***Special thanks to Kees for the original table and Loserman for the B2S mod and backglass!***
 
I was pleased to work, again, with HauntFreaks for my second table contribution.  I took on a bit more this time with both playfield and plastics redraws.
 
I have included, for your convenience, an improved backglass (image courtesy of Cryptdoctor, animation by HF), wheel logo, basic instruction card, and backglass still image with this package.
 
My tables are all set to portrait orientation.  If you are like most normal people and want to change this to 270 orientation, I have included a POV backup file for your convenience.  Simply go to the file > import > backdrop pov in the editor and import the Cabaret Landscape.xml file.  The settings will be automatically applied for you.  Fine tuning can be done in the "camera-lights mode" under the table menu in the editor.
 
The resource images for this redraw were all very poor.  The redraw involved some reconstruction from multiple images.  I made every effort to make an authentic representation of the table, but there may be some minor inaccuracies.  I am pleased with the result and would say it is 95%-ish.
 
For my part, additional mods are allowed without approval and encouraged.  However, Kees and Loserman have requested that you seek approval before modding, so please check with them.
 
Please enjoy this table.  We will try to address any issues that arise through updates.

Sorry i posted this in the review section by accident.  I am experiencing a fairly significant frame-rate drop with this version of the table is there any thing I can do to help minimize this issue?  I don't experience this issue on other VPX tables.

Hi Malachi... this is the first time I have heard of stutter with this particular table.  It doesn't seem to be a particularly demanding table.

 

Here is a tutorial I wrote on VPX performance.  Read through this and the comments and see if you can find anything that helps you.  http://www.vpforums....topic=35390&hl=
