EM Playfields 2022-02-21

[Phoenixx]

Today, whilst hacking around on my PC, i coincidentally found a way to extract the playfields and backglasses from MS Pinball Arcade. Rather than just deleting them i thought perhaps somebody wants to use them to make a 'Scapino Style' kind of table, so here they are, original size and bitdepth, just as stored in the DLLs. They are very well upscalable too, i turned them testwise into 24BPP bitmaps and doubled the size with IrfanView (resampled with MitchellFilter) and they still looked pretty damn good,...

Note: The rest of the PF's have been bundled up and moved to a single resource download here:

Awesome stuff. Thread moved to "Real Pinball, General Pinball" and stickied for the moment.

Resources really just need to be moved to an appropriate area of the site, then this thread un-stickied.

Yeah stuff like this should probably be in the Resources section, thought I had a request for Phoenixx's old sub domain info, but can't find it.

I'm not sure if over 10 year old backglasses would help folks but amazingly, Phoenixx's images are still here!

I need to mention that the images in this thread are still unbelievable, after numerous software updates and years, they live.
