Bally's 1978 Mata Hari had a production run of 16,260 units, it is the ninth most produced Pinball machine in history. The theme is based upon the legend of Mata Hari, aka Margaretha Zelle (1876-1917) who was a popular exotic dancer throughout the early 20th century. She was accused and convicted in France of “Consorting with the Enemy” during World War I, which led to her being executed by firing squad. Thanks to Apophis for providing a high resolution playfield scan. Thanks also to @redbone for updating, scaling, and cleaning the playfield up, as well as assisting in the many other graphics including the plastics, flippers, apron, and targets! I used Hauntfreaks backglass for VR. And thank you to Tomate for helping with the saucer primitive. This table was done from scratch placing everything, and implementing the latest VPW (2025) standards, physics, alllamps and 3D inserts, backglass for desktop, roth drop targets, standalone compatibility, sling corrections, optional DIP adjustments, updated flipper physics, VR and fully hybrid, playfield mesh for the saucer, Flupper style bumpers and lighting. I also baked the GI and interior wood walls. I've once again studied hours of videos to ensure accurate placement, gameplay, bounces, physics, etc. I've provided a .nvram file for the ROM menu settings, and I've hard coded the DIP switch settings as usual. This table is loaded with options in the F12. Various balls, ball brightness, flippers, screw caps, plastic edge colors, LUTs, Dip settings, and plenty of other VR stuff, including LED undercab lighting. Please NOTE there are several items to consider on the ROM settings: The default settings for the ROM options are hard coded into the script and are based on the recommended values from Bally for 3 balls. If you want to change the ROM settings themselves, you need to change the "SetDIPSwitches to 1" in the script, and then use the F6 menu to change. However... I am not able to hard code the ROM menu options. Typically, there are levels of score achievements that award a free play. The default ROM has that set to off. I've included an nvram file you can use that sets that to match the instruction/score cards and Bally's recommendation (200,000, 340,000, and 480,000). I also have instructions in the script on how to change that if you wish to do yourself. Thanks again to Apophis, Redbone, Hauntfreaks, and Tomate! Also thanks to everyone else from the VPW team that provided testing and feedback!

Welcome to Cactus Jack's! It's Party Time! This table was originally done by BorgDog and Bodydump on version 0.95. They had help from Dark (cactus models), Bord (lighting) and Rothbauerw (physics) some time ago. I asked for permission to add all the latest physics, sounds, etc. to the table. I also did quite a few updates in version 2.0 mentioned below. Also thanks to RIK, PinStratsDan, Apophis, and Wylte for testing the table. IMPORTANT: You MUST select what mode of table you are playing in the Script. VR, Desktop, or Cab. There are several other options to select as well, including ball brightness, VR Room, VR clock, VR posters, VR topper. LUT can be changed by clicking the right and left magna save buttons. (You can turn that off in the script as well) IF YOU experience performance issues... there are options to change that. First of all, there's an option to turn wobble off. Wobble allows the cacti on top of the bumpers to move when you nudge the table, or the ball hits the bumpers. A cool effect but not if you experience performance issues. Also, you can turn dynmaic shadows off for additonal performance if needed. Version 2.0 Updates: - The table is now a hybrid (desktop, cab, and VR) - VR includes an animated backglass (image from Wildman), and several VR options (room, poster, clock, topper). (Sixtoe originally provided VR cab art and other tweaks a year ago) - The table and flipper physics have been updated to the latest VPW standards, as well as dynamic shadows, drop targets, ramprolling sounds, and several other tweaks. - Fleep sounds added - Corrected a couple errors in the table, as the upper drop targets were reversed. Also tilt wasn't working. All corrected, and adjusted. - Enhanced performance as much as I could by removing all getballs calls and no longer destroy and recreate balls. I implemented only the gBOT global call. - Updated the trough code to manage all balls on the table. - Added LUT options. - I also typed up a rules sheet and included in the download, and in table info, since it can't be found on the web. RIK provided a link to a game play video here: -

This table was originally done by Herwey, and he gave me the permission to add all the latest physics, sounds, etc. to this fun table. Thank you very much, Herwey! On his version 1.1 he had help from several others including Schreibi, 32assassin, OldSkoolGamer, Cosmic80, Bord, Rosve, Batch, Vogliadicane, Flupper, Ninuzzu, Dark, DJRobX, and Thalamus. I did quite a few updates in version 2.0 mentioned below (and detailed in the vpx script), essentially getting up to the latest VPW physics, lights, and sounds, and other corrections. This was the first table I put the 3D inserts in (Thanks to apophis for his tutorial, feedback, and advice!). Also thank you to all the testers on the VPW team for testing, feedback, and suggestions for improvement: nFozzy, apophis, Aubrel, Wylte, Rik, Rajo Joey, iaaki, BountyBob, rothbauerw, tomate, PinStratsDan, and Lumi! Note: If you are playing in VR... you MUST select VR_Room = 1 in the script!! There are several options to select in the script, including ball brightness, color mods, GI and Flasher options, VR Room, VR clock, VR posters, VR topper. Sub mods and flippers can be changed by clicking the right and left magna save buttons. (You can turn that option off in the script as well) IF YOU experience performance issues... there are options to change that. First of all, you can uncheck "Reflect Elements on Playfield in the table options window. Also, you can turn dynamic shadows off for additional performance if needed. Version 2.0 Updates include: - Implemented the table to a hybrid (desktop, cab, and VR), and has options for ball brightness. - Added VR to include an animated backglass (image from Wildman), and several VR options (room, poster, clock, topper). (Thanks to Sixtoe's VR templates). Also animated all the flippers, plunger, etc. - The table and flipper physics have been updated to the latest VPW standards, as well as dynamic shadows, drop targets, standup targets, ramprolling sounds, and several other tweaks. - Fleep sounds added, as well as relay sounds. - Added Flupper domes. - Adjusted the flippers to be actual size, and tweaked the flipper physics. - Added 3D insert primitives and tuned the lighting significantly for those. Lots of work on the playfield cutouts, and associated text layer. - Changed lamp control to VPW Lampz. - Corrected some errors in the table, including spinner movement, rebounder action, some ramp lift code, timing on saucer entry, and a few other things. - Adjusted the lighting levels, and GI overhead. - Tomate added new Bally Flipper primitives, wall textures, and fixed an issue with the ramp lift primitive... as it wasn't built correctly in blender. - Enhanced performance as much as I could by removing all getballs calls and no longer destroy and recreate balls. I implemented only the gBOT global call. - Updated the trough code to manage all balls on the table. - Updated some images to implement see through holes in the apron and sub. - Created new background for desktop mode, with animated lighting. - Added updated center drain post dome from Bord's space shuttle (done by Rothbauerw). - And so many other updates, all documented in the script. Once again thank you to Herwey, nFozzy, apophis, Aubrel, Wylte, Rik, Rajo Joey, iaaki, BountyBob, rothbauerw, tomate, PinStratsDan, and Lumi for testing, and feedback!! -

