And yeah JP's Slimer is much better in my opinion and I like the hologram of Slimer much better than the crane. I haven't read up on what Spike is yet, but I agree it should be redone. Slimer is more like what Stern would have done, if the capability existed, like projecting a hologram on a clear plastic target etc Technically, slimer is better, the other is simply more mechanically accurate with the crane etc Instructions: 1) After downloading, open the ZIP file and youll see the folder 'Collections,' inside of which is 'Visual Pinball X,' inside of which is 'mediumartwork.'2) Inside that last one youll see the the full PE folder structure (like this). Someone would need to strip it of vpinSPA entirely, and then redo it as a totally script operated table like Slimer is I think before you got too many people onboard with PUPing that GB table though GB was a spike 1 controller, so yea standard DMD display Anyway there a a lot of other people making PuP packs, they were mostly at vpionball and now maybe at vpu, I'm sure someone will make a mod of the table, although the original Ghostbusters didn't have any video like the newer Stern tables, as it had a more traditional dmd. I don't know when you are watching the videos, because when I play if I lift my eyes to the dmd then the ball is lost I always felt those DMD animation were there to distract the player and making loose the ball It looks to me that the videos on the DMD or puck packs are mostly for the people watching, or to attract people to the game. That's why my DMD has mostly only text too, as info, because while playing and don't even look at the dmd. I'm more interested in the gameplay, and while playing I have no time to watch the videos, nor the DMD. Yes, I don't use or make PuP pack videos, as wiesshund said.

It runs smooth, but my screen capture app produces a stuttering video on some tables. Here's a quick video of what the Top Gun pup display blacking out. I have a 7th gen I5 at 3ghz and a GeForce GTX760 and I'm using the recommended VLC player that Nailbuster recommended, VPX 10.7 and I'm running 1920 x 1080 windowed mode. It cant use your GPU's hardware decoder which is a lot faster.īut that is mostly just guessing, as i said, i dont use PUP I can use the pup packs I have as a guide and give it a shot.ītw, do you by chance know why some pup packs stutter while others run smooth as butter? The pup videos on my Getaway table and my Star Trek TNG stutter real bad and the pup display on my top gun table blacks out after each trigger.ĭepends on how video is encoded and at what resolutionīeing that PUP just plays via a specific version of VLC all decoding etc is done in software, so all on CPU That is something you'd have to make yourself As JP does not use Pinup, it would be difficult for him to make a PUP pack
