VPX Scripting - Part 1

[JCalhoun]

I waded into the script of a VPX table in order to try and enhance the sound code to be similar to the sounds I heard in other tables. At that time I was unable to find much on how all this stuff works and spent a good deal of time looking, cutting, pasting, and trying things.

 

I thought I would document what I learned so that others might have a starting point or an on-ramp to VPX scripting.

 

This is the first in a series on VPX scripting. As an example I use the VPX table, Teacher’s Pet for what I hope is a gentle introduction — geared to the person for whom scripting (and perhaps even programming itself) is new.

Great work JC and very useful!

This will make it much easier for those just starting out and for those who already know a little about VPX....

VPX Scripting - Part 2 (Linting) is maybe a little dry, but is a quick read.

I'll have more posts in the future with additional work Teacher's Pet.
