You should add this in the video description section, took me a while to find it here in the comments.

In your tutorial guide (which is awesome) you have zip files 1-14 but in the file downloaded from above there is an additional 3 files. 15 - Visual-C..., My ball images...and popper launch scripts.... Do i need to install them in any certain way? Thanks for great video

@NiklasGyllenstierna if you have past the baller part you can look at my updated update guide..

Thank you. Everything works great. I only use the desktop variant with two monitors and everything works perfectly. Even when I turned on the Star Track POV it was perfect. I didn't have to adjust the POV. I left that one. I had an error during the installation of Flex DMD (for you, the first two options are ticked green, and the last two are red, and for me the first one is red, and all the others are green). But when I turned it on everything works, including b2s and DMD and pinball of course. I've only been playing VP for a month and managed to bug it and break it last night after weeks and weeks of learning and setting it up, and now I've set it up again from scratch. Now I don't touch anything anymore, nor will I update anymore or anything. I wasted more time setting this up than I did playing. But it was worth it :)

Glad it helped you!

Good glad you enjoying playing again!

Let me know how it goes..

right click on the taskbar on the main screen then go to options and turn it off for other screens.

No problem hope it helped..

Now use the next video 32 bit to 64bit. It will add auto updater to help keep you up to date if you are on baller install. Or just goto nailbusters wiki and download the latest popper update. www.nailbuster.com/updatesv15/PinUP_System_v1_5_Beta7.zip

Thanks and let me know how it goes.

@@rudysarcade Super easy to follow, got everything working. Only issue I haven't resolved yet is Police Force when launched from popper looks zoomed in. It does not look like what I saved when I launched and edited the POV in VPX GL.

@revraccrypto300 you need to setup altlaunch in popper. It is in the video.. also make sure no pov file in the tables folder for it.

@@rudysarcade I setup the alt launch in popper, maybe I missed something there. I will also check for tables folder. Thanks for your quick reply and your great videos!

@@rudysarcade .pov file was the issue. Don't know how I created it but removed it and it looks perfect!! Many thanks.

You can definitely watch this to learn alot of stuff but if you are starting fresh go to my 2024 video and grab the latest baller_installer and run it. It has a built-in updater and you won't have to do all my update files. Those or more for people already setup on an older build and don't want to start over.

Thank you and yes if go to the 2nd part going over future pinball and popper I have the full c+ update in my files download. Maybe I can add them to this one also.

Look on nailbusters wiki has all the information

I have a quest 2 and I have been meaning to get time to test it out. I had back surgery 2 weeks ago and just now getting around good so I might test it out soon. :)

If you doing a fresh install just get the new baller installer in my 2024 video. It includes everything and an updater

@@rudysarcade perfect, thank you

Use the popper media manager to add it

@@rudysarcade Thanks so much for the fast reply!!! Was there a section of the video where you show how to do that? BTW I used your "2024 VP never been easier" video and it was smooth as butter to install everything!!!!

Also 1hr 6min starts popper media section

@@rudysarcade that worked great. Is there a way remove and add a new images in pinup media manager of you want to use new/different images? Also when I add blank screen, then a full screen to my playfield (3) in media manager, my load screen is not full screen. Basically the load video is there, but blank at the bottom third of the screen. Have you ever seen that?

This installs FP and bam but you will need to update bam and use Terry's config files. FX2 and 3 are all on nailbusters website and you just install them on steam. I might do a video to help set it up. I will see how this video does first. Thanks for the comment

Thank you hope it helped

You don't play 1700 tables and the longer your in this hobby you learn not to just collect and use only what you play. It takes a good PC to play all the new stuff so if you have an older pc and old video card then I would wait till you get a new system. As for the setup you can only use the table, backglass, and roms. It will take a lot to get 1700 tables setup. I would make a new setup and pick your favorite 300 lol

@rudysarcade my favorites folder has 883 tables in it lol, I can't just pick 300. I play most of the tables I have, might have to get rid of some older tables, just love collecting them and tinkering 😁

If you are updating then yes these are new files. If you are starting fresh then no need for all of these. Though the video has a lot of helpful information. Follow the 2024 pinball video to install the latest baller installer with built in updater

Thanks Rudy

No do not rotate the monitor

dont hide the task bar and turn it off on the other screens

I use OBS to.stream and record

Live Streaming sounds cool. - Thank you 😀

Tried it out, but streaming means only to some plattforms. - Searching a tool to stream to my iMac or PC which shows all three monitors together, or choseable with shortkeys. - Using Spacedesk at the moment, but changing the resolution is only possible with 25pct tasks.

@markusbrunner8991 you can check out my tiktok I live stream there plus a lot of videos. www.tiktok.com/@rudysarcade?_t=8g4VpUWtmZf&_r=1

No I don't sale or support any kind of loaded drives as it takes 100s of hrs to make 1 table. The least people can do is download it from the authors and give a like and comment. But what I can do is I hold remote vpin classes on Saturdays. 2hrs $100 I can do your baller install and update and show you how to add tables and media and answer any questions you may have. Can also join the Facebook group and my discord for better support.

