For one thing, this insane looking prerendering technology is probably completely useless for the polygonal graphics TPA uses, and who knows what that means for the physics engine as well - maybe they work differently due to the graphic structure of the tables?I would KILL for Whirlwind or TAF rendered inside the Pro Pinball engine, but I doubt that would happen like that. But hey, who knows. What specifically do you guys think such a collaboration/merger would look like?...one thing that would be really cool: Having the new Lawlor table both on PP and TPA, but I think that would cause some heated arguments over what version looks and plays better.I wonder how things would  turn out if instead Farsight got to collaborate with Pat Lawlor and Silverball made a lower-goal Kickstarter for PP. I have no idea how hard it is to get a veteran pinball designer working with you, but Silverball must be doing something right, I mean, as far as I see it this whole thing jut came completely out of the blue.I think it's wait and see. To me, Lawlor / Youssi + the new prerendered black magic + the four classic tables people seem to be very nostalgic for + that physics engine everybody gushes about is a very powerful combo, I'd love if they can make it on their own. Maybe Farsight should contact one of the Ritchie brothers or JPop. I mean, why not! Let's party like it's 1992! And, damnit, somebody better bring Chris Granner too.</blockquote>
