It would be great if you could make this table for VP9. If it was available for Windows XP, why not make it for VP9? Please, that would be great. Not everyone can have a pinball machine with VPX.   :Worship:  :unsure:  :hi:

I'm sorry, but I won't do that. It is just too much work to do it in VP9. For Windows XP you can still play the original game :)

I'll try, although I doubt it will work. I'm using a computer that runs vp9.2, I think, because the original program that comes with Space Cadet is called Full Tilt! and it doesn't allow you to put it in cabinet mode. Sad, because since it's Windows XP, I didn't think it would be so complicated to have it for vp9, but you get the idea.  :(

maybe you can mod it, make a cabinet friendly version, and upload it so more people can play the original game in a cabinet. or maybe someone has already done that, i heard there are some cabinet conversions of old pc pinball games

Best thing to do is just to try the VPX version; JP's tables have a very low 'footprint' (sometimes less than 10MB) and should be able to run on low spec hardware.

In my case, I'm using a 2011 PC built with 2010 era CPU, motherboard, RAM and HDD and a 2015 era GPU:

- Intel Core i7 2600K

- 8GB DDR3-1600

- AMD Radeon R9 380 4GB

Using a 1280x960 resolution I can run almost all VPX tables fluidly with frame pacing at 85 FPS, including the multi megabyte recreations from VPinball Workshop.

sii , aca es complicado encontrar cpu a bajo precio de este tipo, aunque sean cpu viejas, pero bueno, vere que puedo hacer, full tilt deberia hacer una remasterizacion y sacar denuevo las mesas que tenia en ese tiempo, pero bueno, un hombre puede soñar, se agradece a todas las respuestas, muchas muchas gracias

Ahem.

I know, I know... This was more one of those "let's see if it can be done" ideas, rather than being actually fun to play. But still, it works! The keys were redefined with AutoHotKey, the DMD background and the backglass are just static images, and the score is copied to the DMD from the playfield via FlexDMD.

Something is weird here, on visual pinball on the table, while im playing it, the Full Flippers are not moving, the Red Parts are, but not the White Top Parts of the flippers . any idea why it is?

The table requires VPX8, with lower versions some functions do not work.
