IMagine yourself playing his table. YOU and the position of your HEAD in relation to the screen provides the perspective. His table is set to just the right angle to simulate the 3D you'd see. (Look carefully, his table is not straight top view)

I think he means how did he get the tables to appear perfectly rectangular and not artificially slimmer toward the rear like they do in VP.

Exactly!  How?

AH! Maybe there is support for orthagonal camera? (Im just guessing here. In 3D rendering packages and 3D game engines, we can have a "camera" that has perspective, or there is a camera that looks straight on. Maybe VP has this built in.

I don't post here often but I had to drop in and make a comment.  Absolutely awesome!!!!  I love your cabinet design!  How in the world did you get those VP tables to look so good?  Did you redesign them from scratch with higher res art?
