Windows XP was the last client release of Windows to include this game 3D Pinball for Windows - Space Cadet was removed from later releases of Windows due to a collision detection bug in the 64-bit version of the game that Microsoft was not able to resolve in time for the release of Windows Vista.

What is weird is that I could run GB in Windows XP, even if series 10 doesn't support XP and it's running with the generic SVGA driver of WinXP, the game ran okay, even when logic would dictate it couldn't possibly do it.Windows 95 – Windows XP 3D Pinball for Windows – Space Cadet is a version of the Space Cadet table that was originally packaged with Microsoft Plus! 95 and later included with Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows ME, and Windows XP. PS: Thanks for Slam Tilt for Amiga, I had the Windows version running okay until recently, when I upgraded my graphic card to geforce 10 series, it completely killed it, not even deactivating hardware acceleration like I had to do before helped.Īs a sidenot, the new graphic card also killed Galactic Battlegrounds with the same exact glitch, the graphics are black and white and all artifacted and scrambled. If you still have win7, you'll find that you don't have an option to do it, and you have toī) Deactivate DirectDraw Acceleration in the control panel If you have an old graphic card you may be able to run it, by deactivating DirectDraw acceleation on dxdiag.exe. ![]() If you enjoy pinball games, Slam Tilt is a worthy addition to your collection.

Multiball is available on all the tables, multiple flippers on most of them, and there are many ramps to shoot and traps to put the ball in. Themes of all four table encompass a good range of subjects: Mean Machines (the weakest table of the bunch) depict Mad Max-style chaos The Pirates offers mermaids, cannonballs, sharks and swordplay Ace of Space (second best table in my opinion) is full of alien attacks, light sabers, and space stations Night of the Demon - in my opinion the best table here - is the only one with two flippers but no less action, as it offers up spirits, vampires, zombies, witchcraft, and more. As per usual, there are four 2D tables in the game, each centered on a theme. Slam Tilt is not a revolutionary game, but it does what every good pinball game offers: entertain pinball fans with smooth gameplay, interesting themes, and excellent graphics and sounds.