Dragonfist, the blackbelt of pins. It's the habit that's hard to kick! Dragonfist has something that keeps the pin player coming back for more. The backglass shows the number of spinner revolutions and can give the player a special bonus when 20, 40, 60, or 80 revolutions hit. Dropt Targets in the right and left orbit lanes, and a fun to hit spinner. It's a tough game to beat, a hard habit to kick, because Dragonfist is the blackbeld of Pins. Thanks to Redbone for providing me with a freshly stitched playfield, and for helping with upscales and lots of other graphics. Redbone also took lots of videos and pictures of an real table to help me in recreation. And thanks to Hauntfreaks and Redbone for providing me with an upscaled backglass for VR. Thanks also to the VPW team for testing and feedback! The whole table was done utilizing latest VPW standards for physics, lighting, GI baking, 3D inserts, shadows, drop targets, 3D inserts, etc. Dozens and dozens of hours were spent studying gameplay videos to match the table skill shots and physics action. There are plenty of options included in this table via the F12 menu including colors and marks for all targets, bumpers, flippers, walls, spinners, and LED plastic edges. There are also multiple VR room environment and other VR options all done via the F12 menu. You can also change the ROM sound volume in the F12 menu. (Note if you want to change the ROM volume, you'll need to restart the table after the change.). I've included default settings for the ROM options hard coded into the script. If you want to change the ROM settings themselves, you need to change the "SetDIPSwitches to 1" in the script, and then use the F6 menu to change. Ball options are also available in the script. All other options are in the F12 menu. PLEASE NOTE: There is ANOTHER option for an updated ROM. If you use the alternate ROM... you will see the high spins to date on the Player 4 LED display during the high score attract mode. ALSO, it will preset the Max Credits to 00 (essentially putting it in freeplay mode). IF you want to change to have credits put in, you'll need to follow the instructions here: https://www.vpforums.org/index.php?app=tutorials&article=109 . Essentially to increase max credits... press 7 to open the ROM menu, keep pressing 7 until you see 18 in the display, then LONG press the "1" key to increase the max credits. The max credit change is only needed for the alternate ROM, not the default one. (I will also include the ROM change description in the zip package).

Early in 2021, I received permission from Bigus to update this table and add the VR conversions... originally done by Tom Tower and Ninuzzu. The VR conversion included backglass, flashers, lighting, GI, and other table issue fixes (high score initials, trough multiball and tilt issue, and others). I used the Blacksad dark image from his backglass, as it looks amazing. All the interactivity was done in the script. Sixtoe did a lot of lighting updates as well, including bloom lighting, overlay, etc. Version 2.0 includes a hybrid mode for desktop, cab, and VR. Plus all the latest updates that the VPW team has been doing lately. It includes Fleep sounds, nFozzy / Roth physics and flippers, and general table physics updates. It also has Rothbauerw drop targets, VPW Dynamics Shadows by Iakki, Apophis, and Wylte, Flupper Domes, and LUT options. Bord also added a playfield mesh so the ball goes into the center saucer more realistically. I also added a recent update by fluffhead35 for ballrolling and ramproll amplication sounds. Hauntfreaks provided a couple lighter ball images as well. I also added more VR options to include a wall clock, and additional animation. There are plenty of options in the script including LUT lighting changes, ball brightness, VR, cab, and desktop modes, dynamic shadows, rolling amplification, and other sound and shadow options. Also for VR users, you can change to different room environments. If you get 3 credits each time you add a coin, I put instructions in the script on how to modify your ROM to only add one coin. Anyway, I hope you enjoy! And thanks again to all involved! -

