Awesome Kick A$$ Virtual BOOGIES!! you making any to sell??

Thanks Boogies. as far I know theres
no VP owners in my area. could have it shipped by
NAVL if you have one to sell down the road.. so far yours is
#1 and 2nd place is 85 Vett.. just my
opinion. also looking for some feedback
on the Guns N Roses table. is it pretty
close to the real one.? i have seen the
table but didnt look that great. I heard there
was a updated table out anyone seen or
know anything about it. I have a G N R pinball
id be willing sell it if the VP Table is as close
to the real deal..

I would like to build a Guns N Roses
theme Virtual Pinball. Anyone know where I could get the Rose
or Pistol from to use as the plunger? or any decals from the orginal
pinball.. thanks. Also interested in a Widebody cabinet based off
a STTNG pinball.. anyone have one to sell or can build? .. please
let me know

Thanks Jim.. i'll check em out..

Cool! Thanks

Anyone know any place that sells custom
decals for pinball cabinets. iam getting a
VP together and looking for some awesome
decals for a williams widebody.. thanks

thanks for the info,. looks great! i'd like to have a decal with a bunch of icons from differnt pinballs on it.

is there going to be a new version of Visual Pinball coming out? ha ha not sure what you all are talking about?
I have another dumb question to ask. whats the Difference in Future pinball and Visual pinball?? Thanks for the help..

Thanks for info.. appreciate it. Hope the next version of VP will be more user friendly haha

Arcade I have one more question to ask you. I was wondering why most people use Windows XP to run VP?
does it run better with XP? Iam in the process of building a virtual. would Windows 7 work as well or Use XP????
Thanks again!!

Thanks Bub and Markmon. Was thinking on using a I7 processor is that overkill
or what is the optimum processor to run them smooth and no lagging?

Thanks again Arcade. Pinsiders are the nicest and most
helpful.. never get any help from any users on VP Forums....
any idea when the new VP program and DX 10
are coming out?? does anyone know if theres a updated Guns N Roses
table out or coming out.. thanks again

Thanks again to you all.. really appreciate all your
expertise. iam learning alot in a short time. How about
Force Feedback and having solenoids. is that
must for a true pinball experience? or is it just a luxury to have?
i wanna build a nice machine but dont wanna go over
budget. it will be a widebody with 46' screen

Anyone have any custom decals designed
for sale? to use on the virtual.. was thinking
the guns n roses decals or star trek next
generation. but would like something cool

hey boogies where on ebay did you find
force feedback? or do you know any sites to order from
thats reasonable?? thanks

Thanks ill check it out

Anyone know whats the best type of paint
to use on a VP Cab? going to have some custom
decals done on it. thanks

thanks for the advice. iam using a new cabinet. the custom decals have
adhesive on them. was wondering what type of paint work best

Thanks Bub2010. Do you suggest painting the
cabinet by hand than spray painting? what gloss
of paint would you recommend? sorry for
all the questions. the decals are going
to be spendy and wanna do it right n not
have to reorder new ones haha

Thanks Shakenbake for the info. I"ll try
that..

Looks Sweet! does yours have force feedback
and all the extra toys. does anyone sell a kit with force feedback thats easy
to install? would like to add it on mine. thanks

Thanks Bub for the info. it was helpful. It would be nice to see a fully loaded VP in person. but iam
not close to any pinball shows in my area. Theres a VP for sale on Craigslist Minneapolis for
$5000 with everything. seller says he has $8000 in it. iam in the process of getting one put together. but appreciate
your opinion on spending the extra money for the toys. What Sub and Speakers do you recommend. I would like to have a kick ass sound system. Also having a cabinet decals done by DFWARCADE(Hyperspin Site). He does excellent work if anyone needs decals. Thanks 85Vette for referring me..

Does anyone know any other websites that sell a Digital Plunger? I tried to order from Virtuapin but says they
are out of stock and on backorder and no idea when it will be available.. Thanks appreciate the help!

Thanks Bub is that plunger just as good
as Virtupin? Hey BTA what did you get for your VP if u dont mind
sharing? I was interested in it along time ago.if it would have had a 46"
in it. i would have bought it.. Iam putting together
a williams widebody. like to give big thanks
to MAMEMAN for posting the cabinet plans.. thanks
everyone on here for sharing your VP builds and
info. its a great help

Thanks for all the Info ROO! I'll wait for the Virtuapin Plunger when they stock them. Anyone know what the ideal
tv to have for the playfield. I wanna try a 46" but heard that it makes the ball look huge and doesnt look right and really a pain to mount too. any help is a appreciated..

