TL;DR

Jim Jackson releases comprehensive Western-themed PuP Pack for Cactus Canyon with 375+ videos, 3-4 month development timeline.

Summary

Jim Jackson and Manu showcase a comprehensive PuP Pack for Cactus Canyon (Bally 1998) featuring Western-themed video overlays, animations, and sound design. The pack draws inspiration from 1960s-70s spaghetti Westerns, includes 375+ video clips totaling 600MB, and required 3-4 months of development. Jim discusses the technical challenges of syncing videos to DMD displays, integrating character animations, and the extensive source material sourcing from films like The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and Fistful of Dollars.

Key Claims

  • The Cactus Canyon PuP Pack contains over 375 videos totaling 600+ megabytes

    high confidence · Jim Jackson states: 'There's 600 megabytes of stuff in this. There's over 375 videos.'

  • This PuP Pack took 3-4 months to develop, longer than the Addams Family PuP Pack

    high confidence · Jim Jackson: 'This took since Winchester Mystery House to get it this far. Yeah, three months, three, four months. This is the longest I've ever taken on a pup pack. This one took longer than Adam's family.'

  • The PuP Pack features 14 different gunfight animations, with 7 variations timed to each length

    high confidence · Jim Jackson: 'There's 14 to be exact. 14 gunfights... there's two animations for Gunfight. One's slightly shorter than the other, so I put seven on each.'

  • All three versions (full DMD, two-screen, three-screen) support PuP shapes for the first time

    high confidence · Jim Jackson: 'Now, for the first time ever, all versions have pup shapes. The full DMD version, the two-screen version, and the three-screen.'

  • The inspiration for the PuP Pack came from I Dig Stuff's Magnificent Westerns alt sound for Cactus Canyon

    high confidence · Jim Jackson: 'I was scrolling through my playlist, and I heard I Dig Stuff's alt sound on the, what's it called, Magnificent Western's alt sound. And that's what inspired the whole Pup Pack.'

Notable Quotes

  • “If he hadn't made that alt sound, we wouldn't have this Pup Pack today. So a big shout out to I Dig Stuff.”

    Jim Jackson@ 4:51 — Directly credits the inspiration source for the entire PuP Pack project

  • “There's 600 megabytes of stuff in this. There's over 375 videos. I mean, 600 megabytes. If you include the underlay videos and the pup shape videos, there's over 375.”

    Jim Jackson@ 22:45 — Emphasizes the massive scope and technical complexity of the project

  • “That took a long time. I just have to record it and then sync it later in the editing. Spice Pup Pack took three months. It's so much timing to the DMD.”

    Jim Jackson@ 17:20 — Explains the technical challenge of synchronizing video clips to DMD display timing

  • “First thing you do when you make a pup pack is buy your wife flowers, because she's not going to see you for three months.”

I swear I... I swear I changed that to the other one. Hi! We got guests. We got company. We got classical audios. Jim Jackson, ladies and gentlemen. Hey, everybody. Can you believe I'm here? You know, I usually look behind the scenes, man. I'm not usually in front of the camera. This is strange. That's all right. Glad to be here, though. Yeah, I'm glad to have you. I'm really glad to have you because we need to talk about this.
0:56
Yeah, I have to say I feel a little exposed right now. Do you really? Are you naked? I can see you. You can see waist down, though.
1:07
Neither can you. Okay. Hey. What's up, fiends? What's up, Ron? Graze. DJ Frey. DJ Frey Leo. Thank you, First Time Channel. Welcome to the Mystery Pinball Theater. My name is Manu.
1:27
That is Classic Radios. the creator of Hawkeyes is here. Joe Picasso. Hey, Joe. Joey played a huge part in this pup pack, of course.
1:44
Yeah, I want you to shout out to all the people who helped with this pup pack. Let's get Jim, let's let the sounds happen first.