Gottlieb's 1980 Buck Rogers is based on the 1979 film and TV series "Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.", featuring a space adventure theme highlighted by vibrant sci-fi artwork on the backglass and playfield. Thanks to cwgoss28 for providing a playfield scan and Borgdog for plastic scans. Then of course thanks to @redbone who took those scans of the playfield and plastics and did a lot of work to get them to look so good! Also thanks to Apophis for proving video and pictures of actual gameplay as well as testing. Hauntfreaks also provided the higher resolution VR backglass images. I also want to thank Sixtoe for teaching me how to improve the playfield_mesh to avoid ball sticking issues. For this table, I updated to the latest VPW standards, physics, alllamps and 3D inserts, backglass for desktop, roth targets, standalone compatibility, sling corrections, optional DIP adjustments, updated flipper physics, VR and fully hybrid, Flupper style bumpers and lighting. Baked GI, walls, and created a playfield mesh for the saucer physics. The vari-target was done utilizing Roth's method, but modified to work with this table. Dozens and dozens of hours were spent studying gameplay videos (several photos and videos provided by Apophis.) to match the table shots and action. Once again, I've included several options in the F12 menu including various balls, ball brightness, flippers, caps, plastic edge colors, LUTs, and other VR stuff, including LED undercab lighting. For the ROM... since the latest VPinMAME, there is an error with older Gottlieb System 1 ROMs (they were using a bad "CF" spider chip dump all these years). So, if you download off of Pinball Nirvana... you'll likely get an error. The "New Fixed ROMs" can be found in the required software section below, called "new fixed ROMS for vpinmame" You'll see 17 ROMs in the pack. buckrgrs.zip is one of them, and you'll need that for this table. Please NOTE there are several items to consider on the ROM settings: The default settings for the ROM options are hard coded into the script and are based on the recommended values from Gottlieb for 3 balls.

Also, there are settings in the menu to set replays, sound, and HSTD. All this has been done for you in the included nvram file.

"Solar Ride," released by Gottlieb in February 1979, features a captivating outer space theme and "vibrant" backglass artwork. This machine was produced in two versions: an electro-mechanical model and a solid-state version. (this is the solid state version). Not much to this table, but gameplay is fun and getting bonus early is definitely desirable. Key strategies include shooting the drop targets to light up the special, managing the bonus multiplier, and utilizing the top left lane for a 2X bonus. In the F12 instructions, I have other strategy and tips as well. Thanks to CainArg for providing a playfield scan as well as the cleanup of it. Then of course thanks to @redbone who scaled it, as well as providing the apron, and upscaling the plastics. For this table, I updated to the latest VPW standards, physics, alllamps and 3D inserts, backglass for desktop, roth targets, standalone compatibility, sling corrections, optional DIP adjustments, updated flipper physics, VR and fully hybrid, Flupper style bumpers and lighting. Baked GI, walls, and created a playfield mesh for the saucer physics. Many hours were spent studying gameplay videos to match the table shots and action. I put as much detail into the table as I could... animating the upper gates, all the rubber animations, saucers, etc. Once again, I've included several options in the F12 menu including various balls, ball brightness, flippers, caps, plastic edge colors, LUTs, and other VR stuff, including LED undercab lighting. For the ROM... since the latest VPinMAME, there is an error with older Gottlieb System 1 ROMs (they were using a bad "CF" spider chip dump all these years). So, if you download that specific ROM off of Pinball Nirvana... you'll likely get an error. The "New Fixed ROMs" can be found in the required software section below.

New Launcher Project: Check out, how it works: Version 4 (coded in Unity) Big thanks to A. Rubin for his amazing work on hundreds of tableskins! Big thanks to Rajo Joey for providing his tablesound-archive! Installation: ---------- install into your VPX folder start only the launcher4.exe inside your VPX folder setup your paths and keys via settings at trayicon-menu restart launcher optimize your single-klick speed rotation-speed (inside launchers overlay-settings) start with 0.0 and increase to 0.1 ... problems with autoupdate? -> try starting launcher as admin Performance problems? 1) Set renderScale to 1.0 in VR! 2) Try disabling table-videos 3) Try disabling "room" Changelog: --------- What's new in version 4.8x - new circular tableselection - random table function What's new in version 4.67 Tablesounds are included in the resources. If you want to overwrite the existing sound you can can place your own tablesounds inside /vrlauncher4/config/tablesounds/ The filenames have to match against the tablearray like the vpx-names. What's new in version 4.64 If you want to hear backgroundmusic place mp3 here: /vrlauncher4/config/music.mp3. What's new in version 4.63 You can (it's optional) launch vpx with special params for vr or novr. vrlauncher4/config/config.xml: <vpparams2d>-ini novr.ini -Minimized -Play</vpparams2d> These params will be passed to VPX if you are in launcher 2d-mode. Since 10.8 Beta 5 you can launch VPX with an ini-file with settings. If you setup a novr.ini with the following setting... [PlayerVR] AskToTurnOn = 2 ... VPX will start in 2d mode (turn off VR). <vpparams2d>-ini novr.ini -Minimized -Play</vpparams2d> in vrlauncher4/config/config.xml will load this ini-file while launching tables. The result of these settings is that you can set in the launcher whether you want to play in VR or 2D. The launcher automatically detects if you have a VR device connected, so you won't receive any more error messages in VPX because of that. (F9 toggles VR/2D) What's new in version 4.62 online /config/offlinedata/mytables.csv merges into tablearray You can place your special tables there (readme.txt) What's new in version 4.61 + VR-settingseditor in VR-mode + 2D-settingseditor in 2D-mode Hint: If you want a full table-rotation set rotation angle to 180° What's new in version 4.53 The program was created with the latest Unity LTS compiler and is delivered with an MSI installer to prevent blocked DLLs and read-only directories from causing issues. New features in this version include automatic online and offline updates. Starting from this version, the program can update itself automatically online or manually through copied update files. What's new in version 4.50 1) tablename.bat files will launch corectly. 2) Autoupdate-function added. Please check if /vrkauncher4/update/xdelta.exe is not blocked! Otherwise the update will not work. To activate autoupdates you have to setup settings in config.xml to: <autoupdate>1</autoupdate> Problems: to fix update pls check /vrlauncher4/update/ ✅ check if the xdelta.exe in this folder is not blocked. ✅ check if update_{YOUVERSION}.zip was downloaded ✅ there is a file version.cfg - check if it‘s {YOURVERSION}. if not, zip was not extracted ✅ set version in version.cfg back to {YOURVERSION} to reset update ✅ restart launcher What's new in Version 4.36 <suspendmode>4</suspendmode> Launcher4 will stay alive without animation and userinteractions until vpx finishes. Launcher4's CPU-usage is low. Good loading-times.

