I never noticed that about 10 Stars. You’re right.

I just found another odd and recent bug on Steam for Mac: El Dorado's upper flippers no longer function. I tried the table on Steam for Windows and it works fine.

That wiki is interesting. There are a few Zaccaria tables that haven't been digitized yet. Their first, Tropical, is curious. http://www.ipdb.org/showpic.pl?id=5511&picno=43497 Another, Ten Stars, was a copy of Captain Fantastic (which I'm surprised TPA hasn't recreated)...

I find it really ironic that TPA works beautifully when I run it emulated through Windows on my Mac -- but the native Mac and Mac Steam versions don't work nearly as well. Evidently (from past posts) Farsight has been having trouble keeping Mac coders on board. With the horsepower the new Macs...

I'm not holding my breath, but I'll wait a bit longer. The Mac version has been a sad neglected version for years now. I doubt the graphics will get an overhaul to match the Windows version but hopefully it'll at least be playable, without the notorious slowdowns. I've pretty much given up...

Wow! What a change! The new menu system is going to take me some getting used to. I previously had the tables sorted by date. But now they're sorted by ... system? There's SS, EM, Remake, Retro and Award. I love the new Retro tables (Shooting the Rapids and Farfalla). The collection of...

That's interesting. I find that remarkably it still works in Windows 10. That game is nearly a quarter-century old now. The graphics are certainly not hi-res, but I still enjoy playing it. And heck, for a game that old I'm amazed at what they were able to accomplish. The physics in it still...

Wow. That's a good price. I already have it for Mac and iOS, but for that price on Steam I'll go for it.

That's remained one of my all-time favorite digital pinball tables. As far as my worst experience, it's probably been some of the amusement park arcades I've been in where they have long-neglected EM machines that appear to work but wind up with dead bumpers or flippers. The greatest offender...

Great. Thanks FlippyFloppy. I just noticed the same thing. FWIW, I didn't notice it on any other EM tables; just Eight Ball.

The upper flippers in El Dorado are dead. I wish Farsight would update their menu system for Mac. It's been broken for about a year.

But wait -- there's even more retro! Magic Pixel just added retro versions of Devil Riders and Pinball Champ. The only resemblance the retro tables have to the originals is a little artwork. Other than that, they're really challenging old-school play fields. I'm really enjoying them.

I finally unlocked this table, probably my favorite of the Age of Pinballs collection. I currently suck at it, but I just need to spend more time with the table. I'm really happy to be playing it again. And BTW, I do like the redux of Farfalla. I also really like the new "retro" version of...

I agree. Age of Pinballs has some of my favorite table designs ever. I wonder if Magic Pixel will put effort into revamping that app, or whether they'll continue to release their original tables as part of the Steam package.

I’m happy to report that the iOS version of Zaccaria is working great. I bought the gold pack. The rules on many tables seem different from their Steam counterparts. It’s also interesting that clicking on the game’s Forum button takes you to Pinball Arcade Fans!

Thanks, Snorzel. I filed a bug report on Steam. I'm finding a few other anomalies as well and will update there as I go along.

Thanks. I'll look into that.

I found another bug, similar to the one in Locomotion. In Earth Wind and Fire, I was on ball 6 and got an extra ball, which stopped the timer at 2.2 seconds. I knocked over both sets of drop targets twice (which lit the outlanes) and then lost the ball down the right outlane. That triggered...

Well, that's exciting! I'll have to check it out. EDIT: I just downloaded it. It plays fantastic (and looks fantastic)! Thank you, Magic Pixel! EDIT 2: There's a bug; after a few consecutive tables (seems to be a random amount, but so far not more than three), clicking on the next table...

Well, I spoke too soon. With the latest update, the blank score glitch is back. I play two tables in a row, and the next table will have a blank score display. If I quit and restart Zaccaria, I can play two more tables in a row until the display disappears again. EDIT: I think I may have...