1:58
Nail Buster! yeah i'm a noob at this i don't know what's going on i'm surprised you guys even let me in here you've seen this part before right where it's 20 minutes of like just us listening to sound clips oh yeah ladies and gentlemen i gotta say look at that handsome guy over there boom close the door ladies and i'm like i gotta say hey I know these guys what's up Joey so I was lucky enough to Jim can I call you Jim or should I call you yeah Jim definitely Jim of course man that intro video was amazing but hold check thank you here let's move to this scene right here um thank you jim first of all for um letting me get a get a look at this i know so you sent me a little while ago like you were you said you were 80 done 80 yeah it's probably in 1997 now i'm gonna put a number on it oh is this not is this not 100 yet it well it could be 100 but I always add, you know, artists are never finished, right? I know. That's what I was going to say. You need someone to walk in and take the paintbrush and say, we're done. Exactly. My wife tries, my wife tries all the time. Yeah. Right. But she brings in like a frying pan or something.
3:37
So Jim, I want you to, I want you to know, like everybody who hits me up and you know, if you hit me up on discord, if you hit me up on Facebook or whatever, I read all of it. and I was afraid that I think there was like maybe four days that went by or something like that and I don't think I responded to you but I had because I was doing it I was doing a bunch of stuff with the pin credibles and the whole score bit thing on guardians of policy so that was like a whirlwind of stuff and then when the dust settled I went wait Jim sent me a pup pack to try and I fired this shit up and I was like oh my god this is a freaking love letter to classic westerns this is like everything you did in here I looked and I went every composition on here and every animation was meticulously like done what is your inspiration to do this kind of stuff were you a big western fan No, not a Western fan. I was just looking for a Puck Pack to do, and I was scrolling through my playlist, and I heard I Dig Stuff's alt sound on the, what's it called, Magnificent Western's alt sound. And that's what inspired the whole Puck Pack. If he hadn't made that alt sound, we wouldn't have this Puck Pack today. So a big shout out to I Dig Stuff. wow yeah it's amazing yeah so so so where did you where is the source material for this where what i mean what movies can you name some movies that are in this oh i can name a lot of movies there's no i but i uh source from 100 different westerns a lot of i tried to keep it to the 60s and 70s spaghetti westerns i didn't want to go too modern i wanted to keep it you know the old stuff the old cool stuff so the good bad and the ugly is in there anything with john wayne or clint Eastwood. Oh my god. You know, the Fistful of Dollars? Yeah. Yeah, Fistful of Dollars series, you know, that whole thing, Floresmore, all that. And then I did the knockoffs, like, a few dollars less. You know, three lead dollars. In the 60s, I just knocked off all the westerns, right? Right, right. But the challenge with this pup pack is that all you do is shoot people. It's just, you know, a target pops up, you shoot it. So how many clips can you have that do the same thing, right?
5:55
Oh, a lot. So I tried to keep it interesting. So that's why I had to do animations too, and I asked Joey to get me some assets so we could have some good artwork and then do a lot of cool visuals. Because the quality is not that great either on some of these old westerns. It's 480p.
6:14
But I hear it turned out pretty good. Who worked on this intro? Oh, I did the intro. Joey did the characters. He put you guys all in cowboy outfits. I didn't even realize I shot myself in the game. Oh, yeah. So I flipped this a little bit a couple nights ago, and as I was going through it, total awesomeness. Yes, you got that right, Steve. I'm flipping through this, and I'm playing, and I notice, I go, wait, did I just shoot Nailbuster?
6:49
Because I'm focused, right? The player is heads down. I'm 100% behind the idea that Jersey Jack and Stern and all this the fancy stuff going on the screen is 100% for other people watching and maybe 60% for the player because your head's down all the time as soon as you take your eye off the ball you're going to lose it you're kind of screwed right So when I'm playing and I go, okay, shoot the bad guy. I go, boom, I hit a bad guy. I look up and I go, wait, that looked like Nail Buster. Did I just kill Nail Buster? In fact, I hope all these guys are in chat tonight because I have to get their permission to use their images before I release it publicly. So we've got Terry in there. We've got Hawkeyes, John. We've got – well, Joey's in there. I'm in there. And who's the fifth one? I don't know. Some dude does a stream. Oh, you. maybe yeah all right there you go let's try this puppy out feel free to shoot me virtually oh rick's in there too oh before you start try to give it a coin with or uh or try to start without giving it a coin have you done that i saw that here's what i'll do i'll now i put my games on free play as you