This is SLAMT1LT’s Halloween (Ultimate Pro) table which has been updated to my Big Bloody Mike mod. It has been completely updated to use the newest BAM features to create an amazing real-time visual treat with many cool new additions, as well as excellent new mechanical sounds from FLEEP!
See new effects, such as blood spilling down the playfield during Score Drain, animated spotlights, flashlight ball, pumpkin ball, and animated Michael Myers character which will stalk you on the playfield and in the VR Game Room.
FizX
This table has been fully updated with FizX 3.0 for game changing new physics on Future Pinball. FizX uses techniques similar to nFozzy on VPX to completely change the physics for the flippers, slings, rubbers, targets, ball behavior and more that allows this table play much more realistically than anyone ever thought was possible on Future Pinball. You will be amazed at the difference!
PinEvent V2
This table is also updated to fully support PinEvent V2 features (DOF, PUP SSF, PUP DMD). It has modern PUP DMD display options that can work with all setups. With it's crisp HD text and dazzling videos, it's sure to wow everyone who sees it.
For a video walkthrough of the updates, new features, and all game modes, watch here:

TABLE OPTIONS
BAM Ray Cast Ball Shadows:
this table was created to look best with the new BAM Ray Cast Ball shadows
this feature is ENABLED on the table script by default
this feature requires a fast video card, and will use much more of your GPU
if the table doesn’t run smooth, then your PC may not be fast enough to handle this feature (and you should disable it)
To disable this feature, you MUST “first” disable it in TABLE OPTIONS (in the table script), AND in the BAM menu “afterward” while playing
open BAM menu (~ or Q by default), and goto "Addons - Configure Ball and Shadows"
BAM Menu - Light and Post Processing settings:
BAM Lighting and Post Processing settings are set by the table script and will ALWAYS override the user's settings
this is required to ensure that all lighting is set correctly at all times.

This project was started originally by wrd1972 and iaakki in VPW started to rebuild it to match the correct dimensions.
This is almost a full rebuild as everything had to move and various things were fixed, so that this can support PROC games too (officially there may not be such available as of now).
Other VPW members who helped making this:
fluffhead, Leojreimroc, Fleep, Sixtoe, ClarkKent, rothbauerw, Nestorgian, Rawd, Cyberpez, Bord, Apophis, Wylte, Niwak, RIK, PinStartsDan
Most notable changes by VPW:
- New table dimensions and new PF scan from ClarkKent
- Totally new SSF sounds for flips, bumpers and slings edited by Fleep. Recorded from Pinbot by major_drain_pinball
- Baked lighting for GI and flashers, and all colors can be changed via script options
- 3D inserts from Flupper and vectorized insert texts
- New plastics and metal walls primitives
- Support for Proc games
- VRRoom with full backglass
- Updated NF/Roth physics
- Full change notes at the end of the file

At last! Here it is! VPW are very proud to present our first blender toolkit table!
This table requires at least VPX 10.7.2 and the VR version requires at least 10.8.0-514
**edit** PinMAME 3.5 is also required.
(Download Links Below)
Iron Man is a very hard arcade style pinball by John Borg with short brutal games and is a regular of the pinball competition circuit.
Development started in September 2021, Sixtoe had talked about wanting to redo it as there was no accurate version, but the only available playfield was wrongly aligned, poor quality and there were no other decent assets for it so it was a non-starter.
But whilst Sixtoe was finishing off Judge Dredd, out of the blue Bord supplied a full playfield scan including all plastics! So at this point it was all systems go, we then spent some t-shirt money on a full set of decals, Dazz got the Iron Monger toy and EBisLit got the Whiplash and Warmachine toys and Dazz 3D scanned them all in for us.
A few months into development when it was playing well and being built in Blender by Sixtoe, Niwak started to make real progress with the blender toolkit, and rather than going through the process of Tomate running it through blender octane and building all the UVmaps (which takes a looong time) we decided to shift development to the toolkit version and put it on hold whilst that was developed further.
A few months later when the toolkit was working well, development was picked up again on Iron Man with Sixtoe, Tomate and Niwak working together developing both the table and Niwak bugfixing the toolkit as problems arose (particularly with the Iron Monger toy!).
Then just lots of testing and tweaking and here we are!
Current default ROM is 1.85ve as 1.86ve does not have fastflips enabled yet.

UPDATE: Halloween 1978-1981 (Original 2022) 1.03
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
After extensive play in a tournament last week, a couple of small bugs were discovered:
- Some lights not lighting up in order: FIXED
- Multi-ball activation not fast enough: FIXED
- Some repeat audio callouts on the drain: FIXED
You ONLY need to download the table itself for this update.
No other files were edited / changed.
Thank you for all the comments, reviews and beer support! Apophis and I much appreciate it!

