Overview, installation, and demonstration of the retro PC keyboard add-on, the Wizzard by Thrustmaster. And playing Doom 2 with it, cuz that's dumb txcforever: Quick question if anyone knows: Did Crystal Caliburn only one had table on the CD? I remember owning it from a CD pack that came bundled with my PC back in 1996 and I remember it advertising more tables. I thought that maybe I had a shareware version, but looking for it now, it seems like indeed they only had one table on the disk back then.
Is this correct or is there a collection of tables from the same developer?

RE: the two stages of click, many pinball machines have what are called -staged flippers-, where you can push the button half way down to trigger the bottom flippers, and all the the way to trigger the top flippers. This lets you cradle balls on the bottom flippers while going crazy on the upper playfield during multiball. Crazy they included that!

The main reason Balls of Steel didn't work with this controller is because the game uses launcher, which is able to launch any 4 tables. Every table in this game has a file with ddp extension, which is kinda handled as a program on its own when started with the launcher, so you could map the binding for the ddp file instead of the launcher.

1: 55 Royal Flush was one of my all-time favorite pinball sims! It was just the one game, but it was a faithful simulation of an old real-life Gottlieb table from the 1970s. The Mac version had been commissioned and then canceled by Broderbund, and the developers released it as shareware. I played the heck out of that thing at the time.

I got so nostalgic watching LGRs videos that I changed my laptop's theme to Classic and turned down the resolution so it looks ridiculously retro (well not truly retro but I grew up with Windows 98 and XP computers so it looks like childhood to me.

I took some real inspiration from this video and used some Wii remotes, a keyboard and a piece of software called Glovepie to play Epic Pinball. It didn't work half the time but it was still pretty cool.
I'm a sucker for gimmicky control schemes.

The fact that I expect with gleeful anticipation the -Doom Test- as an LGR staple speaks to how much and often I peruse these videos. It literally never gets old.
Also sat back like. Thrustmaster innuendo in 5. 4.

SPACE CADET PINBALL! I never played that particular version but there was a version of Space Cadet that came bundled with Windows XP (I think) and it looks very similar. Nostalgiaaaaaaa.

Oh man, so the pinball game from windows xp is even older than I thought. Awesome lol.
I still got the files kicking around and it works on windows 10.

At the beggining looks like you are simulating an old lady with a walker. So thats how doomguy would walk if he didnt have his rocket powered wheelchair huh?
