Hello to everyone!
Im from Athens, Greece and I grew up with pinball machines, I really love them all.
But it is so difficult to understand how to install correctly the Visual Pinball and the tables and all these files, that it makes my head hurt! And my heart!
I can't understand the tutorials since my english is not that fluent so I stuck and can't make it work. Please, is there any willing soul here that can help me play my beloved pinballs from my youth? Thanks in advance, Dimitris.

Hi Dimitris

 

Go to github and download full setup for VPX 10.80 - 2051 release

 

https://github.com/v...inball/releases

A folder structure must be this way:

 

C:\visual pinball\tables\ *.vpx

                         \music\folders or *mp3,ogg etc

                         \vpinmame\ roms

                         \ and so on...

 

Maybe you will need to download the last Vpinmame, Pinmame32, Pinmame version also from github. download both 32 and 64 bit. I use SC version.

But, you ca try main download fullsetup

 

https://github.com/v...inmame/releases

 

Unzip it and put all inside vipinmame folder. Don´t worrry overwrite 64 over 32 bits if was the case.

These are the first steps.

 

There are others ways with baller installer but I didn´t use it anytime.

Remember to do not install the 10.8.1 as that may give more headaches than you need :) 10.8.1 is very early beta, well, it is not even beta, is alpha :)

 

Download the full VPX8 install, as Emmanoel29 said, which includes everything you need. and that's the file called Main.Download.Installer.-.VPX8setup.exe