Thank you for the quick response. I work weekends do you offer classes on Tuesdays or Wednesdays?

@bmontano71 sorry mon thur I work 6am- 6pm

I work 6:30a to 7p F,S,SN. I guess i will try and follow that awesome video. I’m hoping to get to the point where i can play an old table i use to play back when i was a kid. It was at the local Round Table pizza place. They had a NFL N.Y. JETS pinball table and a Creature from the Black Lagoon table. Ok 👍 thank you for the video and the quick response to my questions. Thanks, Bryant

If you use puppacks some use all 3 to add layers.

@@rudysarcade Oh thankyou. Then I asume I will have to run "PinUpPlayerConfigDisplays" another time to configure Music and DMD 4:1 ??? In the baller installer after the display config, you press an "Apply display settings to all apps" button. If I run the "PinUpPlayerConfigDisplays" I will not be able to press this button, do that matters? thankyou rudy !!!

@@zzgus no you only need the pup screens moved.

FP has great options for visuals but the program is 20 years old and out of development. Takes to long to load tables and while they are great to look at and show people they will never play as good as VPX and it just keeps getting better and updated every day. The first table I ever created was Legend of Zelda in FP. It is a great app for beginners.

Right click the backglass and set form to back.. make sure in the dmddevice.ini it has the dmd stays on top

Yes system memory

Check your dmddevice.ini in the vpinmame folder. You can open it with notepad and remove the location numbers x and y and close and save it. It should put it on the playfield so you can drag and size it again

That is for external dmd. Are you using baller installer? If so you need to use the latest beta version. Check our my baller video V2

@@rudysarcade no. I selected single monitor for the time being. Is that the reason? Thank you for your response.

yes you dont have to be online but it sure does help make things easier.

It comes in my update files already hit f1 make sure it's enabled

@@rudysarcade Ah ok thank you. I actually didn't do that update. I did the complete baller beta bonanza install on 12/18/23 to a fresh Windows 10 system. Do I still need to do anything further after that install? Thanks.

@mjsmith1972 no just enable color in vpinmame

Need to update everything including popper. Need to make sure all plugins and plugins64 with b2s is working. Make sure pinup is enabled in the dmddevice.ini make sure flexdmdui is setup and enabled

Just pick 2 screen then in vpx click desktop mode

@@rudysarcade thanks, that works. And another questions, as Im using desktop mode, all my loading videos in pinup popper are playing turned 90deg, like for cabinet mode.

@maciektra right click them in the media manager box and you can rotate them

No.. but you will need to run the popper screen configuration to set popper screens then run b2sscreenreidentifier to set b2s screens, then run vpx video settings on 10.7 and 10.8 to set those. And all dmd screens will need to be moved and sized to the new location

Vpmalias is only for using a different file for a rom . Has nothing to do with altsound.. Altsound you just put in the altsound folder and when you run the table hit F1 and turn on altsound.

@@rudysarcade ok. So that step with the vpm alias thing WAS something u need to do to finish making the pup pack work?

@joshmckinley2953 no that was cause I wanted 2 tables with the same rom to work 1 with backglass and 1 with puppack.

@rudysarcade if u would be so kind as to maybe get around to a scratch tutorial on setting up stranger things 4 pup table, that would be incredible! Lol since no videos of the table exist on KZfaq that aren't just demos.

@@joshmckinley2953 if you set your all your pup screens like in my video. All you do is put the puppack in the pupvideos table. And play the table

@@cliffwolfe that's if you have dof and want to update it to 64... really should use my 2024 video and do the latest baller beta with built in updater

you just past it 35:45

@@rudysarcade yup, totally missed that step. thanks!

No idea what you are doing best start from scratch and follow the video 100% don't skip steps or files

If you want the video to show up full screen it needs a blank behind it, something in the program.

Sorry I don't use that stuff. As for the filed just take the 32bit doff configuration files someone said 3 files but I don't know but you add them to the dof folder in the plugins64

No it's only the updated ones. Not sure what roms changed.

@@rudysarcade copy. I was unable to find the corresponding tables for a few of them; but it was great that you included them in case I run across Updates in the future for vp10. I have had to become quite a copy and paster to make some things work :) very trial and error for sure but for the most part almost all the tables from 7.2 forward have worked pretty well without much fuss. It’s the dang PUPs that give me so much grief ;)

@thepacketnarc7634 there is really nothing to do for puppacks. You put it in the video folders then click the batch file that you want if it comes with options. If not just put it in the folder and play. If they don't play it's because something else is not updated or set right.

@@rudysarcade Yes correct; I was more speaking in terms of 'many' Pups having only a 3 screen mode or 'FullDMD' mode where you kind have to d1ck with it, set the form to back, bring the flexDMD forward and resize it to 'sort of look right'.. All in all it's straight forward but it isn't for the faint of heart to try and modify one that isn't set out of the box for 2 screen only.

You should run the newest baller beta if you are starting fresh .just set everything on 1 screen

Do I need anything else from your files? And can I follow along with your tutorial?

