The tutorials section didn't have a more general section, so I wan't sure where to post this...

 

Virtual Pinball can be a great hobby... but it's made up of lots of different parts of a bigger machine of software and hardware. It can be intimidating to get into.

This video is a good "starting point" for both simple Desktop users and Cabinet users to install the "essentials" of the software. This will get everything you need for VPX, and most of the cabinet related software as well.

This won't cover Pinup related software installs. There are other videos and guides for that.

It also doesn't cover any front ends.

Future Pinball, DOFLinx, and Pinball FX3 will be covered on separate videos, as will setting up Pinup Player and PuP-Packs for Desktop / Cabinet use.
