Anyone remember William's "Medieval Madness" ?? Probably one of the greatest pinball games ever invented - genuinely funny and exciting. Hadn't seen it for about a decade then I stumbled (literally) into it in a bar in Amsterdam. Spent a helluva lot of money trying to complete it for the first time but never managed it.
Did you know that most pinball games have been emulated, just like AWPs? The quality is very good and you can even tweak the table (I cheated with Medieval Madness and blocked up the sides and lengthened the flippers and completed the game - which ruined it for me forever).
I spend all night as it were Cardinal, trying to get it working! But it's not playing ball...lol I fancy another bash on Addams Family and Doctor Who...but the VBS files aren't working properly
It was a couple of years now when I last did it. I do remember it being a right royal PITA but it was worth it in the end. I can't even try it now cos my laptop would only show half a table.
The only piece of advice I can give is that I recall most games have separate different versions of the same machine, and it was a case of trial and error to get them to work.

THAAAA MA-MUSHKA!
Yer on!
This machine may at times offer a choice where the player has every chance of bankruptcy

At the last count it was in the Hole in the Wall at Waterloo.
And agreed, there was a lot of nice little features, particularly all the comments etc.
I also liked the way that you could set up one of the multiballs (the madness one) so it played better by hitting all 4 of the ramps/loops. ANd the fact that they combined this with trolls.
Although the castle gate was always a bit of a bugger, as it did have a tendency to bounce it straight down the middle, and lead to the tilt

AN engineer's been in recently and tightened it up though. Replay value has gone from 24,800,000 to 39,600,000 and it never pays the MATCH replay. Don't know if they log the scores because 30-40 mil is bread and butter for me so they might just be trying to make some more poundage
Aye you can (usually) set the match %age anywhere from 0-25%
