Theatre of Magic V1.0P Released

[PacDude]

Table by Fuseball, Sacha (Macho), PD
========================


Note: -This has been sitting on my hard drive for quite some time. I initially did some update work to Macho's mod of Fuseball's table to get rid of some bugs, add a few things and get gameplay the way I wanted. I had permission to release it as an official update from Fuseball, but I never got around to redoing parts of the script and what not and as my own table methods progressed, I lost a bit of interest in this style of a table. I decided I'd go ahead and make it available so you can benefit from having some of its nice features, including Macho/Sacha's work to have a moving Tiger Saw, mirror effect, etc. I've thrown in a few more additions before releasing it and did some quick work on the flashers in the script and what not so they function normally instead of being run through the light system.

Note that the table is fully angle independent and can be altered freely from the background editor. Only the backbox won't move and so you can safely push it out of the way or delete it if you prefer a different angle view.

Various features such as the working Tiger Saw, GI effects, etc can be disabled via the F6 menu.

Note also that like with all VPM tables, you must have legal copies of the rom sets to actually play the table. These do not come with the table and should NEVER be distributed with it. Use this product at your own risk.

[PacDude]

After over 40 times trying to download the file I finally got it. I tried IE, Firefox, Opera and a download manager and I finally got it after many times trying with it.

The problem was that I kept getting a download error message at or about over halfway through the download. Connection with the server was lost and Server doesn't support download resuming. Start from the beginning and it would just cut me off again. if the server supported download resuming I could have finished the download.

Now I have the table and no problems extracting it. Just like it should be.
But I must say that , it has to be the most trouble I have ever had getting a file to download.

The table does play well and the angle independence was the reason I wanted it , plus it's a PD table. Thanks PD

Actually, it's mostly a Fuseball/Macho table. I just fixed a bunch of bugs, added a cabinet, moved the options to the F6 menu instead of on the keyboard and a few other things plus adjusted some gameplay so it felt a bit closer to the real table (still really not there, IMO).

yeah the mirror doesn't update very smoothly.
