SpaceRamp (SuperEd) (Original) v3.03b
By supered
This original table I created 2 years ago, and I found out that it was never posted on vpuniverse ........
So, its time I do post it here.
The table was 100% created from scratch by myself, even the music I created for this game is "original" 🙂
The table supports UltraDMD and FlexDMD. Its now optimized for FlexDMD, but you can change that in the script.
Just be sure to place the music in your VPX music folder, and the utradmd in the tables folder.
It has not (yet) been optimised using the VPW code and sounds, but maybe it will be soon.

Slick Chick (Gottlieb 1963) 1.3.1
By EMUnderdogs
Why is Slick Chick one of the Top 10 EM (electro-mechanical) games voted by players on IPDB (Internet Pinball Database)?
Is it the artwork featuring a barbershop quartet, showgirls wearing bunny ears and an apparently sauced Uncle Wiggily? Maybe.
Or maybe it is due to how challenging the game is. A gobble hole in the playfield center seems to be particularly nasty if you launch multiple balls onto the playfield. Watching fans who enjoy Slick Chick though, they talk about the two skill shots you need to dial in in order to roll over either the CHICK or the SLICK at the top of the playfield. Others say this is the ultimate nudge game and will reward your ability to finesse the ball. Young people seem to enjoy the simplicity of it.
Make sure you grab the beautiful backglass file from @hauntfreaks. It turns the table into pure art.
From @Cliffy Slick Chick-res-files are for desktop users in HD, 2K, 4K and UW (ultrawide) configurations.
The .res files in the zip are intended for desktop users of this version of Slick Chick and are named as such. However, they can certainly be used for any other table running in desktop mode and uses a directb2s (b2s) with or without a fulldmd as long as the filename matches the tables filename.
They are configured to place the backglass on the right and the fulldmd to the left and are sized for a single player EM. Again they are good as templates for other sizes and locations as well. The # comment lines in the file explain what each line does.
Unzip the .res file that best matches your single monitor (desktop mode) to the same folder as the table. The b2s file also needs to reside in the same folder.
Delete the first 3 characters of the filename, ie, if the file you need is HD-Slick Chick (Gottlieb 1963) 1.3.res then delete the HD- so it reads Slick Chick (Gottlieb 1963) 1.3.res.
Remember, the .res filename needs to match the VPX table name exactly. The b2s filename also must match exactly so rename as needed.
It is assumed you already have a 2.0 or newer version of B2S Server installed.
https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/12024-b2s-backglass-server/
If you want to use a b2s with a table that has built in desktop scoring I've made a tutorial showing how to do this here https://vpuniverse.com/tutorials/article/32-desktop-backdrops-adding-or-changing-the-basics/
Thanks to @JCalhoun and @hauntfreaks for help and encouragement. Super thanks to @jarr3 for modernizing and adding such great features to the B2S Server.
I'm always open to suggestions that will improve location and sizing, especially since I do not have a 4k or ultrawide monitor to test.
Enjoy!
The late @loserman76 created this table, and over 200 others. The VPX community continues to polish and tweak the games he left us. Here is his original table:

South Park Halloween
By goodGRIEFF76
I'm uploading my reskinned version of the South Park table as it died with Vpinball. Was a fun table to begin with and I wanted to give it a Halloween look/feel.
Note, I changed the gameName to sprk_103h so update your VPAlias file to have sprk_103h,sprk_103. This resolves the issue with it calling in the orginal South Park Backglass/Pup.
Also, hawkeyez88 made a PUP pack that goes with the table.
Enjoy and Happy Halloween!

Sesame Street
By ninjafu
300 year ago (I did a quick Google so my math might be off) I decided to see how extreme opposite of a Bally 1978 Playboy table I could mod. As you can see...I am clearly broken.
This is my very first attempt at anything like this, so be gentle.
This is a reskin built on the work of many giants before me of the Playboy table done by GoldChicco & HiRez00, with original table authors ICPjuggla & gtxjoe based on Original VPX table: Gemini by BorgDog. Say that three times fast.
I've tweaked the art some from my original upload back in the vpinball days (kept wanting to get around to a redo of the B2s but it looks like Ryguy417 JUST uploaded a much cooler b2s w/full DMD (haven't tried it YET, but it looks amazing).
I've included all the music (which you can adjust with your magna buttons, or turn off if you're an absolute monster). Just place the SesameStreet folder directly in your music folder, and that it. I genuinely had NO idea if anyone would even care to try this out and was flattered that not only did people download it back in the day, but that there are still requests for it. So here it is. My first, and hopefully not my last (maybe I should try the opposite, and take something like Flintstones and make it nightmare inducing! Seriously I should figure out what my next theme should be...am I still talking in brackets? My bad!).
DOF should work a treat as well since it worked for the Playboy table.
That is all, as always, your ever so humble ninjafu

