Do I need to do the same with the global physics in physmod5 as well? If so I have missed that part.

I tested some of these out in physmod5. It looks like some table adjustments would have to be made in order to work (angles/curves on ramps, size of gates, etc.)

Stick with the physmod2. Most work very well there.

WOW, thanks for sharing! Quite a few duplicates on your list, any difference?

[freneticamnesic]

Unless you're comfortable doing the conversion yourself, stick with using pm2 and pm5 separately. If you've already set yourself up for 2 VP exes, use 3! It's not so bad..............

I guess the ones at the top would be updates based on post date if there are dupes.

For my tables, I set a lot to use a global physics profile thinking I could just modify that as I was testing and it would apply to all tables. This turned out not to be a reality. But if you don't have the profile the table will crash on start. Even for physmod5. The reason I stayed on 2 was that most tables had a lot of extra bugs to get worked out on 5. Balls getting stuck again, ramps that couldnt be made, etc. I already did all this on physmod2 and wasn't about to redo and test again for 5 when there's little or no noticable difference between the two versions.

Thanks BigBoss...Meanwhile I will surely use some of them while waiting for vp10 version  

[striggell]

Thanks Big Boss - Just made my morning seeing a physmod Starship Troopers on that list.

While the amount of work put into this is admirable, I don't recall being asked permission for you to release a mod of my High Speed recreation so I would kindly ask that it be removed.

 

Thank you.

I'm with Kruge99 here. I also don't recall being asked permission for you to release a mod of the tables I worked on. Can you please remove them.

[freneticamnesic]

That's disappointing to hear.

[KingofMetal79]

Evening,

Quick question re. Physmod 5: I am presently trying to get Physmod 5 up and running in my cab along with some of the excellent sounding Physmod 5 tables. However, while I run VP 9.9 and Physmod 2 without any problems whatsoever when I run any of the Physmod 5 tables there seems to be some sort of input delay (occasionally there is massive lag between flipper button being pressed and the flipper moving and also delay in plunger firing after pressing the launch button) as well as flippers sticking open - basically making it nigh on unplayable. That said the rest of table seems to play fine and the ball is stutter free. Therefore anyone know what might be causing my delay/lag issues?

 

Cheers

[goesta]

Is this really a Mod, we talk about??

[kruge99]

In my humble opinion, the physmod branch of Visual Pinball is somewhere between the alpha and beta stage.  The purpose of this physics mod was to showcase and test some new physics based features that would be available in the upcoming VP10 but it seems there are a few anxious individuals who like it too much in my humble opinion.  I prefer to wait for VP10 rather than toil over unfinished and as some have found out, buggy software.  I'm not saying to stay away from the physmod vp, I'm saying it should only be used by individuals who are experienced enough to work through the bugs and not bother the devs working on VP10 with requests for bug fixes to an unofficial software version that will eventually be replaced by VP10. 

 

I also don't see the logic in modding every single VP9.x table to work with the physmod branch - it seems like a lot of effort was spent modding tables that will have to be done all over again, from scratch, when VP10 comes out.  I can't wait for VP10 to come out so I can have a go at recreating High Speed from scratch again.  I might even send out my dead hard drive to a recovery service to recover all the artwork I created for High Speed.

[The Loafer]

The logic is that for some, the difference between vp9 physics and Physmod physics are so great, vp9 standard physics in most tables have become a lot less fun to use.

[faralos]

please people remember to ASK permission first before posting modded tables

 obviously not everyone likes their tables to be redone by someone else

 while some of us allow the pins to be modded not everyone does

 and to keep on being nice to everyone please remove the pins the previous posts asked to be taken down

personally I'd be thrilled to have a pin that is so good it gets modded

apparently not everyone shares my feelings

I think it makes sense that a lot of people test this enough up-front and bring up all the issues.

Due to this some stuff has been fixed meanwhile in VP10 and there are some mild extensions, but in principle VP10 still features the same physics code as in PM5.

Agree 100%, physmod branch needs to be tested in order for VP10 to be a successful release, but shouldn't it be tested by experienced visual pinball contributors?

 

However the thread topic specifically asked if physmod5 is ready for general use.  Why do you think this question came up?  Probably due to all of the modded tables appearing in various threads which seems to be giving the standard end user the impression that physmod5 and it's respective previous incarnations that it's a 'released' product, when it's not. 

 

My message isn't intended to force people not to test, it's to recommend to the standard user to use the released versions of Visual Pinball and let the devs make VP10 the best it can possibly be.

[toxie]

Yeah, that's true. But i guess there is no way back anymore. PM5 is out there and too many people already use it.

And making an official release is also kinda bad, as its not completely 100% finished in this incarnation.  :/
