What it changes

Adds Hi-Diver (Gottlieb 1959), a VPX table by JP Salas: an electromechanical Gottlieb machine from 1959. No ROM needed; Play opens it straight in Visual Pinball X.

About Hi-Diver (Gottlieb 1959)

JP's recreation of Hi-Diver, a 1959 Gottlieb electromechanical. Strangeleo76 supplied photos of a real machine and redrew the wheel, swimmers and slingshot plastics; STAT made the backglass. The download includes the wheel image and backglass.

This is an electromechanical table: the original machine had no computer, so JP scripted its rules himself and it needs no ROM. It plays as soon as it is installed.

The table downloads from JP's own page on VPForums, as he asked, so you always get his latest version, and that is where to report bugs or ask questions. The first time you install a table, PlayBound asks you to sign in to VPForums with a free account; after that, every table is one click.

Compatibility: Visual Pinball X 10.8 (installed by PlayBound). No ROM required.

Install with the PlayBound Launcher

The launcher installs this into tables/jp-hi-diver-gottlieb-1959/ for Visual Pinball X. If the base game is missing, it will install that first.

  • Frequently asked questions about Hi-Diver (Gottlieb 1959)

    Is it free?

    Yes. JP Salas makes his tables free, and PlayBound lists this one with his permission.

    Why do I need a VPForums account?

    JP hosts his tables only on VPForums so there is one place for updates and support, and VPForums requires a free member account to download. You sign in once; PlayBound never sees your password.

    Do I need a ROM?

    No. This is an electromechanical table, so its rules are scripted in the table itself.

    Where do I report a bug?

    On the table's VPForums page: https://www.vpforums.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=14420
