A re creation of the 1978 Brunswick table Alive! 
 
First, A LOT of thanks needs to be said.  This is a conversion of updon719 Aspen table.  From what I can tell Alive and Aspen, are essentially the same table, with only a few different sound effects. 
Ok, moving on, I used some elements from the VP9 Alive! table, so I need to thank, Wrenchien the original creator,  dboyrecords who worked on the recreation,Stat, and Borgdog who are credited on the Aspen table.  I really started this just as a "test" as I'm trying to learn vpx, and teach myself some new photoshop skills (I have a very basic understanding of it).  I started just touching up the playfield, just messing around, and I really got into it, and decided to "attempt" the whole field.  It isn't the best, but when I loaded it into vpx, I said, "Ok, I may have something here!"  So I kept going.  

I'm a big Elvis fan, and I really enjoy the artwork of this, and figured I would upload this, and hope some people would enjoy it, and maybe update it more.  I also reskinned the Aspen Backglass to go along with the table.  I'm at work, and my work computer can barely handle vpx, so I'm not sure what works and doesn't yet, so feel free to let me know! 

Enjoy! 
 I was able to get the sounds from the machine from a few different youtube videos.  I did my best to edit out the background noise and table noises.  Luckily someone that owns the machine is going to eventually send me the sounds.

My next door neighbor had the real machine when I was a kid. You just gotta love Afro Elvis. I can remember playing this table for hours. Thanks!

I'm not sure if someone here wants to help me finish this table.  There are two additional sounds that play on this table, but I'm not sure how to script them in. A jingle should play when the red and green bonus lights become lit.  Occasionally, the one will be lit before the other, and other times they light together, regardless when they light a jingle should play.  The other jingle should play, not when the extra ball light becomes lit, but when the ball drains while lit.  I have both the jingles ready to go, I just need help with playsound in the script.  Can anyone take a quick look at this?

If someone doesn't offer, ask the member "Xenonph" for assistance. He's good at the sound scripting.