Thanks for sharing.. helps me out alot. Iam building off a williams widebody. specs based on a TZ pin. Would a 42 work.

About the Real DMD display which one is preferred
Led or Plasma? or is using just a computer
monitor just as good? for sound system
anyone know whats the best speakers and sub
and amp to get?

has anyone used PinballX for their front end?
just looking for opinions on which is better
the HyperPin or PinballX thanks for any help
offered.

Thanks for the info NextoPin. I messed around
with hyperpin but seems kinda a pain trying
to set up a table. I get errors. so what your saying
is pinballx is user friendly? iam trying to figure out
the software for VP till my virtual is ready to go. how
about Future pinball tables are those in 3D?

thanks for all the info. the future pinball
looks great

Hey all anything new in the virtual club? I have my virtual now.
just trying to decide which front end to use. hyperpin or pinball x?
does anyone if hyperpin will run great on a I7 with windows 7 64 bit
thanks for any info on this

Thanks!! ill go with Hyperpin. now just need
to figure out setting up the tables. been told
its a #$@%& pain.

Thanks for your input. I like the hyperpin menu
but heard that pinball X is user friendly compared to
hyperpin for setting up tables. i tried messing around
with trying to learn the sortware to run tables
but just seems like alot of work. iam so so at computers
anyknow know any forums that give you step by step
to get tables to run for dummys like myself. I had my
VP Professionally built so i invested a lot into
it. it doesnt have force feedback or the extra
whistles. has real dmd. digital plunger working
coin door. has custom decals i had made for it. i collect pinballs but dont
have the room but every time i wanna play one
of my machines i have to haul them from storage
back and fourth. so having a simulator will be nice
to play the pinballs i own or the expensive ones
i couldnt afford . heres some pics of my custom decals i had madesecuredownload-39.jpegsecuredownload-42.jpegsecuredownload-30.jpeg

Thanks Dapperdan. i checked out some videos from their
site. pretty impressive.

85vett thanks for info on vpUniverse. will
check it out. iam on vpforums. good to know
about another site. you any forums or anything
that has step by step instructions to set up hyper pin
and tables. i'd gladly pay for help or instructions
to get started. i have machine with no tables to play.
kinda like having a sports car with no gas to drive it
ha ha.

Thanks so much 85Vett. greatly appreciate your
help. ill give it a try this weekend.

hey all just trying to get this software going
on my Virtual. just have a few questions. iam
using hyperpin front end. do i need to download
Hp media packs for each table? does that have
the table included? and do i need to download full
cabinet table? thanks appreciate any help

Thanks Arcade! so on the vp forums download
section. theres a sectionun vp cabinet tables. it says full screen
cabinet and full screen b2s cabinet. do i need to download
from both or just the full screen b2s cabinet??
what are spanned cabinet tables??

Thanks for the info. is there any settings i need to
change for the display. when i view the table full screen
it seems like everything is to up close. the bumpers
look flat. doesnt look right.

Thanks everyone.. ill check out vpforums. i get more
help here than i do on Vpforums

Heres some pics of my virtual. IMG_20150409_214248_869.jpgIMG_20150409_213901_288.jpgIMG_20150409_213901_288.jpg

IMG_20150409_212745_867.jpg

Thanks Markmon! thanks for pointing that out. what would
you suggest i could do to make it better? i didnt
build it. i notice when i have a table on it looks
close up and the bumpers look flat. thanks

Thanks do you have any pics or video on your virtual
to see the difference?

Interesting.. mine was built by a pro. One of Best Virtual builders in my opinion. so what your saying is
the tv should be raised up all the way to the glass? I havent tried any tables out yet. still trying to
to set up the software and get it running. so if this is the case like you are saying that it wont
have a good look to a real pinball playfield. Guess ill sell it and have another one built. iam picky. didnt know
this would be a big factor

Thanks Boogies appreciate your input. this helps alot. I dont have an
opinion untill i get some tables running. i dont know
the physics on how the tv should be laying in the cab
along with everything else. this is why i had it professionally
done. it should look really good. i have top end componets.