Thank you to 32assassin for giving me permission to update this table! Also thank you to the VPW team for testing (especially Thalamus, Apophis, Bord, Rothbaurerw, leojreimroc, Sixtoe, and PinStratsDan)! Pharaoh (Williams 1981) is one of the four double playfield machines designed by Williams in 1980-81 (others are Black Knight, Jungle Lord and Solar Fire). It heavily uses the magna saves, and has lots of drop targets and other things to shoot for. Like Solar Fire, the captive ball is a tough shot, and there are other "tombs" that you can shoot the ball into. Updates in Version 2.0 done by UnclePaulie. Added VR, Desktop, and cab hybrid modes. Updated physics, drop targets, flippers, dynamic shadows, and lots of other updates to the VPW standards. Also added 3D inserts, updated lighting, the latest VPW physics, sounds, sling corrections and GI brightness and fading routines. Some other various fixes done. I also updated the desktop backglass as well as the VR animated backglass and other VR options. There are also some performance improvements, and I added a playfield mesh for upper and lower playfields, so there's a realistic bevel in the saucers. There are several options in the script. Including VR, ball brightness, and LUT lighting options. Since this table heavily relies on the usage of the magnasave buttons, the LUT changes are done by holding cntl (or left mangasave) and then while holding, scroll through the options with the right magnasave. This is a hybrid table, and it will automatically choose between desktop and cabinet, however, if you are playing in VR, you MUST change VR_Room to 1 in the script. Additional options in the script include two VR environments, a VR clock, and settings for dynamic shadows if you experience a performance hit, Thanks to everyone that helped!- 51 comments

View File Elektra (Bally 1981) w VR Room A version of Elektra VPX was originally done by 32assassin and artwork by Fancisco666. However in this release, images of the playfields and plastics were obtained off the web, and upscaled and cleaned up by redbone. Since the hole placements were different, there was lots of effort to move, resize, and edit most of all the elements. This is a really fun table to play... as it was the first pinball machine that had three different levels to it. Included in this Version 2.0 is Hybrid VR/desktop/cabinet modes, new upscaled playfields, VPW physics, flipper tricks, dynamic shadows, Fleep sounds, Lampz, 3D inserts, new baked general illumination lighting, sling corrections, drop and stand-up targets, saucers, playfield meshes, various primitives, etc. Significant time was spent on researching online videos, to ensure accuracy of shots, ball drops, kickouts, and overall playability. I also created a desktop backglass with a cool lighting effect, as well as the VR backglass and other VR options. There are also some performance improvements, and I added a playfield mesh for the playfield, so there's a realistic bevel in the saucers. I would like to thank redbone for the graphics help, and Tomate for working the 4 ramps into blender with collision and textures. He also baked them in as well. And thank you to iaakki for baking in all the GI lighting and shadows. It looks so relistic!! And I would additional like to thank the VPW team for testing and feedback, especially Apophis, PinStratsDan, Sixtoe, BountyBob, TastyWasps, leojreimroc, and Bord. There are several options in the script. Including VR, ball brightness, and LUT lighting options. The LUT changes are done by holding cntl (or left mangasave) and then while holding, scroll through the options with the right magnasave. The Dip Switch settings are done in the script and are hardcoded. IF... you want to change them, there's a setting in the script to manually override that, and then use F6 during gameplay to bring up the Dip Switch setting. This is a hybrid table done in VPX 10.74, and I have code in here to automatically choose between VR, desktop, and cabinet. Additional VR options in the script include two VR environments, a VR clock, a topper, posters, and settings for dynamic shadows if you experience a performance hit. Thanks again to Redbone, Tomate, iaakki, and the VPW team! There are two great b2s's out there... one by Wildman (https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/4963-elektra-bally-1981/), and one by Hauntfreaks if you would like the full dmd version (https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/12470-elektra-bally-1981-prototype-b2s-with-full-dmd/). I used Wildman's image in the VR backglass. Submitter UnclePaulie Submitted 05/17/2023 Category VPX - Pinball Tables

Barracora (Williams 1981) is one of several Williams System 7 machines, AND was designed by Roger Sharpe, and had 2,350 units made. It's a fun, fast table and higher scores are pretty achievable... 1M-2.5M is a good game. If you can get to 4-5M that is a very high score. I made Barracora a few years ago and was the first table I did with Redbone. I've learned so much more since then, and physics, graphics and everything is leaps further now, I decided to redo the table. when looking at the old table I realized there were so many things that weren't just right in my opinion I decided to completely start over from scratch. @redbone completely redid the playfield and Hauntfreaks redid the backglass images. This 3.0 version utilizes the latest VPW standards, physics, alllamps and 3D inserts, backglass for desktop, roth targets, standalone compatibility, sling corrections, updated flipper physics, VR and fully hybrid, Flupper style bumpers and lighting. Baked GI, walls, and created a playfield mesh for the saucer physics. Dozens of hours were spent studying gameplay videos to match the table shots and action. Thanks to the VPW team for the thorough testing! Once again, I've included several options in the F12 menu including various balls, ball brightness, flippers, caps, plastic edge colors, LUTs, and other VR stuff, including LED undercab lighting, and an AI generated topper as an option based on H.R. Giger's 1974 painting called, Li I. (this was the inspiration of the Barracora lady). For the ROM settings... The baseline comes pretty much correct except for the high score to date is defaulted to 2.5M and the coins are defaulted to one credit is 3 games. I've included a .nvram file that will adjust the coin/credits to 1 coin is 1 credit. Also, I've set the default high score to 100,000 (2.5 million is too high to achieve, and I was not able to save zero as the high score).

