Manufacturer: Other - Pinball
Year: 1985
ROM: Link to ROM
Permission to MOD?: Yes, with approval

Based on the Playmatic table from 1985.
 
This is a rare Spanish table, which maybe only exist 2 or 3 of them left in Spain. I don't remember who asked me to build this table, but here you have it
  
Thanks to akiles50000 for all the images and redrawing.
Thanks to Kiwi for the new wire gate and the changes in the script.
Thanks also to destruk for making the old VP table. The emulation of the flippers is very special in this table, so all the code is from destruk's table.
Thanks to arngrim for the DOF commands.
 
Akiles50000 is making the image for the B2S. It will take a couple of weeks. So don't make a B2S based on the backglass of my table, just wait a few weeks for him to finish his image

Thanks, JP, a MAD table with a MAD lighting ! (I love the colors)

 

Looks a bit to a MAD MAX pinball

 

And thanks BobAlbright, I also didn't see the rom link !

I believe Mustang that I don,t going to finish the b2s file after of see all the comments.

 

I have inverted around of 100 hours vectorizing and retouching all plastics and improving the playfield picture and I bought the playfield original per 100 euros to make good pictures of it and only Stat has mentioned me,simply disappointing.

 

Where I live there is a saying : it is well born to be grateful not even a simple thank you to my person, it does not deserve to waste my time for anything.

[giovanni1966]

I love it. If you want to build a Spanish pinball, use all the colors of the red spectrum, use only rectangular Bumpercaps plus annoying sounds in the rom.

Thank you very much for this one. Top quality as always from JP.

 

There is a little peculiarity in the gameplay. If the droptargetbank is cleared, an activated flipper will be deactivated while the drop targets are popping up again. The same problem occurs when the ball comes out of a kick-out-hole.

Akiles: I think you are starting to be a little insensitive.  Granted I can't see what Mustang said since he's edited the post but IMHO many many people have thanked you in the past and whatever set you off, it's only one (potential) comment, no one else dissed anyone?  Also this release was posted 6 hours ago, 6 hours!  Give us a bit of time to try it out even

 

In my personal experience I start getting impatient with others when things aren't going well in my life. I hope that's not the issue with you and all is good, and maybe I'm the one impatient when I see your post (ie: going through a tough time myself!)

 

For the record once more, I think anyone such as yourself who contributes not only their time but their cold hard cash towards this hobby is a pillar of the community.  If I don't say thanks in every thread it's just an omission on part with no ill intent.  Some of us can't contribute with creating tables but like you, I've also contributed cash towards getting assets or manuals, or getting scans done.  My own contributions pale though towards yours and many others but we help as best we can.  Personally I don't care if anyone thanks me but I know with the multitude of your personal contributions that yours are certainly earned and for sure not enough are sent your way.

 

Thank you very much to you Akiles, to JPSalas and to Kiwi's usual contributions as well and to Destruk's who fingerprints are in so many tables.  All your efforts are certainly appreciated.

It seems that the ball can't clear the right gate when you launch it even at full power.

[Thalamus]

I see now after re-reading what JP wrote that I should thank you Akilles and Kiwi. Sorry for leaving you out.

[flstclasic]

Thank you to all involved on this rare gem!

[bjschneider93]

Thanks jp, akiles, kiwi and destruk

[xenonph]

Nice to see another rare pinball table preserved for all time!!

Thanks JP, Akiles50000, Kiwi, Destruk and whoever else who may have had an unseen helping hand in this table.

I specially want to thank the person who asked JPSalas to make this table!!

 

Alot of people don't realize all that goes into making a masterpiece like this.

For example...

I remember hearing that someone traveled over 1000 miles to record sounds on another very rare pin.

Others have traveled 1000's of miles just to get a good dump of the rare roms out there.

Wonder how many people thanked the person who dumped the rom for this table? Or who then added it to PinMAME?

I am guessing Zero.

Not many people volunteer their precious free time and own money, to help bring better resources to help make tables like these.

 

Alot of people just hit the "Like" button, instead of writing a thanks in support topic.

I am guilty of this.

It doesn't mean that I am not thankful to everyone else who helped bring the table together.

It just means that I can only hit the one "Like" button available, which just happens to belong to the person who uploaded the table.

 

I have helped other people on several tables, but rarely see a thanks in topics of those tables. (I am not "Great" like you, but I do my small part.)

Doesn't mean I am going to quit helping if I see no thanks.

Most of the people who matter in this community, know exactly how good you are at what you do, and what exactly you do for this community, and I can guarantee you, they are all very thankful for all your contributions to this community!!

 

Thanks again everyone!!

Carry on.

[flstclasic]

What all goes into a re-draw? Is this something that is done on photoshop? Details, details, I am very curious. Is their a tutorial anywhere?

[STAT]

Draw by "Hand" in Photoshop for example, yes, Akiles already did much great Things on this !
