hi groni, thanks for the update. sorry to hear about your bad times.

 

i am trying to play the beta 5 version FROM POST #447. it is asking for sam 3.43 or higher.

 i have Sam vbs, but not sure of the version. how do i find the version, or where can i get the 3.43 or higher?

 

also, which vp do i use for this beta5 vp9.90? pm5? 9.21?  thanks/sparky

I believe that's looking for the newer version of the core.vbs
In order to get the newer version you need to download the the standalone VP-10 and install it where your other items are and overwrite what is in there, it is backwards compatible.... It's also a good idea to back up your other items before overwriting them...

As far as the Family Guy I downloaded the one from this post doesn't seem to work right but the one that's on this site the beta version seems to work..

I'm also pretty sure they're both vp-9.90 or 9.91

i saved everything just in case.

I ran into that too.  I just changed the table script to expect the version of sam.vbs that comes with the latest VPinmame build and all works fine.

I've been running this table a lot lately to test updates to VPM.    I have to say, even with the "old" VP physics, it plays damn close to my real FG machine.    The mini-pinball is DEAD on accurate.    Super impressive work, Groni!    

It'd be great if someone refreshed it to make the mini-pinball lights work and/or make it VPX like the amazing Shrek mod.  

The only thing that's unrealistic is the Evil Monkey "hanger" target.    It's a lightweight metal flap that gets held in place by a magnet.   If it's down, the ball should hit it, but proceed up the ramp.   It shouldn't bounce off of it like a wall.

i played the pm5 version, but had too many glitches in it and felt it was unplayable.  so just normal 9.9. is great, however there is a patch to add the mini pinball lights.  if thats what your talking about. vpupatcher and the update, and the lights and center stop work great.

I know I'm about 18 months behind here, but, as DJRobX suggested, I've updated the VP9 table to have the mini-playfield lights and it's working well. Should I upload the table or would it be a bit too dated now?
