Huge thanks to @jpsalas for creating another amazing table and allowing others to mod his work. The "Playboy 35th Anniversary" pinball machine by Data East emerged at a distinctive crossroads of retro pop culture and mechanical innovation. Released in May 1989, this machine commemorated three and a half decades of the Playboy brand, wrapping its allure in a package that promised both nostalgia and entertainment. Designed by Joe Kaminkow and Ed Cebula, with artwork by Kevin O'Connor, the game was produced during a brief period from May to August 1989, resulting in a total of 2,338 units. I added nFozzy and Fleep, and matched gameplay And thanks to: @studly_do_right for all sorts of audio and visual help @r2z2 for your work trying variations of playfield physics settings (he says Claude assisted as well) @outhere verified the DOF solenoids are firing @Ext2k for VR cabinet assets and mega room @DGrimmReaper for VR animations, imported VR backglass assets, adding Marilyn Monroe Edition backglass to VR as well as original @hauntfreaks Created the backglass assets used in VR, the original and Marilyn Monroe Edition Enjoy!!

This mashup is something I threw together while working on the Playboy altsound. Kind of a "what if Elvira and the Party Monsters crashed the party at Playboy Mansion" sort of thing. To be clear, this release is NOT a table mod, it's an altsound. The preview is essentially the Stern Playboy table, but with a few images of Elvira swapped in for the demo. The images used are included with the altsound. The folder is playboys, but if you want to try the altsound without affecting the original game, I suggest the following: 1. Rename the folder to elvirapb 2. Add this to VPMAlias.txt: elvirapb,playboys 3. Make a copy of the VPX table and open the table script. Look for OptRom = "playboys" and change it to OptRom = "elvirapb" Video preview here: https://mega.nz/file/WdoXALDB#idcerKCnMtMomkUD0SE2SqcMEQ_U8ZAGm0gn29_uTnE

This is an altsound of Stern's Playboy. Using the original sound package over at http://altsound.vpin24.com/ as a base, I decided to change it - mainly to change the default music. It's something I wanted to do for myself, but decided to upload it today in case anyone is interested. EDIT - temporarily removed preview links as I need to re-organize my cloud storage. No changes to the altsound itself.

Playboy (Bally 1978) b2s I've always been hesitant to build this BG, because I always thought the images out there were crappy, come to find out the image from the factory is just crappy because its a print of a hand painted image clean high-res, high-detail, 3k image lots of attention has been given to (fake) mirroring on this authentic lighting, lighting mask and blooms feature lamps with correct fonts and placement cab art dmd with on animation need help? download Full DMD Read Me.txt NEW I'm now including DT-res-files.zip file (this is collection of .res files for DT mode players to use my b2s files on there single screens) these were created by @Cliffy I don't ask or beg for donations... if you feel overwhelmingly compelled to do so, PLEASE donate to the charity of your own choice... this is a hobby NOT a business

⚠️ADULT CONTENT⚠️ Bunnies (and breasts)... Dropping a beta colorization today (for the bunnies 😜), Happy Easter All.. * while it was colored tastefully (IMO), there is nudity that will be show even if adult mode is turned off in the options, as I use playmate images for backgrounds * * Adult mode will still change what sequences get shown in there original format (but colored) * Donation/Beer me: (if you feel like it) https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/Boroka1 Colorization Installation: The playboys.crz will go into your "/altcolor/playboys" folder within VpinMame Requires: DMDExtensions V 2.2.1 [and] Libserum >= 1.6.1 https://github.com/zesinger/libserum/releases (for the backgrounds and extra sprite capabilities I've implemented) If you are receiving a blank DMD screen.. you will need updates to use this colorization. While it is pretty solid, I know I am missing some frames (every sequence can slide left->right, Up->down, down-> up) into any other sequence and be triggered from what appears to be any frame. That said, If you enable dumping.. Please add any of your dump files to the WIP thread so I can see what I may have missed frame wise, and keep and color said frames, or throw them out if deemed not needed. Feedback welcome here or in the WIP thread. Thanks -B

Side blade mod for Playboy (Stern 2002)

300 year ago (I did a quick Google so my math might be off) I decided to see how extreme opposite of a Bally 1978 Playboy table I could mod. As you can see...I am clearly broken. This is my very first attempt at anything like this, so be gentle. This is a reskin built on the work of many giants before me of the Playboy table done by GoldChicco & HiRez00, with original table authors ICPjuggla & gtxjoe based on Original VPX table: Gemini by BorgDog. Say that three times fast. I've tweaked the art some from my original upload back in the vpinball days (kept wanting to get around to a redo of the B2s but it looks like Ryguy417 JUST uploaded a much cooler b2s w/full DMD (haven't tried it YET, but it looks amazing). I've included all the music (which you can adjust with your magna buttons, or turn off if you're an absolute monster). Just place the SesameStreet folder directly in your music folder, and that it. I genuinely had NO idea if anyone would even care to try this out and was flattered that not only did people download it back in the day, but that there are still requests for it. So here it is. My first, and hopefully not my last (maybe I should try the opposite, and take something like Flintstones and make it nightmare inducing! Seriously I should figure out what my next theme should be...am I still talking in brackets? My bad!). DOF should work a treat as well since it worked for the Playboy table. That is all, as always, your ever so humble ninjafu

Playboy 35th Anniversary (Data East 1989) HI REZ.... Thanks to Sheltemke for the pic

