There are a bunch of VP9 tables that I loved that I wish were updated to VPX. Other users please add to the list. Lets start with "Pirates: Wolves of the Seas" and "Scarface - Balls and Power" Absolutely loved these tables.

I won't make "Pirates: Wolves of the Seas" since that was made when the Stern SAM was not emulated. Now that it is then it is better to play with the Pirates of the Caribbean using the rom :)

For me, one of them would be Banzai Run but not in FSS form, to run it in the cabinet. Pity that the backglass playfield is not possible with VP... perhaps in the future or maybe with VPE once it gets there.

I'm making Banzai Run now. More or less the way Groni made his version for VP9. This way it will be playable for desktop and cabinet users. I'm building the table from scratch, including the graphics. Maybe it will not look as good as the FSS versions, but it won't be so bad :)

What about Fireball Classic (Bally, 1985)?

IPD No. 853

 

Destruk made a VP9 spanned version of this table.

 

Would love to see this get the proper VPX treatment.

I believe that is the 1971 version of Fireball.

i am looking for the 1985 version of Fireball Classic in VPX.

That is exactly why I suggested this table in this topic.

Do you have good quality Apollo Williams images ? Right now I'm working on a Big Indian clone table. If anyone has good images of the Williams Apollo I could take a look.

You are my hero!  This is still my most played table.  I play the real thing every year at the asbury park silverball museum, and the vp9 table STILL plays almost perfectly to the real machine.  It's insane how well that table still holds up.  I have been waiting forever for someone to just recreate that version to VPX but figured it wasnt going to happen.  Also, the way the back box works on that vp9 table is WILDLY accurate to how the real machine plays.  Cant wait to play this one JP!  

 

For me, one of them would be Banzai Run but not in FSS form, to run it in the cabinet. Pity that the backglass playfield is not possible with VP... perhaps in the future or maybe with VPE once it gets there.

Its just dawning on me there were four Fireball tables, and only two made it to vpx.  Fireball with zipper flippers and Fireball 2.  There was Fireball Home Edition which appears to only be available on Future Pinball and Fireball Classic.  Crazy, I never knew about the later.

Well, i did technically, but when people learned that you had to reconfigure your screens, it sorta got a big thumbs down
so i just kind of let it die

Take Five WAS made for VP9 but I have no idea about VPX. I saw this somewhere online but can't remember where and it was GORGEOUS.


You know where I'm at and it isn't here. I'm not appreciated here (nor are my table releases) so I have no respect for a small group of folks here and they KNOW who they are and I KNOW WHO THEY ARE.

 

I've been treated with nothing but disdain and disrespect (EXTORTION, DOXXING, harassment, threats and blackmail) here at VPF so you can find me at Pinball Nirvana.

 

KNOW THE TRUTH BEFORE you CONDEMN SOMEONE.

 

They KNOW who they are and use a particular chatroom to talk BS about others behind their back (I know about this too and WHO EACH OF THEM are.)
