I usually have this problem when I have to zip and rename the Stern roms
You usually can just download the file from Stern and rename their zip file, no need to re-zip. VPM is smart enough to find the correct ROM inside a zip regardless of the filename inside, as long as the outer zip is named correctly. It looks for a matching CRC.
If you can start the ROM in VPM test but it does not work on the table, it’s probably either the ddraw issue if you’re using exclusive fullscreen, or you’re running into the memory problem. On my 32 bit VM I have to reboot almost every time to play this table. VP uses over 2GB by itself before the ROM even goes to load, and then VPM needs a big block of memory to fit the ROM into. Not a good combo. It would work better if VPM loaded first, but that’s not the way VP works unfortunately.
I’m looking at some possible solutions, probably on the VP side.
