Thanks JP and Christian!

Hi,

 

the file is not broken, you must use VPX8 Revision 2051, with this emulator the game plays flawless.

Hi JP. The game looks very beautiful, but I'm very disappointed that you did not design it to enable the flippers to work on VPX 10.74, like a lot of the other games you made in 10.8 that still let the filppers work in 10.74.

There are a lot of us out there with 3 screen tables that are still running 10.74 because of all the games we have on the table that work great, and will not work so well on 10.8.

But thank you anyway and I am a BIG admirer of ALL your work!!!!

@mikeypin6
And why you don't simply install/use two Versions of Vpx??
IS it so difficult? NO!
Every of the Common frontends can handle this.
And with Jarr3's excellent vpinball.starter app it's even easier.
So don't complain about Things which are simple to solve.
I have Tables of VP9x, vpx.7 and vpx.8, in x32 and x64 smoothly coexistent in my Cab.
So you can do this, too.

Digitalarts, because it's not as easy as you say.  There has to be the 64 bit modifications added which is a BIG deal to do - not as easy as you say.  You just can't add another VPX and leave the 32 bit alone without adding the 64 bit modifications.  I have been studying this problem for almost 2 years now and can't find an easy way to do this without potentially destroying the tables ability to play the 300 10.7 games i have... . Then I have to start over again.  I also have no one to help me,.,.over the years a few good souls out there have "taken pity on me" and walked me through getting the table working...but in trying to get help to actually do this multi VPX setup no one has spent much time with me on the forums (not that they have to) and they oversimplify the process. I'm still happy to have my existing tables working and someday will do the 10.8 upgrade....

If you could point me to the app from Jarr3's I would love to take a look at it!

Thanks,

Mike

Digitalarts, thank you very much for the links to the vpstarter code. I still would have to do the VPX8 installation and mod's before this. I think I am going to clone my existing SSD to an new one, reset windows to new, then install the new baller installer for a complete VPX8 installation. Then install VPX10.74 as an alternate launcher, then reinstall the tables. This way I will have my original working table on another SSD in case I mess up the VPX8 install, and will have plenty of time to get both systems working.

Is this really 1 ball per game when it says 5? Great table by the way.

You can adjust balls per game with F12 settings.

The table needs VPX8. If you run an older VPX8 beta or VPX7 then this table will not work fine.
