File Submitted: 03 May 2020

File Category: VPX Recreations

Author(s): 32assassin, JLouLoulou
Manufacturer: Gottlieb
Year: 1995
Permission to MOD?: Yes, with approval

 
Here we go Pincaber! 32assassin and me are proud to release the first version of Stargate for VPX!
I'm a lucky man that have the real Stargate Pinball. So with the proposal of 32assassin, we work together to reproduce it. The work started at 2, to finish with help from good dev like Thalamus, Djrobx, JPJ, Rascal, Fuzzel, Fleep etc..
 
So thanks to:
 
Thalamus-JPJ-Fleep-Rothbauerw for SSF
DjRobx for Glidercraft script
Arngrim for DOF
Thanks to them
 
Specials thanks to Fuzzel, Rascal, Chucky, Mat'for their advise, testing and feedback
 
Thanks for Rothbauerw and Fleep for TOM soundfiles and SSF script parts
 
Thanks for Chucky for making b2s backglass and long long testing
 
And thanks to 32Assassin to be patient with me, it's the first time I work on VPX. He make the script, the shape, all flat plastics modeling and texturing and lot of other thing like toys animation !
I make lighting, all 3D toys and texturing, ramps modeling and physics.
 
I hope you will be enjoy. But keep in mind, Stargate is a powerfull pinball not like other brand. Flippers bats are very strong an stiff, tricks are near impossible for most of them in real. So I try to make it to the most close to reality.
I'm counting on the owners of Stargate to give their gameplay feedback.
 
-All parts are made from my real Stargate ( I know i'm lucky to have this pinball ).
-All plastics are scanned from my real stargate.
-All Decals for ramp, apron, target...... are scanned by me from newer set i buy for my real stragate.
-All toys are full 3D scan by me or redraw from real with my CAO software
-All ramp are redraw from real with CAO software and some use their own physics from 3D mesh like sheet metal ramp. "No invisible ramp". Because it's impossible to make the good shape for ball trajectory in VPX.
-All scan are made with more 8k resolution at my workplace
-Backglass made by TeamPP ( big thanks to Chucky ) from my scan.
-Playfield from VPForum and remastered by NeoFr from Team PP. Thanks to him
-Scan cleaning and remastering by Chucky from Team PP
-All solenoid sound are from my real stargate recording
 
For later, I plan to make better sound quality. For the V1, it's a first step. Maybe we will have very good help, to make sound more realistic in the future. I hope.!
 
In the file, you'll find all nvram file to initialise ROM, with default setup like real. You'll also find custom instructions card you can use as you want.
 
In the next day, i'll publish all my resource i make, to the community. 

You can change the Rom filename in the script like which version you have
 
Pincabily,
 
32assassin and JLouLoulou

I've got flipper and ball sounds but no music or sound effects. Any ideas? Anyways the table looks beautiful, thanks for the hard work!!
So there's a few rom versions floating around. I downloaded a version that was around 700kb and one around 310kb. I extracted and combined the two and that fixed the sound issues. Awesome work guys!!!!

You might be missing the sound ROMs.   Make sure your stargat5.zip has arom1.bin in it

Hello,

I try to download the table and it doesn't exist so you can reactivate the link

[JLouLoulou]

I don't know why the link were deleted. I send a PM to DDH69. 

But me, I have already access to the link. :/ 

[batch]

It's normal

 

The author has always access to his uploads

 

You need your file to be approved by this site administrator, Noah Fentz, and it shouldn't be too long

 

What is strange is that we could download it yesterday

 

But I think you've just to be patient

 

And thanks to you, 32assassin and all involved for this fantastic table

[Stephen Wilkie]

Link wont let me download, says I do not have permission.... I am signed in.... not sure why, anyone else having this problem?

Looks great would love to try.

[JLouLoulou]

it's back. You can download it again

[rascal]

Great job on this guys! Plays very good. 

[Bushav]

Thanks for table. Plays great!

I wonder if link disappeared because some goofball reported it as broken because he couldnt find the ROM. I wonder how many times intelligent people can ask this forum why cant I find the Gottlieb ROM?

Ughhhh!

[The Loafer]

I was about to say the same thing. Rom and table are two very different things anyway so rom being unavailable should not reflect negatively on such a fine release

Noah: If the broken tag is still there can you remove it please ? There is nothing wrong with the download

Back to this fine table, I got a chance to play it in VR and oh my god those ramps! Lol. The more I play it the more I thibk this was a fantastic swan song for the Gottlieb/ Premiere brand. Lots of moves, LOVE those targets that kick the ball back, love the always chaotic multiball. Really aside from some repeated call outs this is an amazing pin. I’ve always liked it before but thanks to your recreation, I’m rediscovering it again

[JLouLoulou]

Thanks the @The Loafer , i really appreciate your feedback. i you want, i can send you a special version with high definition ramps loool.
