I have pay a compliment to you guys for the excellent programming on those pinball games - jävligt vasst! Especially Fantasies - I could run that game smoothly on my 286, at full speed, with sound effects and music mixed to my pc speaker (no sound card)!

I still remember the day in 1995 when I got my first PC. It came with a bunch of games, Pinball Illusions being one. I just kinda launched it and whoosh - six hours gone. k:

Hey, that almost sounded like me saying that! :w00t: Pinpall illusions was one of my first games too, and it is such a nostalgy trip.

I have a (cracked/pirated/whatever) copy of the cd-version with 4 tables where the music actually works in all of them, so it must be possible. I just offered my copy to the abandonia crew, maybe they're interested in posting it here.

Just hope they do...

It was one of my first computergames I played on my own PC...

Please register and send me a PM, so I can provide you with the login info you can use to upload the archive to our FTP.

I have an itching for some pinball action and I played Fantasies to death on my CD32 with all my college buddies. I'm having trouble playing this on my laptop though...it loads fine in DOSBox and I can get to a table but some keys don't work such as my right shift button and (unfortunately) the down arrow so all I can do is flip my flippers and tilt the hell out of the table but not play.

The funny thing is I just played Pro Pinball: Timeshock on the laptop and I had the same problem with the right shift key though it works fine on my desktop. Any ideas why this would be?

I loved being able to play the game with one of the the best original pirate/sailing songs - I hummed it to myself from time to time .
I thought it was from The Lost Vikings 2 and was disappointed that I couldn't find it amongst its songs, but when I saw the screenshot for PI, I knew this game was The One.

Unfortunately, the rest of the game didn't live up to my expectations (especially when compared to Pinball Fantasies, which I'm playing at the moment, too).

My lamest hits get quadruple combos after triple combos, get me into casinos, score jackpots and make me a 80 times over millionaire within 5 minutes of first starting the game...
... while the ball slides down the sidelines after a-move/hit-most-unlikely-to-get-the-ball-down-the-sideline. If it were for my skill, or rather a lack of it, all would be well, but it isn't . It goes down the sides, not down the center, and it goes there after slowly going over the bumper... slowly going a bit down the first "safe" side... slowly going a bit down the second "safe" side... going out of it and to the unsafe one :laugh: .

Tough luck for me, no ?

this will open the option dialogue, where you can change the resolution or number of balls

This worked wonders !

My other favourite is the Viking one, but because of the 3 ball limit that's only 444 million.

I got over 3 billion in Babewatch, now top that...

Just found this game of my childhood. Trying to run it under dosbox, but whatever I do, it onl displays 1/4 of the game (menu works fine, just the game is broken).

I already tried most of the things listed here (setup and changing resolution) and also tried changing machine in dosbox settings. No change. Any ideas how to fix this?