MarkMon ill post a pic of my machine with
a table loaded on it. I also have pics of a machine
from guy i know that built his with the tv screen
up to the glass. i tried it out and I didnt like the screen up to the
glass. it didnt look right. unless his tv wasnt very good. I would like
to a pic of your setup please.. 602244_10151507830431551_481546834_n.jpg553258_10151507830621551_2070537532_n.jpg406307_10151507829911551_1862495355_n-1.jpgsecuredownload-45.jpeg

THANKS 85Vette Well Said!. i feel alot
confident about my virtual. and also the builder
assured me the viewing angles are set perfect on my
cab.also i been told that alot of the VP tables were done
in 2d so that is some reason why they look flat.

okay I get that you dont like how my tv is mounted
in. it would be nice to see some pics of
your virtual to see what your talking about. when
your criticizing about my machine with a sunken
monitor. your insulting the guy that built my machine.
hes been at it for a number of years and is awesome
at what he does and knows how the tv should be
mounted in for perfect angles. check out vpuniverse. hes
done quite a few cabs

Thanks 85Vett appreciate all your help and info.
iam over the tv mounting dispute. iam happy
with a sunken monitor. i just wanna get the
software going and enjoy some pinball. thanks to everyone
else for sharing info too.

thanks for your input Bub. you have any
pics of your machine to check out please

anyone out there know where to find a set up guide or tutorial
for setting up Vp9 and tables and hyperpin on any forums on
vpforums or vpuniverse? i checked out the guide
on vpforums but thats just for setting up tables on one monitor.
would be nice if there was a step by step guide to follow to
to get one table running. didnt know that the setting up
the software would be this confusing. well anyway for
me it is. ha ha. thanks appreciate any help.

any of you played the original Stern AC/DC Table
for VP. do you what file to download on VpForums.
i keep getting the non originial table.. thanks

thanks DeeGor .. awesome found it.

interested in knowing what the best settings
to have on tv for playfield such as brightness,
contrast, backlight, etc and which mode. thanks

Thanks for the info Markmon. i"ll check it out. not
sure if mine has Game mode. its a newer Samsung
model.

anyone see the new Stern KISS Pinball? looks
really good. Hope it makes it to virtual sometime.
how about Wizard of Oz will that make it to virtual?

hey all. was wondering if anyone knows how to adjust ball setting in VP. seems like the ball looks big and theres shadowing around the ball as it moves around. and anyone know which Guns N Roses table is the best to download. my table looks flat. no depth any settings to change or is that how it looks. thanks

Thanks that table looks way better than mine. . iam running cabinet full screen. i think the table i have is 2011

anyone know if theres any settings in Visual pinball to tweak around with the ball. it seems to big. iam running a 46" LED tv. and for your color settings on your tv playfield what do you have your brightness and contrast set at?

Thanks for the Info 85Vett .. Tried out
your Tv settings.. alot better now

thanks for the info Boogies. so with the backglass
tv. do you wanna keep the same settings as your playfield tv?

thanks what is your color settings
for the BackGlass Tv. mine
doesnt look that good.. but my tv
is LCD. so would your same settings work

guess my 32" tv for backglass is LED. my bad

was wondering if you have your backlight and contrast settings set higher on your tv for your backglasses? Thanks

Thanks 85Vett. Appreciate your info

I took some pics of my backglass. please give
your input if these look about right. or need more
tweeking.. in settingsIMG_20150804_014221631.jpg thanksIMG_20150804_014221631.jpgIMG_20150803_244722565.jpg

IMG_20150804_013556426.jpg

ha ha Yeah i guess Iam . i just started out with Virtual. i only have about 7 tables set up. iam using the DirectB2S. just looking for the petfect tv settings and be done with it. thanks

Thanks all for your input

Appreciate any help. is there any settings
in VP to adjust flippers? they seem kinda slow and delayed. and have 2 Dmds running one on
on BG and 2nd on real Dmd. like to take off the one on backglass tv.. thanks

thanks for the info.

Iam looking at installing a differnt tv in my
cab. anyone know whats good model to
buy? i have 46" led 3d. and whats the
best way it should be mounted in the
cab. mine is sunken in the back. dont like
the viewing angles isnt good. thanks

I dont mind the tv didnt know since its decased if can be adjusted. it looks like towards the back it slopes down. wheres yours looks straight on normal. ill post some pics. IMG_20150409_214322_245.jpgIMG_20150805_240648857.jpg

Thanks for the info. any diagrams how to have it
fitted. i wanna get it done right

thanks for sharing the tips. anyone with pics to share. appreciate it.

possibly thinking on going down to
a 42" tv. looking for opinions who prefers
46" or 42". iam thinking that 46" is too
big. not much room to work inside of the
machine if need to. anyone know any forums
or any measurements on how the tv should be
leveled in the cab? thanks appreciate your help

