New version available -- better support for IPF images, and a new GUI which I haven't yet tried but the preview looks a darn sight better than the existing one!

At least someone cares...
Hope this version won't crash on my machine!

This latest version is incredible, a giant leap forward from the older ones. Easier to use menus and a very welcome Quickstart feature. Just got Pinball Fantasies to work in seconds which just didn't want to know before. I'm going to be up all night now.

Pinball Fantasies!! I love Pinball! you should try Pinball Illusions which i think is better and Slam Tilt which i think is the best.

Slam Tilt IS the best pinball game EVER ! Try it absolutely

Post by **PaulH** » Wed Oct 19, 2005 2:28 pm

Never heard of Slam Tilt, but I shall look it up! I used to spend ages at Uni on the tables, especially the Star Wars one. It was an incredible table.

Ooops, veering OT a bit.

Stay on topic! Stay on topic!

No, it didn't go in, just impacted on the surface...

lmao, I was sayign that second part in my mind before I even saw your line

Does the emulator actually play any faster, as I remember DM being a little slow (then again, that was on ly old machine)

Post by **PaulH** » Wed Oct 19, 2005 2:48 pm

Even with quite a few things running, I am managing 50fps with pinball.

'Great shot kid, that was one in a million...'

There was just somethign about Chaos Engine on the Amiga that felt better than the PC version... I think I have the files aroudn somewhere for emulation

I remember that, too. I first played DM on an A1000, and it would always have a bit of a pause between when a big fireball would hit a bad guy and actually showing the big KABOOM!

I don't know, maybe it was dramatic.

Anybody know where I can get Pinball Illusions?

Sera · Post by **Sera** » Fri Oct 21, 2005 10:40 pm

the only pinballs i ever heard of are pinball dreams and pinball fantasies, i liked pinball dream's ignition best out of all of them

Post by **PaulH** » Fri Oct 21, 2005 11:06 pm

There are quite a few about, and are extremely addictive. Lots of hidden things to find... sound familiar?!

The Billion Dollar Game show table on Fantasies: I actually shot the 1,000,000,000 super bonus after completing all prizes on my Amiga, which promptly crashed it. My favourite is Stones 'n, Bones... obviously inspired by DM!

Antman · Post by **Antman** » Sat Oct 22, 2005 5:08 am

Wow! You actually shot the billion!? I could never get close, always played Party Land and Stones'n Bones alot more.
Anyway here is an fantastic site with Pinball Illusions along with every other amiga game i have wanted to find, most in several different versions. http://www.planetemu.net/index.php?sect ... 257&page=p

Did you get Slam Tilt? See if you can beat my 7.2 billion on Mean Machines

. Also beat all the default highscores aswell, with Night of the Demon being the hardest. Pinball is Awesome!!

Post by **PaulH** » Sat Oct 22, 2005 4:08 pm

That is the best Amiga site I have ever seen! Nice one!

Zoooom sent me Slam Tilt, but not tried it yet: spent about 3 hours last night on Fantasies! Shall slowly work my way through them.

The Billion prize was a fluke, I had gone through all the other prizes, shot some ramp combo and the big red sign in the middle lit! I was shaking like a leaf, but shot the trap to collect it... then it crashed

I managed to get the Reaper on Stones n Bones too, but I was using 5 balls, not three.

I also liked Extreme Pinball on the PC, but can't get it to work on my current machine.

Time to play the Silver Ball...

I tried to download it, but I don't understand the French! It said something about 'telecharger', so I naturally paused. Can somebody help?

Wismerhill · Post by **Wismerhill** » Sat Oct 22, 2005 6:34 pm

telecharger = to download

Post by **PaulH** » Sat Oct 22, 2005 8:21 pm

hehe, thankyou! 'telecharge' in the UK once meant a charge levied by way of a phonecall! As you can guess, I didn't get a GCSE in French.
