By original pinball machine, I assume you mean the original Playboy pinball machine. If so then yes I have been looking into it. I almost posted both of them together, but I didn't want to make this one wait for me to get all the graphics together for the second one. So maybe later I will work on a second one.

Let me know if the attached image is the one you are referring to.

Yep that's the one, with Patty and Sondra on the front. So far the new pinball machine works well!

This was actually a request from my Kiss Pinball Machine thread. It looks good in my game except for the scoreboard lighting is off as usual and since there is text on the side panels the right side of the pinball machine looks a little funny because it flips the image horizontally within the game and so the text appears backwards, but only on the right side. I'm not sure how I can fix this, so if you have any ideas please feel free to post them.

I have included some screenshots, including one of the backwards text problem. Enjoy! :D

I haven't played with any modding tools (I'm more than happy to enjoy the fruits of everyone else's labor :nana: ), but would it be possible to use a reverse image of the picture, so when the game flips it it comes out looking normal?

I could use a reverse image and that would fix the text on the right hand side of the machine, but then the text would be backwards on the left hand side. By default it uses the same image for both sides of the machine and it reverses it automatically for the right side. Unfortunately I am not experienced enough to try to mess with the code to fix it manually. Maybe someone that knows more about it will come along with a fix. Until then it is only a minor problem.

I did a pinball machine the other day and I didn't like the way it reversed the image so I used half the space for the regular image and mirrored it in the other half so it's on both sides the right way and the wrong way. I'm still half asleep, did I confuse you too?
