YES.. Fish Tales, great next title ! Will match the 3-d topper. Was looking at my Fire! Yesterday thinking what a great 3-d that would make.
Quoted from mayuh:Wow, there's a lot of detail in the left fishing barn... And no one checked the physics. If the worm is still on the hook (and not yet eaten), why would the rod from the guy in the boat bend anyways...
The hook in the fish's mouth looks like it's caught on the mouth by teeth. Thus the boat yanking up, knocking guy out of boat and the strain on fishing pole. Love the thought of detail in the scales on Monster fish giving depth. We know how good the water and lake will look. The fire cloud work on AFM can evolve to the clouds and storm on upper left of FT.

Heinrich and Rick..How about....?
Fire!
Riverboat Gambler
Whirlwind
System 11's need some love.
I would pre-order Fish Tales Today if you let me. Been asking for it a year now.
I don't even have White Water and I'm tempted to go buy it.
Quoted from PPS:we will definately look at all of those titles,
Thanks Rick!
Rick, are you going to Cal extreme?
Bringing parts, have a booth?
Deliver parts orders or Translites?

Was hoping others would think the same and build demand for Fire and Black rose.
Also doesn't hurt to say it twice.
Quoted from AlexSMendes:Guess I didn't make myself clear before, but I took a look at your collection before my posting
Oh I see, glad I havn't updated my collection in awhile, you could go higher I guess.
I do Think Fire would be great with the flames in background and the horses in foreground.

Quoted from PPS:Just got notice that some Fish Tales have showed up in Chicago so we can show them at the show ....
rick
Working, no Chicago for me after trying to get there 3 year's in a row.
But, looking forward to ordering in next couple weeks when available on website.
Quoted from mayuh:. I mean yes, you have very decent foreground/background separation,
I understand, but couldn't you add depth in layers?
Quoted from mayuh:My best guess is that FT is in stock in the US around mid October.
That was a month ago...Great Guess. Fish Tales ordered!
Thanks to the mayuh and rick at PPS for making these.

Did they mail same one back? I have ordered 3 now and all where flawless. Couldn't be happier with product.
Fire! would be a great title. Mentioned before, love to see those white horses and flames with some depth!
Quoted from jathomp22:. I just put the old trim back on for now.
Is your glass 1/4 inch? I found them to be a little snug on that size. I had a spare 3/16 and it worked perfect.
TOM are not on website yet. PPS is the site to check.

Amazing work!
I can't wait to here the next title.
My Fish Tales never looked better. I love the depth, detail and color. Vivid is a good word for it.
Please tell me, there is an easter egg somewhere? By the boat dock? I keep looking can't find it??
Thanks again for all the hard work.

Quoted from rubberducks:Seems pretty fishy.
I dont get it with CPR and Mirco at full steam ahead?
Quoted from Zitt:I suspect... the rumors are true that Rick may no longer have the license for B/W product.
If so; I'm sad for you guys.
Best of luck
If that's the case. Then game on! These are made overseas anyways. Parts guys in Germany are doing it, decals in England., Mirco, CPR....etc

Quoted from Ballypinball:Sue who seriously, maybe pps have another supplier or doing them themselves
If I had the license still and you contacted the licensor I would kick you to the kerb as well.
Theres no good reason PPS, aka Rick is dragging his feet on this. PPS has been selling the 3D titles for awhile to some success.
Also, Rick has no staff to make these or design team. Would cost them more to outsource design to US based developer.
Rick is dragging his feet for some reason wayne and you know it.
Same can be said for many parts with years of promises to get stuff made.
ALL Black Rose ramps, canon shell, translight...long list on this title. I also could go thru every table and list the parts that need making.

Quoted from rubberducks:Wouldn't surprise me if he's trying to get someone to reverse engineer what you did and then sell it himself.
Not going to happen.
I hoping all of Ricks attention and time has been on MBr. Once realeased he gets back on track taking care of his vendors that have made parts and money for him for years.
Rick, its an email. Return them! These guys have worked hard and you've sold plenty of 3D translites on website.

Quoted from Pinstein:No Monster Bash coming?
So many great Titles....
Hate to see this die out.

Quoted from mayuh:You can’t imagine how much I hate it.
For the WH2O translite mentioned above: this motive just isn’t ideal for 3D converting thus you don’t see what you might expect. Go and find a RFM, FT or FH
Still hoping this all comes thru eventually.
Should we all email Rick?
1 week later
Rick (PPS) made an appearance in the white water foil topper thread this week. Came to some sort of an agreement with maker.
My thoughts on this if wondering the 3D translite was pushed out the door because of Mirco and CPR. Many playfields being made and tons of new Mirrored back glasses being made.
Just wondering if you guys were pushed out by a higher bidder?

Quoted from cletus:That actually makes a lot of sense. Anyone buying a 3D translite is effectively a lost sale for a translite to backglass conversion. I actually wouldn’t mind having options, though. Especially the option to purchase them all.
Agreed!!
This project needs to see the light of day again.
I have 4 3D translights, and 4 CPR Mirrored back glasses.
Why cant both companys make both titles?
Quoted from kapsreiter:just ask Mario why there will no more 3D translites
he did all the work and design
he will tell you the rick story
At this point you can share the story.
Whats the scoop?

Quoted from Drac:I just can't get the trim on my MM light box with the 3D translite!!! It's killing me! I can't even get the sides or top on correctly. I have cracked and snapped a few trim pieces now and even melted one with a heat gun trying to soften it to get it to fit.
I'm sure lots of people have installed these on WPC95 games. Does anyone have any suggestions? Please I'm begging now
Did you order trim package with the 3D translite when you got it at PPS?
I think they are a bigger trim. Not the 1/8th inch, but 3/16th inch.
Quoted from Drac:No I didn't order the trim with it.
So there's two sizes of plastic trim! Okay I'll see who sells it then.
Thanks very much!
There's actually 3 sizes of trims. Backglass that is glass can be 1/4 inch, you dont want that one.
2 years later
Quoted from Luckydogg420:PPS is there any chance of an AFM 3D back glass for Arcade1up machines? It’s the same image, just smaller.
The problem is the 3D Translites have been stagnant for awhile.
The team making these in Germany moved on and don't make these anymore.
