This is America 1492 by Juegos Populares.
  
Akiles provided the scans and photos of this rare pin. The nice flipper models and textures have been created by Zany.
   
At the top of the script You can change some values:
- adjust the lane posts between a moderate and hard position
- show the backglass match light animation on the apron
- set the table to FreePlay 
A DIP switch menu allows the adjustment of number of balls and some other table features.
 
Batch contributed the backdrop image. There are two versions included (16:9 and 16:10), if You have a different screen resolution.
The table rules are included in the download file.
 
Have fun and please use the support topic to post any findings and suggestions.

Thanks for this rare and colorful table, Michael

 

But I have a problem, my scores, etc ... are not recorded

 

Is there a special .vbs for this table ?

 

Here are my settings and a snapshot, using the 16/9 backdrop

I believe the problem lies with the rom emulation.  The VPM team got these roms to work but there are some facets that they could not get to work properly in my opinion.

 

For example I tried to set the balls per game via the dip switch menu to 5 balls yet it still played 3 balls.  I don't know if the team has looked at these roms since but I have a feeling the emulation is not complete.

 

If I am incorrect can someone from the VPM team verify the rom?

Hi Ta,

 

did You press F3 after changing the settings? The 5-ball setting is working for me.

Yes I did.  Still don't work for me.

5 balls work for me too.

5 balls (F6 then F3) works for me too, and the play lasts a longer time !