Strikes N' Spares (Premier/Gottlieb 1995)
By CactusDude
Here's a VPX conversion of Premier/Gottlieb's Strikes N' Spares table from 1995. (Not to be confused with Bally's "Strikes and Spares" from 1978).
I saw a picture of a real table online and thought it looked cool. When I tried to find a VPX version online, I hit a dead end. There appears to have been one at some point, but it was probably lost in the VPinball shutdown. However, I did find mfuegemann's VP9 version, so I decided to try converting that to VPX. It's far from perfect, but it was a fun challenge and I wanted to share the end result.
Huge thanks to mfuegemann and zany for their work on the VP9 version and mfuegemann's permission to post my conversion. There's no way I could've made this table without their prior work - especially zany's 3D models and mfuegemann's playfield redraw.
I've included an NVRAM file and some tips to fix common issues in the download zip. Please be sure to consult that before posting in the support thread because you might be able to answer your own question. There's also a Tarcisio style wheel in there.
Like most VPX tables, I haven't had the chance to play a real version of the table, so hopefully, I got the game working correctly. I'm sure it could also look even better if someone improved my lighting, etc. PLEASE get in touch if you're interested in modding the table. I want to make sure we're on the same page concerning a few things.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy!

Silver Slugger (Gottlieb 1990)
By BorgDog
re-upload from a couple years back. I think this is the last of my tables except for a few variations (4 player or import/export) of tables I've already uploaded.
Some time back I ran across some decent photos of a stripped/NOS playfield for Silver Slugger, did a quick look around and didn't see a VPX release, so started building it up. Sometime later while looking for plastics I ran across bodydumps early vpx WIP of Silver Slugger that included redrawn playfield and plastics, and I said "dammit". since I had put a fair amount of work into my build I decided to keep on with it, and eventually got in touch with bodydump who gave me permission to use his resources. since the playfields were not a direct match I decided to stick with mine instead of moving everything around, but it was fairly easy to move around bodydumps plastics to match my setup.
first a couple thank you's and kudos:
@bodydump, thanks for letting me use your resources, very much appreciated
@DCrosby, thanks for the upscale/cleanup of my playfield
@Schreibi34, thanks for the new kicker primitives
@bord, thanks for all the blender instruction
So speaking of blender, I'm still learning, and this includes my first try at some reflections on walls. Not a lot of them, but just the most visible of the shiny metal walls. Also did another set of GI shadows in blender. I'm sure none of these are as good as others are capable of, but I think they turned out OK, and I'm learning something new (they say that's good for us old people's brains).
Table has a few options near the top of the script for turning flipper and ball shadows on and off and for choosing the apron card colors (stock black on white or inverse white on black).
FS is setup for my cab which has the playfield in windows portrait mode, I'm sure you all can figure it out, or at some point someone will post a wrong landscape pov file.

Shovel Knight 4k RusstyTMod1.0
By RusstyT
Fast, Fun & Captivating. The eye popping table graphics, attention to detail with lighting, music and effects will draw you in from the moment you this start this game. This game has 10 modes, 32 sound tracks, changing colour lights and continual backglass game play instructions that guide you through an action packed pinball adventure. The rolling ball sounds on ramps and the table are embellished with fx effects that generate an immersive pinball experience . This table is deserving of a place in anyones cabinet or desktop and the uniqueness of the scripting to backglass makes this table deserving of a place in Virtual Pinball history. Enjoy!
VP 10.7 is required to play this game. This game is fully scripted and requires no ROM. The game and backglass are included in the download and the EM reels are set to visible for desktop use. A 3 screen backglass by outhere is also available to download. The rules for the modes and bonuses are on the Apron rule Cards. All credit to Wizball for creating a very clever smooth running game game and thanks of course to him for helping me during the mod. This game is fast flowing game so you will have to refer to the apron rules and hints at some time. The full rule set is in Wizballs original post if you would like to see these.
For desktop players open the game in edit mode and check that the preferences are set for desktop mode. If this is the first time you are using VP7. ie. Video graphics has Cabinet mode deselected and Full Screen mode selected and in the key nudge preference ensure that B2S is deselected. Save and close and reopen.
If you are still having trouble seeing the score on the playfield then you do the following
Open the script, Line 11 says:
Const bAlwaysDisplayScore = False ' Always show the score on the playfield even if there is B2S
Make it say:
Const bAlwaysDisplayScore = True ' Always show the score on the playfield even if there is B2S
Mods in this table include;
New table graphics and plastics.Compiled using graphics from the Yacht Club and light and plastic techniques that I have been experimenting with.
New bumper and backdrop graphics
Character Lighting created to fit the 11 character silhouettes and lighting of the central shovel knight character illuminates the bottom playfield in conjunction with bumper GI.
Music has been allocated to the Backglass and table sounds added for the wire ramps, targets, kicker in and rolling ball wave files adjusted to -13dB to hear the ball roll.
Thankyou for checking out Wizball's fantastic game and please leave him a thank you.

