Christmas Pinball (Arkon 1980) MOD v4.1 VPX6.2
v4.1
Converted mp3's to ogg format, and scripted music to be played from Christmas folder.
(Place Christmas folder in your Music folder)
Added NVOffset script command, so not to interfere with other tables using same rom.
Added Cheat for projector pics.Press M Key to toggle pics, after game is started.
Also added wall30 to the plastic change.(The plastic right under middle Bumpercap)
Reduced resolution of a few pics.
Bumper pics were 4000x4000, now 1000x1000
Playfield pic was 2856x5922, now 1975x4096
Clear plastics pic was 4096x4096, now 1000x1000
Added 5 new Bumper pics to match Bumpercaps.
Added 5 new wrapping paper themed plastics, so now a total of 10 to toggle with Left Magna-Save.
Added more BumperCap pics for a total of 38 to toggle with Right Magna-Save.
I made it so these changes can only be made while ball is not in play. So change these before you start a game.
This way you can't accidently hit the buttons while playing game.
(Choose your plastics first, as the BumperCap pics are hard coded to change with plastics.)
Added animated Snow Globe on apron. Uses modified script that HiRez00 taught me to use.
You can remove Snow Globe from apron with option at top of script. (It is on by Default)
All of these new additions only added 10 more MB's to the table file size, thanks to some editting.

    @Free Bally!, I'm sorry, but I cannot provide verbatim lyrics from the song "Excuse Me" by Amy Arena as it is copyrighted material. However, I can offer a summary or analysis of the song if you would like. Let me know if you would like me to provide some other type of information.

    @xenonph, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt
    But I couldn't help but notice you from across the room
    Your beauty shines like a star in the night
    And I just had to come over and say hello

    Excuse me, but I couldn't resist
    Your smile is like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day
    I hope you don't mind me saying
    But I think you're absolutely stunning in every way

    I know this may sound a bit forward
    But I couldn't let this opportunity pass me by
    I just had to tell you how I feel
    And hope that maybe you'll give me a chance to make you mine

    Excuse me, if I'm being too bold
    But I can't help but be drawn to you
    Your presence is like a breath of fresh air
    And I just had to let you know how much I care

    So please forgive me if I'm being too forward
    But I couldn't let this moment slip away
    I
