VP Resources (76)

this are textures for fluppers domes.  If you are making a table that requires brighter textures then what is found on fluppers tables.   Read More

Scramble Playfield by Tecnoplay.  I always have been intrigued by this machine.  It uses Zaccaria parts, and it blatantly steals Raven's soundtrack, with some of its own tunes as well.  From what I gather, its a pretty rare machine, and there really isn't much out there in terms of photos so I guessed on most of the pf.  This is def. a work in progress but I have taken it as far as I can.  It's still in rough shape, but if some of you photoshop experts are bored and want a project, I gave you a nice head start on one!   I also attached the psd file so you can pick up where I left off. The fonts are not correct, I just used what I had and close enough just to make a reference point.  Most of the field is hand drawn because I only had a few pictures to work with.  Again it's in rough shape, but maybe it can help get another rare table in motion!   Heck, my Secret Service and Punk table ended up getting used and made so maybe this one has hope yet!  Enjoy!   One final note, I was unable to figure out what the big light in the middle of the playfield says.   Read More

About a year and a half ago vp user zuhieu shared his Space Hawk ref photos with me.  At the time I was looking to work on the vp9 Space Hawks table, but  lack of time I stopped.  Today, I found the folder in my drive, and figured I would share them before I end up losing them.  For those out of the loop, Space Hawks was a conversion to Cybernaut, which was just released.   Read More

Wildman recently uploaded a backglass for the shuffle board table League Champ.   It is a clone (for the most part) of strike master.  Out of boredom, I decided to see what the real differences between the tables were and it really was just the backboard and backglass.  However; there are minum resources out there for this table, so I had to make due with what I found.  Here is what I came up with.   For the life of me, I can not figure out where the lights are on this table, so I am unable to finish the lights on the new backboard.  If someone wants to use this to update their table or make it better this could be a nice starting point.   Read More

8k Resources that i made for my DW built. All resources in the table are rendered so i decided to put this here for future use! Free to use without asking for permission!   Read More

update to the short, medium and long tent lane guides from the fp primitive collection, mainly the addition of the vent holes and some smoothing of the round ends (amazing what you can see, or not, in a 4k cab). all are sized/rotated to import at 100,100,100 size, z of 0 and no rotation, so basically stick the stock primitive object on your playfield, import mesh of your choice and BOOM!   Read More

Here is my collection of sounds i had recorded for visual pinball. For the most of them i used a Akg C414 or a Shure Sm57. Some recordings are doubled with a royer labs r121. Preamps are also different. I used a Focusrite Isa1, a Mindprint Envoice and a self made tube preamp. Also a Allen/Heath Gl2400 console for lowcuts and pre eq. All sounds fade in and out, frequency is cut between 80 and 100Hz. Small compression. A lot of equalizing so no beep sounds are left. I also used some reverb with early reflection to bring back the playfield glass. Rollings sound are made for looping without any noise of a cut/crackle. This collection will grow in the future and i will update it from time to time.       Read More

updated Gottlieb Ball Gate brackets and flap. Includes somewhat lower poly version ones for those that want that sort of thing. Made off measurements from real ones, as close as I could make it. SEE INSTALLATION NOTES, PLEASE.   Read More

Here is a gottlieb system 80 widebody apron made from measurements of a Time Line apron.  There are two primitive included; one that has holes cut out for apron displays such as Pink Panther and Eclipse use, and one without the holes like Punk and Amazing Spider-Man use. A photoshop file included with sample apron images, I have not had time to go through like I did for my other aprons and set them up for easy color changes, maybe in an update. A stripped vpx file enclosed for easy copy/paste and to see how to setup the instruction cards. SEE INSTALLATION NOTES FOR INSTALLATION NOTES.   Read More

This is a template table I use mainly for parts to copy and paste, but also for script to copy and paste into new EM table builds.  I thought it might be useful for someone if they wanted to start building tables. This is geared for Gottlieb tables with Gottlieb flippers, bumper caps, kicker hole and sounds. It has example parts and script for many common things like targets, drop targets, kicker hole, bumpers, animated rubbers, etc. Primitives from Dark, zany, sliderpoint, hauntfreaks and others. Also contains my option menu setup (thanks gnance and loserman76 for the idea) with changeable instruction and replay cards based on the options menu settings. Contains rothbauerw's ball control script and ninuzzu's ball shadow script. High score sticky note scripting borrowed from mfuegemann's Fast Draw table, with my own images. Setup with latest 10.4 beta surround sound scripting (not perfect, but it's in there). Has a stripped version of my Royal Flush backglass that works with it. This is certainly not the only way to do any of this, and there are probably better ways to do a lot of it, but it is a start :)  I will try to keep things up to date as vp gets updated, but no promises. Note also this is a 42" table template for later Gottlieb EM's and could also be used for a system 1 base (same size) but the scripting would be totally different and probably easier to start with an existing system 1.  This could fairly easily be made into a earlier 41" Gottlieb table by resizing in Dimensions and Slope and moving the lower 1/3 up.   Read More

NOW with new Gottlieb Ball Gate and Flap primitives Here are 3d models of a couple different Gottlieb aprons, their plunger cover, and a basic arch that fits most of their standard body games from early 70s em's through the system 80 era. Includes photoshop files with images for all those, setup so that you just need to change/select a background color, then change the color overlays on the appropriate layers to get the scheme you need for your tables. A stripped down vpx table is also included for easy copy/paste if that's your thing. I have no illusions about ever creating 3d models like the talented guys around here, but I thought I'd give a go at making some basics that I wanted for my builds.  These are likely not perfect reproductions, but they are pretty darn close based off measurements of parts I have.  I did have to do some guessing on the older em apron as I do not own one of those. as usual feel free to adjust/change/modify/hack whatever you wish to do on these. SEE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR SOME BASIC USE GUIDELINES.   Read More