View File Alien Star (Gottlieb 1984) Gottlieb's 1984 Alien Star! Journey to an Alien Star for a pinball battle in space! Multiball, skill shots, and plenty of fast action! So much fun to play! Thanks to Borgdog for providing original playfield and plastic scans, cabinet stencils, and physical measurements of his actual table. He also had lots of authentic Gottlieb primitives to use, and did a tremendous amount of testing! Thanks also to @redbone who took those scans of the playfield and plastics and did a tremendous amount of work to get them to look so good! He also spent a ton of time with all the other graphics on the table as well as a ton of testing! Hauntfreaks provided the higher resolution VR backglass. DarthVito did the VR wall environment. In Version 3.0.0 (May 2025), I started the table over completely from scratch, as the prior version had incorrect table dimensions, wrong VR cab size, and lots of other things that needed updating. I updated to the latest VPW (2025) standards, physics, alllamps and 3D inserts, backglass for desktop, roth standup targets, standalone compatibility, sling corrections, optional DIP adjustments, updated flipper physics, VR and fully hybrid, Flupper style bumpers and lighting. I baked the GI, AND the metal walls, interior wood walls, spinner, plastic posts, and the reflections on them. Redbone further updated the playfield, the plastics, apron, and other images. Thanks to Borgdog for original playfield scans, image assets, and cab stencils. Dozens and dozens of hours were spent studying gameplay videos, many of which were done by Borgdog, to match the table skill shots and action. This table is loaded with options in the F12; including various balls, room brightness, flippers, tents, screw caps, plastic edge colors, LUTs, Dip settings, side wall colors, special Mother of Pearl solid inserts, and plenty of other VR stuff, including LED undercab lighting. The ROM can be found at pinballnirvana.com... alienstr.zip). Please NOTE there are several items to consider on the ROM settings: The default settings for the ROM options are hard coded into the script and are based on the recommended values from Gottlieb for 3 balls. If you want to change the ROM settings themselves, you need to change the "SetDIPSwitches to 1" in the script, and then use the F6 menu to change. However... I am not able to hard code the ROM menu options. Typically, there are levels of score achievements that award a free play. The default ROM has that set to off. I've included an nvram file you can use that sets that to match the instruction/score cards and Gottlieb's recommendation (600,000 and 1,400,000). Also, there are settings in the menu to set replays, sound, and HSTD. All this has been done for you in the included nvram file. I also have instructions in the script on how to change that if you wish to do yourself. There's also an option for "Tourney Mode". In that mode it'll play a little harder with different DIP settings, which excludes extra ball... and only allows for points on 3 balls. Tourney mode also sets colors and rainbow'ed LEDs on plastics. NOTE: you'll have to start and restart the first time in that mode for the DIP changes to take effect. If you want to change the DIPs... you will need to go into the script options and change SetDIPSwitches to 1, then open the table, hit F6 (that'll load the default DIPS and display them). You can then select various ROM options. Once entered, you can exit out, and restart. That will then set the new ROM settings. These are the default DIPS that are and set at original table launch: 1=Coin Chute same 0=3rd coin chute no effect 0=Game mode of replay for hitting threshold 1=Number of balls = 3 0=Unlimited number of replays can be earned per game 1=Playfield Special of extra ball (Tourney mode this is zero) 0=Novelty of normal game mode (Tourney mode this set to 1) 1=Match feature 1=Background Sound Thanks again to Borgdog and Redbone for the playfield and plastic images, the stencils, the testing, and all the feedback!

"You wanted the best, you've got the best!! Kiss!" Bally's 1979 Kiss had a production run of 17,000 units, it is the seventh most produced pinball machine in history. The theme is based upon the legendary self proclaimed "Greatest Band in the World", Kiss. Featuring members from the 1977 group costume era. Thanks to @redbone for creating a high resolution playfield from various sources, including a high resolution playfield overlay scan provided from ClarkKent. Redbone spent countless hours stitching, updating, and touching up the playfield to get looking as close to an actual full, high-resolution scan. He also assisted on so many other graphics including the plastics, flippers, spinners, apron, and targets! Also thanks to Hauntfreaks, as I used his brand new backglass for VR. This table was done from scratch placing everything, and implementing the latest VPW (2025) standards, physics, alllamps and 3D inserts, backglass for desktop, roth drop and standup targets, standalone compatibility, sling corrections, optional DIP adjustments, updated flipper physics, VR and fully hybrid, Flupper style bumpers and lighting. I also baked the GI and interior wood walls. I've once again studied hours of videos to ensure accurate placement, gameplay, bounces, physics, etc. This table requires BOTH the kisse.zip AND the kiss.zip ROMs to work. I've provided a .nvram file for the ROM menu settings, and I've hard coded the DIP switch settings as usual. This table is loaded with options in the F12. Various balls, ball brightness, flippers, screw caps, spinners, targets, aprons, pegs, plastic edge colors, LUTs, Dip settings, and plenty of other VR stuff, including LED undercab lighting. Please NOTE there are several items to consider on the ROM settings: The default settings for the ROM options are hard coded into the script and are based on the recommended values from Bally for 3 ball conservative play. If you want to change the ROM settings themselves, you need to change the "SetDIPSwitches to 1" in the script, and then use the F6 menu to change. However... I am not able to hard code the ROM menu options. Typically, there are levels of score achievements that award a free play. The default ROM has that set to off. I've included an nvram file you can use that sets that to match the instruction/score cards and Bally's recommendation (280,000 and 520,000).

