[QUOTE="Brian Clark, post: 3103, member: 49"] Isn't this beating a dead horse? I understand that the engine has to be designed around the emulated MPU and that VP, FP, and Pinball Arcade all use different engines. Many of the physical aspects can't be emulated and are simulated. Future Pinball doesn't even use rom emulation. Farsight put a lot of work into the project, but it's impossible for me to know everything they worked on without asking them. Also, the fact that something is emulated at all means it's possible to emulate, even though it takes a lot of work to get it into another engine. I think I was too fast to make some assumptions, though. It's possible the ROM tech may have been referring to issues specific to Tee'd Off, especially since Tee'd Off does have a lot of fancy stuff on it. I also I heard that some Gottlieb boards are buggy and that may make them harder to work with, as well. I played a real Stargate. While it's an awesome game, it kept breaking down due to technical issues (I was able to get a full play in after it was fixed, but it looks like a bear to work on). [/QUOTE]
