Barracora (Williams 1981) is one of several Williams System 7 machines, AND was designed by Roger Sharpe, and had 2,350 units made. It's a fun, fast table and higher scores are pretty achievable... 1M-2.5M is a good game. If you can get to 4-5M that is a very high score.
I made Barracora a few years ago and was the first table I did with Redbone. I've learned so much more since then, and physics, graphics and everything is leaps further now, I decided to redo the table. when looking at the old table I realized there were so many things that weren't just right in my opinion I decided to completely start over from scratch.
@redbone completely redid the playfield and Hauntfreaks redid the backglass images. This 3.0 version utilizes the latest VPW standards, physics, alllamps and 3D inserts, backglass for desktop, roth targets, standalone compatibility, sling corrections, updated flipper physics, VR and fully hybrid, Flupper style bumpers and lighting. Baked GI, walls, and created a playfield mesh for the saucer physics. Dozens of hours were spent studying gameplay videos to match the table shots and action. Thanks to the VPW team for the thorough testing!
Once again, I've included several options in the F12 menu including various balls, ball brightness, flippers, caps, plastic edge colors, LUTs, and other VR stuff, including LED undercab lighting, and an AI generated topper as an option based on H.R. Giger's 1974 painting called, Li I. (this was the inspiration of the Barracora lady).
For the ROM settings... The baseline comes pretty much correct except for the high score to date is defaulted to 2.5M and the coins are defaulted to one credit is 3 games. I've included a .nvram file that will adjust the coin/credits to 1 coin is 1 credit. Also, I've set the default high score to 100,000 (2.5 million is too high to achieve, and I was not able to save zero as the high score).
