Hi guys,
I've been willing to start restauring my RoboWar for a while now, but the problem is that my playfield is trashed.
And i just can't find a spare one on this side of the pond.
Any chance someone here has a decent one for sale?
And if not, where do you guys have your overlays made?

Cheers !

#134 6 years ago

Ok, still struggling with finding an overlay...

Anyone has a good scan of the playfield by any chance?

#137 6 years ago
Quoted from gismo31:

+1 . i need a scan from the bottom part between the flippers

Do you guys need to have an overlay made too?

#139 6 years ago
Quoted from dalispictures:

+ 1 more for scan between flippers! Thanks.

Ok, now, this is not making feel good about this...

I'll start investigating, though

#141 6 years ago
Quoted from gismo31:

Just to let you know, guys,
I'm on the edge !

Found a guy around here who, alledgedly, made himself an overlay, and thus has got a good quality scan.

I'm struggling to get in touch with him, but i'm on it !

I'll come back to you first thing when I get it !

#145 6 years ago

Victory !
I managed to get in touch with the guyafter a long investigation
The only problem is (I quote) that his file got corrupted.
The only one he has is his Illustrator one, 95% completed.
The 5% missing are a shading around the saucers.

I might have to ask someone to do that. A friend or one of you...

Currently waiting for the file...

#147 6 years ago

Hooray, guys !
I received the package !!!
I'll try to have a friend work on it this weekend.

'til then, send me an MP with your email address.
I'll send it back to you once it's all done.

Sorry to all those who sent a request for the time it's taking.
I've had a lot of work recently.
But my buddy's on it right now.

You should all get news from me shortly !

#178 5 years ago
Quoted from Chosen_S:

Awesome!
Also... do y’all see the $3600 robowar in the marketplace???!?!!!!!!?
I know this game is rare, but wow! What a asking price! I paid much less for my TX recently

Some people...
You should see the price some ask for a piece of junk, here in France...

I know my friend's about to finish the work on the playfield scan, but...
My question might be stupid...
What's the best best image format for a reprint?
I mean, which one would you like ?

Quoted from Chosen_S:

I need Robo-War sound samples, does anyone have them? If you do please pm me

I remember finding all the sounds and score on Youtube.
Can that work?

Quoted from Chosen_S:

I guess that makes some sense, in my opinion Robo-War is the better game between it and tx Sector , tx is a bit higher priced though

That's crazy !
I'm thinking about selling mine, in rough shape (haven't had the courage to have that overlay made), and people consider 800 € is way too high a price.
I guess it's one of those games that were mostly exported, so its high presence here makes it worth less...

So I might keep it after all...

#269 4 years ago
Quoted from Chosen_S:

Keep it man, you’ll regret selling it.

Yup !
That's what I have in mind, after all.
I was trying to save for a Williams Indiana Jones, but well... damn it ! It'll take longer, but I'll get it at some point.
And 'til then, I'll have that overlay made.

By the way, if someone has used the playfield scan I emailed to those who requested it, I'd love to have some feedback. Does it fit, etc...