can see but but yeah here i will turn i suggest that you kids if you don't want to bother with um coining up that you just turn your games to free play but uh jim did some cool stuff here here let's go back to uh adjustments and go to pricing and go to uh we're gonna put it on we're gonna put it on credits today free play now hey let me turn the sound up and you kids in chat let me know if this is too loud I'm going to back out I mean who doesn't I just want to shoot Manu Hi fiends I love you Let me turn the high power off Before the voltage kills me Jim My insane 12 volts Alright ready Just to be clear on these intros I just use pets and I modify them. Of course, I don't make these from scratch. I know Harlan can do that. I can't do that. Nah. We need to clear the... We need to clear the audience.
9:26
Oh, we need to clear the credits, too. Clear coins? Can I do that? Okay. Joey says, Wait, wait, wait, hold up. Why?
9:40
What you got for me, Joey? Joey was also, clear credit, Joey was also a little instrumental in getting me to throw this one on. Oh yeah, that is a R2D2. It's a 3D printed R2D2. My son did that. It took four months. You print it on a printer this big. Your game room looks awesome, Dave. And it talks, yeah. Alright, let's try and start it.
10:10
cool all right that's all the details you know it is all of the details you got a ton of details in here bro is the sound okay was that loud too loud let me do it again you guys if the sound's okay say pancake no it's good okay sounds sounds good here all right hey what's up ken swift what in tarnation is going on here so jim's got a job right now as we go through this jim's job is going to be to like name movies that show up i'm going to try and go through the game i don't know if i'll be able to do that as fast as possible there's gonna be a lot of clips showing up but jim's gonna be like oh yeah that's good bad yeli oh yeah that's this how come that happened twice ken swift somehow you got your sound twice you say you said say pancake oh that's true i did say say pancake all right here we go oh yeah i guess we forgot to put a quarter in does anybody have a quarter i need a quarter now jim i told you i got to high noon twice i needed to see all the neat stuff that you did yeah i am not probably not going to do that on stream now because holy smokes okay there you go so now we have pup shapes working see that nice those videos that are playing over the overlay. Yeah. And now, for the first time ever, all versions have pup shapes. The full DMD version, the two-screen version, and the three-screen. I was never able to do that before. Oh, nice. Yeah. Let's shoot. What's up, Democrats? Let's shoot for some, uh... Let's shoot for some bad guys. Quick draw!
12:29
Who did we just kill? Quick draw. That was too fast. I killed him too quick. So if you are familiar with Attack from Mars and Medieval Madness and Stranger Things, you might be a little familiar with this game too. It's kind of the same deal. You shoot all the shots three times.
12:55
And you start like... This is called Stampede in here. it would be what's called total annihilation in medieval attack on mars I'm killing them too fast yeah Jim I'm killing them too fast I need them to live for a little while it also works after gun fight so you're ok oh yeah if you hold status you'll get a couple random videos that play that is so cool I never do that Oh, shoot. I never knew that, bro. Details.
13:36
Oh, my God. Who makes a pup pack for the status screen? No one. Well, Jim does. Okay. Oh, boy. All right. What I usually do is I usually try and get... I go for Stampede, but we have a bounty ready, so let's get a bounty.
13:58
I'm John Wayne. because the call outs are John Wayne all those I tried to use the same John Wayne video the Duke love the Duke you know Jim I got a suggestion for you but you're going to hate it what when well I didn't see what you have in here for tilt I didn't do a tilt that's part of the last 3% good okay so can you have and my friends in chat are going to agree with me. Can you have for tilt, can you have the Rappin' Duke?
14:38
Have you ever heard of the Rappin Duke No what is it It John Wayne right John Wayne rapping BP Fiends tell them what Rapping Duke is Yeah I knew Fiends was gonna be like yes
14:52
Rapping Duke. You should look it up on YouTube. Someone's gonna have to send me a link, yeah. Yeah. It's horrible. It's, it's...
15:01
Yeah, that's a tilt! That's a tilt! Oh, is this Polly? Let me see if I can rescue Polly. okay I already wasted a bunch of time so I'm trying to rescue Polly Attention! Incoming raid to the pinball theater. Four... Three... I didn't do a lot with the Polly one. There's a few videos but I didn't really understand the mode. Fliptronic, what's up? Seems like you pause the train and then nothing happens. You pause the train. So you can go up the middle to pause the train so you can try and rescue Polly. I think she's going to die right now because I got three more shots to make. I don't think you want to save her. Yeah, there's a video for that.
15:47
