    Quoted from Briks-707:

    I update tables on my machine every 1-2 weeks to keep up with all the new releases or improved versions, takes all of maybe 10 minutes and I’m a complete novice when it comes to the software side.

    Can you please point us to what you consider the most valuable guides?

    I have to say that I have searched and found guides but all of it seems very tedious and nebulous - also the guides seem to get out of date quickly with all the versions and revisions of various software and compatibility issues .

    I must say that considering yourself a novice and having a depth of understanding you describe in this area does not compute......

    I believe there would be many more VR pinball enthusiasts if they could clear the vexing software hurdles

    I actually think both sides of this discussion are RIGHT - totally dependent upon personal preference

    Unfortunately VPins are labor and knowledge intensive to build. I’m a Home Depot DIY person and a cheap scape on top- so this is more my path. Also once I dig into something I want to optimize it and wind up doing a trade study on almost all the parts to get the best for my objective

    However I have plenty of friends that choose convenience over price. They quickly choose to pay others a higher price to get things done so they can do what they really enjoy - many consider working with their hands and hardware a giant hassle. When someone else does it - it’s not uncommon that material and labor get a markup - comes with the territory

    Peace Out

    Quoted from Smaug:

    We are trying a new content to help you get up to speed on the history of pinball. Up first, our creator series starting with the legendary artist and pinball contributor, Python Anghelo.
