Yah, VP10 requires a bit more power from the GPU. But it's well worth it.

Ok, I'm not familiar with safari. I know it is used on mac's so that is why I asked. Can you use internet explorer or google chrome to download these? Sounds like safari is trying to auto open downloads with vp9.

I tried from Google Chrome.

ok, did you unzip the vpt file and put it in your tables folder?

 

These tables are zipped into an archive file when they are uploaded to this site. you have to unzip it or copy the .vpt file into your tables folder.

The only thing i can think of is returning the computer to the factory settings or whatever and start all over again. Sighs.


yes i unzip the files and put them on the tables folder. Ok im still a bit confused about the leaving a file zipped or unzip them.


Unzip is when you run the files with the files showing or when you see a bunch of clored books tied up?

ok, sounds like you are using winrar. Which is fine. when you open the zip file it will open a screen with the vpt file inside. You can drag and drop the .vpt into the tables folder or you can click EXTRACT TO at the top. Find the tables folder and click ok. 

 Now close the winrar. Open your vp9.9.2 exe and then open the table from there. 

 

Tables get unzipped or unrared.

ROMS do not.

Get teamviewer and let one of us show you ... this shouldnt be that hard. I assume you are somewhat computer literate? No disrespect intended.

yes allknowing2012. I do have some knowledge on computers. I'm not a a computer wizard either. I know mostly the basic and maybe some more. And no disrespect, no harm done  :)  I'm willing to install that teamviewer program.But i don't know how good it will make since like i said before i CAN'T run any downloaded file. vp9.9.2 window opens up with an error in there. But it's a chance i can try!!


yes N3roflint, i can bet it's not that hard, i just need to follow the instructions and i'm there (hopefully).  :tup:


I will tell you all when i have TeamViewer installed. (Going to start now).


Well guys, i got TeamViewer installed. Let's rock!!
