Tri Zone... Welcome to the next dimension in futuristic fantasy!  Tri Zone integrated futuristic sounds, scoring, and visual effects for that time.  

 

This table was done by using images from the web for the playfield and plastics, allowing me to accurately place all elements. I did use some overlays from Kiwi's prior table image as well as a couple primitives. Thanks to Redbone for enhancing that playfield, target, and backwall images.  Also thanks to  the VPW team for feedback and testing.  

 

I updated to the latest VPW standards, physics, general illumination light mapping, shadow baking, 3D inserts, Alllamps insert routines, updated backglass for desktop, playfield mesh for a saucer bevel, roth drop targets, standalone compatibility, sling corrections, updated flipper physics, VR and fully hybrid modes, Flupper style bumpers and lighting, gBOT system and trough. Dozens and dozens of hours were spent studying gameplay videos to match the table skill shots and physics action.

Another cracker from Uncle Paulie. I love these bonus driven, spinner ripping tables of this era and hadn't had much time on this one previously. Looks and plays superb.

Looks and plays so beautiful and is very fun to play, great, thank you.

So very well done!! Superb SSF and the table looks and plays fantastic. The option to adjust the ROM volume with F12 is a very nice feature, thanks!!

Had a lot of fun with this table this morning.  I never played the original in person, but this one "feels" right.

Wow, what a fantastic looking table. The lighting really brings out the amazing 70's Sci-Fi art.

The table plays really well and all is beautifully laid out to the detail.

Thank you for sharing your talents with us.

 

As someone else mentioned, having the ROM volume as an option in the F12 menu is great!

Could I suggest for EM's and SS tables that they get an F12 background sound option like Fathom has?

That way we could run our own music by Sound Manager file swap? Perhaps with volume control in the menu?

 

Thank you again for the work of art!

The only thing better than a new UnclePaulie release is one for a table I haven't even *heard* of before, and from one of pinball's golden eras, no less. Thanks as always, UP, very eager to play this! 🍻