Star Wars (Gottlieb 1978)
By BorgDog
This is my single player wedgehead version of the pretend Gottlieb table from 1978 (yes not really a Gottlieb). I created this to go with my Star Wars themed wedgehead design virtual cabinet. Much help from hauntfreaks and sliderpoint, and I'm sure others.
Hold down left flipper button while not in a game to bring up the options menu.
NOTE: this was made in 2016 for whatever version of VPX was out at the time, I have NOT gone through and retested everything to see if it still works correctly in 10.6 or 10.7beta.
Description pulled from wayback archive of vpinball:
This is a recreation of Gottlieb's 1978 Star Wars Wedgehead. See below the instructions for the story behind this machine.
Big thanks to hauntfreaks and sliderpoint for graphics, primitives, testing and gameplay ideas. Graphics for the table predominately come from the 1977 Marvel comic series rendition of the Star Wars movie. As usual several options are available through the options menu (hold left flipper before starting game). A few more options are available in the script near the top.
directb2s included in download
FS settings for my cab which has playfield in portrait orientation, you may need to adjust.
Instructions:
Complete three missions to activate the tractor beam.
1. Advance Lukes Jedi training by hitting the labeled targets.
2. Retrieve the Death Star plans by clearing the top rollovers.
3. Rescue the princess by blasting down the drop targets.
Once the tractor beam is active complete a trench run to lock a ball in the Death Star.
Release the tractor beam by hitting the labeled hole in R2-D2, starting Death Star multi-ball, opening the portal access, and resetting the missions.
Hit the portal within the multiballs lives to earn extra ball, or the portal closes again.
The Story of Gottlieb's 1978 STAR WARS (fan FICTION)
What was that? You haven’t heard of one of Gottlieb’s last wedgehead pinball machines called Star Wars? Well, not many have. Let me take you back to a more innocent time and tell you all about it.
It was the spring of 1977, a teenage DorgBog, mild mannered alter ego to the more famous and notorious BorgDog, had just gotten home from his favorite comic store. In his hands was Marvel’s newest release ahead of the much anticipated motion picture Star Wars. This was the first of what was to be a 6 issue comic rendition of the movie. DorgBog was very enthralled by this comic, and the following month by the epic space fantasy movie of the same name. Luke, Han, R2-D2 and the rest occupied every waking moment of the young man’s mind. This was of course before he discovered girls were more than annoyances, but I digress.
DorgBog, unknown to all but his closest confidants, was also a pinball junkie. His meager allowance and pay from his paper route invariably wound up feeding the silver balled gods and goddesses of his favorite Gottliebs. And in young DorgBog’s mind was churning the maelstrom of a the most awesome collaboration of epic forces to ever grace the pinball world! DorgBog was on a mission to combine the might of Marvel’s comics, Gottlieb’s pinball prowess, and Lucas’ Star Wars empire (pun intended into the greatest wedgehead known to man!
DorgBog was consumed by this idea. Spending countless hours writing letters, on paper no less this was after all before the age of the internet and email, and begging stamps from his parents, entreating the 3 parties to consider his idea. Young DorgBog began including sketches of his ideas for the machine including things such as a giant Death Star complete with trench run, and multiple balls in play at the same time; unheard of in Gottlieb’s vast arsenal of pinball wizardry!
Finally when DorgBog had almost given up hope after weeks and weeks of writing (that’s a long time in a young boys life). DorgBog received an envelope marked with a return address of the D. Gottlieb & Company in Northlake, Illinois. DorgBog raced with his treasure to his tiny closet of a room, and into the closest of the tiny closet of a room, this was after all top-secret type stuff. Upon opening the envelope young DorgBog’s heart fell, his dreams crushed with a cease and desist letter telling him to stop harassing the company, that there was no way a license deal could be arranged, and no way the pinball machine would be built. Multiball?! Scandalous!
A few weeks later, when DorgBog was finally coming to grips with his lost dream, another letter arrived in the mail. This one in a plain envelope and with no return address. What he found inside rekindled his faith in humanity and restored joy to the young man. An engineer at Gottlieb had found the discards of Dorgbog’s plans and thought them a grand idea. So without knowledge of his supervisors this young, and also Star Wars crazed engineer, begin building a prototype table to present to his bosses and convince them it was the best idea ever! Buying numerous copies of the comics and cutting out panels to adorn his secret project, the Star Wars wedgehead was born!
Well one was birthed, a prototype, that never did see production as Gottlieb had changed directions and was on its way to the future with computer chips and processing units, and all those other fancy terms and the single player wedgehead was to be no more. Eventually when the young disgruntled engineer abandoned Gottlieb, he took his prototype with him, smuggled out piece by piece as there were trademark and copy write issues you know. Feeling bad for having raised the hopes of a young pinhead, he drove through the dark and gloomy night to the home of young DorgBog and bestowed upon him the gift of the Star Wars wedgehead prototype, with the strict admonishment that it never, EVER, be seen by the general public.
DorgBog kept his promise to that engineer and kept Star Wars carefully hidden from all eyes. Unfortunately for the mild mannered DorgBog, he was taken over by the nefarious BorgDog alter ego, who subsequently proceeded to rampage the countryside, oh and turned to the dark side of video games because by then, Asteroids, Defender, Pac Man and too many glorious glowing gems of greatness had burst upon the scene and pinball began a long decline. DorgBog’s beloved Star Wars was lost to the annals of time, until recently when a fine aged BorgDog finally discovered the silver balled gods for himself and recalled that now decrepit machine languishing in storage.
So here, finally, after many long lost years is the long lost prototype edition of Gottlieb’s 1978 Star Wars wedgehead. Just don’t tell Marvel or Lucas (Disney, whatever) as I’m sure they’d want in on the action.
This is a work of fiction, any resemblance to real or imagined characters is entirely coincidental.

