Analog999 - I have my Sidewinder mounted like yours. I'm testing on JP's Attack From Mars table. I have checked the PBW Accelerometer box (do I check the Normal Mounting as well?). When I go into Windows Control Panel and Devices, I can nudge the table and see it move around on the test screen but when I start the table it won't register anything. I was reading your earlier post about setting it to 8-way and the triangles, etc. Where are those settings? Anything else in VP that I need to change?

i would like to know this as well. i believe you have to change the jolt amount or something.

Just tried another table, South Park, and if I hold the ball on a flipper and nudge the table I can see the ball bounce back and forth. I still can't tilt it though, no matter how hard I shake it. I did add in Blur's core.vbs file a few weeks ago. Maybe I will go bakc to the original and see if that makes a difference.

Guys

 

I am about to install everything into my cabinet and have a sidewinder free style pro.  Has anyone had anymore experience in setting one up through VP?

I'm also interested in this.

Also, does anyone know if the USB adapter is a requirement for VP (because it can only operate with USB devices) or would it work if the sidewinder is plugged into a sound card's game port?

i would guess that it should work either way, otherwise it's a bug in VP..