When she dies? Yep. Yeah, she died. Okay. Okay, we got to do better. Got to do better. There's Ball Lost video in pup shape, of course. burning barn right it's gonna fit the theme nice yeah you gotta name the movies jim got a name the movies my son my son just ran up and accidentally punched that one i don't know okay really baked wow okay sorry about that
16:17
um so jim fiends just sent you the video for rap and duke okay i'll check it out check it out later yeah i will yeah if i do it now i'll I'll lose you guys.
16:32
Fliptronic, how are you, buddy? Let's go for this. Let's see if we can get to Stampede. Oh, gunfight.
16:43
He's got all different gunfights in here. Yeah, there's 14 to be exact. 14 gunfights. There's Joey. Yep. In the coffin. Jim, I'm no fun. There's two animations for Gunfight. One's slightly shorter than the other, so I put seven on each. Nice. And they're timed to the DMD. I don't know if you noticed that. Yes! But when the eyes show up, yeah. Yes! And then every cut scene, the video clip also cuts with the DVD, or the DMD. Sorry. How difficult is it to sync those like that? That took a long time. I just have to record it and then sync it later in the editing. Spice Pup Pack took three months. It's so much timing to the DMD.
17:32
Yeah. Even the animations, you know, it's like when you just saw Quick Draw there, that timed with the DMD. And it flickered at the same time, too. Wow. The exact flickers, yeah.
17:48
The John Wayne spin. All right, what do we got so far? Let's see Doing good, gotta do stuff in a sec But want to say hello We should watch Speed 2 this Friday Because cruise ships rule I hope you guys had a great time On your cruise I think that Jordan and Becca Went on a cruise And Yeah I missed you guys So thank you We're not doing a theater this Friday I am taking this Friday off To to play in a pinball tournament. Wow, that was a hell of a save.
18:31
I can't seem to hit the frigging... Oh, there's a bad guy. Who is it? Okay, it's not a special bad guy yet. Who is it?
18:43
Oh! What did we just hit? Stampede? Oh, we hit Showdown. Okay. I gotta kill... I gotta kill four bad guys. If I can kill four bad guys to get an add a ball. I'm pretty sure that's how it works. And you'd be surprised at how much you can miss bad guys in this mode with two balls. All right, all four got an add a ball. Boom. Boom. Shoot. Boom. I still got two. I went right between them. Okay. One. Two. Add a ball. One. Now I don't need to play this mode well. I just need to play the mode to qualify high noon. So I've already qualified the mode, but if I do well, I get points, obviously, right? And that's what pinball is all about, it's getting points.
19:44
So let's... Ugh. Got him. There's another attaball. And this is the point where I can't watch Jim's beautiful work. But you guys can.
20:00
Jim, maybe this will give you some ideas after this. for a few more things to run. Alright, that was a pretty good showdown. 8 million.
20:13
Amanda's going to win this time. Way out west. What's up? Really baked. If you see the old guy on the cruise, it's probably my dad.
20:23
I think I saw lots of your dads this week. So, where are we right now? We got some shots to this here. We got a couple shots to what I call the white water ramp.
20:34
Yeah, because it's got white water right there. We're close to Stampede, but I'm going to do this. See how the overlay changed to gold? It's beautiful, man. I love it. Yeah.
20:53
Mother load! So, what you want to do in this mode is get jackpots before you collect mother load. That will make Motherload worth a lot more. So if you can collect three jackpots, your Motherload... Really? I didn't know that. Yeah. So I see I got two jackpots left, one on the white water ramp, and...
21:15
I was wondering why it was only $250,000 the first time I hit Motherload. I'm like, hell, I'll just go for the $500,000 on the jackpot. So if I can get that one... No. How about this?
21:31
Alright, let's see what I can do, maybe. Nope. Okay. Cradle separation, maybe? Maybe I can shoot that orbit like this. Woo! Nope.
21:47
There we go. One. Uh-oh, that didn't look good. Okay. One. I tried to backhand it. Okay, pretty decent. Okay, got Motherload.
22:08
Nice. I love that. Jim, you have to watch chat because I can't look at these. I can't look at them. Oh, yeah. I love you guys. So we got Motherload. We got Showdown. We want Stampede. We're close to Stampede, so I need to hit that. Oh, no.
22:23
Oh, no. Damn it. Back Flippery asked, how long does it take to make? This took since June to get it this far. Yeah, three months, three, four months. This is the longest I've ever taken on a pup pack. This one took longer than Adam's family. There's so much here. There's 600 gigabytes of stuff in this. There's over 375 videos. I mean, 600 megabytes. If you include the underlay videos and the pup shape videos, there's over 375.
22:56
Jeez. This is so much fun, Jim. All right. I got to get my game head on back because I got ball three.
23:07
And what do I want from the ball? Okay. I need Stampede. I still need Stampede? Come on. Let's do it. Let's go. Stampede.
23:15
Stampede. I wish I could make a putt pack for Continued. Catch the scanning Continued. If anybody ever figures that out, I'm on.
23:24
