefore I'll never sell it!

Thank you for the release of this great EM. I had totally forgotten about this table. I actually played it quite a lot in the very early days of VP. Simple rules and very challenging. It would be awesome if a high score routine could be modded to it. As much as I enjoy this table, it probably won't get much attention from me without HS capability.

Ok ... also i want to upgrade Flipper Fingers ... soon ...

Go for HiScore ...

[BobAlbright]

Awesome....thank you very much!

 

Edit--you wouldn't think those buttons would be so hard to hit with the ball bouncing all around, but damn! High score of 1896 so far. Key of course, is to get the rocket several times so that you get that 300 points up the side and the lower two rocket targets to light up for more than 50 points--and then of course , keep the ball in motion. Seems every time get the rocket, I drain. That's what I was saying--this table is really challenging. Thanks again

This table gets to be a LOT of fun once you get the feel of it. Needed the high score post-it, THANK YOU!

 

Is it just my imagination, or does nudging work on the backglass rocket ball?

[STAT]

An interesting question (i dont use it): YES, it should work, because the B2S Ball (=Images) "rolls" based on a real VP ball in a side-table (=Ball),

but you can see just some ball-positions, because these are Images!
