I'm not always a big fan of the older pins, but you seem to always select the most interesting tables of the time to re-create. Looks great. Thanks JP!!

Love your work, thank you.

That is because people like akiles50000 and pedator redraw all graphics, sometimes from almost unrecognizable pictures They are the ones choosing the tables to recreate It takes a lot of hours/days to redraw all those graphics

Thanks to everyone involved. You all team up very well!

They are the ones choosing the tables to recreate

 

The choice of this particular model is based on the popularity of this table at that time, mainly in Spain. It was not as popular as the Canasta86 (none were as popular) but many people remember it as a great table and one of the best EM in the late 70s and they always have it in the top 10.

 

Regarding the graphics, in this case there were photos of the plastics of excellent quality and it has been easy to redraw them (not fast). The playfield was a bit more complicated because you have to make a collage of distorted photos. And with the backglass half and half. A very good photo of the Underwater helped to reconstruct the worst parts of Torpedo.

 

At the end the result is incredible seeing from where it starts. And the special bright that jpsalas adds to it with the recreation does the rest.

UPDATE

 

4.0.0 Updated 07.11.2022

- Updated to my VPX7 physics

- Some small script updates, like the Rolling sound and PlaySoundAt routines.

- Added my latest VPX7 LUT changer to darken the table (hold down LEFT CTRL while change with RIGHT CTRL).

Super ! Thank you JP!

There is no DOF in this table but when I checked in DOF Config Tool there is a setup for Torpedo.

Maybe someone could help to adjust dof ...

Thanks,

There are a lot of NON ROM based tables that have a DOF config in DOF tool
but there was never any actual DOF in the table itself.

You could add the appropriate lines to the table to match DOF config, and test it
and then when working, give the revised script (just the script itself is fine) to the author and see if they wish to update.

 

ROM based tables, the DOF works via vpinmame/b2s server
nothing the author need do there.
