Pinball Illusions Vikings table

StarEye · 18 March 2009, 00:27

Originally, I thought only the PS1 version of Pinball Illusions included the Vikings table. However, playing around with DOSBox, I found that it's in the MS-DOS version as well. I just wondered, is it possible to somehow convert this table to the Amiga version of the game? I'm not very knowledgable in this kind of thing, so please don't laugh at me if I'm asking the impossible.

It was a pretty crap table to begin with but I'd like to know about this too

Unless I am configuring something wrong, this game on PC has no interlace mode for multiball and it's unplayable.

I would like to third the request

I have the PC version, but playing it on the Amiga would be quite nice

Guess I will have a look again on the weekend then (if the Amiga version isn't finished then

). Haven't played the game for some years now, but can't remember that multiball is unplayable.

Multiball as I have it here works just by having the scroll stuck to the ball that remains lower. The screen doesn't get zoomed out so I can't se wht the fuck is going on, it's just guesswork.

Perhaps it's a DOSBOX issue?
My version also doesn't have LOTS of the musics, for example, when you enter Modes, there's no music (like if there was no supportfor multitune MODs),or the trcks beore starting t play... Arse...

Is there any reason it wasnt in the Amiga version in the first place ?
Maybe just wanted to release early or couldnt be bothered

or it was made/added by the pc porters.

I suspect music for pc version might have been on the cdrom version like ps1 version. CD32 version used music tracks.

EDIT: Tested pc versions. Floppy version doesnt have viking table, but music works fine. CDROM version has table, but broken music. Am trying to get an iso of original to test.

Would really REALLY! like to get hold of an iso of the "Pinball Gold Pack" mega rare

Hungry Horace · 18 March 2009, 22:19

I have the following but it's not an .ISO inside, only files / folders:

Code:

Pinball Gold Pack (1996)(21st Century Entertainment).zip     28.06MB

Nice find. Do you know if any of the tables in the archive have music issues without cdrom ? Regardles, would be cool to try if the file can be upped anywhere

No idea, I haven't actually tried it out as yet... Just downloaded it as I saw you were looking for it

Of course. I've uploaded it to 2 places just in case you have trouble with one link:

... Pinball Gold Pack (1996)(21st Century Entertainment).zip @ YouSendIt
... Pinball Gold Pack (1996)(21st Century Entertainment).zip @ FileFactory

Mad-Matt · 22 March 2009, 17:05

I had a floppy disk version of Pinball Illusions for the Amiga that included the Vikings table, which was always a favourite of mine. I'm not sure whether this was a re-released 'Deluxe' or 'special edition' version, but it definitely included the Vikings table.

Unfortunately, I sold my A1200 with all the accessories/software/games on eBay last year. I now run a virtual Amiga through WinUAE, but I am unable to find the version of Pinball Illusions that included Vikings table anywhere on the net. I would be grateful if anyone could point me to a copy.

Do you remember on how many disks was this version?

Wut, wut, wut? For real?!?

Never knew such a version exists, the Vikings table was always mine and my gaming buddy's favorite one the PSX (True Pinball) as we were big Thorgal fans back then

Oh and, hello and welcome to EAB, Napalm-ned!

I remember it having four disks – but the versions without the Vikings table also has four disks (at least the versions I came across on the net) – so I could be wrong.

Thanks for the link, but this version doesn't include the Vikings table. The fourth disk only contains a HD installer.

I don't like Pinball Illusions, only table with Vikings was good for me, so I can not understand their move.

I definitely used to own a floppy version on the Amiga that included the Vikings table (never had a PC back then). This was the only table I used to play in Illusions. I never owned the CD version.
