    A-B-C Bowler (Gottlieb, 1941) (IkeS WIP) Backglass

    This could use more work getting the double-edges properly aligned (fisheye alert), but other than, this is about the best I could do with the source image (link below). Note: just because the accidental color variation looked nice, I smoothed out the reddish-purple tones along the bottom &...

    Tramway (Williams, 1973) (Sat+140) (IkeS) Backglass

    The docs that we see for this table depict an extraordinarily bland color scheme, fairly rare for the industry. This here represents a better guess on my part as to what the real colors looked like.
  10. Tramway (Williams, 1973) (IkeS) Backglass

    Tramway (Williams, 1973) (IkeS) Backglass

    Seems there's only one photo ever of this backglass (at the IPDB), which may not even exist any more, so I figured I'd do a hi-def (2000x1752) rebuild. All the main issues have now been fixed, altho I cheated slightly and left some edge-shadowing intact across a couple small areas that didn't...

    From IPDB: There are two versions of backglass pictured in this listing. The differences are in the colors of the large rings and the color of the Ball In Play sign. The two versions are arbitrarily numbered here: Version #1: The rings, starting with the outermost one, are colored...

    Love this backglass and how it turned out. It's from the home version of the game, btw. https://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=439

    Could probably use more work, but I'm calling it 'finished' for now. Thanks to BGResto for the preview this was built on!
  19. Big Bang Bar (Capcom, 1996) (IkeS) Backglass

    Big Bang Bar (Capcom, 1996) (IkeS) Backglass

    This turned out cleaner and more color-authentic than the IPDB version, so I'm adding it here.

    Zephyr (Bally, 1937) (PN WIP) Backglass

    Pretty terrible source image, but the best available at the time. Probably a very good candidate for a vector redrew, considering how many similar areas there are.
  22. Wizard! (Bally, 1974) (PN WIP) Backglass

    Wizard! (Bally, 1974) (PN WIP) Backglass

    D'oh, nice light bulb reflection in the upper right.
  23. White Sails (Bally, 1939) (PN WIP) Backglass

    White Sails (Bally, 1939) (PN WIP) Backglass

    WIP issues are shadowy reflections, including some funny ones that almost look like ghosts with eyes, and even a ghost bunny in the middle of the image(!)

    Totem (Gottlieb, 1979) (WIP IkeS) Backglass

    This is turning out nicely (thanks to Mark Schneider's ref pic), but there's a problem, in that despite all the cleanup, small amounts of detail are missing here and there due to the original photo quality. This can easily be seen when comparing against Wildman's version (look at the torso)...
  26. The Red Max (Bally, 1971) (WIP) Backglass

    The Red Max (Bally, 1971) (WIP) Backglass

    Rare pinball. The source photo was skewed but good, and the source BG's in nice shape, mostly. Main issues here are the reflection along the top border as well as figuring out how to repair the lettering without losing the nice lamp glow.
  27. Sun Valley (Chicago Coin, 1962) (PN WIP) Backglass

    Sun Valley (Chicago Coin, 1962) (PN WIP) Backglass

    Fairly usable as-is, altho there's plenty of small issues that could be improved here and there, including more blending / anti-aliasing of the ski-lift chair. There's very few good pics of this game to compare by, but one thing I'm kind of baffled / bemused by is the darker blue upper sky. If...
  28. Tahiti (Chicago Coin, 1949) (WIP IkeS) Backglass

    Tahiti (Chicago Coin, 1949) (WIP IkeS) Backglass

    Why am I uploading this WIP? Mainly because there are simply no good shots of this backglass across the entire 'Net, and at least this one is clean & usable, even though it still needs lots more work. Compare to the previous upload here to see how far it's come already.

    Sky Kings (Bally, 1974) (WIP IkeS) Backglass

    Sourced from a nice big, clear reference photo, but still needs more work. Mainly anti-glare cleanups and better pixel reconstruction where the flash once reflected (to the right of "Bally").

    I’m looking for Contact (1933, Williams)
    Quote
  • A (Guest) Alena:
    (AI prompt) is contact available (1933 version)?
    Quote
  • ChatGPT @ ChatGPT:
    @, As of my knowledge cutoff in 2023, the 1933 version of the film "Contact" does not exist. It seems there might be a confusion with the title or the year. The well-known film "Contact" is a science fiction drama released in 1997, directed by Robert Zemeckis and starring Jodie Foster and Matthew McConaughey. It is based on the 1985 novel of the same name by Carl Sagan.

    If you are looking for a different film from 1933 or a film with a similar title, please provide more details so I can assist you better. If you are indeed referring to the 1997 film "Contact," it is widely available on various streaming platforms, DVD, and Blu-ray.

    New to FP. I'm on Linux and using Lutris. Have installed FP from the Lutris repo. It does not have BAM support so I can only play non-BAM tables. Some of the tables show up w/o a playfield image...how do I fix that?
