Now, can Roy or anyone else getting to test this wonder please comment on how it plays, pretty please

Great work, Farsight

I AM HYPE

Looks absolutely awesome.

Judging by the FB comments so far it seems like it will be a huge hit. Knew it would be.

Do you think we'll see this at the launch of the PC version?, looks like they have it up and running already!??

I was going to seel my Pinball Cab....

But i guess ill keep it now, maybe i should swap out the DMD LCD monitor, for a proper PC DMD display and get an analog plunger kit!

Looks incredible! Can't wait to get more detailed plans on its release from Farsight. Hope they plan for ledwiz/force feedback support.

How do you like the light bar on top of the cabinet? I'm just starting the process of building one (using an old Space Invaders cabinet) and that's where I was thinking of putting a light bar rather than under the playfield like most people do.

Yeah its good, adds to the whole experience

I got the d&d working with pin DMD. Also hooked up plunger kit and Shake nudge. Although ST:TNG doesn't really show off the plunger, it should work on other tables. This won't be ready for PC launch, I had to do some hacks to get one table working, since I didn't have much time to get it working. It was also a bit hard to setup without the cabinet here to test how it looked. That'll be changing really soon.

The guys at virtual pin and pinDMD were really helpful in getting this up so quickly.

By the way, it looks like the PS4 version on the cabinet. I noticed the cannons are white instead of pink.

Yep, can definitely tell. DirectX 11?

I This won't be ready for PC launch

Hello Mr. Reitmeyer,

can you say something about the PC release? First half of October is over, will it come this month for sure?

Thanks in advance.

My friend just checked out your new cabinet at the expo. Facetimed me form there. Looks real nice. Hoping to get the cabinet stuff released by Christmas. Hope that happens.

Talk of this being a separate purchase from the PC. If so, count me out of the PC, I only want cabinet. PC was just to get cabinet, if it doesn't support cabinets than there is no need for PC for me.

Looks really great Mike! Glad that you were able to find the time to get a table up and running in time for the expo. Would it be easy for you guys to support using a third screen as a DMD instead of a real DMD? Also any thoughts (even if it might be way down the road) about having configurable support for force feedback and toys (contacts, LEDs, knocker, shaker motor, etc.)?

Number one thing is that this is very early. They literally just got the cab and haven't even had it back to the office yet. Menus are still in landscape and all that. The camera seems too far forward - you can see a bit of the top of the flippers. I'm sure they'll get it straightened out. The guy I talked to said it was very rough - but he seemed excited. He did mention something about how they weren't sure if it would be a separate game for cabinet mode yet.

I can say that the real DMD looked awesome!

Still DX9, just did some lighting tweeks.

Plan is this month, hopefully with the release of the next table pack.

Not sure what all would be involved. Not ruling out the possibility of adding support of those.

Not having it in the office made it hard to "guess" what it would look like.

Mike, you did a fantastic job for being halfway across the country and on such short notice. It looks very impressive.
