You'll have to point to your new screenshot folder in VP-Man's settings dialog. Click on the 'Related Files' tab, check 'Support screenshot & flyers' and point to the folder where your table images are located. After that, make sure the 'Related documents' panel is visible: From main menu select View->Related documents.



Thank you so much!! I figured it would be a simple solution. Thanks again for the quick response.

Fartian, in the next update of VP-Man can you add an option to unexpire FP by making it think that the system date has not gone past the FP expiration date? Is this something that can be done?

This can already be done via the launching options (avoid expiration).

If I run Future Pinball in windowed mode, Alt-Printscreen works for me.

Works fine for me with the printscreen key, even in fullscreen mode.
Seems to be a graphic card issue when it doesn't work for you.

I have a problem switching between vp8 and vp9 tables. Vp8 tables seem to work just fine, but vp9 tables just wont start, error in script after rendering the table.
I can launch the tables just fine without vpman, so I do have all the correct files. Selecting vp9 in the Alter table data menu does not help, although I do think it has to be selecting the right vpinball.exe.

Recently I wanted to install VP-Man once again. I thought I had the latest version/update, but I was wrong, so in the end I wanted to download the actual files anyway. Actually that seems to be a thing of impossibility. The download link seems to always (!) display an error, because of overload/overcharge (see attachments). Do you experience the same? Do you know another possibility/place where to download VP-Man and the additional files? Thanks in advance.

I was having problems the other day myself. I had to install an older version I already had. Rapidshare sucks.

I never experienced any problems with my rapidshare premium account.
But if it don't work for you, I will upload VP-Man directly to my webspace
at the weekend. Maybe to VP-Forums as well, if that's possible.

That would be nice Fartian, because it's an annoyance, if you want to download anything, because you want it exactly then, and then it doesn't work. Instead you have to try to download it anytime later or anytime in the next days or on next weekend and only if you have the special luck, the download finally works.

I don't know, but I'm pretty sure anyway (I hope), that VPForums can/will provide a possibility to upload VP-Man.

Thanks for VP-Man and your continuous work on it.
