A mod of dboyrecords Circus (Gottlieb 1980) FS version.
I first want to thank dboyrecords for allowing mods without permission.
I also want to thank him and anyone else who helped make this table come to life. Including LuvThatApex, Bodydump , STAT, Kiwi, and Destruk.
BIG THANKS SIRS!!!

I noticed there wasnt a VP9 DT version of this table.
So I made 2 versions.
 
Version A has pic of backglass with  built-in DMD.
Version B has pic of backglass in upper right corner. I also added cutout of balloons for background and cropped logo for left side. The DMD is not built-in.
 
I rotated for DT usage.
I dowloaded the Plastic pics from IPDB and made cut out's and used these as decals to help fit the plastics better. There were some plastics I didn't change. On DT versions I only modified lower plastics  I left all the plastic cutouts in editor in case someone wants to try and use them.
I changed the color of the rollover dividers to same as blue lights on playfield, and I lined them up and made them all the same size.
I added pic to back side of spinner from IPDB. Its a loop of fire and I guess is supposed to look like the lion is jumping through the fire when it spins fast.
I added wall above spinner to deflect ball to left instead of going straight through and out to rollovers at top.
I changed drop targets to red and yellow like IPDB pics. I kept the white clown face, but just colored around him.
I then switched dboyrecords flash pic with Sindbads Flash pic, so now the lights look like rays of lights. Thanks Sindbad!!
I moved flippers to where the flipper holes were, and adjusted plastics accordingly.
Moved bumpers.
Moved left kicker.
Adjusted apron.
Adjusted Scorecards on apron.
Added different side rails.
I tried to add elasticity to the top rollover dividers, but I really can't see a difference. So the physics are the same as dboyrecords original.
 
Hope you enjoy!!

Thanks for your help, i checked my fonts & they were set at default size. Then i went to the backdrop editor of the table & clicked on the text boxes for the scoring and changed the font size from 20 to 18 and now it works great.
