It's my first attempt to recreate a table, I hope you like it.
What I did was to use a table created by TAB and modify all the graphics, if there are errors, which is very likely, I will try to solve them, as long as it is within my possibilities, if someone can help me solve them much better. I want to thank TAB for your kindness in allowing me to modify your table. Also to the JPS teacher for encouraging me to recreate this table. Also to STAT who was the one who when I made the backglass ne gave the idea of ​​this table.

Thanks for creating this table. 

 

If you run this table and you do not see display on the B2S backglass and everything appears to hang make certain to download the ROM from the link above.  I overwrote my ROM files and the table booted correctly.

t's true I saw that there are some problems with atari roms, thanks for warning

by checking the dof along with that table version, i found an issue with the drop targets, they are not registered in the rom, here is the fix

 

Set dtL=New cvpmDropTarget

dtL.InitDrop Array(Corre1,Corre2,Corre3,Corre4), Array(8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

dtL.InitSnd  SoundFX("DTDrop",DOFContactors),SoundFX("DTReset",DOFContactors)

 

i guess the original code was copied from the old vpt table, which was registering the switches from the misc menu of the drop targets, and this was not copied in the vpx, but this is an old technique, my code below is the one to use

The truth that helped me to hang, is very nice and engaging this, I know I still need to learn a lot and also bother many authors who are very busy, I apologize, but I needed help because there are things I do not know.

I had a lot of fun, and updated the table many times because I always learned something new and put it into practice, now I am publishing a stern NFL mod, called Striker Xtreme, actually already uploaded. I hope you like it, and thanks everyone for putting up with me, a hug ...

If you want to adjust 3/5 balls per game comfortably you can use inkochnito's dip switch menue of Superman. Other options I have not tested, left them unchanged.

 

... just a proposal 

 

AND: thank you kalavera for this wounderful recreation. 

[kalavera]

That was my first table, has several problems, I have to review, for example use many primitives that should be configured as a toy but at that time I did not know, at some point I will dedicate time to improve it a bit, the subject is very interesting suggest me of the dip switch I'm going to try it thanks Mustang!

I was doing tests of Superman dip switch in this table, the problem that arises is that it does not save the credits, so it does not seem viable, maybe someone can provide us with a dip switch for this table that works.

 

After some tests, to obtain 5 balls you have to distill DIP4 and mark DIP3
