[QUOTE="Jeff Strong, post: 194938, member: 3"] It's really not hard if you know your way around windows. It's basically just a matter of installing/updating the software and knowing which folders to put the table and ROM files into. I'd be happy to help you get going. This may look long, but it's only because I'll be very detailed. It's really only 3 steps: 1.) Install the software 2.) Update your scripts 3.) Download Tables....that's really all there is to it. :cool: 1.) So start by downloading and installing the latest version of VP [URL="http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=8793"][B]HERE[/B][/URL] (after you click the green "download" button and agree to the terms, select the file labled "VPinball991_Full.zip") Then download and install VPinmame: [url]http://vpuniverse.com/forums/files/file/2480-vpinmame-sampindmdunity-unified-version/[/url] 2.) After installing that, just one final step: you'll need to update your VBS scripts by [URL="http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=17"][B]downloading this[/B][/URL]. All you need to do is extract that into your Tables folder and overwrite as needed. Unless you changed it in your installation options, it's usually found here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Visual Pinball\Tables 3.) Now you're ready to play! See, that was a piece of cake! :D Just download some tables and roms and you're ready to rock. If you have some specific tables you'd like to try I can link you to the best versions and the ROMs (you have to download ROMs seperately). The trick is to download tables that are made for this version of VP (don't download really old stuff or you'll need to install VP 8 as well...there's plenty of new stuff to keep you busy). So the easiest way to find the right tables is to go to vpforums.org, on the top menu click on Visual Pinball tables, then under "VP 9 Desktop Tables" click on VPM or VP Recreations and then sort the results by most recent. Tables go into your Tables folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Visual Pinball\Tables Now if you don't know what ROM you need, but you have the table downloaded and in the proper folder, go ahead open VP, go to File >> Open...then select a table. Then once it's loaded go to Table >> Play...it will tell you what ROM you need to download. You can find the ROMs on VPforums.org as well. You don't need to extract them.
