File Name: Grand Prix (Williams 1977) VPX FS/DT

File Submitter: allknowing2012

File Submitted: 06 Dec 2016

File Category: VPX Recreations

Author(s): allknowing2012
Manufacturer: Williams
Year: 1977
Permission to MOD?: Yes, without approval

An old school table that will test your patience and have you swearing as the ball rolls helplessly up the outlane and in the gutter...
 
Use your nudge, hit the spinners and tempt your fate as you go for the targets.
 
Hit A&B or C&D to increase the Stars and get double bonus, light extra ball, light specials.
 
Top score is 999,990 as per the original but the high score (available on FS bg version) should retain the value.
 
Use with the recently released directb2s file.
 
-Enjoy

Cool, I can hardley wait to download and test.
See how it compares to my original machine for play.
My electro mechanical beast was always fun to play

Thanks Daryl! Great table. That inlane gap, to the drain, is a pain in the @ss.

Latest 10.2 beta should be used .. atleast that is what I use to develop the table.

Also try re-downloading the table, just in case

Jacks Open has the same evil gaps in the inlanes... bring money for the swear jar when you are playing this one.   

[Thalamus]

Thank you very much. From the description I'm guessing this will be played quite a lot for nudge training :-)

Great work I'm sure - downloading now !

[Drybonz]

These tables with the inlane gaps are good practice for softly stopping the ball.  I am not very good at it, but if you can time your flipper drops right the ball will die on the flipper and not roll up the inlane toward the gaps.

As promised here is the you tube link to my actual table.
