i haven't fixed yet the other issues i have with vp ( vp10 doesn't works and some tables won't open ). I have the latest vpinmame 2.6. ok let's start when i first installed vp10. Installed it, downloaded few tables and tried opening them with no results.Then i decided to uninstall it.After when i uninstalled vp10 another program showed up.It's an IObit uninstaller program. On it shows the residual files which i deleted (now i know i shouldn't have).After i deleted them i started to have problems with visual pinball some tables opening with errors others not opening at all.I,m thinking that along the files i deleted on IObit (1,600) (!) it deleted some other files that needs visual pinball to work right. I figured the files that have been deleted were pinball tables files and othe vp files since when i click on open on, let's say any vp version it shows nothing. No tables. Should i delete the whole program and reinstall it back or what?. I tried re-installing the essentials files (Vbs scripts, fonts, etc.) but still nothing. Thanks for any help any of you can bring. And keep "pinballing" lol 

ohh another thing. I've been trying opening some vp tables i have on an external hard drive. Same results.

Did you try the all in one installer?  It installs VP8, VP9, VP10 and Physmod along with everything else VP requires

hey gtxjoe....yes, i did tried it, i could retry tho.After i download the file i should put it on visual pinball folder,right?

[gtxjoe]

No, it's an installer, you download it and run it to install VP

[4EVERBOOTS]

Installed the VPXinstaller again. "machine terminated before initializing. check the rom path etc". hmm maybe that's it, the rom path.going to check it out.

it seems ok. Probably i did something wrong AFTER the vp files were deleted.When i tried reinstalling everything.

[4EVERBOOTS]

well i just reinstalled the installer. Something else. I downloaded a ROM for Space Invaders table and it worked!!

Apparently it has to do with the ROMS. I'm starting to see the light 

on vpX im getting error loading.

Thanks again gtxjoe.....See ya around. 

[4EVERBOOTS]

I just returned back home from Best Buy with the external hard drive. The rest is up to me.

[N3roflint]

Any results?

[4EVERBOOTS]

I found out that most of the tables certain program found they didnt showed so i couldnt send them to the external hard drive, only 5.Like i posted in another thread i will have to redownload Visual Pinball with all it's tables and stuffs.

[4EVERBOOTS]

Now i can't download anythying since that when i try to do so vp9.9.2 appears with an error. I heard that doing a system restore won't help.

[jbg4208]

Ok, What table are you trying to download? Also what is the exact error message you are getting? Lets see if we can walk you through this step by step.

Good. I'm downloading a table. There it is again: vp9.9.2 showed up with the message "Error loading C:\users\JULIO V-AppData\Local\Temp\4cs0s9b.temp\Ace Hight (Gottlieb) VP9_v1.1.vpt.zip

[jbg4208]

Ok. Lets start with the basics first. Ace High is a table that does not require a ROM so we do not have to worry about that portion.

 

Once you download the table.

• Be sure to unzip or extract the Ace High.vpt file to you TABLES folder. This will be located inside your VISUAL PINBALL folder on your C: Drive. Now I see you used the VPX Installer. So the visual pinball folder will either be in the PROGRAM FILES folder or the PROGRAM FILES (x86) folder. (depending on           your operating system bit type)
• Next since this is a VP 9 table you need top open the VP9.9.2 exe file in the VISUAL PINBALL folder.
• When this opens it will be a blank gray screen.
• Click FILE, in the top left corner, then click OPEN.
• This will open another box. From that box you need to find your tables folder again. (It might default to it, I can't remember.) If not you need to navigate to it with the options on the left.column.
• Double click on the  Ace High table in that box. The table should then open in the editor.
• Hit F5  or click PLAY on the left side.  

If you have done everything correctly it should work fine. Let me know how it goes.

wellowhen i try to download a table file it won't show the files but the vp9.9.2 window box. It pops up with that error. I'ts all a mess.   . I can't download ANYTHING.

Yes, i followed your instructions the best i could.

Ill have to run a system recovery (or whatever it is called -not system restore-) and start all over again. It will delete EVERYTHING but for now there's no other way (for now).

I appreciate to all the people on this great forum who gave me some advice. 

[jbg4208]

ok. So if you click on this link. ---> HERE. Then click the green download button. And click Agree and download, and choose the Green download button again on the 1.3v. 

 

Tell me exactly what happens after clicking that last download button. 

 

Also what version of windows and what browser are you using? Had any viruses recently?

[allknowing2012]

What do you mean by download anything? You can download from this site. Do you mean "run" anything?

if you download a file .vpx then you run that with the vpinballx.exe - if you download a .vpt you run it with vpinball992.exe 

There are exceptions to that - if the name has pm5 in it or physmod - then you use vp physmod.exe.

[4EVERBOOTS]

yeah allknowing2012. I meant RUN. When i try to run the file that window opens up. I read from another post that there was something about the site that was screwing it up.

[gtxjoe]

You don't RUN the file.  You run vpinball.exe and open the .vpt file and press play

[4EVERBOOTS]

ok jbg 4208, after i click the green button it shows the download window. When its finally downloaded thats when the vp9.9.2 window shows up. With an error on it. I'm running Windows 7 and i use Safarai as the browser. And recently i ran a virus scan using Webroot finding nothing.

[4EVERBOOTS]

Safari*

Ok gtxjoe and you are right. I got my mind all mixed up with these VP problems lol.
