I'm retired :) I have all the time in the world :) But tomorrow I'll fly to Torremolinos in Spain, I guess the weather will be much better there than in Oslo, away from cold, snow and ice :D And I guess I won't be making many tables there, maybe finish Wrath of Olympus :)

 

This table was very easy to make. Halen sent me all the pictures ready to use :) I only needed to search for the backdrop for the desktop version, and it has a few cracks, but it is nice and detailed :) It is a vpinmame table, so I was able to make the table in 5 days :)

Yes, the redrawing must have taken a long time. 

 

 

Thank you Halen and JPS !

Thanks, it will be good to get some warmer weather. Here in Oslo have been little snow, but a lot of ice on the street as the temperatures oscillated around 0 C degrees

 

 

To all:

And thanks for all your comments :)

Yes, the redrawing  have taken a long time, about 4 months. This was the last table I redraw the graphics. I retired after this one. People have no idea the work of redraw the graphics. As a curiosity I had talked with Loserman to make this table. He asked to talk with Salas because he doesn't do vpinmame tables. We made about 6 tables together. It was the last conversation with him.

Great job on the playfield, Halen. Thank you so much!

 

I have a question, though: how do I adjust this table to play five balls per game (like the playfield card says)? I don't see the right Dip switch for it, and I don't see it in the script. Thanks! UPDATE: Nevermind. I found the dip switch menu for Williams 4 up above. Thanks.

For those wondering, you can find a PinMAME Romset with working sound on the Internet Pinball Database: https://www.ipdb.org...ine.cgi?id=1780

 People have no idea the work of redraw the graphics.

 

I think I can understand perfectly the amount of work needed for that !

Thank you to give so many time for the community.

The table will be played and will be appreaciated, I love these kinds of graphics.

 

Thank you for this table !

Hi,

About the sounds there is a huge difference between VpinMame 2.5 which is correct (please watch ) and following versions.
I've noticed also that the light "4" in the bonus count is never turned on.

Thanks Man ! I know a bit, what it is to redraw something ... just work a bit with Photoshop, but not that professional as you do ! :tup:
Mostly resize, turn, transform Images to get a BG for directb2s ... repaint some Scratches ...

Nice Words for Loserman ... so we have to thank him again - for all ... Rest in Peace LM !
