=============================================================
 
Far out, man! Dave IS here! ...finally!
 
That's right, Cheech & Chong are here! It's been a long time coming, but this insanely funny duo have
now made their nostalgic venture in to VPX! Kick back and enjoy the ride as you take a road-trip with
these two famous stoners, doing what they do best, and explore their world from those crazy 70's and
80's. You'll encounter characters, music and sounds based from their iconic comedy albums, as well as
their hilarious cult classic movies. Traveling from "Pedro's House" to the "Battle of the Bands", and
back, Cheech & Chong: Road-Trip'pin, will provide you with a "high" amount of fun and laughs that
only these two can deliver.
 
Dedicated to one of the best, if not, the best, laugh-out-loud comedy teams in history. Thank you
Richard "Cheech" Marin and Thomas Chong for the side-splitting laughter that you gave us back then
and even today. These two comedic geniuses have deserved their own real pinball machine for decades
and I am proud to at least pay tribute to them with a VPX version.
 
This table is also dedicated to the old-school pinball lovers, the diehard Cheech & Chong fans, and all
of those crazy uncles out there who introduced Cheech & Chong to the younger generation.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"To do a comedy team, it requires so much extracurricular stuff, so much compromise, so
much intuitiveness to know what the other guy is doing. That's why it's so hard to do it."
                                                                                                                                    - Richard "Cheech" Marin
 
"The thing about Cheech & Chong is, we've brought more families together than Dr. Phil"
                                                                                                                                                        - Thomas Chong
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Featuring the voice over talents of Ed Kelly as Cheech and Chong (Pedro and the Man).
Additional voices: Brian M. and Sheri B.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd like to say thank you to a few people:
 
JP Salas - Thank you for all of your animation scripting help. (Happy retirement my friend).
Benji, apophis and idigstuff - Thank you for your altsound advice and .csv help.
The Visual Pinball and VPinMame Development Teams - Thank you, because without you, none of
this would be possible.
 
To all of the pinheads out there, I hope you have as much fun playing it as I did creating it.
"Let's roll a pinball, man!"
 
Your friend in pinball,
watacaractr

Included in this file:
- Cheech & Chong: Road-Trip'pin VPX table
- "che_cho" altsound file
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Install instructions:
 
UPDATE 7-19-21:
Update to VPinMAME 3.4 beta: You can find it on Github:
https://github.com/v...runs/1027799532
"VPinMAME-sc-3.4-279-50e07cf-win-x86"
You must have this updated VPinMame 3.4 version in order for this table to work correctly.
 
This table was built in VPX 10.6 and runs great in it. You can run it in VPX 10.7, but you'll need
the latest beta version due to sound issues in earlier versions.
 
Install table. Install Directb2s 2 or 3 screen(for cab users) & official ROM, if you have them already.
(Note: None of these are included in this download but are available on this site).
 
Install altsound file:
  1. Create an "altsound"(no quote marks) folder in your VPinMame main folder, if you don't already have one.
  2. Then just drop the included "che_cho" altsound file in to your freshly made "altsound" folder.
  3. Start the table (you'll hear nothing). Hit F1. Where it says, "Alt. Sound Mode (0-3):" on the right, enter "1". Hit "OK".
  4. Exit the table and restart.
  5. After the table loads, you should hear the Cheech & Chong intro and then you're good to go.
Note: If you don't add the altsound file you will be unable to experience this table as it is truly intended.
 
For more detailed rules/scoring and other info, please refer to "table info" in VPX editor.
 
Enjoy!

Those installing the game, if you get an error about rom not found or table not loading, wada mentions you need to be on v3.4beta of vpinmame. Link below.

I got cheech and Chong running very good.  But now after I upgraded vpinmame to 3.4  my ac/dc won’t load, I get script error line 137.

cirqus Voltaire backglass doesn’t display on my cabinet.

I’m sure there are other tables with problems too. I currently have 716 tables, so I didn’t have time to go through all of them tonight.

if anybody could help me I would really appreciate it.

You didnt show what line 137 is, and there are a number of different acdc tables all with something different for line 137
so not sure what error you have at all.

have you tried verifying the ROM etc?

 

vpinmame has no bearing on backglasses, those are run by b2s server


If you feel the need to empty your wallet in my direction, i dont have any way to receive it anyways

If you really want to get rid of money you can donate to this

The backglass issue only started after I installed 3.4vpinmame. Same with my ac/dc. Unfortunately machine is down for the night. I will post pictures tomorrow to show the error in the script. Unfortunately my pictures will probably be upside down ☹️(Yes I’m that guy)

the AC/DC table in running with the popper.

I’ve run several other tables with popper and they seem to run fine.

Thank you for your time.

If you use color roms, you will want to get VPinmame from VPUniverse not Vpforums

Thank you for your time.  

 Are you using color ROMs on a non color Vpinmame build?

 

We got color roms

Just have to pull from the github and take the SC build
update to latest · vpinball/pinmame@50e07cf (github.com)

 

For some reason the pinmame thread itself only has an old build on the 1st post, and a non color one at that

Really nice table! :)


These are my tables, sorted by date, all them playable with VPX 7 or newer:

After 18 years making tables, it is time to take a rest and let new authors do their thing.

I guess at last I'll play some more pinball :). But I'm sure I'll make some table updates from time to time :)
