Works fine,but UW.s Alien Poker looks ridiculous with it.I can only see oversized upper playfield and no backglass at all.

Nice

That's because in rev443, the table is now able to be resized and moved with 0 rotation instead of requiring 360 rotation... On this particular table, it is using the X/Y scale and X/Y Offset of the FS table with the rotation changed to 0 from 270 (along with Inclination and Field of View as well). Previous to rev443, setting the rotation to 0 essentially disregarded any changes to the scale and offsets input into the backdrop settings, so if you open the table, change the X/Y Scales to 1 and the X/Y Offsets to 0, it will change it back to how it would appear before rev443

That's good to know No more 360 degrees

Does the full installer include the core scripting files and pinMAME?

Nope.You must download PinMAME and VBS scripts by clicking first Getting Started and you'll find'em there.

Hmm, I guess I have a different definition of what a "full" installer is. Add those 2 I mentioned, and that means less working with a getting started guide.

Yeah, your installer idea is a disk drive image which includes windows too.  Or just wait for Phoenix's or Noah's new 'installer package' they work on.

This is the full installer for visual pinball, which includes everything you need to run visual pinball.  As you do not need vbs scripts, pinmame, roms, or other plugin accessories to run visual pinball, they are not included in this.  Why?  It's always been this way, 2- visual pinmame is a separate program with its own licensing terms, and they are released at different times so why include extra copies of programs you might already have rather than just the latest copy of this single program?  I dunno.

xllnt gentlemen,

nice program mod to have the "backdrop" image size the XY scales for FS.

i like it.

 

i have a Q.

been using 91x minimul.

i created a folder on desktop then extracted the zipped 915full install to the created folder on desktop.

why is there "scripts, user and doc" folders and no music/samples/Nvram/roms folders etc... when the VP103 and 3 click have all the folders.

then i had to open "setup" to get the silver ball.

i just want to install the 91x silver ball to C/program/files/pinball then send the shortcut to desktop.

what is the purpose of full install when the VPinstallers have all the folders?

I meant no disrespect. With Visual pinMAME, I can't think of any other programs it would be used with, so it would seem logical(all licensing differences aside) to bundle them together. With the vbs scripts, it wouldn't hurt to include them. There's many people who have trouble somewhere in the steps of the installer guide, where it could easily be automated. Differing release times wouldn't be an issue, as there aren't daily updates of the program like Steam, etc. Sounds like the installer packages Noah or Phoenix are working on would save a lot of steps for new users.  As for the drive image, well, it would be good for WIndows 8 users.

The ball becomes oval with the X / Y scale not equal , and the rotation to 0.
You must enable "Don't stretch the Ball" in the video options and ball back round.

Thanks again

I have a question regarding Visual Pinball in general: When was the first Full Screen pinball table for cabinet use? I ask because the Visual Pinball 1 tables I have seem to all be Wide Screen tables made for a desktop.

[32assassin]

2009

spanned tables

you will need a front end that no longer exists (I believe it cost money)    to place the backglass image in the correct monitor and run the table in FS.

 

 

if you are still using VP version 1  you will need to upgrade to at least version 8 to be able to rotate your tables from desktop to FS view.

[TouchMaster97]

So anything made for Visual Pinball 1 through 7 are either Wide Screen or Spanned using older programs to work on a cabinet, have I got that right?
