Cheetah (Stern 1980)

While you might know me as the guy that does instruction cards, few weeks ago I got into the world of table creation and this is my first table release ever! I couldn't have done it without the help of the fabulous folks at VPW and I am eternally grateful for all the work they have done to make table creation more accessible to people like me. You guys are the BEST! Full credits below...

 

VLM/Blender makeover for a competition favorite featuring enough spinners for even the hungriest spinner freaks out there. 
The table defaults to cheetah2.zip rom BUT many consider cheetahb2.zip the less annoying soundpack available for this game. Change the desired target ROM via the script. Whichever one you choose, its still recommended to run this with PinVol at hand and lowering the table/ROM sounds to acceptable volume. VPX 10.8.0 Required

Keep in mind that cheetah.zip ROM is the parent ROM and its is also required regardless of ROM selection. (Meaning at minimum you need cheetah.zip and cheetah2.zip to play the table as is)
