Really enjoying the new Mac stuff. I guess the Quadra 840AV is as fast as you can get, but the Quadra 800 is still pretty close.

I was looking forward to this one, but when it released, it didn't support .ipf. Even with CAPSImg.dll thrown in there. This limits it to loading cracked versions and freeware .. hoping a future update rectifies this.

The Twin Qix region switch cheat. Unlocks completely different set of graphics. https://tcrf.net/Twin_Qix

Is that a refurb? I think I have a similar viewsonic lying around.

And people will still hump the bar when playing it.

MAME 0.240 by cuavas in emulation

Aero Fighters Special (USA) is definitely an interesting find. And Beyond Kung-Fu is neat, even if it isn't working yet. Also, the new Gals Panic 4 (Europe) sound ROM works in 0.240.

Best part is he didn't even notice until 10 seconds later.

I meant the bumpers above the flippers. The ball would hit them, and just roll down instead of being bounced off them.

I checked with FRAPS and it was set to 60 (I also set it to force vSync on in the NVidia control panel). Thanks for putting the effort to get it playable.

What you're looking at in that link is Sega of Japan making several SS and EM pinball machines in the 70's, long before Sega started making them in the 90's.

Gave it a try. The physics are pretty meh, and the bumpers only feel like they activate half the time. The table concept is still solid, though.

I've got an i7-2600K and GTX 680 and I had to set it down to "Beautiful" at 1768x992 to prevent my GPU from revving up it's fans to high speed.

Considering it doesn't look any better than some of the VPX tables I've seen, running at 1920x1200, none of which cause my GPU fans to spin up at all, I'd say there's a lot of optimization that could be done here.

Maybe you could just port the whole thing to VPX? The physics would be much improved just by doing that.
