I believe I'm at the final stages of setup. I've read the Dummies (Yummies) books, watched the video tutorials and have most of it down. I've been able to play both non-ROM and ROM games. I've been able to get every table but one to run (The Goonies, which opens and closes without an error message). So far, mostly good.

I downloaded and installed All-In-One (Almost)." Do I still need to install the font? I noticed it was missing from the description, but I haven't noticed any issues while playing.

 

I've been placing the music in its designated folder in the VPinball/Music folder, do I also need to add them in the PinMame Wave folder? I'm not certain where to put media packs. Most of the images seem to be more promotional than functional.

 

After working on pinball machines for 10 years, it is an absolute joy to be able to play and not worry about burned out solenoids or stuck plungers.
​
​[Edit] Figured out why I can't play Goonies, PinUPSystem. I will work on that later.

Media Packs - only for usage with Frontends.
So when you click/scroll/slide... through your table collection, for every table a preview (playfield,backglass,DMD) static or animated, with sound effects or without, will be shown

Vpinmame wave - long time obsolete
Vpinmame uses now integrated sounds directly out of the Roms.
Or alternative Sounds with "altsound" packages

Fonts are included and installed with the VPX All-In-One Installer.
