About This File

This is an altsound in G-Sound format for Alien Star (Gottlieb 1984).  I tried to tastefully do it without "overdoing it".  Hopefully, you will enjoy.    I feel like the game play sounds of targets, bumpers, and slings match the game and also some pretty dramatic endgame sounds that are pretty cool.  @DarthVito said "I love the sfx you have when the ball loads up after a drain, very very cool.  Almost don’t mind draining lol! "      Hehe, I take that as a compliment and actually feel the same way. :)  Cheers man!


This has ended up being a culmination of original (pseudo stereo processed), replaced, and supplemented sounds that seem to go really good with this table.  Please make sure you read the latest versions release notes nad update your VpinMame to a version that supports Gottlieb System 80A altsound processing.


***NOW FIXED*** see v4 release notes.
Please note that some roms (like this one) appear to have a clocking pattern of sound calls that seem to get in the way of sound playback.  You will probably experience some sounds not registering from time to time or even the background sounds not appearing at first, but them come in on the 2nd ball.  90% of the time it's all good though and some of the intermittent sounds missed aren't really that bad.   I talked to @MrGrynch about this and hopefully one day there will be a modification to the altsound processing to drop these unnecessary calls.  This rom in particular sends out a flood of calls to 0x000.  When this happens, hopefully these sounds drops will stop.  For now, this is what we have and I do hope you enjoy.

Be on the lookout for @UnclePaulie's release of Alien Star and @hauntfreaks backglass.    It's a fun table and where at all possible, I want to give @BorgDog much thanks for providing the graphic assets!  This table would not have been possible if he didn't give permission to redo it and hand off his graphics like he did.  Thank you kind sir!

Here's a  quick youtube video to demonstrate all the various sounds that are in this pack:

Top notch stuff! Really tastefully done. It fits this great machine like a glove and is much more pleasant to listen to than the original rom sounds.

Wow - this is really cool. Very tastefully done - the new FX sounds really add to the table, but still keep the original character. Nice job!
