Making tables in VPE will be MUCH easier than working with VPX. And this will be modern software with great capabilities. Maybe i install in the future FP just for this table.

Why are you talking like I don't understand what it takes to make my own games, or what FP, VPX, VPE are capable of. I know the process very well. No one wants to see VPE become the next step for virtual pinball more than me... and I'm very much following its progression and giving my own input to freezy as it develops. That said, it will still be a long time before it's in a complete state and ready for creators and players. In the meantime, FP-BAM (note the BAM part, which is required and important) is the only option that allows me to do what I want creatively and get the results I prefer technically.

 

Let's keep the discussion of this topic to MOTU CE on FP-BAM, please.

He just posted an amazing new pic 2 days ago.

If you think this table is great, then you should all check out all of his other tables that he has already released.

All are "top of the line" tables in my book.

WORK IN PROGRESS

 

New (last) feature: PSA Videos and finalized PUPDMD

 

==============================

 

OK... so here wo go. My FINAL feature added to MOTU CE! What else could the big bad world of grumpy boomer pinball players need? Why, authentic 80's PSA videos that's what!

 

You read that right. At the end of each game, you get to watch the original 80's MOTU "Life Lessons" videos to sort out your miserable existence and make you a nicer pinball player! You can skip the video instantly by holding both flippers... or you can disable the feature completely in TABLE OPTIONS in the table script. This feature is only allowed if you have the table's PuP-Pack installed, and the PUPDMD option enabled for PinEvent settings.

 

The PinEvent and PUPDMD display features are almost finalized!

 

Things are going well. Expect to see some more official Announcement and Trailers videos to come to my YT channel leading up to the table's release (most likely shortly before XMAS).

 

 

(these images were taken from a compressed video. The actual game looks much nicer and cleaner)

Masters of the Universe - Collector's Edition (Future Pinball)

 

WORK... NOT IN PROGRESS

 

After 18 months of working hard on this project, it's finally done! It's now in the final testing phase!

 

This is my first official reveal to the world on my YT channel as a teaser Announcement Trailer!

 

I've done lots of pinball stuff over the years... but nothing comes close to the sheer level of content, complexity, and skill that was involved with this one (until Silent Hill is done). Lots of learning along the way. I had to take many breaks (because of health issues), but I'm glad I finally made it!

 

I'm legit very proud of how this turned out!

EPIC Full Preview Trailer

 

Just when you thought the first teaser video was crazy enough.

 

This is the full preview for the new "Masters of the Universe - Collector's Edition" for Future Pinball - BAM. It showcases many of the new features, 16 new modes, and other parts of this massive all-new game. MOTU CE is virtual pinball at a scale like you've never seen before! I've worked extremely hard on this over 18 months, and I can't wait until its released later this month for EVERYONE to enjoy! For now, please enjoy this EPIC trailer!

VR, MR and Toppers Preview trailer

 

This video shows what options you have for VR (virtual reality), MR (mixed reality), and Toppers for the new Masters of the Universe - Collector's Edition game I've been creating (for Future Pinball - BAM).

 

You can have a Minimal Room (for less powerful PCs), a Mega Room (with massive and detailed MOTU models), and MR Room which has multiple colour options to work with your VR/MR headset (such as the Meta Quest 3 using Virtual Desktop).

 

The topper options are either Granamyr the Great (giant dragon) or Skeletor's  Bone Throne. Either of these options can be either a topper, or they can be in the Mega Room.

 

This table's new ray traced pre-baked lighting and shadows combined with FP's dynamic lighting / ray cast shadows / shadowmaps, etc... creates a stunning visual spectacle like no other in VR! Videos can't do it justice compared to playing it for yourself in VR.

 

VR does require a powerful PC to get great results and smooth gameplay. The PC used in this video was an i5 13600K with RTX 4070 Ti Super, running in Virtual Desktop using Godlike settings and 90 fps (if using supersampling, then I use 72 fps). This is with maxed settings on FP. Disabling Raycast shadows, reflections, the mega room and toppers can help with fps on slower PCs.

Amazing terry, well done

CHOOSE YOUR FACTION, CHOOSE YOUR CHARACTER

 

This video shows you how each player is required to choose a faction and then choose a character. In a 3 player game, player one gets to choose from all factions, player two gets to choose from the remaining two, then player three gets the last faction. The playfield will change appearance for each player's turn based on their faction. The holographic mirror and the PUP FullDMD display will show the character of the current player and more. This can make for a fun multiplayer game where only one faction can be the winner! Results of the winning faction are shown during Attract Mode. This will be released later this month, and then EVERYONE can choose their favorites while striving to become the Master of the Universe!
