Depends on what you put in your .xml file.
My .xml file looks like this:

<game name="ACDC_VP912FS">
    <description>ACDC (JPSalas 2012)</description>
    <manufacturer>JPSalas</manufacturer>
    <year>2012</year>
    <type>SS</type>
  </game>

The backglass is called "ACDC (JPSalas 2012).png", the wheel image is called "ACDC (JPSalas 2012).png" and the table image is also called "ACDC (JPSalas 2012).png".

Shoot me because I can't get it to work.
Also no songs. I put the music folder in Hyperpin.
So where in Hyperpin exactly should the music folder be?

[destruk]

You're cute. This is not a ROM table, this is an original table. No ROM, no coin door to open with end and no volume adjust button.

actually, there is end to open the coin door, then press 1 and you get into the adjustments and settings for the game...
The music folder for the mp3's should be inside the folder you use for visual pinball.exe

BTW - Extremely fine work on this JP and Grizz - it's amazing! Thanks

I got the music to work. Did put them in Hyperpin and not in VP

But still no backglass and table image, only wheel image.
Which is strange because I always copy the description name from .xml and then rename all the files with that name.

How great is that! There's a fake ROM setup that looks exactly like the real ones!
Well done!

It's probably just a small typo or something. You didn't call it AC/DC did you? Hyperpin doesn't like the slash. Hmm.. no... Windows wouldn't allow that...

Does anyone else have a problem with the 4 small lightening bolts for the modes NOT lighting up like the 8 other big lightening bolts?

With the Houston pinball show going on this weekend I missed this table. Can't wait to try it.

[Aaron James]

Do the lights ( that I mentioned in the above post ) work for the rest of you guys?

[Shadowsclassic]

Never noticed them coming on in the game and they don't light during the attract mode.

Perhaps stupid me, but when I start HyperPin, I only get the wheel image. How to get static backglass and table image (and yes I did put them in the appropriate folders).

I have exactly the same problems. 143 other tables are running well and here no back glass and table image. Can anyone help to create a new media pack with video?

[jpsalas]

Updated with a fix for the broken lights. So you'll need to download the table again to fix those 4 center lights which didn't turn on

Ok problem solved.
You've got to rotate the table image 90 degrees to the right (bottom of image should be to the left) and then save the image as .png.
When you start up HP the table image and backglass image work.

Why nobody else has this problem?

Thank you, it worked also at my cab. Strange, because at the other music tables, I rotated the table image in jpeg format without any problems. Anyway, thanks for help!

THANKS JP and DESTRUK!

Ensure you rename the table, backglass and wheel to the same name that is identified in the XML. If your table image is not created, the backglass will not show up. I'm not sure which version of fplaunch handles it, but when I load any table through Hyperpin, once in the table itself, I press the letter "o" which saves a snapshot of the table and names it properly too (it uses the database entry). Once that's done, I quit the table, move away from it to the previous table and go back to it and voila both play field and backglass now show up in Hyperpin.
