Request for additional fields for Pinball

[Jay Thompson]

There is a need for additional fields in Launchbox and the Games Database for Pinball specific entries. Hard to justify adding anything to the database without these fields present.

Fields for consideration:

• Table Author

• Table image (Currently using arcade - cabinet image in my local installation)

• Playfield Screenshot (currently using screenshot - gameplay image in my local installation)

• Backglass Screenshot (currently using marquee in my local installation)

• DMD image? (not sure if necessary but thinking forward)

• Table a re-creation or original (drop down or radio button)

• If re-creation, original manufacturer (Bally, Midway, Zaccaria, etc)

I discussed this briefly on the forum. http://forums.launchbox-app.com/topic/35039-considering-contributing-to-the-cause-seeking-guidance/

Thanks! Let me know if I can help in any way. Jay

I second this desire ... has any progress been made to the games database to allow better metadata for Pinball machines?

Thanks... Launch-box is an emulation game changer.