Thanks so much for your input. hard to decide
what to go with. my 46 is in pretty tight only way
to get it out is to tear part of the cab apart. and
i have some parts to replace inside. also have a digital plunger but the shooter rod rubs against the tv. my tv is at a slant so not much adjustment can be done. dont like how the tv sits in front it doesnt look right. i had the machine built so this will be my first try putting a tv in. i have a williams wide body. you know where some threads on the forum how to mount the tv in for for a true playfield
look. i couldnt find any on there. thanks

Wow Looks Sweet. Bub2010 what tv size
you recommend for widebody cab? Can you
please share how it should be mounted. i
have launch button also. but might just pull out the plunger. dont have the clearence.
anyone use plexiglass over their backglass
tv? any effect with that?? Thanks

so Bub2010 that Star Wars you posted pics
of has a 32" tv for playfield? i have a widebody based a williams designed. looking for some input how the 46" should be mounted for a pinball playfield. or what tv size would be best for a true pinball playfield. and would mounting dimensions please? thanks

Thanks Bub. to me that tv looks bigger than
32" in that star wars.

Bub Thanks appreciate the info. it fooled me.
looked alot bigger. now you really got me in a dillema. ha ha. now thinking i should go smaller. How about 42". the way my 46" sits in doesnt look right for viewing angles like a real pinball.

thanks for the info. very interesting. anyone
know if you should have your tv set to "game mode" in the tv settings? and any improvement running 2 video cards one for Backglass and other for playfield? thanks

Thanks soo much Bub. ill try game mode and
see if that makes a difference. i just have 2 tvs. and using a real dmd. i have a 3D 1080 Led tv for the playfield. dont know if having the 3d is making the tables not look right. now if were to go down to a 42" or smaller do the widebody games like Paragon,Genie etc look in wide form like the pinball game or be differnt size..

Thanks again Bub..

How about running some of the stern tables like AC/DC and others to that caliber. would you need a faster processor? i have I7 3.5 ghz
and Geforce 760 GTX 2 gb graphics and 8gb of ram. i dont notice any smooth play with the tables i having running with my set up

Thanks appreciate the tips. Iam running
VP991 and PM5 as well. I have a odd question. not sure if this has any effect. i had someone let me download their tables to my system. which were all ready set up. just had to put the files to the folders. now if their computer is slower than mine.are those tables configured to that computer. so which wont run at high performance on mine??

Thanks Njgs96 i'll check out the settings
I do notice when i play a game when the ball
moves around the playfield theres like a shadowing on the following the ball
when it moves around. i havent looked
the settings in Vp. thanks for pointing that out. i dont notice the ball looks big compared
to normal pin ball. I have a 46" not sure if the bigger tv causes that effect. i kinda wanting
to switch out the tv either 46 or 42 but cant decide 42 or 46. 42 or 46. the tv thats in there
got slight damage when the machine was shipped to me. it works but has a small crack on the screen in the right corner where the trim is on it. its decased. heres a build thread
of the exact same cabinet i have. appreciate
some input. i wanna make move for a tv soon.

http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?showtopic=23232

Heres some pics of mine. maybe get some
feedback if my tv should be mounted
differnt or anything to improve it. would like
to get rid of the panel of lights above it. theres
no working lights installed on them

Thanks again Njgsx96. i"ll try that. how should
the front of the tv be?

change the setting to game mode on the tv.
wow a difference it made. the picture doesnt look so bright. tables look great like a real pinball table.. Thanks for sharing that Njgsx96

Yep Njgsx96 its running good. thanks again. i also disabled some programs running in the background. thanks for pointing that out.
was wondering what settings on your tv you
have your brightness and contrast etc.. set at. i understand all tvs are differnt n different per user. but i just cant find a happy setting. i have standard,dynamic or natural for setting.some of the tables i play are too bright
looking. just curious what your settings for backlight, contrast brightness, etc.. thanks

Thanks Bub. Sorry i must have missed your post.. appreciate your help.. now if i can get some good settings for the picture quality
ill be set.

anyone know on Visual pinball how to
turn off the dmd running on the backglass and have the dmd running? or on the older tables how to turn off the dmd and have the score display on the backglass? thanks
appreciate the help

Thanks Chosen_S . so i dont need to go into
Scripts to change it? like your Mini Cab pretty
sweet. wish i had one. then my oversized cab.

Thanks Again Chosen_S. I'll try it out. I was
going ask that too what size tv you in your mini for the playfield? I want one now.

looking for some help on the AC/DC Table
i know this isnt the place but everyone here