It's a little different. Yeah. More modes. There are also combos that you need to make to qualify... Crap. To qualify... Ah! Come on, Manu. Get yourself a stampede right now. Boom. There we go. Yeah, Harlan, I was looking at the Jango clips. There's three or four different Jango movies. I'll probably grab them, but I couldn't find any good quality ones. I'm not done yet. I'll probably add some. Hey, I got a replay. Look at that replay. Look at that replay animation. It rewinded. It rewinded, you guys. Shout out to Joey for this incredible overlay. I mean, look how cool that is. It is. It's really super nice.
24:27
And he gave me this one from the get-go. We didn't have to go back and forth on the design too much. He handed this to me and it looked great. I think there was curves at the rope around the frame. It had a curve and I said, with the video, you can't have a curve. So he came up with those guns in the corner and the rusted L-bracket. It was brilliant.
24:47
And I was off to the races. I got a ball stuck in, I know, where it is it's in the bandit right now and we'll find it this has happened before
25:00
come on you can do it baby you can find it you can find it there it is shoot i almost lost that yes pup alpha Okay What I need right now is I need Bart Brothers And I need combos But the harder of the two is going to be the combos The Bart Brothers I can do So what you got to do is you just got to shoot combos You got to set them up and shoot them There's That's not a combo shot right there Well I can't make it a combo That's not a combo Okay let's set up a combo One That's not a combo It's a good shot Thank you Okay Middle ramp is a combo Two Gunfight Ah Interrupted combo Alright Let's see if we can see A character this time Anybody? No And I delayed that for you I delayed that one on purpose.
26:18
Here, let's go. Let's go. Uh-oh. Okay, up the middle. Let's set up another combo, Jim. Oh, no. Woo-hoo.
26:32
All right, Jim. Let's set up a combo here. Let's get those combos so we can find out what our combo status is. Actually, if I look at the status screen, will it show me the combo status?
26:42
Status report. No. This is before they had good status reports. You'd be surprised how hard it is to hit a middle shot when you're trying to hit a middle shot.
26:58
Alright, let's set up this freaking combo. Oh, no! No! Alright. There's a video for that. Thanks. I'm convinced Jim is part AI now. Yeah, I know.
27:20
Okay. I'm not watching the chat. Finish the Bart Brothers. Now, Jim, if I finish this game, though, it's not fair to people who want, when they get the pup pack, they want to be surprised.
27:33
Oh, yeah. I'm just, I'm murdering people so fast, we can't even watch the videos. Yeah, and we can't see the character pop up.
27:45
Look at all the neat That's Rick the bounty hunter there That was Rick I saw him Yeah, that was Rick Yeah, you shot him again That's Rick right there Bounty's lit Yeah There he Oh, you were there for a second Was I? Yeah Oh that's me now Oh that was you That was me yeah That's Joey Kill Joey Bye bye Joey I'm sorry Joey I love you I'm sorry Sorry I had to murder you in this game I'm sorry Joey Alright Bart Brothers Oh no Hey hey No no who is that Thank you, Skyler. I love you.
29:00
What's up, Wolfman? Yeah, Marty, Westworld's in here several times, yeah. I had to use Westworld. Good stuff. Joey, what is your, um... Joey, what are your initials? I'm going to put you in here. I'm going to blame that on my son. Is that okay? Can I blame that on my five-year-old?
29:22
I had Bart Brothers and Combos. So Combos are Joe J okay Couples are hard What up Jedi What's up, Jedi? Game Club Central, thank you for the biddies.
29:41
So if you just... I think that's The Searchers, 1956, John Wayne. That's a famous scene. It's called the... Yeah, the door scene of a... The walk. That's the javelin walk we all know, right? That's a great ending, right? Yeah, that's it, bro. You nailed that ending. That's the famous scene. The walk away, he turns around and he walks and he... Yeah. Nobody watched me pat myself on the back here, right?
30:13
Ah, I was so close. I was so there. Don't interrupt the dude. That's right. Was that back-lippery? No surprise because when you give it a credit, when credit one shows up it's supposed to have a video that shows Clint Eastwood saying get three coffins ready. Like three balls, three coffins. Oh really? Yeah but that didn't appear and then there's another one from Westworld that shows up. But it's only when you give it one credit. credit so we're gonna take another shot at this why did you bring a bunch of uh tilda swinton's to attack me um so we're gonna take another shot at this joe i mean uh yeah joey we're gonna take another shot at this and jim we're gonna take not chad this this is we're looking at the to be released uh pup pack for the classic version of cactus canyon um when do you think this will be i hate asking that question i i hate asking like some of the pink credibles that question so maybe i'll come up with another question jim yeah a few days but now now you guys are adding work for me so you know i have to add that tilt the Duke rapping thing.
31:38
