Wacky Races... (try it out!)
« on: April 23, 2011, 12:11:35 PM »
Hi guys.
I'm wondering how many of our AP members use VP, Pinmame or Visual Pinball?
If you dont know what it is please ask...

I used it a lot when I first started collecting to help recall games I knew from the past or to get a feel for the theme of ones I didn't. Nearly wore it out playing BBB while waiting for the real deal.

Umm. Ok well VP, Pinmame and future pin are all pinball simulation programs run on PC systems.
I have found a table that has really amazed me and all my friends and family.
Wacky Races!
It is on a Visual Pinball Forum (Sorry Admin, I'm Not trying to steal Aussie Pinball users) and the only problem is you need to register to download the 6mb table (file).
I would like some people on this forum to play it... http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?automodule=downloads&req=idx&cmd=viewdetail&f_id=2193
If you dont  have Visual Pinball (Pinmame) than I can give instructions on how to get the program (you dont need to be a member to download their program but you need to be a member to download their Roms and Tables.)
I would like to talk about getting this table made oneday on a real machine not a computer or computer generated pinball (Future Pin)
I dont know what else to say...
Please try it  %$%

I've got TSPP and T3 among my tables - I think its just the SAM system games they won't emulate to keep things fair for Stern and their new games.

I think the Nucore guys might have contributed to pinmame, but it's open source and there's heaps of people involved Pete from what I understood.

That Wacky Races is fun, sure brought back memories of watching the cartoon!! Thanks for the link.

I have TSPP and T3 also.  I had LOTR running but it was a little buggy they may have sorted that out by now.

And if you play TAB's 'Starship Troopers' or Greywolfs 'Sure Shot', you are playing tables which I supplied the pictures for :)

Also supplied knowledge for one of the Scared Stiff tables

While we're on pinmame and racing themes, check out this original table based on the days of Shuey showing Coultard that Coultard was always going to be a number 2...

I used to use these programs (or some of them) before I got a real pinball machine.

Haven't bothered since.
