Catacomb (Stern 1981)

---

Everyone goes to his final reward eventually.  And few ever escape.  Either way, their money ALWAYS remains behind in Catacomb - the thrilling pin game from Stern.   Having a player controlled action-packed backglass, combined with a super fast playfield, Catacomb demands the ultimate in refined skills and cunning strategy.  What numbers should be picked?  What colors must be chosen?  Only seconds to decide... as a simulated voice alerts the player to his options.

 

Thanks to Hauntfreaks for providing me with a freshly scanned playfield, and thanks to Redbone for helping with various upscales and graphics cleanup, and lots of other graphic updates.

 

The whole table was done utilizing latest VPW standards for physics, lighting, GI baking, 3D inserts, playfield mesh, shadows, drop targets, 3D inserts, etc.  Dozens and dozens of hours were spent studying gameplay videos to match the table skill shots and physics action.  

 

I've included default settings for the ROM options, as well as being able to change the ROM sounds in the F12 menu.  (Note if you want to change the ROM volume, you'll need to restart the table after the change.).  Also, if you want to change the ROM settings themselves, you need to change the "SetDIPSwitches to 1" in the script, and then use the F6 menu to change.  Ball options are also available in the script.  All other options (including VR rooms) are in the F12 menu.

 

I reused the code from the prior HSM/lander table, as it was required to work with the B2S functionality.  However it's been updated, AND if you are a VR user, I've created the backglass to be fully 3D and functional.

 

Thanks also to the VPW team for testing and feedback!

Edit: after changing the table position while the head areas was showing on desktop the grey box is left behind when that part of game play is done. Restarting the table fixes the issue.

 

after the pop up screen disappears I get this grey square that will not go away. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it so I can continue play?  Thanks.
