Hi all, looking at this Steam sale and wanting to pick up some of the best tables to get started. Already got my eye on Addams Family, Twilight Zone and a few others. What are your top table recommendations?

Hey everyone, a while back when I set up Pinup Popper on my cabinet I somehow set the default DMD image for all tables in the menu screen to be the Pinup Popper logo. I can't for the life of me figure out how I turned that on and would like to turn if off so that I can see the full Apron/DMD screen of each table in the menu without the Pinup Popper logo overtop of it. Thanks!

The border that goes around my monitor is a wee bit too big and covers a bit around the edges of the monitor.

I know I can change the POV of tables to make it fit better, but looking for something a bit more global and can also help while in Windows itself. It is hard to navigate when the taskbar is hidden.

Hi all, I am having issues with my homebuilt vpin that my current consultant can't seem to solve and I wonder if you or someone you know is skilled enough to help me resolve these issues and get the system dialed in once and for all. Admittedly, these issues are persistent and seem immune from efforts to fix them, but some here have offered advice that makes me think I am not alone. Somehow, I am still stuck.

1. First, I am having issues where some, but not all games have sticky flippers. Frontier, Jokerz, Independence Day and a few others, I now forget. If I went through the tables one by one, I suspect I would find more than a couple others. This sucks as it makes some of my favorite tables unplayable. Yesterday, the consultant assigned keys to all of my controls in the pinone software and in pinup popper, future pinball, etc. I protested this because Phil at Cleveland Software said that to do so is to take a step backward from his current tech and to likely slow loading times. Initially the change helped me get a few tables working, but later the problem came back. Really frustrating.
2. I have an issue with Eight Ball Deluxe lighting random lights on the playfield. Of course, when my consultant looked at it yesterday it was working fine and I thought other changes he made might have helped. This issue is that on every ball, random lights are lit when they shouldn't be. This morning on ball 1 it was lighting special, 4x, two of the balls and three of the left orbit lights. As a guy who plays competitively on that machine in real life and wants to bring my friends over, it is a glaring failure that I would like to fix before my pin pals come by.
3. three of my pinone selonoids are not firing. I think this is likely a hardware issue, but in them meantime, I would like to just have other selonoids fire in their place. Is that possible? I would love to have some help.
4. I have way more machines than I want on the drive and would like to have pinup popper cleaned up and organized with just the games from VPX and their best. I am willing to completely remove future pinball, pinball fx, Zacharia and all of the home made games in VPX. Ideally I would like this machine to be as close to the real thing with the best of the real tables and excellent VPIN exclusives as possible. No offense to the creators, I just want to keep this machine tight and easy on guests.
5. The nudge settings in Pinone are set at their most sensitive, but they are still not sensitive enough. Is there a way to get more from this?

You may be thinking, why not just do it yourself. I ask myself the same thing, but if I was motivated enough to learn to do that, I would have done it by now.

Any experience consultants out there willing to remote in and help??

My Machine was an alibaba special, but I have since added a new computer to run 4k 120hz, a C5 display, the pinone board and selonoids, accelerometer, real plunger and SSF. I am using an equalizer to optimize the sound and am generally happy with it, but these issues are keeping me from feeling like it is locked down.

Curious when we'll see the hyper threaded update arrive. Anyone know anything?

Edit: official release please. I don't wanna throw my beloved hardware into chaos.

I can get a VPinMame table started on my PC in Visual Pinball, and the DMD window is running, but it is always hidden when the table is being displayed, and I can't get it to pop up on top of it so I can see it while I am playing.

Update: I turned off Cabinet Mode, and it appears to be working

Which type of virtual would
Be the best maybe in the $500-1000 range

I have an ultra VP 7.0 machine.

I have heard the super vpin software is very good but have never upgraded my unit. Now I just got an email about 3.1 software from RecRoomWorld.

As much as I would like to, I don't spend much time studying this stuff. I just want the best versions of a bunch of games so that my family and I can enjoy the machine to its fullest

What are anyone's thoughts about which software, if any, I should get?

​

I show 4 different ways to input high scores so your cool looking gameroom monitor or high score cards on your vpin have lots of different ways to keep it updated!

So much cool stuff in this video, honestly it is one of the best reasons to use Vpin Studio!

Recently got a atgames Micro HD pinball and after recommendations on single-table packs.

What are your favourite?

Im not concerned with PC for the time bieng. Just from the estore.

Hey everyone - I own several Stern machines but am looking to get a virtual table to allow for some variation. I have a fairly limited understanding of the virtual options, but know I want the ability to play machines offered via PUP Packs, and I'd also like for it to feel as close to the real thing as possible. Price doesn't really matter - looking for something that is ready to go as soon as its delivered.

Any recommendations on where and what to order?

Bonjour,

J’ai récemment acheté un pincab flipper et pinball fx3 dessus. Il est lié à un profil local steam. Je n’arrive donc pas à connecter le jeu en ligne afin de modifier le profil pour lier mon propre profil steam. Auriez vous une idée de comment y parvenir svp?
Merci pour votre aide.

I have all these ball & flipper upgrades that I’ve acquired by spinning the wheel. I can access them on the left wrist menu and I’m able to grab them but how do I apply them to the table I’m standing in front of? I’ve tried everything I can think of but they never appear on the table.
