An explanation of what the "units" mean: 50 units = 1 pinball diameter = 1.0625 inches. 1 unit = 0.02125 inches, 1 inch ≈ 47 units

Yes finally! I’ve been struggling to just tweak existing tables, let alone start from scratch. So many rare tables need to be converted from VP9 to VPX and I want to give back to such an open sourced community by doing my part while also making sure it’s high quality. For example I’m working on an improved Orbitor 1 at a snails pace because I can’t get the outside perimeter wall to perfectly stop air balls from flying out of the playfield. Such a headache but videos like this are great for motivation to keep at it. Thanks Jack!

Certain VP9 only games are so obscure, that they are way down on people’s wishlist and haven’t been finished being converted to VPX. For example: Special Force, Rotation VIII, Rat Race, Motordome, Dinosaur Eggs, Global Warfare, AG Soccer Ball, Title Fight.

I realize you are not a VPv10 developer, and I appreciate the time you took to create this much-needed video. It didn't take much use of this software to begin noticing its limitations, areas for add'l features, and overall improvement. For example, "layers" needs a complete overhaul. Dual-screen mode with real-time rendered preview would be nice. AI-enabled ball path projection lines (to ferret out skill shots, ball traps, and dead zones) would be extremely handy. It's becoming a long list... perhaps others have recommendations as well.

Nothing is preventing you to fork it and apply said improvements. At it's core it's an old software that indeed would benefit form improvements, but anyone could add all this.

After more than a year with VPX installed I finally started to work on a table. It's powerful but still feel limited in the layout if you don't do primitives. Like I can't find a smart way to do scoops, or anything with a curve as a slope. Also a tips : unlock objects to move them on an example table

Are there any virtual pinball programs that have more a visual design interface? Messed around with FuturePinball for awhile but looking at a hundred layers of wire-frame blueprints seems a little outdated & tedious. Would be nicer if there was just as advanced of a program that would let you drag & drop rendered elements in 3D. Im a coder, not an architect lol.

Nudging with the keyboard is handled in the script. Look for the text "CenterTiltKey" in the script. There should be code that looks like "If keycode = CenterTiltKey Then Nudge 0, 2". Change the second number (2) to adjust the strength of the nudge. Do the same for "LeftTiltKey" and "RightTiltKey". My preference is to have a nudge strength of 5 for the center nudge and 4 for the sideways nudges.

I was wondering the same thing. He had said in a stream that he designed the Jurassic Park home pin in VPX so I asked him on a couple other videos and Twitch stream if he would release it. He replied that he would see what he could do but it's up to Gary. So I guess it will never happen. I just wish some company would get license to all new stern games and create them so I can buy them. I will never be able to afford a real pin being disabled. FarSight Studios has/had the Stern pinball license for some tables wish they would continue them with all the newer tables.