Batman 66 Original Original table based on the 1979 Williams table, Flash. This table is the child of LuvtheCubs-jpsalas-Onevox This is LuvtheCubs first attempt at a VPX table. This is a re-themed version of JP Salas' and Onevox's Williams The Flash (1979). Not to be confused with the Stern version. Thanks to JP and Onevox for giving me permission to bring this table to VR. LuvtheCubs has a permission to mod on VPforum. The DirectB2S is included in the zip. The table requires the Flash (L-1) - ROM - flash_l1.zip. If you have the pup pack, I suggest setting all the videos to play on screen 1, DMD forced On. Background playlist as topper (and topper_1.mp4). Looks great 🙂 . I use the alias feature for vpinmame so you can change the rom name in the script to a name similar to flash_l1 (eg flash_l1bm) and add the translation in the alias file (VPMAlias.txt) in the vpinmame folder and add the line flash_l1bm,flash_l1. You can change the ROM name in the script to the pup pack ROM (and the DMD.visible command). Change the pupvideo folder to the new rom name. These are some extra instructions for using a pup pack over that listed above PUP pack - edit PUP pack positions to use backglass on second screen x/y (0,0) [on second screen !!] & 800 v 400 (assuming screen 2 is 800 x 600) - edit PUP pack positions to use DMD on second screen x/y (0,400) [on second screen !!] & 800 v 200 (assuming screen 2 is 800 x 600)[so under backglass] - edit B2S screen res file so the b2s backglass is at screen 2, x/y (0,0) & 800 v 400 (assuming screen 2 is 800 x 600) - edit DmdDevice.ini and point the virtual DMD coordinates at the pup pack dmd coordinates as below use VPM's registry values when positioning the virtual dmd useregistry = false ; x-axis of the window position (this assumes screen 1 is 1920x1080 - change left depending on your screen res) left = 1920 ; y-axis of the window position top = 400 ; width of the dmd in monitor pixels (this assumes second screen is 800x600) width = 800 ; height of the dmd in monitor pixels height = 200 In the PUP pack ROM, a .bat file (pupinit.bat) maybe needed to layer the screens (DMD and backglass and b2s). Consider if you require after trying to play code needed is: cd /d "%~dp0..\..\" start "" pupwinpos.exe "PUPSCREEN1*" -1 2 0 start "" pupwinpos.exe "Form1" 1 2 0 start "" pupwinpos.exe "Virtual*" 1 1 0 start "" pupwinpos.exe "Visual Pinball Player*" -2 2 1 Script: - find "Const cGameName" and change to the ROM name for PUP pack - under cGameName is a dmd.visible command. change to 1 to display dmd All the best- 5 comments

"Thou art gazing at the brightest star of all." Star Gazer (Stern 1980) is an addicting game with 3 spinners and concave scoops feeding the flippers. It's fast and lots of points can be achieved with building the values of bonus and spinners. Even though there were only 869 units produced this is very much a "gotta play again" table. One of the "best spinner" games out there. Thanks to apophis for providing a playfield scan to @redbone. And especially thanks to Redbone for prepping and cleaning the playfield as well as other images, plastics, targets, etc. Also thanks to HauntFreaks for providing the VR backglass images (redraws by Felsi). And again thanks to Apophis for guidance on blender to bake the metal walls to be shiny, as well as some performance enhancements. This table was done from scratch placing everything, and implementing the latest VPW (2025) standards, physics, alllamps and 3D inserts, backglass for desktop, roth targets, standalone compatibility, sling corrections, optional DIP adjustments, updated flipper physics, VR and fully hybrid, Flupper style bumpers and lighting. I also baked the GI and interior wood and metal walls. I've once again studied hours of videos to ensure accurate placement, gameplay, bounces, physics, etc. Lots of time was spent on getting the spinners timed correctly, and shots matching video play. I've provided a .nvram file for the ROM menu settings, and I've hard coded the DIP switch settings as usual. This table is loaded with options in the F12. Various balls, ball brightness, flasher options, flippers, screw caps, plastic edge colors, LUTs, Dip settings, and plenty of other VR stuff, including LED undercab lighting. Please NOTE there are several items to consider on the ROM settings: The default settings for the ROM options are hard coded into the script and are based on the recommended values from Stern for 3 balls.

View File Barracora (Williams 1981) A version of Barracora VPX was originally done by Dids and GtxJoe, however in this release, nearly everything was done or redone from scratch. The original table size was incorrect, which required me to completely redo everything like I did on Jungle Lord. The more I worked on this... the more I just redid everything... primitives, sounds, images, etc. Love this table... as its another great early 80's Williams table like Black Knight, Solar Fire, Jungle Lord, Pharaoh, etc. This has a very complicated ruleset, but excellent game play, as well as challenging lock shots and hungry outlanes! Table instructions are included in the Table info section, and there's a great tutorial by PAPA online. Included in this Version 2.0 is Hybrid VR/desktop/cabinet modes, new upscaled playfield, VPW physics, flipper tricks, dynamic shadows, Fleep sounds, Lampz, 3D inserts, new general illumination lighting, sling corrections, drop and stand-up targets, saucers, playfield mesh, various primitives, etc. Significant time was spent on researching online videos, to ensure accuracy of shots, ball drops, kickouts, and overall playability. I also created a desktop backglass with a cool lighting effect, as well as the VR backglass and other VR options. There are also some performance improvements, and I added a playfield mesh for the playfield, so there's a realistic bevel in the saucers. I would like to thank the VPW team for testing and feedback (especially Apophis, Tomate, Smaug, FriscoPinball, Bountybob, Lumi, Bietekwiet, Armyaviation, Wylte and all others who tested!) And... an additional thank you to Tomate for providing the lower rail primitive. There are several options in the script. Including VR, ball brightness, LUT lighting options, and you can turn the bell off if you don't like that sound. The LUT changes are done by holding cntl (or left mangasave) and then while holding, scroll through the options with the right magnasave. This is a hybrid table done in VPX 10.72, and I have code in here to automatically choose between VR, desktop, and cabinet. Additional options in the script include two VR environments, a VR clock, a topper, posters, and settings for dynamic shadows if you experience a performance hit Thanks again to the VPW team for feedback! There are two great b2s's out there... one by Wildman (https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/4220-barracora-williams-1981/), and one by Hauntfreaks if you would like the full dmd version (https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/12399-barracora-williams-1981-b2s-with-full-dmd/).

