Rooter's Pinball

<< < (5/12) > >>

rooter:
I picked up a mini keyboard and touch pad to hang on the coin door.  Now that I'm pretty much set up on the software side, I want to toss the keyboard and mouse just dangling around inside.  This should be good enough to get me where I need to be.  If I need to do something like install a bunch of tables, I will just remote in from another PC.



Now, if Groovy Game Gear would just ship my parts out already, I would really be getting somewhere!
*Edit: Just hours after posting this, my items shipped! Maybe someone is listening!

Man, I thought I was being original!  Oh well, great to know it's going to work well.

On a side note, I found out that I should NOT use Windows 7 with a newer NVidia card.  I went and swapped out my ATI card to NVidia to fix problems with Visual Pinball, only to find out that the new NVidia Win7 driver doesn't work with Future Pinball.  I guess as the last part of my build, I will downgrade to Windows XP.  Maybe someone will come up with a fix by then.  I really didn't want to do that because I prefer the 64bit OS and I've had nothing but problems with XP64 in the past.  It was mentioned to me that using older video card drivers would work, but they won't install with my GTX 460.

Does anyone know the status of Future Pinball?  Is it ever going to be worked on again?  Last I saw there was a ton of drama.  I wish it would just go open source.  I wonder if we could take a collection and buy it as a community.

I live in Wilmington.  Are you near me?  If so, I might have some questions for you.

I wish I had more cabs laying around, and the space to keep them!  I had to drive to Maryland to get the Goldeneye.  I just got my first actual pinball machine, a Motordome, last week. 

Thanks for the kind words!
