Notes for this VPX version (by jpsalas):
- Special mode: change the value to the constant at line 36, SpecialMode, according to your preferences.

There are 3 modes:

* Add-a-ball. Special adds a ball, up to 10 balls
* Replay. You got to play again the same ball, any extra balls award 50.000 points
* Novelty. Special awards 100.000 points

- Number of balls: 5 is the default. Change line 34 to 3 if you prefer 3 balls game.

- The higher scores to reach to obtain an extra ball or credit will change according to the number of balls.

- The higher scores noted in the apron will give you an extra ball if in add-a-ball mode, and an extra credit if in Replay mode. Up to 10 balls or 15 credits can be collected.

- The Novelty mode does not give extra credits for higher scores.

Yes, the yellow playfield helps a lot

 

 

Thanks, JP!

You're welcome my friend

 

 

I should like to explain that the table with its default values (3 or 5 balls and add-a-bal) plays just like the other Williams table "3 Jokers", also from 1970.

 

In the "novelty" mode, the table does not award extra balls or credits by reaching higher scores, and I guess that mode was made for tournaments.

Thank you for this nice looking table. I get more extra balls than i can gamble. I think there is a problem with the counter.

[knik]

Another great table and thank you and to all involved for these Historic Marvels and the last lot of Spanish releases just blew me away.

Downloading now. Thank you Juan and Stat !

[ivantba]

Thank you for this fantastic looking Williams classic table!

[Thalamus]

Believe there is a small error line 1416. giovanni1966 mentions too easy extra balls. Should maybe 1416 be changed to ? :

If light011.State = 1 Then

Thanks Thalamus, did you test that ? I didnt check the Script - but JP will see that very soon i think.
 
FYI take a look at the Script for: Electrician_Mode = 1 … there is also a 1 Million Light at directb2s, if you use that
Just the Electrician could do that on the real Machine, see Info on IPDB: https://www.ipdb.org...ine.cgi?id=2393
So it is a nice Feature, to have that here too.

I Can't Play this table with VPinballX. I get a error Box that says Visual Pinball can not load a file of that version . I get the same error in Volley (Taito do Brazil 1981) 2.0.0  & & Big Horse (Maresa 1975) Please help !!!!!!

That line is ok. By using "If light011.State Then" what I do is to check if it is not 0, so the result will be the same.

I did a few EMs last year, mostly Spanish, but also from Williams and Gottlieb

I guess you need to specify that you must use VPX and not VP9.

[Thalamus]

Hmm. That is odd. I tried the table with ball control and I was given credits without the light being on. Agree that when I saw that line I expected that you don't really need to ask for a specific value for the variable. But, I just added it anyway and only then did it seems to work. I however didn't do extensive testing. Only ran over it a couple of times. I'm sure though, that I did get extra balls without the light being active.

You need... VPX 

[STAT]

JP, could you find something ?

[jpsalas]

JP, could you find something ?

Appart that I left a "test" key to add a ball, then I found nothing. I guess if you press they key "2" you'll get an extra ball. I'll remove that extra key in the next revision

[Joppnl]

Thank you for this excellent table JP and STAT.

 

Plays great.

 

Only thing I wonder.....gameplay is excellent, good flow, good physics, good SSF.
But within 5 or even 6 and 7 balls (got some EB's by completing the Flush) I only got 1 time that the ball got into the hole for the 'arrow-score'. (have no better way to describe it but it is that saucer-hole in the middle of the PF).

May-be the speed is to high it passes over it or may-be the hole is not 'deep' enough or...well, that's what's happening here but apart from that, lovely gameplay!
Thanks!