small improvements in the playfield, plastics, lighting,flippers position... I want to make it clear that the descriptions for the tables I'm sharing are "standard" for all, changes are made when there is a need for some adjustment.
version used, follow the link to the original table
Adjustments made:
playfield color correction
metals
upper guide plastics
adding edge to plastics
flippers adjustment
exchange of targets for the correct ones and adjustments
Description of Loserman76:
Gottlieb's Super Soccer. Thanks to Tamoore allowing me to use his resources, I created the VPX version of this table. Carlos Guizzo provided some really nice backglass images which were used in the creation of the B2S for this table. Also includes a wheel image - feel free to make a better one.
NOTE: DOF Users - the table will probably try to use Tamoore's table config for DOF. Try using the configuration from 300 or Top Score and you should see better results. Sorry, I'm still new to actually using DOF so your results may vary.

Space Walk (Gottlieb 1979)
By BorgDog
Same as version that was on vpinball.com. no need to redownload if you have that one.
Here is an update to my recreation of Gottlieb's 1979 Space Walk. This was the last em made by Gottlieb, and also has an ss version Count-Down (which is frankly a better game as the drops reset during a ball, once you get all the drops down on this one not much to do). Added scanned images of the plastics off my Count-Down, changed quite a lot of the scripting to newer methods and playfield objects, high score sticky note with initials, added more to the on-screen menu (hold down left flipper after starting table before starting a game to get to options), and other stuff
Thanks to Drybonz for testing and feedback.

Sheriff (Gottlieb 1971) 1.2
By JCalhoun
It's a fascinating thing that the work you create, if shared, can outlive you. So it is for Jeff "Loserman76" Whitehead. We all have him to thank for his prolific work in creating EM games for VPX.
And so his title, Sheriff is seeing a lot of work by the community: Teisen modded, then GauGau... I have tweaked the sound code to incorporate Fleep's sounds and sound code. This improves the SSF (surround sound feedback) for flippers, etc.
As per GauGau's work, you can create a music folder called "Sheriff" with custom music, or see his Western-themed PUP pack.

Star Pool (Williams 1974)
This release wouldn't be possible without the following:
Darth Marino for the artwork
Halen who brokered the permissions to use Darth Marino's prior work
JPSalas for his implementation and code related to the spinner
flupper for the primitive used for the spinner
Like all of my releases, hold down the left flipper for 3 seconds when not playing a game to set the options.
ZIP includes a wheel image and directB2S
This is for personal use only. DO NOT include this in any pre-packaged ZIP of tables for commercial/non-commercial products. You know who you are. Just enjoy what is provided for FREE instead of trying to earn a buck from our community's work.
Any mods, require permissions from ALL of the above folks listed as primary contributors for this table.

Wildman's B2S
Loserman Description:
VPX conversion
Artwork done by GNance
Original art by Popotte
others to thank: JPSalas, Pinuck, hauntfreaks, Borgdog, Arngrim
in addition to the "standard" keys (typically "1" to start game and "5" for coin), I've added "3" as another coin input and "4" for coin and auto-start game (like I recall the dime slots generally were) to simulate 3 coin slots
when game is not in progress, holding down left flipper for about 3-5 seconds will bring up the options menu. left flipper selects item, right flipper changes option.
I've also included shadows for the ball and flippers. If you want to turn them off look for these lines at the beginning of the script:
Const ShadowFlippersOn = true
Const ShadowBallOn = true
change to false if you want either of the shadows not showing on your tables
