Fireball Classic (Scapino)



Version: 1.0.0
Category: VPinMAME 8.x Recreations

Author(s): scapino

Description:
My version of Ballys' Fireball Classic.
A big thanks to Bob Clements, for supplying tons of photos and info of his own machine.

A kinda weird table. Old school play, with modern sound, and 3 ball multiball. Somewhat simular to Fathom, but not quite as pretty.

I'm not sure, but its the only table I've seen where the playfield is one piece, but split and bent at the top to make a huge sort of ramp.

This table has the incremental plunger. Use the up and down arrow keys to adjust the strength, and hit enter to launch the ball. But it defaults to the original, Enter key only plunger. This is adjustable on the menu, as are the dips.

Another classic for sure....and when it comes to graphics you're still untouchable...

Hey Kurt, are you going to update these for VP9? That's the current version you know...!! biggrin.gif

I'm looking into doing quick updates to make use of the new physics.

As for flat view tables for 16x9 rotated, that requires re-rendering and cutting new emreels, as the emreel images as they exist now are rendered at an angle.
That is quite a bit more work. I'll see about doing 2 versions at a time for new tables, though, as well as 2 versions of any future big graphic updates.

Unfortunaly as the Johnny Mnemonic I'm working on uses overlapped transparent EM reels for the Gloves, it will have to wait for its VP9 update till they have that problem fixed.

So JM will be released as a vp8 table.