Maybe by this weekend it'll be ready. How's that? Da ha, da ha. Okay, let's go. Let's go. Yeah, enjoy it. No topper videos, Joey. I'm stopping at Pub Shapes. There's 378 videos. I don't want to make this pup pack a gig. it's over 600 now yeah it's a little over 600 yeah alright here we go I'm going to work on combos first
32:20
I'm going to work on combos first Terry isn't yet Terry got me started But Terry got me started on Monster Bash. I was really a noob back then. I didn't know what I was doing.
32:36
Oh, yeah? Yeah, I watched his YouTube video on how to make a pup pack, and I was lost. So I said, I'm going to send him a message, messenger. But he's not going to get back to me, right?
32:47
Or he's going to say, watch the video again, kid. But he didn't. He gave me this long response. And then several more after that, and it really got me going. so yeah Terry thank you oh my god I haven't seen this one I haven't seen that one Jim oh Firefly videos that was a new one to me that was sweet uh oh come on work on combos man work on oh no Ronald Reagan get shot the irony in that.
33:39
Is that enough of the joke right there? Am I any good at this game? No. 39 million is my high score. That tells you how good I am. And I was pretty proud of that.
33:53
Well, there's Nailbuster. there goes nail buster sorry nail buster i've only been playing pinball for four years my kids got me a pinball machine for my 50th birthday before that i just had the uh joust machine back here the main main cab yeah so this got me into pinball that is a great gift holy smokes i wish my kids loved me as much Well they got me the Rec Room Masters 24 inch Cab I had that for a long time Then I gave it to my dad because I wanted a full size And then I ended up getting this At Games I put full SSF in it I completely bypassed the At Games Stuff It boots right into Popper Let's see if I can rescue Polly It's a challenging rescue but Oh boy, come on.
34:55
Sometimes you can do it. There's no sense, I don't think there's any sense in trying to delay it by shooting up the middle. Just gotta take those shots. One more!
35:08
One more! Stop it right there, ball. One more! Line it up. Boom, she's saved. Someone is asking if there is an option for a full DMD. Yes there is. There is a full DMD version with pup shapes. Any two screen users in the chat, you're going to get pup shapes too. So Jim... And I tested it and it works. I hope it will work for everybody. I really need more testers. Yeah you need more testers. Jim...oh... Yeah, watch the timing. See?
35:54
So, Jim, I do got to tell you something. I saved Polly, but it showed me the Polly died video. It did? Yeah. There's a bug. So you can... And what's good about this is you can check the VOD later. And you can see, you know, if you could find whatever it was. But I managed to save Polly. I got the extra ball.
36:14
No, I wanted that to happen. I'm being artistic. Okay. You either give the game to me or Frisco, and either one of us will break it. Trust me.
36:31
I know Motherload is lit, but I want a better Motherload value. So now I'll go for Motherload. Ravus the Mage. I hope I said that right. Any good clips from Good, Bad, and Ugly? Yes, there are several clips from Good, Bad, and Ugly. Yeah. Including, mainly in the gunfight mode.
36:56
There we go. Let's go for a second motherlode, huh? Why don't we? You notice every time you hit the beer switch, there's people at the saloon. Oh, yeah? And then the beer bottles come in on the pub shape, yeah.
37:11
There it is again. Come on over. Give me another mother load. I really want another mother load.
37:22
Mother load. Nope. Mother load. There it is. What's up? Who is that? Who is that that just came in? Who is that sneaking in the room?
37:38
Oh, jeez. I thought that was a mistake in the pup pack. No. I don't know. I need to mute that. That's one of my friends coming in. All right, let's trap up since we're done with Motherlode. That was pretty good. All I did was Motherlode so far.
37:58
I love that scene. Man, he just fires and just hits everybody. Oh, my God. Polly, easy. four more four more combos for a star all right jim four more combos for a star and then i could just crank out the rest now the way you get combos guys you shoot rapidly when you shoot a shot the other shots will light as combo you have about this game gives you a long time actually about five seconds to hit the next shot to register as a combo. I think it gives you a really long time. It gives you way too long. It's not enough time for me.
38:50
Let's see if we can do a quick draw. I need about 30 seconds. You need just to flash for the rest of the ball.
39:00
I do have a bounty, I think, or jack. What is that? That is jackpot. So I'm going to try and get to quick draw. Let's see. That's two spins. One, two. Got it.
39:22
Okay. Bounty. We want to take that bounty. Good use of the door, Duke. All right. There's a jackpot. There's a Bart Brother. Two more.
39:51
Let's get our Stampede set up. Of course, you know, top lanes, light, your bonus X. There's a combo.
40:04
There's a combo. Let's get another one. Crap. Uh-oh. That doesn't look good. There we go. Nudge. You gotta nudge, kids. If you're not nudging, you're not playing pinball.
40:16