@@Dustin.Orrick watch some newer videos. The new baller_installer comes with an auto updater now. It will keep all files updated for you. You won't need my files.

Oh wow! Ok thank you so much! I appreciate it!

Probably about 3k

This has 64bit directoutput included in the plugins64 folder you just need to set it up just like you did for 32bit directoutput. Sorry as I don't do dof I can't show you how to set it up plus everyone's setup is different.

@@rudysarcade gotcha. I think the setup is generally the same with the r3 installer, just the DOF config file is different. I’m doing fresh rebuild of 32 bit 10.7 setup. I’ll watch smaugs upgrade instructions maybe. I’m not sure where to put 32 bit version or if needed

you didn't read the notes on the updated files. I deleted some files that were reduntant. only txt files and stuff not needed,

@@rudysarcade Phew ok great! Apologies I did skip around a bit as I already have a full install, was mainly doing this for color dmds which I finally have working thx to this video, much appreciated for your help!

@djdfrag I have just an update video also.. make sure you don't have any old serum files in the vpinmame folder..

Does the table play? If so try alt tab and see where the dmd is. If you did the ballerinstaller you should have set the dmd's location.. If you are new and starting fresh do the new 2024 install video with the latest baller_installer beta. It has everything built in and no need to manually update files anymore.

No your system must already be updated and on 64bit. You need to have everything updated and working then you can add it and it will keep you updated

1 screen need to play in window mode. Also run the b2s screenres identifier in the tables folder to set the backglass screen

@rudysarcade awesome, I'll give it a try. Thank you

@@rudysarcadeI tried and couldnt fix anything. I am fairly new to all this and its a tad confusing.

Not sure I follow you. Did you play a table? Play the actual game and see how it does. Also you don't want vpinmame dmd and external dmd both on. If you did the vpinmame setup make sure show dmd not checked.

I'm sorry, maybe I explained myself badly I start a table, play and until then everything is ok when I close the game it crashes and the black ntutyo dmd remains I'll start by saying that I did a new installation from scratch

@@rudysarcade A thousand thanks I'll write to you tomorrow

open the editor then click preferences then video and on the left side make sure view mode is cabinet. if you on 10.7 samething except on the left side check use always FS backdrop

@@rudysarcade 10.7 is correct in cabinet mode everything looks good on there but when I do 10.8 and change the cabinet mode on the left side it put the image the other direction but still sideways on the screen

I'm wondering if I should reinstall my windows it's an older installation it's up to date though Windows 10 pro with a 1070 at 16 gigs of memory

@michaelwhited5649 oh yea if you followed the video you will see that is natural because that table was saved in the old vp10 beta need to reset the table.

@michaelwhited5649 you didn't watch the video.. go to 1hr 34min in

Need to check your windows sound settings, vpx settings for 10.7 and 10.8, also vpinmame settings make sure altsound not checked. Adjust the rom volume.. also check vpinmame volume with the + and - keys on the keyboard.

If you are starting fresh watch my 2024 video and grab the latest baller_installer. Super easy and comes with a built in updater.

@@rudysarcade did that!. have a few tables up and running how want them now in a 3 screen setup (3rd screen is a 7" tablet for the dmd).. slowly learning. Loving it. The Stranger Things one is awesome. That's just one, there a re so many amazing creations there! Have an issue with TWD though, randomly after a ball lost it will just totally lags, like the dmd will go to 1 fps and takes forever to release a new ball. Not sure if I missed something? Maybe wrong version or something? Have updated VPX64 to 10.8

@@Punkologist yea walking Dead must be played in 32bit

ahh that probabaly explains it I have been running it on 64bit. thanks! I'm a .Net dev.. I'm considering looking into building some sort of table installer program. Where you could choose PupPack options etc, and it would automatically put all the files in the right place. You would just have to tell it where the various files you have downloaded are and which emu to launch with. Just discovered all this a week or so ago an I'm hooked! I have hardly even played them, just enjoying setting them up.

@DanielMitchellPunkologist there is really nothing to do. Put the puppack in the folder and click what bat file you want. Then play the table. No need for another program. Puppacks and tables only go in 1 place

Not sure I understand you. What do you mean dissappear? You try alt tab see if you see it? What table What rom? Did you set your location in the dmddevice.ini? Need a little more info. If you are doing a fresh system you should use the new beta baller_installer from Nailbuster.

when i get to the last step of your install. when i look in visual folder the vpinmame is not there or roms@@rudysarcade

@nickmahoney3293 you must install ballerinstaller first it's there. It's just called setup.exe.. as for roms you need to download them. Does not come with roms except the few I have in my package

Yes I understand that with the rooms being separate. The rom package you set up in the video. I did exactly what you did putting everything in folders. The last step with the recordings. I did that step. When I went back the vpinmame file is gone. This happened twice. Did your install 2 times same result. I have baller installed. Had it before. Don't even see the setup.exe. either OK

@nickmahoney3293 it's in the vpinmame folder. Files can't just go away. Maybe you have windows blocking it
