Thanks destruk and all the other Authors. Solar Ride was the first flipper that I could play as a child.

FS version in the works?

[destruk]

The playfield image for this isn't very good for a top-down perspective. However, for a FS version all it would need is new plastics, new playfield, and updated layout and it'd look pretty good. And by Need - I mean I don't have those images.... ( hint )

Great job, I have fond memories of this game (on the Ocean City boardwalk) especially the special (knocking down all the white targets to leave the red special target standing). I also remember the killer right outlane. Maybe my memory is fuzzy but this was a real drainer as it seemed the inlane almost never got hit due to how far below the slingshot the rail between the in and out lanes was so the ball almost always landed in the outlane. I remember having extra ball lit many times and have the ball drain down the outlane. It seems I am in the minority but I love the old Gottlieb games. Thanks to all who bring back these memories.

Thank you for this early Gottileb SS pinball.
The ball is too small and the sounds for 10, 100 and 1000 points must be deleted.

Yep.This pinball has chimes.Not electric sounds.

[destruk]

Thanks - I forgot that the electronic sounds were emulated by VPM. ( gasp )
I resized the playfield to make the pinball larger - it still fits through all the lanes so it should be ok. Changed the viewing angle to make it fill the screen a bit better, and deleted the 10/100/1000 sound samples. If you're using F6, set it to electronic sounds - if you want chime bells, then you'll need to import those samples you want and add to the solenoid callback lines for them to play.
You'll probably want to delete or move the player 4 score display as the ball shows up on top of it. I didn't want to make it smaller.

Thanks for the update destruk.

[obiwanjohn]

This game came in either solid state or electro-mechanical. I use to own the solid state version. The electronic sounds are correct as I remember.

A full screen version would be cool. If anyone can find a better playfield image, I'm all for that also.

Thanks Destruk for updating this table.
