      I’d like to create some (or learn to in Blender) for my next project, but the kind with the “tube” look, similar to Ganja’s F-14. Hope to use VUK into ramp. Thanks for direction. Pete

        Looking forward to your next project and to the amazing talent here that I’m sure will chime in and help.  Any hint to what you’re working on?

          are you talking about wire ramps ?

          wire ramps are best done in Future Pinball given that you can attach the end primitives and automatically add any type of ring.

          import the FPT file into blender and export an OBJ

          very detailed video tutorial by Fren

          https://www.vpforums.org/index.php?showtopic=29063

           

          the key to every thing is

          MAKE SURE!!!!!!  the table dimensions are the same  you will need to convert VP units or  inches  to Future Pinball metric units.

           

          Ramp height

          if you wan to your  Future Pinball ramp height to line up with your Visual Pinball ramp

          2 Visual Pinball Units =  1 Future Pinball Units

           

          see a table you like help me find the resources so that I can finish it

            Yes, wire. I read about using Future Pinball somewhere in my readings in the past three years, but thought maybe that was an old school technique. Thanks for the video link. Sigh, more software to learn.

            @JR  It will be completely original (no trademark worries) but no clues yet. This will take me at least 6 months to do since I’ll need to learn more about Blender.

            The video is perfect!

              So I’ll have to have custom socks made.  Cool.