Originally done by mfuegemann, and then version 102a released by:Goldchicco & 32assassin. Thank you to Goldchicco for giving me permission to update this table! Also thank you to Apophis, Wylte, Smaug, and PinstratsDan for testing and feedback! This is a lower production 80s Williams table, but LOTs of fun to play. There is a lot to do on this table with all the targets to hit to enable other functions. You'll find similarities to Black Knight, Grand Lizard, and other tables of that era. This table significantly utilizes magnasaves to keep your ball from going into the outlanes. (see the rulesheet I typed up in the table info section for how to enable that and more). Updates in Version 2.0 done by UnclePaulie. Added VR, Desktop, and cab hybrid modes. Updated physics, drop targets, flippers, dynamic shadows, and lots of other updates to the VPW standards. Also added 3D inserts, updated lighting, the latest VPW physics, sounds, sling corrections and GI brightness and fading routines. Some other various fixes done, including a lot of work on the solar gun operation. I also updated the desktop backglass as well as the VR backglass and other VR options. There are also some performance improvements, and I added a playfield mesh for upper and lower playfields, so there's a realistic bevel in the saucers. There are several options in the script. Including VR, ball brightness, and LUT lighting options. Since this table heavily relies on the usage of the magnasave buttons, the LUT changes are done by holding cntl (or left mangasave) and then while holding, scroll through the options with the right magnasave. This is a hybrid table, and it will automatically choose between desktop and cabinet, however, if you are playing in VR, you MUST change VR_Room to 1 in the script. Additional options in the script include two VR environments, a VR clock, and settings for dynamic shadows if you experience a performance hit, Thanks to everyone that helped!- 43 comments

Version 2.0 by UnclePaulie 2023 This version was done with my Medusa table and other recent Bally tables as a baseline to start, since they were Bally 1981. Built everything ground up from there. Used a few prims and images from Goldchicco's prior table, as well as some logic. I used EBisLit's playfield as a baseline, and Redbone did lots graphics updates to that playfield, as well as the plastics, targets, apron, flippers, and many others. The VPW team did lots of testing and recommended that I use Circus's VR room as an option, as it has you playing on the ocean floor with fish swimming around you, so his very cool environment is also included, and is the default environment for VR users. Thanks to Circus for permission! Included in this Version 2.0 is Hybrid VR/desktop/cabinet modes, new playfield, VPW physics, flipper tricks, dynamic shadows, Fleep sounds, Lampz, 3D inserts, new baked general illumination lighting and AO shadows, sling corrections, drop and stand-up targets, saucer, playfield meshes, various primitives, etc. Significant time was spent on researching online videos, to ensure accuracy of shots, ball drops, kickouts, and overall playability. I also created a desktop backglass with a lighting effect, as well as the VR backglass (image from Hauntfreaks) and other VR options. There are also some performance improvements and I added a playfield mesh for the playfield, so there's a realistic bevel in the saucer. Thank you to EBisLit for the playfield image, and Redbone for upscaling and cleaning up the all the images. Thank you to Circus for the ocean VR environment. And thank you to the VPW team for testing, especially redbone, apophis, bountybob, dgrimmreaper, studlygoorite, pinstratsdan, wylte, trytotilt, bietekwiet, astronasty, and hauntfreaks. There are several options in the script. Including VR rooms and environments, ball brightness, ocean environment sounds, and LUT lighting options. The LUT changes are done by holding cntl (or left mangasave) and then while holding, scroll through the options with the right magnasave. The Dip Switch settings are done in the script and are hardcoded. IF... you want to change them, there's a setting in the script to manually override that, and then use F6 during gameplay to bring up the Dip Switch setting. This is a hybrid table done in VPX 10.74 (but will run fine in 10.8), and I have code in here to automatically choose between VR, desktop, and cabinet. Additional VR options in the script include three VR environments, a VR clock, a topper, posters, and settings for dynamic shadows if you experience a performance hit. Thanks again to the VPW team for all the testing, Circus for the Ocean VR environment, and Redbone for all the graphics enhancements! -