Stampede. Here we go. Let's do it. Jim, you made me play this game too much. Yep. Aren't those pup shapes fun? Yeah.
40:32
It only takes several thousand hours to make it. I know. You and the fishbowl are maniacs, I tell you. Yep. Uh-oh. Oh, that was a good save.
40:48
First thing you do when you make a pup pack is buy your wife flowers, because she's not going to see you for three months.
41:00
Oh, boy. You know, my first thought of this pup pack, I wanted to use the Looney Tunes, like Drip Along Daffy. Bugs Bunny rides again. But there just wasn't enough content to fill the pup pack. I thought about sprinkling some in here and there, but I looked at it and it kind of clashed a little bit. So I left them out. But I have them. I have a lot of cool clips that would fit in certain modes.
41:31
I want more jackpots, Jim. Oh no, a double drain! Oh! Hey! Dr. Curly Tech, what's up? Uh-oh, my new favorite walk-in sound now. From Dr. Curly Tech.
41:54
Okay, we're at 35 million by ball three, and we haven't made any real progress here. Let's see. I would love to show you guys High Noon. I would love to show you High Noon. It is amazing.
42:10
Jim, I hit high noon tonight. Just before stream, I hit high noon, and my kids ran in my office. They never do that.
42:18
They ran in the office and went, what is going on? That's quite a compliment. I was like, I just beat the game. They were like, oh, my God, that's insane.
42:30
That's something for you kids to shoot for. I did the pup shapes a little different on this one. And with the Flintstones, it was just like a long rectangle at the bottom of the screen for the text and animations. This one I used the entire overlay as the pup shape. So anywhere those characters are from the original Backglass, I can put video on top of that. No panic flip! 33 months! Holy smokes! All the other areas of the screen are blue, you know, for transparent. So if you see a blue screen, your setup isn't right. Your transparency isn't right. Or you're not running the latest pinup system.
43:15
I'm sure everybody has the latest one now, right? I know, right? They have to. Crap. Yeah. What's up, Don't Panic Flip? How you doing, buddy?
43:27
I cannot. Oh, my God. That's a bad flip. See, as soon as he shows up, I start to panic flip. As soon as he shows up, I start to panic flip. And he says don't. He says don't. The name is don't. Panic flip.
43:41
Huh. Give me those combos. Oh no! No! I can't hit the freaking thing on a forehand. I cannot hit the... I just can't hit this on a forehand for some reason. What's up, Try to Tilt? I can't seem to hit it on a backhand either now.
44:09
I can give you some tips if you want to know how to score 39 million Oh Nah well I do 43 Dang it. Oh, I'm so upset at my performance tonight.
44:28
Three stars. Showdown again. And I got combos! Oh, I got combos. Who just did that? Don't panic, flip, resubscribe. So it's going to be a DPF up in here.
44:42
DPF. D. Thank you, my brother. Thank you, my brother from another mother. That would be George. DPF. Bam.
44:53
Is there any chance of getting tails for MPT3K hoodies? Oh, talls? Talls? is there any chance of getting talls by mptkvios homegrown dub thank you for the follow what is what are tall oh what i don't know what those are does anyone who oh you're six three I don't know I sell what they They give me on Teespring Literally tall size Oh I don't know Hey I'll Back Flipper Ring I'll check Teespring And see if they do have it In the Collection of stuff That they have I have not seen those Size on Teespring No So Marty is on it Yeah It's a belly shirt That's a cool shirt you got there, Manu It's a cool shirt you got there, Jim Jackson Jim Jackson, who is the creator Of this beautiful Cactus Canyon Pup Pack And if you're new here, you don't know what a pup pack is It's a way to add Kind of like Jersey Jack, Stern style Video excitement For your standard pinball This is a Bally 1998 Cactus Canyon recreation. It's the VPW builds, the virtual pinball workshop group did the game and Jim, along with a bunch of other people, which I'm sure he's going to shout out. Shout out some people, Jim, who helped you out with this once again so they can hear. Just Joey. Me and Joey did this whole thing. Just Joey. Joey's the whole team.
46:43
Joey's the whole team. All the two of you guys. that's why he started this table in 1999 the year after the table was created jim was on it jim was like oh hell yeah in 2022 where are we should i try one more yes it's about this shirt this shirt my wife doesn't like me wearing this out of the house that's why I'm wearing it now. She says if I'm ever in the hospital, she better not show up and find me wearing this shirt.
47:21
Apparently, apparently she equates this the same as not having clean underwear on in an accident. I don't understand it.
47:30
So I bought her one. I sent her a gray one. She has it. And she wears it. Nice. Thank you, sir, for helping feed my kids.
47:41
What's up, Al Anonymous? Please beat the game. Al Anonymous, oh my god, why are you doing this to me? I can't beat the game in 10 minutes.
47:53
And then Al Anonymous goes, not with that attitude. What do you guys think in chat? Should I add some Looney Tunes clips in here or not? Or leave them out? Oh yeah, you got Jim right here, kids. Ask Jim suggestions and stuff. Oh!
