Zaccaria Pinball - Circus (1977) Bugs & Feedback

[smbhax]

The "clean" glass effect is subtle on most tables, not obscuring the view of the table. On Circus, though, the backglass logo reflects very strongly, making it hard to see the upper part of the table:

The brighter logo does cast a solid reflection. Again, the more obvious problem here seems to be that the reflected image itself is reversed, which also might be making it appear even more obtrusive.

i love this table.

not sure if this is a bug, is it weird that after you collect "circus" and the extra ball special that the circus letter targets don't relight on the same ball?

Yes, it is a bug, thanks!

The art on the outside left of the table box is reveresed.

According to pictures I've seen, that's how it is supposed to be.

why would you want the word circus to be spelled in reverse on the side of the machine?

Because that's the way it was designed? Otherwise I wouldn't.

Just noticed that the left spinner will ocasionally score at the beginning of a game but while I'm not even done with the first ball it makes the appropriate sound when going through it but it doesn't score either 10 or 100 when lit. Has anyone else noticed this?

Hi Zsolt i found two pictures of the Circus table where the slingshot lightning is always lit while this is not the case on the ASK sim.

It would be great to see this one in action.

Thanks, it will be fixed by the next update.

Thanks, it will be fixed by the next update.

The art on the left side of this cabinet is supposed to be reversed! Look at pictures of the machine.

Moon Flight has similarly mirrored cabinet and backbox art but no lettering. Wonder if we'll get the black or white version?

Supersonic, Universe, Wood's Queen also. Not sure which others. Circus might have been the first one with lettering.

Yes Zsolt please don't fix the lettering, as 74-89 stated it is supposed to be reversed, apparently when they tried to do the lettering the correct way on the left side of the cabinet it would not fit properly so they had to reverse it! So for authenticity, please leave as is

Zsolt. Were you able to recreate the left spinner typically not scoring when you go through it. Perhaps it's only when it's supposed to be 100pts? I definitely had it happen on many games. Thanks. R

I guess 100 points will be good. Thanks, fixed in the next update.

I was missing the right flipper until I rebooted the app!

Hi Zsolt i found pics of a real Circus table where it looks like theres permanent lightning on the slings while this is not the case on the ASK sim
