what is the differents?

[allknowing2012]

UVP is old and not needed anymore ... use directb2s. :-)

Anyone can create a .directb2s file all you need is the designer and a good pic - nobody knows how to create UVP. Okay maybe 1 or  2 folks do.

b2s designer to make direct B2s files and yes they work with both vp9 and vpx.  run  b2s in exe mode if you experience any stutter

[allknowing2012]

If you installed VPX with the all in one installer the b2s server would have been installed at that time. If you didnt then take a look here

http://www.vpforums....hl=+b2s +server

and install the b2s server software. This sofware will start the backglass and such when the table calls it. Note that older vp9 tables may require some minor script edits to turnon the backglass or perhaps a edit of a file to make your backglass preference.

 

Note that many of the vp9 tables were created prior to having this piece of software available - so that is why you need to make these minor edits yourself.

pfff not realy easy.... if I try everthing with VP, without the front_end  everthing works fine.... if I try it with PinballX then the backglass is black.... what can be te problem?

[allknowing2012]
