There is a Red Dwarf table for Future Pinball and I wish I could like it but it has that terrible Gottlieb double flipper thing so you can’t cradle the ball on the lower flipper without it slipping through the gap between the two flippers and it drains out

That design was awful in Black Hole and Haunted House and it’s still awful when someone decides to incorporate it into their original creation

The table is well designed but I really want to just go into the editor and delete the double flippers then extend the in lanes because that is such poor, poor design

Finally got this one posted, how to install Future Pinball on Linux. This was done using Elementary OS but it’ll work for any Ubuntu derivative.

There is not much left of the computer once it’s de-cased. Hooked up the blue led fans, ipac2 for the buttons and tested a table.

Computer installed. Testing the two screens and the sound. Whoo hoo!

Installed the DMD and decased my computer so it will fit on the pull out drawer. Also my contactors came in for the force feedback. Every time the ball hits a bumper, sling or you use a flipper, one of these bad boys will fire off.

I used car bondo for all the holes and a lot of sanding. Williams wide body lockdown bar installed. Painted the outside black and the inside white so I could see better inside the cab. I had a regular plunger which I cut off the tip and put a custom skull on the end. I also used car bondo for that and it worked out pretty solid.
