VPX will be the reason I can enjoy playing pinball. I can afford to play 2 times a month currently and am a bit limited to places that I have to travel about an hour to get to. Now I can use my high end PC to emulate some of the tables I want to practice, and I can play on tables I cannot find. I’m really excited to get this going on my PC
Awesome!! Wow such a great resource. Will look for your first video in hopes to find instructions on putting the pieces together for play. Been having errors when reading the properly named zipped ROM file. We shall see! Thanks again!!
Thanks Gregg! This site in particular is going to save me a lot of headaches, as I was already starting to get them going the route I used to back in the day.
Yep this is an incredibly useful app to navigate the tables and all related files while pointing people to the right source locations and communities. Definitely is a game changer when setting up and maintaining VPX! Glad it's been of help for your build! Cheers!
Awesome resource. Never visited Spacie's Arcade before. Subbed. This is an excellent resource. Guess I know what I'm doing this weekend. After I do my taxes :p
It is far better to have one pinball table that works well, than 200 tables that work OK. Quality > quantity! Always start from one and make it play great in your setup. This took me a while to realise. Check that the VPX game has Nfozzy physics. All the other games don't feel real and are usually way too easy.
@@MrSkerpentine of course that is your choise. But then you are not playing the game the way the original game was designed to play. Pinball games can be notoriously hard. Bord's latest version of Paragon is a great example. I play that game at local arcade quite a lot and I spent few weeks to make the physics as close to original as possible on it. It is super hard and punishing game irl. Common strat to tap pass to right flip works great. It is part of the fun that it is punishing. It makes you play it again and again.
@@iaakki that’s fair. Right after I posted that comment, I decided to go on the site and test some nfozzified versions of tables I’m virtually familiar with and the feeling is much closer to the few times Ive played pinball in person (aka I’m way worse lol), but I’ll hopefully slowly accustom to the change in speeds. I played the nfozzy-enabled Bord version of Batman the Dark Knight and actually beat my old high score on a non-nfozzy version so maybe it’s just a case by case basis lol
wow, this is awesome! are the most recent versions usually listed (or noted) so the link/tables goto the most up-to-date table? and/or do they list all versions, ilke the various backglasses it looks like?
Yes, default list is sorted by most recent (Last Updated). When you click on the item you then see the latest version and all previous versions, with the associated tags so you can easily work out which one is best for you.
Apologies if I missed it, but is it possible to run the games tagged with "No Rom" that don't have a ROM file linked, since you typically need to get the Table and the Rom?
Absolutely. Many of the original tables that aren't a reskin of an actual real table only have a table file and no rom. This is perfectly normal for those tables and they don't need rom files.
@@SpaciesArcade THANK YOU! I just got a new PC a few days ago to get OTG setup, and the spreadsheet I saw a week ago would not come up no matter what browser I used!
