To be able to work with other compression formats than zip, like rar and 7z, you’ll need additional software. Navigate to the intended place (=destination folder) and validate the action.Īlternatively you can just drag&drop single, multiple or all files from the opened source (=zip file folder) window to the target (= destination folder) window instead of the copy procedure described before. Mark the file(s) you wish to extract and choose the 'Copy' command from the left hand side menu. Just start Windows Explorer, navigate to the zip file and double-click on it to see its content in a new window. A complete guide to file (de)compression would exceed the intent of this tutorial, but Windows contains the functionality to extract zip files without any additional software. In order to save disk space and download time, all tables for Visual Pinball (and Future Pinball as well) come as zip or rar files which have to be uncompressed. If you don't see files with their extensions when you open a folder on your harddisk, consider to adapt your system setup accordingly. You don't have to know their meaning, but your Windows should be configured to display these extensions after the file name, separated by a dot, e. We will refer to files with extensions like 'exe' or 'vbs'. We presume that you have some basic knowledge of the Microsoft Windows operating system, like how to create folders and subfolders and how to access them, how to copy files or how to extract a zip file (or part of it) to a folder. We'll cover the basic configuration of VP and VPM and provide tips & tricks and solutions to common problems, once the installation is done. The procedures we describe here are not that complicated, but you need to read carefully, take your time and follow each step for a successful installation. This setup is beyond the scope of this tutorial, so if that's what you want, please refer to the Setup Guide for VP9 / HP / UltraVP / DMD by Tweegster, Visual Pinball for Yummies by Tweegster / Godsin, covered by FlyingDutchman, and the Installation Support here at VPForums. In this case the right hand (shorter) side of the monitor is the front of the pinball table, before you rotate it. Sections at VPForums (or from other sites).īesides the desktop tables, VPForums also hosts 'Spanned', 'Full-Size ( FS)' or 'Cabinet (Cab)' tables, which require a 90 deg clockwise rotated 16:9 monitor and maybe even multiple monitors. 'Visual Pinball Tables -> VP8/ VP9 Desktop Tables' and This tutorial only covers a setup of VP8, VP9 and VPX (different versions of Visual Pinball) for a single 'normal'-oriented 4:3 or 16:9 sized monitor, so that the bottom edge of the monitor is the front of the pinball table. Welcome to and the world of Visual Pinball! This Installation Guide will give step-by-step installation and setup instructions for the 'Visual Pinball' and 'Visual PinMAME' software packages on a computer running Windows 7 and later. Visual Pinball ( VP) & Visual PinMAME ( VPM) Installation & Setup Guide (IG) Also, it may not be the case with your kit, but with the VirtuaPin kit it is recommended NOT to use the windows or DIView calibrations as the kit supposedly auto calibrates.Available languages (partly under construction!): The other thing that helped somewhat was ensuring the controller board was perfectly level when installed. I'm thinking that maybe the electronic circuits have excessive noise or there is electrical interference from elsewhere in the cabinet, which makes them less accurate with small nudge values, but electronics isn't my area of expertise (not that I have any areas. These kits all seem to use the KL25Z microcontroller board. But when in the cabinet where the actual force of the nudge is reduced (but offset with the X-Gain sensitivity setting increased in Visual Pinball), the nudging isn't as balanced. Kit seems to work fine out of the cabinet where you can give a bigger nudge. Haven't solved the problem completely as the ball still nudges further in one direction than the other, but found that mounting it as close to the front and top of the cabinet as possible gave the best results. I have similar issues with a VirtuaPin Plunger Kit MkII.
