View File Crystal Palace Hotel (Original 2026) v 1.1 Paris, 1930. Welcome to the Crystal Palace Hotel, one of the most prestigious hotels in Paris. Your mission is to upgrade the Crystal Palace Hotel from 0 to 5 stars by completing its many activities and special missions. But becoming a five-star hotel is no easy task... Whether it's descending into the basement to repair the failed generators, roaming the corridors in pursuit of a mysterious ghost, or recovering the Countess's stolen diamonds, these are just a few of the tasks the manager will assign to you. Each completed mission brings you one step closer to the ultimate reward: the final rooftop party. So put on your finest evening clothes, complete the check-in, ascend the grand staircase or step into the elevator, if you've managed to repair it, and enjoy a night of jazz, mystery, cocktails and adventure in Paris. But be careful... Not every guest is what they seem. Your room is ready. Your adventure begins now. About the table Crystal Palace Hotel is an original Visual Pinball X table inspired by the golden age of Art Deco, luxury hotels and 1930s Paris. Developed by me, @ely_pincab , starting from the amazing VPW Example Table v1.7. The table has been designed with a strong emphasis on atmosphere, combining custom artwork, animations, music, lighting and dynamic effects to recreate the feeling of stepping inside a glamorous 1930s hotel. Features include: ⭐ A complete 0–5 star hotel progression system 🏨 Multiple hotel missions 🎷 Jazz Time 🛗 Interactive elevator 🧳 Luggage Express 👻 Suite 501 ghost hunt 💎 Lost Diamonds investigation 🍸 Happy Hour 🎰 Mystery Bag with good or bad rewards 🔐 Room Service and Secret Room Multiball ⚡ Hotel Blackout 💃 Rendezvous missions 🥂 Rooftop Party final objective 🎨 Custom FlexDMD animations (FlexDMD required) 💡 Dynamic DOF effects (download the latest version in DOFConfigTool) 🏛️ Original Art Deco artwork and environment 🎵 Custom music and sound design 🚫 No VR support yet 📖 Rules available at any time with the left MagnaSave button 🎵 Change the song with the right MagnaSave button 🍸 Open or close the bar doors with the Fire button to have easier access to bumpers area ⚙️ Mission difficulty level available in the F12 options This is my first table ever, so even though I have done my best to test it extensively, there are surely still some bugs. If you find one, please let me know and provide as much detail as possible to help me reproduce it. I will do my best to fix it in a future version. A big thank you to everyone who helped me debug the table and improve its gameplay. And a huge thank you also to the entire VPW team for making their Example Table available to the community. Without it, I would never have been able to achieve this result ! I hope you will enjoy your stay at the Crystal Palace Hotel !

Hi all, Just finished my cabling for ssf, and...I can't figure out what is happening... I am using a 7.1 USB card, brand Leagy (see picture). Everything is setup correctly, default windows 11 drivers. I have sound coming out of the back of speakers in windows, ( tested in youtube, subwoofer ok, speakers ok). But when I launch vpx duly configured for 7.1, correct driver selected, no more sound from the main speakers, only sound from the exciters.... If I select stereo in windows sound settings instead of 7.1, then vpx plays sound from main speakers as expected.. I spent hours on this, uninstalled and reinstalled various drivers, disabled all unused HDMI audio drivers, even tried to use onboard soundcard for main speakers and USB card for exciters only., no change in results. Except from buying another soundcard with proper drivers (such as the startech one, but it has the same chipset anyway), I really don't know what to do. And this happens with all tables. (And of course I checked that vpx volume was not at 0 in windows while playing). Can anybody help ? Playing with exciters only is cool for realism but I need my music and my Eight Ball Deluxe talking to me 😇 Thanks for your help 👍

FizX uses techniques similar to nFozzy physics on VPX to completely change the physics for the flippers, slings, rubbers, targets, ball behavior and more that allows this table play much more realistically than anyone ever thought was possible on Future Pinball. You will be amazed at the difference! PinEvent V2 This table is also updated to fully support PinEvent V2 features (DOF, PUP SSF, PUP DMD).

View File Slick Chick (Gottlieb 1963) 1.3.1 Why is Slick Chick one of the Top 10 EM (electro-mechanical) games voted by players on IPDB (Internet Pinball Database)? Is it the artwork featuring a barbershop quartet, showgirls wearing bunny ears and an apparently sauced Uncle Wiggily? Maybe. Or maybe it is due to how challenging the game is. A gobble hole in the playfield center seems to be particularly nasty if you launch multiple balls onto the playfield. Watching fans who enjoy Slick Chick though, they talk about the two skill shots you need to dial in in order to roll over either the CHICK or the SLICK at the top of the playfield. Others say this is the ultimate nudge game and will reward your ability to finesse the ball. Young people seem to enjoy the simplicity of it. Make sure you grab the beautiful backglass file from @hauntfreaks. It turns the table into pure art. From @Cliffy Slick Chick-res-files are for desktop users in HD, 2K, 4K and UW (ultrawide) configurations. The .res files in the zip are intended for desktop users of this version of Slick Chick and are named as such. However, they can certainly be used for any other table running in desktop mode and uses a directb2s (b2s) with or without a fulldmd as long as the filename matches the tables filename. They are configured to place the backglass on the right and the fulldmd to the left and are sized for a single player EM. Again they are good as templates for other sizes and locations as well. The # comment lines in the file explain what each line does. Unzip the .res file that best matches your single monitor (desktop mode) to the same folder as the table. The b2s file also needs to reside in the same folder. Delete the first 3 characters of the filename, ie, if the file you need is HD-Slick Chick (Gottlieb 1963) 1.3.res then delete the HD- so it reads Slick Chick (Gottlieb 1963) 1.3.res. Remember, the .res filename needs to match the VPX table name exactly. The b2s filename also must match exactly so rename as needed. It is assumed you already have a 2.0 or newer version of B2S Server installed. https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/12024-b2s-backglass-server/ If you want to use a b2s with a table that has built in desktop scoring I've made a tutorial showing how to do this here https://vpuniverse.com/tutorials/article/32-desktop-backdrops-adding-or-changing-the-basics/ Thanks to @JCalhoun and @hauntfreaks for help and encouragement. Super thanks to @jarr3 for modernizing and adding such great features to the B2S Server. I'm always open to suggestions that will improve location and sizing, especially since I do not have a 4k or ultrawide monitor to test. Enjoy! The late @loserman76 created this table, and over 200 others. The VPX community continues to polish and tweak the games he left us. Here is his original table: https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/8252-slick-chick-gottlieb-1963/ New in 1.3 (details listed in table Script): playfield, cap bumpers, peg color adjustments illuminated bumper base, lighting of lost balls metals, lighting, playfield lights, rubber, wooden rails adjustments, fixes addition/adjustment of screws other playfield adjustments removed high score Post It removed extraneous reflections shooter lane alignments playfield shadows Submitter EMUnderdogs Submitted 03/28/24 Category VPX - Pinball Tables  

