B2K24 Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 A big Thanks to gtxjoe and of course the people doing work to convert these tables to PM5. Without ever seeing gtxjoe's post, I would've probably never tried any of these tables and I'm very happy that I did
sorhp Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 Hey guys... A little new to the party. What do I need to run pyhsmod tables... If it works better to pm me to not derail this thread, please do. Thank you
Content Provider freneticamnesic Posted November 15, 2014 Content Provider Posted November 15, 2014 it's all in the first post, download the physmod version needed to run the table you want (the table tells you which physmod version, the first page has links to them)
mekurri2006 Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Will this work? http://vpuniverse.com/index.php/physmods.html Lets say I'm new here, how do i get to that page without going to this thread ? Also can you guys and a follow for this aswell

hiljak Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Can someone upload the ClarkKent modded tables to this site. The dropbox links have been deleted due to drama at VPF. Thanks!
Content Provider freneticamnesic Posted November 18, 2014 Content Provider Posted November 18, 2014 I would encourage ClarkKent to release VPU patches for those tables instead of direct downloads
mpad Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Oh boy, here you are! Now I get all this other place space universe talk. Meh+hello.
Content Provider freneticamnesic Posted November 18, 2014 Content Provider Posted November 18, 2014 Huh wha wasn't me
Administrators Dazz Posted November 18, 2014 Administrators Posted November 18, 2014 I would encourage ClarkKent to release VPU patches for those tables instead of direct downloads I was just reading that thread. Trying to grasp what exactly is going on.
Content Provider freneticamnesic Posted November 18, 2014 Content Provider Posted November 18, 2014 tl;dr ck and bigboss released physmod versions of other authors tables without asking for permission. those authors got upset and requested that the links be removed. eventually everyone got involved and people got upset, ck and bigboss removed their links, then the thread got locked because it's easier to do that than deal with the argument. the whole thing could have been prevented if a moderator had stepped in 2 weeks ago when this issue first came up between another author and myself, and just removed the link to the tables in question and explained why. but here we are.
Administrators Dazz Posted November 18, 2014 Administrators Posted November 18, 2014 Hmm, I wish someone had an answer to this... Physmod are perfect candidates for our patcher. Look at the PC gaming communities. Most game developers encourage and even give their users the tools to mod their games. Mods require the users to own the original game thus still keeping the old original game and giving it new life. Why not just create patches for them? I said this a long time ago... Patches are what the whole VP community NEEDS. Patches keep the official files relevant and the original creators still get recognition.
Loafmeister Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 I think patches are a good solution but many authors provide many updates to their tables, will sometimes delete the older version and I think that renders the patching system a little bit headachy. Still agree better than nothing though.
Loafmeister Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Fren: sometimes though "sleeping on it" is way better than a from the hip decision thAt everyone can regret later. This is kind of a kobyashi Maru situation though

This is kind of a kobyashi Maru situation though If last night was the first time it came up, I'd agree with you, but it already came up 2 weeks ago with no real resolution "from above" beyond everyone just kind of stepping away....
ViriiGuy Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 I have most of the CK tables. Tell me what is needed and I will get them uploaded.

Still agree better than nothing though. Granted It's not an end all be all perfect system, but it is by far what's been going on for years with the VP community. When this has happened in the past the patch creator created a new patch based on the updated table. There may be some delay between the official table release and the patch. Can anyone suggest a better solution?
Content Provider freneticamnesic Posted November 18, 2014 Content Provider Posted November 18, 2014 No, only concern right now is authors disliking the patch system as well. Not everyone will have the same reasons
Content Provider gtxjoe Posted November 18, 2014 Author Content Provider Posted November 18, 2014 I give permission to patch my releases ...and, I think it is time to lock another thread over there, just lost another one
Shadowsclassic Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 I give permission to patch my releases ...and, I think it is time to lock another thread over there, just lost another one Now what?
ViriiGuy Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Need to just lock the entire damn forum over there.... Or at least evict the management.
Content Provider unclewilly Posted November 18, 2014 Content Provider Posted November 18, 2014 Please patch my tables. Converting to physics mod is a pain in the a $$. Oh and an update. Vp10 is coming right along. I think we will see a beta in the not to distant future. Maybe a few months
Content Provider freneticamnesic Posted November 18, 2014 Content Provider Posted November 18, 2014 Awesome I'm excited for vp10, I have 3 or 4 tables lined up to be completed just before vp10 comes out so that should drive me stupid
hiljak Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 The conversation going on currently is basically that mods to existing tables, with respect given from previous work that is being modded (at least I think, kind of all over the place on the specifics), shouldn't happen without express permission from the original author of the recreation. Even physics mods. That logic seems flawed since the original creator of the machine did not give express permission for anything and it would seem that subsequent demands for pre-authorization for "mods" kind of an unrealistic expectation. Needless to say, most people disagree with me on that. Not sure why but it's pretty clear that never in the history of internet forums has anyone ever been convinced to abandon their position.
Administrators Wildman Posted November 18, 2014 Administrators Posted November 18, 2014 HOLY FUCK....keep that fucked up mentality at VPF were it belongs ...dont bring that drama here.......WTF guys VPU better place to be....more open minded here lets keep it that way why this place was made make the patches best way around all the issues... why we invented it...ASK.first to mod if. no responce....patch it ....make it simple..original is not touched we all big boys lets stop acting like kids in school...we all here to play fuckin pinball...that the bottom line ..so STFU with the bullshit....
