First of all big thanks to BorgDog for the original table and allowing people to mod his tables!

Someone asked for some wood sides on this table and I saw how bad the playfield was so I started a full restoration on it then just kept going lol

I Normally don't mess with older tables but I enjoy this one and its kinda different with only 1 slingshot and a Turning Target.

Updated: 

               1. Playfield Complete rework and hand painted

               2. Plastics rework

               3. Physics Updated with (nFozzy)

               4. Sounds Updated

               5. Lighting updated

               6. Script code updated and added F12 menu for Desktop/ Cabinet mode

               7. Misc updates

Table and Cabinet POV included Hope you Enjoy it!

Awesome work on this, I love this table.  It's a near and dear table to my childhood.... this machine was in my bedroom as a kid, and is currently in the garage awaiting a full restoral when the time comes.   I'll redo the pup on this table at some point, i wanna make the pup a little better.  Make sure to use the NEW GOTTLIEB roms etc, they are required.  The old rom no longer works right trust me. ----------->Bally 6803 & Gottlieb GTS3 nvram pack v1.2.1.zip-NEW FIXED Gottlieb ROMS for VPinMAME.zip

Thank you for all your work on this enjoyable Gottlieb. I had fun on a previous vpx version albeit always wanted someone talented to improve the physics. Previous versions played a little too easy but the nfozzy magic applied has increased enjoyment tenfold. Thanks so much for this and all your other contributions.

Wonderful job on the cleanup and enhancements.

 

Been enjoying this one so much today. Thank you for all the hard work!

I love the table -- I used to have a Close Encounters lunch box when I was a kid.  This one has nFozzy physics and plays really well.  On top of that the table is fun with a roto-target and spinner that you can abuse.
