Taxi and Fish Tales

[Sun Vulcan]

Look the hidden files on iOS:

I see enough evidence of Taxi, but I'm not seeing Fish Tales. I hope they do FT though - it's an awesome table!

 

[SpiffyRob]

Wow, great find.

TTales_Enums.csv could just as easily be Tales From the Crypt, no? Licensed, sure, but an older one. Is there anything within that file that's a clearer indication?

I'm psyched either way!

 

[Richard B]

According to the ipdb, there are only three tables with "tales" in the title:

TOTAN
Tales from the Crypt
Fish Tales

Of course, that Tales file could simply be a TOTAN update also.

I think the reference for Taxi was there since a few releases. You can also see a reference to Harley Davison, when you open the file setup.txt in the App-Folder.

I doubt that it is TOTAN due to the fact that if you look at some of the other files you will see that table is labeled as TOTAN.

I poked around the file, and unfortunately it appears to be for TOTAN. Here's what makes me think that:

,[Offset], target3, 107,
,[Offset], metal-parts01, 108,
,[Offset], Metal_Trim2, 109,
,[Offset], Tales_Lamp_Dif, 110,
,[Offset], Genie_Diffuse, 111,

Lamp and Genie mentioned.

Looking further it has:

,[Offset], totan_player1start, 0,
,[Offset], totan_reset, 1,

and

RSID_TABLE_11_MECH_FIREBALL_CATCH, 6603,,,
RSID_TABLE_11_MECH_FIREBALL_RAIL, 6604,,,
RSID_TABLE_11_MECH_LOCK_MAGNET, 6605,,,
RSID_TABLE_11_MECH_CAGE, 6606,,,
RSID_TABLE_11_MECH_SKILLHOLE1, 6607,,,
RSID_TABLE_11_MECH_SKILLHOLE2, 6608,,,
RSID_TABLE_11_MECH_SKILLHOLE3, 6609,,,
RSID_TABLE_11_MECH_HAREMSNEAK, 6610,,,

I see the word Flipper showing up way too many times. It could be there will be a pinball game released about a Dolphin.

 

[SpiffyRob]

Boo! Hiss!

Ah well. Was nice to dream while it lasted. Guess I'll have to keep leaning on VP for Fish Tales for the time being.

While I think White Water and Fish Tales would make the most appropriate 2-pack thematically, the table design of Taxi and Fish Tales, with the twin center ramps, would mean they would compliment each other nicely.

 

[Rudy Yagov]

Taxi and Fish Tales were both designed by Mark Ritchie, so it would make sense for them to share some elements.

 

[Freelance]

Nuts!!! Was sooo hoping for Fish Tales!

 

[Stormchild]

From what I've read, it looks like the next pair will be Taxi & Harley Davidson (3rd Edition).

 

[jrolson]

Yup Taxi and Harley Davidson would make a great pair... Both being vehicle themes of course...

 

[Matt McIrvin]

Has Farsight ever mentioned Harley-Davidson as a possibility? All I've seen are wishful statements from fans.

 

[ridcully]

As far as i know, the references to Taxi and Harley Davidson where existing before the Monster Bash/Gorgar-Update came out. So i don't think, the references are an indicator, that we will see those tables next...

 

[Sean DonCarlos]

Harley Davidson came from the making-of video, during the part where they're discussing the art and modeling process. There are 3D models of the motorcycles from the Harley Davidson table shown during the texturing step.

True, though it has yet to be officially announced.

 

[Stormchild]

They're definitely doing Harley-Davidson. But it turns out the next pack is Creature from the Black Lagoon + Black Knight.

In the same video, you can also see they've got the real table (looks like the 3rd edition) in the studio.

Where did this come from? I highly doubt anyone would say anything about Harley Davidson if it wasn't for that making of video. Farsight has the table on site too. No wishful statements at all.
