First Release v1.0 3-14-2006 Just your average Bally table. The outlanes can be greedy, so I added a special "hidden" adjustment. Just Press the "E" key to toggle an extra post at the entrance of the right outlane. Press "E" again to make it go away. It defaults to the factory fresh "hard" mode. :) Everything but the Spinner is rendered. Switches and targets are animated. The table is set permanently to fadeing ligts mode, as no more than 2 lights at a time go off and on, I think anyones machine should be able to handle that. :) Press "F6" to adjust the dips. Press "7" multiple times to set the score award levels. There is text up near the big score to tell you what setting you are on. This table also has the incremental plunger. Use the up and down arrow keys to adjust the strength, and hit enter to launch the ball. But it defaults to the original, Enter key only plunger. As always, since my tables use lots of reels, and most modern video cards have problems with vp reels, it is highly advised that you run my speed fix, which turns off Direct Draw acceleration. I have included the speedfix files in the zip containing this table. Thanks to Inkochnito for his nice standard dip adjustment menu, and many thanks to Gaston for his original version. Enjoy Eight Ball! Kurt Herman kurt@scapinosvpins.com