View File Airport (Gottlieb 1969) 1.4 Airport is a bell-banger from 1969. No spinners or ball locks — just two-fisted vari-target action and plenty of bell ringing bumpers. Vari-targets are those targets that when you ram into them with your ball they retreat backward — your score increasing the farther you drive them back. You love it when Ten Times Value is lit and you drive the ball all the way back. I love vari-targets and Airport has not one but a pair of them. In fact, Airport was the very first pinball table to feature vari-targets. (That probably explains why the rest of the table is fairly spartan.) A four-player version of this table exists with a different theme and artwork, College Queens — also from 1969. Airport’s jet-set theme suggests a time when commercial jet travel was still sexy and new. Would they have had a pinball table such as this in an actual airport in 1969? Airport is another community table that began with the legacy of the late @loserman76. @AxeVerse and others have contributed to and updated the table since. This version adds a recessed apron, playfield shadows, reworking of the plastics, various tweaks to lighting, textures, and more (see table script for details). Be sure to grab the recent backglass from @hauntfreaks featuring @Silversurfer’s amazing vector artwork.

View File Star Action (Williams 1973) 1.1 Remember 1973? Pink Floyd’s, Dark Side of the Moon, Wings album, Band on the Run, William’s Star Action pinball machine…. No, not that last one? Here’s your chance to enjoy this table from over 50 years ago. Star Action features a unique turntable (in playfield-center) that spins when you hit one of two posts (remind anyone of the lamp from Tales of the Arabian Nights?). Spin it to advance through the ten lights around its circumference to get Double, then Triple scoring. Wide flippers are a little more forgiving than the sometimes shorter variant you often see in older tables. This version, 1.1, features beautiful plastics, playfield, apron — and when combined with a masterclass backglass by @hauntfreaks hopefully it makes for a top-notch EM (electro-mechanical) table worthy as an update to @loserman76’s VPX contribution. Hold left flipper (shift) before game start for options menu. Options include: 5 ball or 3 ball play Reset high scores Change scoring values Enable/disable add a ball star mode Contributors include @Cliffy, @teisen, @hauntfreaks and @JCalhoun.

View File King of Diamonds (Gottlieb 1967) 1.3 King of Diamonds is a playing-card based table where you try to get a complete hand of Diamonds. The cards 2 through 9 can be earned from rollovers — getting all of them lights the SPECIAL. The cards 10, J, Q, K and Ace can be earned from corresponding bullseye targets. A roto-spin feature (called a carousel) spins up card-rank targets five at a time providing an additional way to claim the full suit of Diamonds. Getting all thirteen cards lights all the SPECIALs. (You need the SPECIALs before the machine will deal out free games.) A player-friendly table that gives you the possibility to score a lot of free games. When this came out Gottlieb had just moved to the automatic ball release mechanism we're still familiar with. King of Diamonds is a classic from Gottlieb’s Wedgehead era and, as it turns out, the favorite table of VPU's own @Cliffy. Hold left flipper (shift) before game start for options menu. New in version 1.3: playfield lights, bumper cover and other lighting new top tabs and screw adjustments playfield color correction removed extraneous reflections fixes for plastics, decal images and materials, plunger depth new sunken tray apron playfield shadows bell no longer panned hard right for headphones users The VPX community is continually in @loserman76's debt.

View File Domino (Gottlieb 1968) 1.1 Structuring pinball around a game of dominos is interesting. Dominos are featured in the artwork, the scoring. The center of the playfield displays a winding path of 15 dominos — just below two roto-targets and a center target. If you can hit the kick-out holes, the top rollovers or the side targets (when lit) you advance lights along the path of dominos. If you can get to the last domino the SPECIALs will light. There’s just something about Domino. An early Wedgehead from Gottlieb, IPDB (Internet Pinball Database) puts it thematically in the “Happiness” category, and that doesn’t seem misplaced. Frequently owners describe the table as evoking a more innocent time. (And we all love the young woman in the Wonder Bread dress.) For EM (electro-mechanical) pinball tables, players on IPDB voted Domino into the top 100 — maybe the happy vibe of Domino is in fact infectious. New in version 1.1: center target animation lighting, reflections, wall fixes sunken tray apron alternate desktop backdrop for desktop B2S users playfield shadows SSF sound code, new sound resources Domino is another EM table first brought to VPX by the prolific, but since deceased, @loserman76. Here is a link to his original table: https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/8348-domino-gottlieb-1968/ We would love to improve Domino’s plastics, backglass but we are unable to find clean originals.