A more sexy version of playboy directB2S

Sharing wheels i made for my cab MeDiSt

This table was a from scratch build recreating the Stern Playboy machine. It was co built by myself (85vett) and Luvthatapex. Special thanks goes out to him for all the scripting work. I spent most of the time on redrawing the images. I think we paired up nicely and built a fun table. Fair warning that this is a resource hog table due to the number of animations (6 total) in the machine. Plus we added a PG and a mature version all in the same table. I have no issues on my cab running it with my ledwiz while in hyperpin. Outside of hyperpin I do get some stutters when the ledwiz is active. For weaker machines you may want to export the images and resize them to be a lower resolution. In order to change this table from the PG version to the mature version you need to change the "0" to a "1" on line number 8. ****Warning, the mature version contains nudity. Due not make this script change if this is offensive to you or others that will be able to play/watch the game.**** Their is a direct BS2 backglass for this table that luvthatapex made at - http://vpuniverse.com/forums/files/file/2377-playboy-stern-2002/ In the media pack I added an alternative translite and a couple different wheel images. The alternative backglass is not a DB2S backglass so keep that in mind if you want to use it. I think it goes well with the mature version of the table. Media pack can be found here - http://vpuniverse.com/forums/files/file/2378-playboy-stern-2002/ This table was built under the 9.16 version 608 build. I've played it under the released 9.1.5 release and haven't noticed any glitches. Hope you enjoy! *** Update 7/21 - Vesion 1.02 *** Thanks to the assistance of Aaron James I am launching an update to this table. Aaron tweak some setting to make the table more efficient which should help with PC performance. Some of the things updated are: - Alpha Plunger was updated - X/Y coordiantes updated to make the table less wide looking - physics of the game updated : flippers/rubbers by outlanes /some walls/etc. Table is a bit more bouncy now. - all alpha ramp flashers updated to "additive bi" which makes them look more like The flashers on JP's tables - Updated wall on the left side of skill shot. This should prevent balls from rolling in behind the Skill shot animation when you shoot the ball just to the edge of the lane. - Round Walls added above each sling shot to prevent the ball from stopping on them. Played several games and haven't had it happen again yet. - Added a cover to the whole next to the left ramp. This should prevent the ball from flying into that gap and sticking. Never could get it to happen so hopefully this fixes that issue - Other minor changes to help with table performance Most of the above was completed by Aaron (thanks again for the help). Lastly, in an effort to make sure everyone whom wants to be able to play this table can (hopefully). I created 3 versions. Which are: - High res - Same images as the previous release. Only for those with pretty strong systems. - Low Res - Playfield images and plastic images have been had the resolution reduced. This should help those that have a good system but were getting some studder or texture issues. On my 46 inch LED (now you know why I go with high res images :-)) it's a bit blurry but smaller monitors or TV's should be OK. - Low Res and No GI Flashers - I took the low res one step further and removed all the GI alpha ramp flashers. They weren't animated but these are the things that made the lights glow (outside of the basic GI tweaks on the table images). For all 3 versions I did not touch the Girl animations. If you still have issues I would recommend reducing the resolution on them. I couldn't bring myself to do that as I think that's the best part of the table, so hopefully one of the three table version will work for most of you. *** Update 9/23 - Version 1.03 *** - Script changes made to fix the centerfold bug with MB. - Script changes made to allow the splash triangle to stop on triple jackpot and splash when appropriate. Bonus here is you can now see the girls better :-) - left ramp adjusted to allow the ball to roll under it. Switch 23 it now hit-able and this should prevent ball hangups there. - added wall to the left of the left ramp in the void space to help prevent balls being hung up their as well. - script change to the tease frame animation so it moves more inline with the real table. Big thanks to dupe3d for the scripting changes. I also resized the images so hopefully the full version is playable on everyone's system. If it is not playable for you then you may want to try and resize the images more. What I've uploaded is the lowest res I want to go as lower than that it starts to impact clarity on the playfield. the resize cut most playfield and plastic images in half. *** Update 9/24 - Version 1.04 *** Fixing the bugs that were introduced with 1.03. - Changed the top lane screw to non-colideable so it wont impede the ball from rolling down the wire gate. - added another one way gate that is not visible in the shooter lane which will help prevent ball hang ups - fixed Switches 25, 41 and 42 so they now register properly - watched some more videos of the real table and have corrected the grotto kicker to now kick the ball into the pops as it does on the real table. - removed the dark black from around the switch wires. Now looks more natural - added back the high res version by request ***High res version is only for high power systems. IT WILL crash your Visual Pinball application if you can't run the images needed. If this happens use the low res version. If it still crashes you will need to resize them smaller. Going small then what is in the low res really messes with the clarity so I'm not uploading a table of that nature.****

Direct Bs2 for the Stern Playboy table.

This is a quick version of Stern's Playboy with a grill 1 quick animation using lamp flare images and some hard wired GI. I'm not a fan of Stern games and threw this together quickly as the other directb2s specified in the table download didn't seem to work. Seeing as though the table promised the possibility of seeing boobs in pinball however I thought I'd give it a go and therefore needed a backglass to accompany the table. If anyone who enjoys purist / original back glass lighting wants to modify the file to be authentic please feel free to download Herweh's excellent designer app and re-upload in dual mode. There is no need to contact me for permission to mod. Dozer.

Media pack contains: - 2 backglasses (factory and alternative) - 3 wheel images - Table image - Flier images (front and back) - Instruction cards
