The linked ADFs are bad: Nightmare table doesn't work correctly (most functions are deactivated after a short while).

These work:

Disk 1
Disk 2

There are certainly bad adfs out there. The Nightmare issue that John mentioned, and also on Ignition if you collect a planet after Pluto the game crashes. I've had bugged adf's for years and never replaced them because they had all my scores on them, but for this comp I will definitely be trying to find the best version.

Can we not just upload one picture - the scores from all boards found on the main menu?
I have been snapping pics after each of my highscores just incase the game glitched or didn't save the scores - pressing Escape to exit the table should save scores to disk 2 (according to manual on Lemon Amiga).


BTW, you guys have huge scores. My best on Ignition thus far is 4 million and haven't tried the others yet.

I load each table up one time and then make a savestate. I load the savestate of whichever table I want to play and save over it if I beat my best score. So the score board on the main menu wouldn't work for me.

I don't know the reason for my score on the table Nightmare,it was not a spectacular play,surely there is some important reward doing something.
Playing in WinUAE(+PAL filter) this time,it's a bit uncomfortable playing this game with keyboard from real Amiga on my setup.

As I am using WinUAE on my laptop, I have configured WinUAE so that I can use the mouse left/right keys as left/right flippers. Atleast I can use my mouse to my hearts content and if I brake it it is easily replaceable, unlike laptop keyboards and/or keys.

Managed to up my score for Ignition to 5 million. I think I will aim to beat the top score for each table, then work from there.

Just a quick reminder to post the total scores yourselves please
If you wish to upload a pic of the highscores from the menu feel free - it might save the thread getting cluttered too much.

Will do, once I have decent score on each table

BTW, original ADF's are bad for Steel Wheel too. Just had freaky physics... ball move slow -> ball move super fast despite nothing hitting it!!
I guess Fairlight must have messed up the disks accidentally?

Just about to download the ADF's that john4p found.

Thanks guys but I suspect with John about and some of the decent pinball players on the forums the winning score will be over 500,000,000. I still don't think I will win this round.

If the scores start rolling in i think the billion mark will be required to challenge for the top spot! John4p has a high in Beatbox of over 800,000,000
