Version 1.6b.20061029 add some cool features as Dot Matrix Display from 1.5 (with was the first release with ramps support)

See offical site for release notes and free download.

What works
- The editor seems to be fully working
- Loading a table and playing it works, but there is some textures and sound issues

Automatic Installation :

I've created a install script that download and setup everything needed :
Grab it here : http://fprelease.free.fr/fpwine/

Or do it Manually :

- Copy from a windows xp partition to ~/drive_c/windows/system32/ (or download from internet) :
mfc42.dll
vbscript.dll

- Execute :
wine regsvr32 VBScript (to register the vbscript.dll)

- Install DCOM98.exe (find this on internet) :
Set windows compatibility to win98 with winecfg.
Execute :
rm ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/ole32.dll
rm ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/oleaut32.dll
rm ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/olepro32.dll
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ole32=n" wine DCOM98.EXE

- Re-set windows compatibility to windows XP with winecfg, and disable sound (uncheck all sound driver)

- Install Future Pinball :
wine FuturePinballSetup_v1.6b.20061029.exe

- Run Future Pinball :
WINEDLLOVERRIDES=ole32,oleaut32=n wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Future\ Pinball/Future\ Pinball.exe

What does not
- Textures on the playfield aren't visibles.
- Textures on external sides of the pinball are some times missing (it depends on tables ?).
- The sound doesn't work well, it must be disabled.
- Future Pinball needs natives dlls for DCOM.

What was not tested
- I haven't test every options of the editors, but globally it seems ok

Additional Comments

- Tested on a fresh Feisty, with nvidia driver enabled (nvidia 6600GT) 

- No more need of native crypt32.dll and rsaenh.dll with wine 0.9.39