BACKSTORY:
- - - - - -
This table is solely based on Halloween (1978) and Halloween II (1981) with a small reference to Halloween III (1982)
Halloween 2 is one of the greatest movie theater experiences in my life!
I was 11 and saw it in the theater after seeing the original Halloween (1978) on the original NBC broadcast (edited of course).
The movie audience went absolutely nuts during the whole movie and people were screaming, running out - and when Loomis blows up Michael Myers at the end of the movie, everyone cheered - until he came walking out of the fire - and they started screaming "OH SHIT!!!!"
I will never forget that experience!
- - - - - -
I started this VPX table back in 2018 with Xenonph about a month before the Halloween 2018 remake was gonna come out in movie theaters ... and I got about 80% done with the skills I had at the time which was basically a re-skin with some sound and music added.
Then I went to see the 2018 remake of Halloween and absolutely hated it ... Fucking Blumhouse Garbage!
I was so disappointed in the 2018 remake that I lost interest in finishing this table all together ...
Cut to 4 years later ...
After several years of medical issues / problems, and life and work taking up most of my time ... I decided to take another look at my table I had done about a month ago.
I showed my progress to Apophis and he urged me to finish it in time for this Halloween season - because he thought is was a decent start and worth finishing.
Since I starting using / learning VPX 2018, I have learned a lot more about making / modifying tables ... and between Apophis and I, we completely rebuilt the table it was originally based on (Medusa) replacing every single part on the playfield, re-writing 99% of the script, AND added a slew of new features, effects, and actions to it to basically now be able to call this table an ORIGINAL, and not a re-skin anymore.
No detail or addition to this new table was added without serious thought put forth, and wouldn't enhance / add to the overall gameplay. Everything was approached with the "let's make it the BEST it can be!" attitude.
If Apophis had not urged me to finish this table, or dedicate the time he did to work on this with me ... this table would never have seen the light of day - nor look / play as well as it does. And for that I am truly grateful.
You can expect to see more great things come from the two of us collaborating in the future.
As you can guess - this table took a huge amount of our time to create and make as perfect as possible - PLEASE SHOW YOUR SUPPORT BY USING THE LIKE BUTTON, COMMENT OR REVIEW, OR BEER US!
So - without furthers a-due: "It's TIME, Michael! BOOM!"
NOTES:
- - - - -
There are multiple ways to gain serious points on this table, SKILL SHOT, MULTI-BALL, BONUSES, and EXTRA BALL!
Be sure to READ the RULES for the table by pressing and HOLDING the RIGHT magnasave BEFORE starting an actual game.
TABLE OPTIONS:
- - - - -
We took a great amount of time to make sure this new table had all the necessary options for the player to get the full experience from it - whether playing in Desktop / Cabinet Mode, a system with robust sound system, or little computer speakers. Every aspect of the sound can be adjusted at the top of the script for you to be able to balance out ALL the sounds of the table to your personal preference.
Mechanical Volume, Ball-Rolling Volume, Ramp-Rolling, CallOut Volumes, Effects Sounds, Simulated ROM Sounds, Music Volume, etc can all be adjusted to exactly what you want the table to sound like when you are playing.
Additionally, there are 9 levels of LUT adjustments that can be made holding down the LEFT MAGNASAVE and then pressing the RIGHT MAGNASAVE. We strongly suggest you get the LUT set to how you want BEFORE you play a game because this table used the MAGNASAVE buttons for the 'Fire Gun' save post between the slippers during gameplay.
The overall GI color scheme can be set as well from Normal, to Blue, to Orange coloring. This option can be permanently set at the top of the script, but can also be changed on the fly by pressing the BUY-IN (2) key on your keyboard during gameplay.
SETUP:
- - - - -
Copy / Move the .vpx table to your 'Tables' folder.
Copy / Move the B2S file to your 'Tables' folder - Make sure it is names exactly the same as the table. (If you use B2S Backglass files)
Copy / Move the folder 'Halloween' to your Music folder. (Example: /Music/Halloween)
DMDs and Topper have been included with this package. Choose the DMD (and Topper) that will work best with your system and load it into your front end (Ie: LCD DMD or Real Color DMD)
Multiple versions of the Backglass (for cabinet users) have been included. Choose which backglass you like best to use with this table: Pro, Premium, or Limited Edition.
This table was originally built and fully updated in VPX 10.62 and has been tested in 10.62 and 10.72. It HAS NOT BEEN tested in 10.8 because at the time of release 10.8 is still in Beta.

IT Pinball Madness
-Jp Salas and I, took the bones and layout of Oktoberfest, to bring you this phenom of a game.
-Please read the rules of the game carefully before asking questions.
-Pennywise screams out multiball lock is lit. and NOT just Multiball. so it's not a glitch
-Orbit shots don't count as a lock. same as ramp shots doesn't count as an orbit. you must raise the left ramp to be able to make a full successful orbit.
-add-a-ball can be rewarded at any time, but only collected during a multiball.
-the 4 colored lights on the left-hand side of the left ramp, indicate what multiball will start when you successfully lock ball 3.
-for many more useful tips please read the game rules or watch the video tutorial included. or hold both Magna saves in VR to pop up the instructions.
Please head over to VPForum to leave a big thank you to JP Salas for allowing us to have our own version with fleep and nfozzy and VR released
side by side with his release. Let him know you care. and leave him some love. Cause there will be 2 versions of this table. ours with all the bells and whitles,
the Limited Edition if you will, and His,without VR and JP physics, for the Premium edition. best for lower-end pcs.
Finally, I Would like each and everyone to take a few minutes and check out the credits flyer to see how many people were involved.
And read the warm Thank you letter I Wrote to all of them also included in the pack.
