Thanks Jpsalas we made a good team :otvclap:

This is a super rare pinball from the Playmatic company. It took me almost two years to find someone to tell me all the game rules and there were also very few images of it, but in the end I vectorized the complete playfield and the plastics. A lot of work, but the result is worth it. Enjoy it.

I attach a video where my friend explain the game rules:

excellent table, thank you both!

 

JP, please can you change the cgamename, because there exist already another (real) rom named "clown", for the Zaccaria table...

so we need a different cgamename for this one, maybe "clown1971"

There's a Clown-Zaccaria and a Clown-Inder already. On my cab I'll be renaming it Clown-Playmatic.

@Itchigo
Yes, you can rename it in your locally stored Script.
But it depends on JP, to change the cgamename in his table "globally"
So perhaps i could create a dof config entry for his table, as i did it for his new table "Sound Stage"
Of course i can independently create a dof config, and name it "clown1971"
But then every single table User (with dof Equipment) need to change the Script locally at his own.
So it would be much easier If JP would maybe use this cgamename in his next Update of this table.

Hey JP, you may have to re-upload the file, the latest seems corrupted with the playfield image all messed up. It's kinda psychedelic (or I've had too much beer :bar1: )
