8 Ball (Williams 1966) 1.2.1

---

Another community EM table that began with Loserman76.

 

I recently saw a guy on YouTube who grew up with these old machines, now collects them, praising the relative brevity of the typical game on an electro-mechanical pinball table. Paraphrasing: "Who's got time for a twenty minute game of Medieval Madness? Sometimes you just want to take a break, slap some flipper buttons, and get back to work."

 

8-Ball is an interesting billiards-style table. Two players makes it a lot of fun ... each of you trying to get all stripes or solids before your opponent does. Clear your balls, loop the 8-ball loop and win another ball. A guy on YouTube that owns an original table says you're doing good if you are able to do this twice in a game.

 

Saved with VPX 10.8.

When playing with headphones the chimes are all the way panned to the right. Does not feel very realistic. Maybe the new camera options menu could include a setting to to place them just a bit off the center instead?

What have chime sound to do with camera options? Nothing!

Just go into sound manager, select the chime sound(s) and change their settings, like fade/balance/volume/output...
