There are a lot of versions of Tron out there, this is one of the best I've found:

You don't need all the pinup player stuff to play it, I removed pinup player (found it too distracting) from my pc altogether and it still works fine. This version also incorporates Dozer's lighting mods he did to Terryred's release which are awesome.

I don’t know the version

Way too many versions of this table, [MENTION=8741]Dedrok[/MENTION] from memory it's a modified version of Hanibals that has had to OT lighting fixed. I gave up on tested all the versions for the best as I don't particularly like the table. And I haven't explored the PUP route so didn't bother with those.

My naming convention doesn't help keep track of table versions, but I stuck with it for easy updating, I don't want to edit xml files every time there is an update. I really do wish authors would put their name and version number in the script files.

Best.Theme.Ever.

The one I linked isn't Hannibal's, I don't think much of Hannibal's version of this.

The PUP 1.5 version is the latest version of this game and I think the best. It contains many improvements to physics and lighting that are seperate from the PUP stuff which you can remove.

It's a shame that the latest Stranger Things version is PUP-only, cause it looks really good, but I don't want to install PUP again. I don't understand why people have gone nuts for this full screen video on the backglass stuff, it's just a gimmick and does nothing for gameplay except make you lose the ball quicker

I know this is one of your fav's, and with so many versions it is a fav of many, but I haven't had a good game of it yet. I like the movie (although I prefer the original), that said I have yet to look at the rules for the table, as it just didn't grab me.

I'm actually looking at PUP now for Stranger Things, the whole PUP thing to me is a bit of fluff, but that said I even find the new Sterns rely too much on Video content.

The original Tron was such a landmark film I agree! But in terms of a quality film, for me Tron Legacy easily surpasses the original. Even giving allowances for a 28 year gap between the films, have you given the original a re-watch lately.... it's not easy to watch with the repurposed skate/hockey helmets and dayglo pinstriped jumpsuits. Maybe it was enjoyable for the mystique of computers in 1982.

I'm not a fan of the video backglass in the recent Sterns either or the JJP machines that used it before them. I suppose manufacturers feel the need to innovate and move with the times, instead of concentrating on making a great, fun to play game with a decent ruleset ?

i know it exists in vp9 cause that's where i first played it, but yeah i just had a look and can't find it either.

does anyone still have a vp9 version they could upload/send to Bishop ? i've not kept any vp9's that were remade in vp10.

[Wob]

I re-watched the original before I watched Legacy, I didn't mind it, but you do need to lower your expectations, movie making back then was not as polished as it is these days. Go watch an early Mad Max

I did enjoy Legacy, but it didn't really break any new ground.

I just checked and I don't have a VP9 version sorry.

tron uprising was a good animation series but was unfortunately canceled after first season

you're right there was nothing new in Tron Legacy.... apart from the eye-poppingly gorgeous women, Flynn-as-Buddha, Daft Pank as the House Band, and Castor channeling Bowie's Ziggy Stardust

Ipac has arrived, just gotta wire it in so i can get back to playing instead of just posting sh1t : )

Bishop i've looked everywhere too and i can find dekstop vp9 Tron Legacy but not Full screen vp9. I've asked one of the hosts of another vpforum the dude who makes all the gameplay videos (he posted a vp9 full screen tron video in 2016) to see if he has one or one can be sent.
