[rubens4141]

What is the size of the monitor?

What is the brand of the monitor?

and Where did you buy this monitor?

[lbrinkmeyer81]

Where can I buy an "Ultra Arcade" cabinet? I really want one and was also wondering if you can add games that you find online as well.

[chupacabras721]

Excellent explanation is Visual Pinball vs. Future Pinball. Thanks! 

[XxBoxerman74xX]

Hey can you tell me where you got the snaps for both of them?

[delusional2971]

@XxBoxerman74xX I created them from scratch. There's a built in Snapshot feature in Maximus Arcade. You can set what key takes the snapshot in the Preferences.

I found it strange you said FP was more cartoony that VP i personally think its the other way around... FP looks a lot more realistic compared to VP, and also a lot sharper. Both are good emulators though, and VP has got better with time, when you see tables like Attack from Mars thats had a overhaul you see it and think WOW. Nice cab btw.

Is future pinball playable without a trackball? I notice that everyone always changes angles during gameplay... is there a "default"?

[delusional2971]

I believe it is playable without a trackball. I don't use it when I play. I just have it set to one angle.

[WompaStompa11]

Thanks for the video. It helped clarify the difference between visual and future pinball.

[TheDabeavis]

I Would love to have my own version of that

[narcossintese]

Damn, that "The Wood" is classy as hell. I´m so jealous LOL

[delusional2971]

Huh?

[narcossintese]

You know you have the coolest arcade ever, don´t you?

[delusional2971]

Oh yeah? You should see Knievel's Kustom's arcade machines. Puts mine to shame. Just google "neon mame knievel kustoms" and you'll see what I mean.

But thanks! Glad you like mine!

What do I search for when Downloading new tables ? And Where do I search.

[delusional2971]

I got them by browsing the Future Pinball forums. They have many links to 3rd party developers for tables.

[voltz15]

Have you been able to try out the new version of 3 angels yet? It's different, but I don't think my system handles it well compared to the previous version.

[delusional2971]

I haven't tried it yet, but I'm definitely going to download it to try it out. Thanks for the info.

[voltz15]

Just bare in mind much of the music and effects have changed so at least keep your old copy handy in case there's no previous version to download.

[ChrisGomez6400]

Thank you :)

where did you get your cabinet?

[delusional2971]

I found it on Craig's List. Some guy was moving and needed to get rid of it the empty cab. I picked it up for $25 (It as a Wizard of Wor game by Midway). I sold the Marquee for $10 on eBay so it ended up only costing me $15. I then cleaned it out, modified it to fit my arcade monitor in it, used wood filler to fill in any imperfections, sanded it and after a few coats of black paint and put new T-molding on it. It looked brand new when I was done.

[delusional2971]

The control panel was separate and I mounted that afterwords. That in itself was a huge project designing and wiring up.

[ChrisGomez6400]

how did you make it to were u put a coin in the machine it inserts coin?

[delusional2971]

It's very simple. Just connect it to the appropriate i-pac input controller for each player. The coin doors have microswitches, just like the arcade buttons do. Simply wire the coin doors ground to the ipac and then the "NO" wire to the appropriate "coin" input on the Ipac. See my other videos on arcade wiring for more info on wiring microswitches.

Love the glowing trackball ala Crystal Castles! Yet another thing I will have to add to my MAME cabinet once I get around to making it!

[voltz15]

OMG I got the same keyboard!

jayjay524: "Hey could you email the specs of the computer running mame?"

-- Sorry, I accidentally killed your comment --

To answer your question: I'm running an AMD X2 4200+ with 2GB of RAM, 160GB HDD. I originally had a 4000+ and it ran just fine.

Grab ANY table from Jpsalas and PacDude in the VP forums...their tables are hands down the best creations to date.

[Yoeddy1]

Hey Delusional...I just found your videos from the Maximus Arcade site...great info vids! I'm way into VP/PM, but I hadn't seen Future Pinball...looks cool!
