    I’m just now realizing how complex Popper is… in terms of how all of the bits were put together to make this system work… as someone who’s done work in AHK, I can only imagine the work put into this. Thank you, sir. Brilliant.

    David may have missed his calling as a teacher. Clear, concise and to the point. Just the way I like it. Cheers.

    David, this makes installing VPX, your fantastic front-end and all the necessities a real breeze, no fiddling with parameterfiles anymore. Just your baller installer and tada ... a fully working virtual pinball machine in less than 10 minutes (on my machine). Three deep bows (with my nose touching the ground) and a lot of cheers for all the hard work on the Pinup System!

    This seriously makes me want to cry! I just finished setting up my cab and getting everything working properly about two weeks ago. After working on it for about a month and a half I muscled through about every problem you could possibly have. The tutorials and forums were a big help. Thank you so much my kids love playing virtual Pinball. I just wish this was out a couple months earlier LOL.

    This is amazing. It takes literally a few minutes to set up. HOWEVER, I am still glad I learned the old way as there are things you must do to get setup behind the scenes that if you learned the old way, you will have a better understanding of when you get this up and running. GREAT WORK!

    Good to see this is being streamlined more and more for ease of access. I remember when configuring MAME with front ends was a chore. Now it's basically downloading and moving a file. Going to try this out in a few months i hope. ALP arrives tomorrow, PC has to wait.

    Thanks you for all your efforts, it is much appreciated as I don't really enjoy fiddling with different software, I am sure you also saved me a considerable amount of time. I recently set up a gaming computer with an i5-12400 and 1660 super. Today I followed all the steps from this video and successfully set up all three monitors with the "Baller Installer". A 40" 1080p Samsung TV, 26" 720 Samsung TV (backglass) and a 14" Dell computer monitor for the virtual DMD. I plan to follow your other videos to figure out how to add in at least a few 90's DMD games to VPX. I plan to make a cab that has a real homebrew Solid State pinball machine of my making , this will use the 26" screen for videos and scoring and the ability to manual place and hook up the 40" screen on the cab for the virtual experience.

    I picked up a drive that has the pinup-popper baller installer. I purchased it from retro lizards arcades. I love this drive it has so many awesome tables. My question is on my set up I have an NFL Buffalo Bills table but I would like to see a NY JETS themed table instead. Is there away to change the NFL teams for this table? I believe it’s a Sterns table.
    Thanks for the informative videos they really help us newbs when we are messing around with our games.Thanks

    This is awesome. It's implied at 6:00 that anti-virus should be off. It's worth noting that reboots may turn Defender back on after you set your screens set right. The rebooting for me turning Windows Defender back on.

    i am completly new to PinUp, just didt my first install.
    And found myself in a wired senaio, Pupper opens but the wheel wanne display in the wrong end of the screen opsit to the playfield so ither the wheel is upside down or the playfield is :)
    can seem to figuer out what i need to do :)
    i Selected 1 screen as i dont have the second display attatched... so i guess i have to start over with both screens attatched as u mentioned :)

    New to pinup popper and was setting up joytokey but having a small issue but have no clue to resolve it. When scrolling through games tables list in vpx , left flipper scrolls through list. If I hit right flipper it automatically kicks me out of vpx table list and back to main lepprechaun table. I have no clue why? Only way to scroll right in the game list is by right shift key on keyboard. Makes no sense. Also I wish in set up i could figure how to set up nudge buttons in popper. I am using ALP. Thanks for the videos, so much to learn.

    This looks awesome for sure! The part about having all of your hardware hooked up… If I am planning on doing a two screen set up, but I want to test on two different screens from the ones I am ultimately going to go with, would that still work? Would I just be able to re-run the ball or installer and it was just over right the things that changed but keep everything else the same?

    This looks absolutely great. The only thing though that is a huge downfall is that it doesn't support 1440p resolutions according to the installer? There are quite a few people that are using 1440p 144hz monitors for virtual pinball. Is this functionality going to be added to the Baller Installer? Without it I feel like this is not going to be an option for a lot of people.

The screens settings will be ignored when you start the frontend. I set up everything by running the config. PF left and BG + FullDMD on the right side of my monitor but when you start the front end every screen is on top of each other. In my cab with 3 monitors everything is fine. and i put this problem in a facebook group and other people have the same problem. Can you help me? thanks Sascha

    I see you get the grey distorted screen when launching a table here and I know you say don't worry about it, but I get this all the time on my current setup that I built and for the life of me cannot figure out why. Have any insight on why this happens?
