I have put my version of Demolition Man in the Downloads section.

Extra keys used are 2,A,' which are buy-in,left and right handle buttons.

I put in a couple helpful items such as:
1. the Claw award indicator so you can tell which award you'll be getting when you drop the ball out of the claw during the Claw loaded (its located above the cryoclaw)
2. an extra set of MTL lights so its easier to see them.

Warning: no need to read any further unless you're interested in some rants on some bugs left to work out and also what I was messing around with but scrapped for future updating.

I had started messing around with decals/reels on the backdrop but only used the left and right trigger handles (and the Claw award reel) on this release...perhaps in a future update I'll include more decals/reels on the backdrop. But for now I left the illusionary effects done by the side images on the targetwalls. I couldn't quite get the ramps looking right with decals (need more practice at workin with them) so I left those as 2 rail ramps. I'm usually very lazy when it comes to ramps but I put in some sidetargetwalls for the ramp ends.

The car crash should depend on how hard the ball hits the initial target as to whether you get just a single or double car crash award. As it is at the moment you'll get double car crash award if the ball breaths on the initial target.

Still a couple buggy items in the table :( The left and right triggers are controlled by the regular flipper keys. I hadn't set up anything to do that so I'm assuming that its done in wpc.vbs or core.vbs? not sure because I hadn't looked at either to see if it was set up that way. Because the left and right triggers being used by the flipper keys I think that's what causes the double toggling bug of the MTL lanes. One change by the flipper and second change by the trigger button.

The only time the GI reacts is tilt warnings and tilt. I'm guessing there are some dimming levels in between on and off that aren't recognized by Pinmame at the moment.

Anyhow if you've read the whole post more power to ya...have fun with the table.
 
Thanks for your efforts, Jamin7474.

I'm much behind on playing actual tables (from autumn (?) 2005 until now). I hope I can regain lost time from hardware issues from now on.

    @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
