![]() ![]() recreation of real tables are done via emulation so you get all the ruleset, sound, etc that emulation brings. The extra modes which include neat animations is very cool (and can be turned off at a press of a button while you play). Engine reflects the commercial roots well. Physics on latest versions for Williams tables are REALLY good. Strength: FX3 is a commercial program so you don't need to hunt for anything like ROMS, it works out of the box. No emulation so rules are typically not accurate when compared to real table. No source code means the development of FP itself has been dead for ions. Weaknesses: Physics are improved with BAM, but it's still not to everyone's taste. BAM has added tracking camera support which some people find very cool on a pincab. Quite a few "original" tables that are top notch. The BAM add-on has brought new life to it, with improvements in the graphic engine, improve physics, etc. Strengths: I think the engine dates back to 2008 but it still looks great. Hey, I'm oldįuture Pinball (latest version really means latest BAM update): The hunt for table, rom, backglass, etc can be tiring sometimes. For the full experience, you need a lot of different programs running (ie: one persons strength is another persons' weakness). Needs very good specs if you want to play in a cabinet environment. Weaknesses: In some sense, the engine shows its 2d roots (dating back to 2001!). Bonus: A seperate build exists that even supports VR! Basically if you used to love a real table, chances are it's been recreated in VPX. In the right hands, an author can make a table look/sound/play just about as good as you can get imagine in digital format. Development is still going strong, maybe throughout it's 19 years, we can honestly say for both table development and the VP program itself, this is the golden age! Source code is freely available and the devs welcome suggestions. ![]() ![]() Because of Visual Pinmame, the emulation is very accurate so that every ruleset, every light switch, every sound from the real pins are recreated in a better than expected fashion. Just about every table that's ever existed has been created and there are some cool originals. Strengths: physics are probably the best in the business, it's free. Visual Pinball (latest VPX 10.6, 10.7 is in early beta): A front end would be PinballX, PinballY and PinUp Popper. ![]() Then hit "F5" to resize the small window.Įdited by DarkMatterDM, 16 November 2022 - 03:46 AM.Superfluous detail perhaps but VP/ FP/FX3 are not "front ends". I figured out in Visual Pinball you hit "F4" to toggle display lock and you can use mouse to move the little windows around(check mouse in VP settings). I was double-clicking Visual Pinball itself, not using PinUP which seems to display correctly. At this point its trial and error.Įdit: Feel like a noob. Problem is I don't know what really each one is, and I can't find a video on how to do this on a single widescreen monitor.Īny help is greatly appreciated. With a "Configure Screens" button at the right, and when I click that I can use a drop down to select different windows and resize them. When I run the PinUP Popper config, I go to "Popper Setup" tab at top left, and click the "Screens/Theme" button, which brings up another window. What are those windows called? Is it the Backglass on top with the DMD on below it? I can't find places in the forums to explain what each is. That is what I would like to do on either Left or right of the Table in the center. There are two other windows in your picture stacked on top of one another to the side. The table centered in middle of the screen. This is what I want to see as well when I load up a table: ![]()
