JAWS - BIGGER BOAT EDITION
Table version: 2.0 (July 2026)
======================================
This table began as Rom's classic JAWS table for Future Pinball from many years ago. Then SLAMT1LT modded it over the years which evolved to his Ultimate Pro version. I proceeded to mod and update the Ultimate Pro table for FizX physics, PinEvent, and a complete table overhaul with many new additions and features which became the BIGGER BOAT EDITION.
It has been completely updated to use the newest modern BAM features to create an amazing real-time visual treat. It’s also been overhauled to use the latest FizX physics which completely transforms a Future Pinball table to have excellent modern physics for the entire table! I updated it to my PinEvent V2 standard, to allow for optional DOF, SSF, PUPDMD and other features that take this to another level. (now also updated to use PUP 2.0’s latest features!)

What options can you try if your GPU has less VRAM (less than 6 GB)?
- you can enable Texture Compression (in FP video settings) which greatly reduces how much vram is used
- if you use a "Start FP" bat file, then you will also need to enable Texture Compression in that file!
- enabling Texture Compression may take a little longer to load, but not much
