How to use the Media pack (for PinballX) ?

You need to name each item the same as the table name and then put them into the correct pinball x folders. For example, and assuming you're on VPX, if you were doing the wheel image: find your vpx table file in the visual pinball tables folder and right click on it and select rename so the table name is highlighted in blue, then press ctrl and c to copy the table name. Close down your tables folder and go to the wheel image you want to use and right click on its name and select rename so it highlights blue and press ctrl and V to rename the wheel file. Then go to your pinball x folder and navigate to pinballx/media/visual pinball/wheel images and place the renamed wheel image there. when you next launch pinball x it will just use that wheel image in the front end. Then you just need to do the same for all the other media files you want to use putting them into the correct pinball x folder. Remember that you cant have more than one file with the same name in a folder, so you cant rename the backglass image and wheel image if they are in the same folder. Im sure there are other quicker and easier ways to do this but this works for me and if like me you are only doing an odd table every now and then its not an issue. There are some really good videos on you tube showing this as well.

Hope this helps.