I baked the GI, AND the metal walls, interior wood walls, spinner, plastic posts, and the reflections on them. Redbone further updated the playfield, the plastics, apron, and other images. Thanks to Borgdog for original playfield scans, image assets, and cab stencils. Dozens and dozens of hours were spent studying gameplay videos, many of which were done by Borgdog, to match the table skill shots and action. This table is loaded with options in the F12; including various balls, room brightness, flippers, tents, screw caps, plastic edge colors, LUTs, Dip settings, side wall colors, special Mother of Pearl solid inserts, and plenty of other VR stuff, including LED undercab lighting. The ROM can be found at pinballnirvana.com... alienstr.zip). Please NOTE there are several items to consider on the ROM settings: The default settings for the ROM options are hard coded into the script and are based on the recommended values from Gottlieb for 3 balls. If you want to change the ROM settings themselves, you need to change the "SetDIPSwitches to 1" in the script, and then use the F6 menu to change. However... I am not able to hard code the ROM menu options. Typically, there are levels of score achievements that award a free play. The default ROM has that set to off. I've included an nvram file you can use that sets that to match the instruction/score cards and Gottlieb's recommendation (600,000 and 1,400,000). Also, there are settings in the menu to set replays, sound, and HSTD. All this has been done for you in the included nvram file. I also have instructions in the script on how to change that if you wish to do yourself. There's also an option for "Tourney Mode". In that mode it'll play a little harder with different DIP settings, which excludes extra ball... and only allows for points on 3 balls. Tourney mode also sets colors and rainbow'ed LEDs on plastics. NOTE: you'll have to start and restart the first time in that mode for the DIP changes to take effect. If you want to change the DIPs... you will need to go into the script options and change SetDIPSwitches to 1, then open the table, hit F6 (that'll load the default DIPS and display them). You can then select various ROM options. Once entered, you can exit out, and restart. That will then set the new ROM settings. These are the default DIPS that are and set at original table launch: 1=Coin Chute same 0=3rd coin chute no effect 0=Game mode of replay for hitting threshold 1=Number of balls = 3 0=Unlimited number of replays can be earned per game 1=Playfield Special of extra ball (Tourney mode this is zero) 0=Novelty of normal game mode (Tourney mode this set to 1) 1=Match feature 1=Background Sound Thanks again to Borgdog and Redbone for the playfield and plastic images, the stencils, the testing, and all the feedback! Also thanks to Hauntfreaks for the updated Backglass images. Also thanks to everyone else from the VPW team that provided testing and feedback!

Bally's Safe Cracker combines pinball and board games! The goal is to advance to the board game for a chance to break into the safe while avoiding obstacles along the way. Players spin and stop the safe dial to determine how many spaces to advance. The player can collect winnings and resume playing pinball after each dial spin, or spin again and risk losing it all. Players must risk it all for a chance to break into the bank vault and win the token award. The original 1.0 version was done by fuzzel, flupper1, rothbauerw; with the VR room originally being done by b4ast1. Apophis requested that I update the table with an updated playfield scan from EBisLit, and include all the new VPW code, 3D inserts, hybrid mode, physics, drop, standup, and vari-targets, bumpers, flashers, playfield mesh, fleep sounds, etc. Redbone further cleaned the playfield up, as well as some other images. I was able to bake the GI lights using blender light maps to make it look as real as possible (thanks for teaching me, apophis!), as well as implementing a pwm approach to the fading. I've also included other VR rooms, a topper, a flasher/siren, and F12 options. I reused the ramps and other prims from fuzzel's table, as well several pieces of code from rothbauerw. Other options in the script include a constant called, "useownb2s". If you set this to 1, you will turn off the desktop built in backglass. This is for desktop users that want to use a b2s backglass, not the built in one. MAGIC TOKENs... if you win the board game, the table will issue you a magic token (you'll see the coin roll down). How the ROM works... is the next game played will force you to use the magic token/s that you've won, and you play a 4 ball multiball for 90 seconds. Awesome! But you need to earn the tokens... REQUIREMENTS: ROMs: You will need two ROMs: A percentaging version is for the number of tokens issued is limited based on the game's earnings, and in a home environment you want to be able to obtain tokens.

Version 2.0 by UnclePaulie 2023 This version done with UnclePaulie's Medusa as a baseline to start, since both were Bally 1981. Built everything ground up from there. Included in this Version 2.0 is Hybrid VR/desktop/cabinet modes, enhanced playfield, VPW physics, flipper tricks, dynamic shadows, Fleep sounds, Lampz, 3D inserts, new baked general illumination lighting and AO shadows, sling corrections, drop and stand-up targets, saucer, playfield meshes, various primitives, etc. Significant time was spent on researching online videos, to ensure accuracy of shots, ball drops, kickouts, and overall playability. I also created a desktop backglass with a cool lighting effect, as well as the VR backglass and other VR options. There are also some performance improvements, and I added a playfield mesh for the playfield, so there's a realistic bevel in the saucer. Thank you to Redbone, Movieguru, and Hauntfreaks for the updated graphics. The playfield used was upscaled by Movieguru, and then later enhanced by Redbone. Redbone also enhanced several other graphics as well. The VR Backglass was originally by Wildman, and Hauntfreaks enhanced it. And thank you to the VPW team for testing, especially PinstratsDan, Apophis, Tastywasps, Hauntfreaks, Wylte, jsm174, somatik, and bietekwiet! NOTE: This table is a widebody. It doesn't fit in a pincab like other standard width tables. I have a 1:1 ratio'ed pov in the vpx file, however I've included another pov if you'd like it stretched to fit the whole cab (this will distort/stretch all images, however). Also NOTE: There are a few ROMs available. This orginal table used a 6 digit LED for player scores. Later there was a ROM that updated to a 7 digit. I have decided to implement ONLY the 7 digit ROM, embryond.zip. (this way when you score a lot, you can see the full score...). This is important to get the B2S that supports the 7 digit ROM. Wildman's and Hauntfreaks both support it, they are on VPU. There are several options in the script. Including VR, ball brightness, and LUT lighting options. The LUT changes are done by holding cntl (or left mangasave) and then while holding, scroll through the options with the right magnasave. The Dip Switch settings are done in the script and are hardcoded. IF... you want to change them, there's a setting in the script to manually override that, and then use F6 during gameplay to bring up the Dip Switch setting. This is a hybrid table done in VPX 10.74, and I have code in here to automatically choose between VR, desktop, and cabinet. Additional VR options in the script include two VR environments, a VR clock, a topper, posters, and settings for dynamic shadows if you experience a performance hit. Thanks again to Redbone, PinstratsDan, Apophis, Tastywasps, Movieguru, Hauntfreaks, Wylte, jsm174, somatik, bietekwiet, and the VPW team!
