[QUOTE="Zombie Aladdin, post: 141049, member: 4242"] [b]Other Environments/Lighting?[/b] This is probably a strange request, as I'm sure most don't even give it much of a thought, but I noticed that [i]Pinball Arcade[/i] puts all of its tables in a rather dimly lit bar-like environment, with what seems to be a floor made of either hardwood or wooden planks and a single light source resembling a yellowish incandescent lamp with dark, old-looking walls. Would it be possible to have other environments, preferably brightly-lit ones? I understand a lot of pinball people like the mood pinball creates when played in a dark place, but I most often play pinball on location at bright places: Movie theater foyers, laundromats, bowling alleys, and hole-in-the-wall pizza restaurants, so that's what I'm accustomed to. Something with a checkerboard tile floor or maroon carpet, white walls, and fluorescent lighting, perhaps. This really first came to my attention when I played Data East's [i]Time Machine[/i] in a dimly lit arcade. The playfield is black and many inserts were out, so it was difficult to see where anything was or what was going on. Maybe a garage environment too, for how it must feel to have a personal-use pinball machine, which would have even dimmer lighting. Or a warehouse, with distant lighting of medium intensity. Or outside, where some pinball shows are set, with the brightest lighting. Or even something completely made up and fantastic, like on a rainbow or something. ([i]Black Knight[/i] wouldn't really work in such an environment though.) Has anyone else given any thought about this? Would it be too much work? Would anybody else prefer something else over the bar environment? [/QUOTE]