48:08
I almost lost the ball watching that. See, Jim? I almost lost the ball watching that clip. The clock is freaking lit.
48:30
Blazing Saddles. Someone's asking for some Blazing freaking... No, Jim, come on. Jim. Blazing Saddles? Really? Never thought of that one. I guess I could, yeah. What year was that? That had to be the 70s, right? Yes. So, chat, just so you guys know,
48:52
friends in chat, what's up, Flipstream? Friends in chat, just so you know, and I think I can speak for Jim in this one little moment, everything in here is kind of authentically Western.
49:07
Not a Western spoof or Western, is that correct, Jim? That's right. yeah you're right so you guys are drifting into kind of western spoof western remake western these are all in that yeah pretty sure that movie's can't no well i'll not as blazing sound is not canceled it's just not gonna get air time anymore yeah fiends i looked at shakiest gun in the west with don nuts there wasn't anything that worked with the modes so I left it out oh you robbed me game how did you rob me just then game Alnano since you showed up I'm doing worse you can't tell someone to leave stream?
50:09
Can we get some western porn then? Is that a thing? Yeah, that's a good question. I think... I don't know if it's funny. This pitch looks gnarly. I put my sneakers under the front legs. It is... It's pretty steep. It's set up pretty hard.
50:36
There's Joey. I killed Joey again. Jim, I'm loving this game. I get to kill Joey like a bunch of times.
50:50
Let's save Polly. We haven't seen the large videos pop up with the bad guys. After gunfight? Let me see if I can save Polly so we can watch that video again. Oh, I got a visual. That is a good shot. No! It's gone! It's lifely. You know in some ways the rescue poly thing is really a sucker. It's like a sucker mode. If you can't make those shots, then the game is asking you to drain. the game is asking you to drain, like right there. And a lot of people don't feel like the payoff is worth it. But an extra ball is an extra ball. There it is! This is this movie! THIS IS THIS MOVIE! Good, bad, and ugly. And I missed! Got him. Oh there, that's Joey again. This pump pack likes Joey. Can we buy the Barn Doors Mod DLC?
52:30
That's a good one, Al. Oh, this is a bad one. Okay, got Motherload. As long as I got Motherload, I'm happy. Look at this.
52:46
Oh, all right. We're so close to Stampede again. Hey, thank you for the picture. Yeah, the bullets fly when you hit the jet bumpers.
53:06
Oh, my God. Oh, do they? Every time. Yeah, every time you hit the jet bumpers. Oh my god Classic radios Dude you I think you've knocked that out of the park I'm not just saying this The more I played it I was like There's a ton of content in here Oh yeah Who loves this one
53:41
Looks like it's playing pretty well for you. Oh, it's playing great. It's playing great. I intentionally, you know, I intentionally didn't get to high noon so that people can enjoy it on their own in their houses. Yeah. Right. So you're welcome, chat.
54:05
You done killed Pony. You done killed Pony. I like the idea of a Looney Tunes clip but it kind of clashes with the current style yeah I mean I'm really happy that Jim didn't go the route of kind of like the westerns that kind of you know are not authentically classic and I think you should you know maybe for a tilt animation you can get silly like throw a Looney Tunes on a tilt animation I could do that but I would say Jim keep it very because you're really the people who really watched westerns back in the day a buddy of mine was a huge western fan a buddy of mine was the one who said no you gotta watch Good, Bad and Ugly I was like that movie's like six hours long dude isn't it like three hours something like that yeah it's really long if I never watch another western it'll be too soon believe me I went through a couple hundred of them for these clips right but it was riveting I really enjoyed it and I really got a lot of respect for Clint Eastwood as you know an up and coming like badass actor you know what I mean so that's it kids now I have to start thinking about my next pup pack there you go this one's almost finished You know what I was thinking? Tales of the Arabian Nights would be a good one.
55:41
Spoiler? I mean, yeah, it'd be cool if you did that. You know, it's all right. I mean. Yeah. Just a thought. You know.
55:53
I just put up 60 million on Tales of the Arabian Nights today. I have a totan in the garage right now. It's on loan. But an actual physical totan.
56:04
And I really like that game now. Like, I went from, like, ah, this game's cool to, like, I really like that game. Yeah, Sinbad. Sinbad would be good, yeah.
56:18
Anyway, okay, let's not give Jim a little extra work. He's got to finish this one up. What happened? Weird Totan flex. Fiends, you know I got a Totan downstairs.
56:34
Yeah, it's so hard not to ask you when this is coming out, but it'll be done when it's done. Right, Jim? Right. Yeah. Within days. Where will we be able to download this? All the usual, well, VP Universe. I'll put it up there.
56:52
