General approach

 

Download table and unzip the vpt or vpx file to desired Visual pinball\table folder

Download related directb2s backglass and unzip only the directb2s file to the same Visual pinball\table folder

Rename the directb2s file to match table filename, i.e attack_from_mars_v2001.vpt and attack_from_mars_v2001.directb2s

Download related rom file and do not unzip it, place it in the visual pinball\vpinmame\roms folder

 

Open table in Visual pinball

Press play

If directb2s is not visible, open table script and modify to enable b2s.server, i.e -

    Modify existing table script to change from using VPinMame server to the B2S Server:

    - Open table script 

    - If you see 'Choose Controller: 1-VPM, 2-UVP, 3-B2S' near the top of script, change it to option 3

    - Else, search for Set Controller = CreateObject("VPinMAME.Controller")             and change it to      Set Controller = CreateObject("B2S.Server") 

 

 

Once you have table working, now add it to Pinballx front end

You will need to download the related media pack (wheel image, table image, backglass image, etc) or create your own or download them individually

Unzip into the correct media folder and rename files if necessary.

Run Game Manager.exe in the pinballx folder to add the table

Run PinballX and cross your fingers
