[ENGLISH] Pinball 2000 Network Tournament Software available
Dear friends of Pinball2000,
nearly 10 years after the famous pinball expo 1999 the pinball 2000 tournament software is back! It is available for free download within www.pinballz.net.
For the Pinball Expo 1999 three Williams Engineers developed within several weeks a tournament system that used an Ethernet card in the game to communicate with a game server and a Barcode Reader that is used to identify the individual players. This software was lost after the Expo – reappeared in 2005 and was used with modifications at the European Pinball Championship 2006 in Munich for a side tournament with cash prices. With some additional modifications this software is now ready to for download with a huge documentation and some starting images for quick success. The software works with both ‘Revenge from Mars’ and ‘Starwars Episode 1’. You need a network card and a Barcode reader for the full functionality – to get just an impression of score displays with picture a network card alone is fine.
Feel free to post any comments, questions or clues in this thread or send me an EMAIL.
Your pinball2000 friends
