JustAnotherRat Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 He has had knee jerk reactions before. He has a problem with Retro Play as does a lot of the community for selling cabs with games installed. I believe that Mini Pinball Australia is who is copying the site and causing all sorts of issues. He is also trying to trademark the words Virtual Pinball. Dazz has had problems with his site recently too. I'm away at the moment but the site didn't open when I tried this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozzie1 Posted December 10, 2021 Author Share Posted December 10, 2021 Are you a paid member jar as I just should have left my membership as it was.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustAnotherRat Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Nah, not paid. Tue stupid thing about it is they get upset with people.going to the other sites, and then they make it hard , even impossible, for people to do it the way they want them to.

mozzie1 Posted December 16, 2021 Author Share Posted December 16, 2021 Have my account back I had 2 accounts and the first I couldn’t log back in for whatever reason so I created another but this was 18 months ago..so when I subscribed the system wasn’t happy 😂😂..Finally reached Dazz and sorted it out… I was a little worried as I then would be unable to get VPW tables and there pretty good… know the confidence to get 10.7 when it’s an official release 😩🥺 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustAnotherRat Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 10.7 is fine now. VPX tends to be stable long before a stable release. I tried to access VP Universe the other day and it said that only paid accounts were accepted and all free accounts were deleted. When I was showing someone a couple of days later I logged in with my free account so it seems Dazz back flipped. I think charging would have just forced a large number of people to the site Dazz and most others want the community to avoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozzie1 Posted December 16, 2021 Author Share Posted December 16, 2021 Your right there JAR….there seems to be some real trouble there…..not good for the pinball community at all we don’t need to see another site close for good….The tables coming out are so fantastic….. As you know my computer skills are up the shit not even confident at do 10.7 so I did subscribe hoping that every little bit helps as there must be some sort of cost to these sites… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzStick Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 No worries Peter - all you need is an app called Team Viewer which will allow someone to remote access your PC and have a look around. I could do so whilst speaking with you over the phone to explain what's going on and get those last few pesky add-ins running correctly. Freezy's is a must for full colour DMD output and I'm sure there's a few other things that you'd like looked at as well...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozzie1 Posted December 20, 2021 Author Share Posted December 20, 2021 Thanks Chris much appreciated..Yes I do have team viewer… I was going to wait till they have finished there beta testing and then do the up dates.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you referring to Freezy's beta testing finishing? If so then don't hold your breath - it's been in Beta for about 4 years now! The same can be said for most community based projects (ie nearly all of what virtual pinballing uses!) as the projects are not run the same as in the commercial software world. Virtual Pinball is a perfect example, as I don't thing I've seen a "Final" or "Release Candidate" update for about 10 years. They just roll it over to the next version. So we are up to VP10.7 at the moment, but the next "version" wont be VP11 as the project is being moved over to using the Unity engine, so it will be VPE. The best approach is to wait until it seems like a new "version" is stable (follow feedback of Facebook, VPF and VPU) and then do an update.
