Permission to MOD?: Yes, with approval


Table based on Viper Night Drivin' by Sega from 1998.
 
3D Toys by: Andrei Maraklov, which I borrowed from Goldchico's table.
 
Thanks to batch for the desktop backdrop!
 
Remember to check the color options in the F12 user options menu, where you can change the ramp and the car colors.
 
Notes about this table:
I saw Goldchico's and Bigus tables, and I thought I should like to play the table with a closer size to the real table. Not that those tables did not play well, but sometimes I get an idea and it is better to try it out. So I made this table with a playfield size and a layout as close as the real table. Then I thought about to add some more color to the graphics, and here it is the result :) The table uses normal balls, with normal weight, it doesn't use UV lights either.

Yes the original uses glow balls, and UV lights, but I wanted to make a plain table, with iron balls :) Bigus table is very nice, so there is no need to make another one just the same :)

Yes, but it is complicated to do if you don't know well the editor :) It was the meaning to add them to the F12 menu, but I forgot to do it :) I'll make an update. I'll wait a few days in case there are other things I need to fix, like bugs :)

If you want to check the side blades you may add this to the Sub Table1_OptionEvent(ByVal eventId) at the end of the script

 

 

    ' Side Blades
    x = Table1.Option("Side Blades", 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, Array("Hide", "Show") )
    If x Then
        Cabinet_Side.Image = "sideblades"
        Cabinet_Side.Material = "Plastic"
    Else
        Cabinet_Side.Image = ""
        Cabinet_Side.Material = "Metal Blue"
    End If
 
That's all, then you can turn them on or off :)
I'll add that to the next revision :)
