My next table, as I'm French, will be a French one, L'Hexagone (Christian Automatic)

 

I'm not sure some other French pinballs have been done with VPX !

 

I'll begin to work on this table after I did some artwork on two LTD tables for MFuegemann and Carlos Guizzo,

 

and I also plan to do a Spanish one, Alaska (Interflip), but I don't have enough resources for the moment

 

Here are features and flyers

Jamais entendu parler de ce flip ! 

Apparemment, d'après le flyer, c'est un "mod", lol ! Juste un plateau, un BG et une rom interchangeables avec d'autres machines existantes ? (Grand 8 / Sahara Love)

 

Never heard of this one.

If I understand, it's like a "mod" for a real table : you change the PF, the rom, and the BG on the base of another existing machine ? (Grand 8 / Sahara Love)

Only one i have is not even really french, just an imported american table
Think it is Excalibur 

 

Yea, just checked, its Excalibur, so just a gottlieb table with a french ROM

C'est un flipper "Genie" de Gottlieb, mais tous les éléments et leur disposition sont nouveaux

 

Il existe une version VP9 de Destuk et TAB que j'utilise comme point de départ

 

 

 

It's a "Genie" pinball from Gottlieb, but every element and their location have been changed

 

There's a VP9 version from Destruk and TAB I use as a starting point

Cool!

 

btw: Gaston also recently added support for 'Le Grand 8' (using Gottliebs "Panthera" ROM, but its own sound board) and 'Sahara Love' (using Gottliebs "Sinbad" ROM, but its own sound board) by Christian Tabart to PinMAME.

I first have to do this one, and then, perhaps I'll have a look on the other ones if I find good resources !

 

I like very much "Le Grand 8", but "Sahara Love" is more "standard"

 

And thanks to Gaston for providing all these ROMS

regarde tes mp y a un cadeau pour toi

The more important part actually he did is making them WORK. As all information on these machines is, to put it mildly, very rare.

Hi batch, your work is MUCH appreciated. To your above mentioed sentence, I would like to see any Rally Play Company (of Nice). I played "Schuss" now about 41 years ago in Italy. It was a unique experience. 

 

All the best, Christian.

[batch]

Thanks Christian,

 

This one ?

 

It's a very particular concept, no plastics, just glass !

 

An add-a-ball version has been produced for Italy

 

As it's an EM table (no rom), a script specialist is required, and unfortunately, I ain't !

 

 

 

And there's a nice top view of the playfield (perhaps I could do the artwork !)

Yes, this one. Other special features of this game are different working bumpers and slingshots. Rally Play were the "Citroen" in the pinball world.

Looks nice! Maybe somebody like mfuegemann or JP to the rescue?!

Do you know the rule set for it?

[batch]

Sorry, no idea, I did a Google search but found no result

 

I  found a photo with some lighting

 

[leonard]

I found those images of Schuss about a week ago, Iv'e upscaled them and i've been working on redrawing the playfield for a few days...

This is Scheiße but, i was making something to try and see how hard it would be to do the table logic
if i can find any rules that make sense.

But it seems it would actually be a fun table to play

I found the following link

 

https://www.retro-fl...HUSS.htm#p71328

 

You can find the very simple rules, but they are in French, so, I give you the translation (hope it's correct)

 

Hit the targets 1 to 4 in any order to get bonus, and when the red bonus light is lit, you get a multi-ball, (up to 4 balls if you want), but you also can set it for a x 4 bonus

 

And I suppose it lits the Shoot Again light

 

 

And here is the list of all Flip tronics games

How do you get a multiball on a table with no ball trough or anything?

From what i can tell, one ball, when it hits the drain channel, it trips the switch signifying you just lost your ball
and drops back down into the plunger again.

My french stinks, but i think it is saying you can win up to 4 extra balls, rather than multiball? (Add a ball)

Must be a bit more to it though, has a lot of when lit bonuses
and the bonus tree in the center.

Hehe would be too easy to code if that was all there is to it.

I like all the bottom lit plastics.
Thats a table that screams to be played outside at night


 

[batch]

You're right, it's not a multiball, and you can set up to 4 extra balls, or x4 bonus

 

Leonard (#15) has started a playfield redraw, and sent me all the material he found (photos and flyers)

 

As I have no time at the moment, because I'm working on the table "L'Hexagone", and as I'm hopeless at scripting, do you want to do this table with him ?

I'm no expert at scripting, but i will see what all i can make work, and give it to you guys to use

maybe i can find some more info on the scoring and bonuses
