Need Help: Bride of Pinbot.
Ive got this Pinball table stuck in my head. I played it regularly on WinUAE on my laptop, Im supposeed to have copied it all across to my main PC before selling the laptop, yet the OS4.1 HD file it was on wont get past the bootloader and ill be damned if I can find the disk file that had the table on.
Ok so thats two problems, HD file i can rebuild, but the Pinball holds special sentimental reasons for me and I would like to recover or at least find it on my disks. Anyone have a clue what it was released in or part of The Machine: Bride of Pinbot. Any help would be appreciated, this is what happens as age counts on, the disks become faded and the memory finds holes to live in. |

Pinball Dreams "Beat Box" table was "heavily inspired" by another Williams table, the classic Bride Of Pinbot.

Yep been to that post already and a few others like it. Dumb thing is I probably have the thing on disk I just cant for the life of me remember what the package was it came in.
Thanks for the info. I have to admit knowing Bride as well as I do, I cant see the resemblance between Beatbox and Bride. |

I’ve played a lot of both Bride and original Pinbot and never seen anything like either on the Amiga!
I guess the BeatBox ramps are similar in location but that’s about it. |

"The Machine" is an actual Williams Pinball machine from 1991, which I used to own. There definitely was no Amiga conversion of this.
There are pinball emulators for moderb systen that can use the original (Williams) ROMs to emulate existing pinball machines. Maybe one of the MAME ports released for OS4 supported Pinball emulation? Just search the web for emulating pinball machines on Windows, and for the actual game ROMs you need to play this particular one. Should be easier than trying to recreate the OS4 setup you used to play it. |
