I actually played on one of these virtual pinball tables just recently and was highly impressed at how 'real' the whole thing felt. I can see why it would hold a lot of fascination - making these things must be great fun. It's enough to make me wish I had the time to learn to make them myself. But well done to you sir - this is great work. Post by Vizu // Mar 15, 2006, 1:43pm Vizu Total Posts: 628 Scapino ! You do a amazing job with it.

Quality work! Post by scapino // Mar 16, 2006, 6:58am scapino Total Posts: 101 Thanks, all! There are all kinds of tutorials, and other help at VPForums. The best way to learn is to just dive in, with a blank table, and start adding and codeing stuff. Make a Visual Pinball table first, where the entire table behavior is coded in the VP script (Its visual basic, so its easy.) When you get better at it you can tackle an emulated table, by interfacing your Visual pinball code with the VPMame .dll calls, which is what I did with this table. In many ways it is easier, because the emulation handles all the behavior. You are only passing switch hits to the emu, and getting back info on solinoid, score and lights states. Kurt
