Great job on this!  One question: I'd like to speed up the plunger a bit, but for some reason I can't find it in the editor as I can other tables. Is an adjustment possible?  Thanks!

@Pinballman glad you like the table, to increase the plunger speed go to layer 1 and highlight the plunger. Then in the Properties window select the Physics Tab and increase the Pull Speed to 1 (or whatever suites you)

 

I'll update this for any future releases

Looks fantastic.  I've always enjoyed this table.  It wasn't stated in the description so I'm curious about the intentions of this mod.  Were the changes made to attempt to make it play and/or look more like the real table?  Or are these just changes to your personal liking?  Or some other reason?

 

Thanks!

A bit of both really, I didn't even know this table existed until I saw Wildman had created a backglass for it so I downloaded the first version I found which was (by Allknowing2012) and watched a few video on Youtube of the real table in action. I always like to Mod most tables I download in some way or another, I find It's a great way to learn and make things look and feel exactly how I like them to although most never get released and end up just staying on my machine :) I thought this one turned out particularly nice with the added shadows and lighting so thought I would share it this time as Allknowing2012 had stated no permission required to MOD (Thank You!)

 

I'll probably still work on it some more over time, I would like to get the Flashers looking more natural so maybe that will come in a future version update.. 

 

All the best

Hi SG1bsoN.

Thank you very much for your time spent on this stable.

 

This question is for everyone who can help:

I would like to know if there is an easy way to increase the contrast of the table. 

While I use this table on my desktop, it looks great with a good contrast, when I this on my pincab I got a gray faded background.

All the other tables look good.

 

Any suggestion is welcomed.


Everywhere a ball rolls, there's fun!

@Pmax65 changing the LUT would be the easiest and quickest way to adjust the contrast. Let me know if you don't know how to change the LUT on a table and I'll try and explain what to do

Hi SG1bsoN,

I feel like an idiot.

I didn't realized that despite I lost a lot of time tuning up contrast, brightness and saturation on the cabinet monitors, the one for the table has 5 memories for these settings and when I stored the choice I simply selected the default (so all my time spent for that has been trashed).

I feel two times idiot, because three years are passed since I did it and I simply ignored it because most pinball have high contrast by themselves and the issue was evident only for the transparent items on the table that were not much realistic. I honesty had noted that here on the desktop, especially those transparent ramps were much better than there on the cabinet, but I always believed it was because of the different monitor placement, which is seen by the side instead of by the front.

Now I selected the User configuration that I setted up three years ago and not only this table looks great, but all the other look much much better.

I thank you very much for involuntarily having open my eyes.

Have great days.

Looks great! I play the crap out of this one in real life at a neighboring bowling alley.


I could have been smart, but I never learned anything by being smart!