A pack of new meshes for Gottliebs with rounded 2 inch flippers. These are found in many Gottliebs from the 1960s and were replaced by the flat top embossed ones sometime in the late 60s. All are modeled from scratch based on a flipper size of vp base radius 20, end radius 13, length 83. @loserman 76 tested and approved. Pack includes: L/R flipper bat L/R flipper bat/rubber combo rubber mesh L/R texture w/text L/R texture w/o text L/R text alpha mask These came in all different color combinations over the years. White on blue text seems to be the most common so I included that as a texture. Also included in this pack is a text alpha layer so that you can make any color combination of text/flipper that you like without losing the shading. Just give the alpha your desired text color and select the flipper part of the texture and multiply any color you like over it. Separate bat and rubber meshes allow you to assign unique materials and only use one texture. There is a rubber/flipper combo mesh included here for the lazy, but FFS don't use it. You'll only embarrass yourself.   Read More

A pack of new meshes for Gottlieb's with 2 inch flippers. These are found in many Gottliebs from the 1960s and 1970s. All are modeled from scratch based on a flipper size of vp base radius 20, end radius 13, length 83. All are @borgdog tested and approved. Pack includes: L/R flipper bat w/ text mesh L/R flipper bat w/o text mesh flat rubber mesh round rubber mesh L/R texture w/text and round rubber L/R texture w/o text and round rubber L/R texture w/ text and flat rubber L/R texture w/o text and flat rubber UVs for all textures These should give you plenty of options and allow you to use one texture but set separate materials for flipper and rubber.   Read More

This file contains new meshes and textures for classic Gottlieb flippers. Gottlieb flipper/rubber mesh Gottlieb flipper bat mesh Gottlieb flipper rubber mesh pre-rendered greyscale texture for user customization textures for red/yellow/blue/black rubber Use the flipper/rubber mesh and a color texture and get started right away or use the separate flipper bat and rubber meshes with the greyscale texture and customize your color and look using VPX materials (recommended). Flipper scales correctly at x,y,z 100, z position = 0, and rotates on rotz.   Read More

https://skfb.ly/6yKqY The Ringmaster from Circus Voltaire was taken off the table and scanned in 3D using a 3D laser scanner by randr. 3D model scans are fairly accurate but present a number of challenges before they can be useful in any type of gaming engine. I 'polished' the 3d scan model, smoothing out some of the bumpiness that's a side effect of the scanning process.  I re-mesh the model to give it an optimized mesh/topology and project the details of the high resolution polished scan. Randr took a number of HD photos which I used to texture map the model, I've provided a 'complete map' and a 'diffuse map'.  The diffuse map has no lighting or shadows baked into it in the event you want to either bake your own lighting/shadows or at some point lighting and shadows are handled by a 3D game engine (VPX11 maybe). I've also provided a normals bump map which gives the model the illusion of much higher detail.  I made the top section of the ring master a separate object in the event a separate material is needed for it or it need's some adjustment to fit the table nicely.  So included are two objs, one of the ringmaster head and one for the "spell WoW" cylinder top.   Read More

Borgdog collected and standardized this collection of primitive kickarms featuring a Bally arm, a Gottlieb one, and the plastic tip one from the default table. These are all sized, rotated and origined together so they are easily substituted with each other. All scale in at 100,100,100; put Z at about -30 (adjust to taste); use ObjRotZ to orient facing how you want in the table, then RotX with positive numbers to animate with the script below. Sub RightSlingShot_Slingshot PlaySoundAtVol SoundFXDOF(”right_slingshot”,105,DOFPulse,DOFContactors), slingR, 1 DOF 106,DOFPulse addscore 10 RSling.Visible = 0 RSling1.Visible = 1 slingR.rotx = 20 RStep = 1 RightSlingShot.TimerEnabled = 1 End Sub Sub RightSlingShot_Timer Select Case RStep Case 3:RSLing1.Visible = 0:RSLing2.Visible = 1:slingR.rotx = 10 Case 4: slingR.rotx = 0:RSLing2.Visible = 0:RSLing.Visible = 1:RightSlingShot.TimerEnabled = 0 End Select RStep = RStep + 1 End Sub   Read More

https://skfb.ly/6wT8q I made a sculpt of a Ninja turtle and then used normals bump mapping on the low poly version of it.  I made it so the texture maps are interchangeable so that one model can be any one of the four turtles by swapping out maps.  I based it mostly off an old playmate toy I still have but wrd also had lots of great photos. Accessories all share a texture map, this includes the turtles belt and weapons. If you use credit me.   Read More

this is a strip and rebuild of mfuegemann  table was so well built that I felt like I just added materials to his table. big thank you to him for all his tables.   Read More

Nice resource from photos.

This was a request from dark, low-poly conversions of his detail objects for use in VP10. All the objects share the same texture space, but only the locknut and flathead screw use the normal maps.   Read More

A low poly mesh of just over 3k triangulated faces gives the illusion of high detail through the use of normal map projection. https://skfb.ly/6v9EZ BIG THANKS to Slydog43 for all the great pics of the actual toy removed from the table!
