Junk Yard (Williams 1996)

I've played this table a lot on FX3 (Classic Arcade) before my VPX days. It was tough-playing there, not because the game is ridiculously hard, but rather because of the fast space-ball physics used. TastyWasps did a brilliant job to make this table play challenging in the right kind of way, and where you know if you lose a ball, that it is (mostly) your fault 😉 . The table also looks great and now I enjoy my games on it.

Plays like a dream, so smooth

Dude! very nice. Looks great and plays better. Thanks man.

I got in a fight with the wife last night, and got stuck in the DogHouse. Fortunately, @TastyWasps gave me a few pieces of toast to put Spike out for a bit. I found out last night that It's not hard to play in the yard. This re-creation is an absolute MUST have. From one of the top VPX players, comes the table you will love to hate, or hate to love, and it is extremely faithful to the real thing. Barry Oursler might even be tricked, or at the very least impressed.  

Installation: Straight forward, no fluff. Load and play! Since when have you seen a table that includes a play guide and strategies??!?!

Play: I had spent some time playing this on FX3 and VPX recently, and when asked to help test, I jumped at the chance. This is a wonderful table for beginners and experts alike. Shot flow is strong, and there is a lot of rebound action to plan fancy shots with. The toys are awesome, including a toilet, the doghouse, an incredibly satisfying crane to smash, and more. This has been tastefully re-created in VPX like never before. The shots are challenging, and not repeatable if you don't get it right, unlike other versions I have played. The crane has the proper feel when you smack it, and ramping up into the toilet is a simple joy.

Graphics: The new playfield and shadow work are top notch, this is a huge improvement! Make sure you grab the 64 color DMD as suggested to really take this table to the next level.

Conclusion: I believe this is Tasty's first released effort, and I am more than impressed. Someone had to pick me up off the floor with jealousy when I heard he had made a table, but after seeing this, I can only imagine what we may see in the future from this incredible talent. As always, the VPW boys seem to be at it again assisting with coding, testing, and more. It is wonderful to see these collaborations, new authors, and inspired work. You cannot go wrong downloading this, and please leave a like if you enjoy it!

Flipers seem to be too weak. Hard to shot (from ball rests on fliper position) big ramps a little easier WC ramp. Most often ball reach 3/4 table distance. I tryied on VPX and latest beta. Also I checked gameplay on real pinball to compare. GFX is great, red flashers a little to dim.

Thanks for a greeeeeat table!!!!   

One thing - I also have problem with the wrecking ball always moving and making rattling sounds, even when the table is in attract mode.

Can anyone help me with this, please? Thanks!!

Amazing job ! Improvements are incredible ! Just one thing : how do you lower the sound of the wreckingball chain ? It's moving all the time, and makes a loudy noise as an unfriendly background sound // thanks a lot for this table !

Great table! Has anyone figured out the thing with the rattling sound of the wrecking ball? I play 1.83 in VPX8 standalone (Batocera V42) with a single screen, no VR goggles/ headset, no nudging and the ball keeps on swinging causing the noise. It can slighly swing all the time, that doesn't bother me, but the sound is disturbing. Any idea?

Great table and epic VR Room 😍 Thanks for sharing!

merci

Great table and a classic I heard so much about but never had a chance to enjoy in real life. Thanks for the great work!

Beautiful Table!!!

Much Fun!

Thank You!!

Looks awesome Thank you for all your work its so much appreciated. 🙏😎

thank you

Nice table plays really well

Nearly every game I see is new for me and I'm slowly learning to understand influences from great table designers and how these get carried through to new creations. I'm looking at this table through fresh eyes so so a big thanks for the tutorial. That is really handy. Its a fun table for sure and plays smooth as. Physics are just in the sweet spot. I can hear some Red and Ted sounds, The Creature from the black lagoon Move your car, the Mamushka target hit that carries through to Adams family.What is it with Williams and the Mid Nineties. So many great tables. This is a wonderful creation brought to us by someone who knows their way around a pinball game.🙂Super effort Tastey Wasps

vamos testar, essa mesa é uma das melhores em que joguei nos anos 90

Big thanks

J'ai découvert cette il y a peu .. 

elle est super sympa merci  

Hi guys

Great table

I don´t know what happen, but even in 1.62 or 1.7 version there is a sound like a lot of balls falling when playing. Did anyone have this kind of issue..

Thanks 

Brilliant table, been waiting for this one.

plays, looks and sounds good.

keep up the good work sir. 

This looks fantastic!  Never been a big fan of Junkyard,  but will sink some time into this.  Thanks!

woho, very nice update !

perfect lighting and sound

thank you

Wonderful table!  Plays very well.  Challenging for me, but my skill level is low.  Everything about the table just works.  It's great fun.  Thank you everyone involved in making this table a reality for us virtual players!

Super super super nice update !
Already played a lot, and will spend a lot of time on it.
Thank you !!!!!

From the man who can make even wasps taste good, a wonderful and very solid release!

The gameplay is great and the addition of Fleep sounds and visual improvements makes it a keeper.

Thank you for the hard work and sharing it with us!
