This page outlines how to set interface pyprocgame to Visual Pinball so you can run your custom software on virtual tables.
Install pyprocgame and dependencies
- Install the P-ROC software libraries. Use the libpinproc installer on this page or compile from source.
- Install Python 2.6
- Install the following python 2.6 modules:
- PyWin32
- PyGame
- PIL
- PyYAML
- pypinproc (the self-installing executable resides in <libpinproc>\ext\python\)
- Install pyprocgame
- Install Visual Pinball (Available on vpforums.org in the Getting Started menu).
- Download these VP scripts and put them in VP's 'Scripts' subdir. These are slightly modified from the original VP scripts so that VP will work with pyprocgame.
- Download VP's sound samples from vpforums.org (in the Getting Started menu) and put them in VP's 'samples' subdir.
- Find and download/unzip the VP tables you want from vpforums.org (in the Desktop Tables menu).
Set up pyprocgame/VP environment
- Add the following to your pyprocgame config.yaml file (~\.pyprocgame\config.yaml): (Sample here)
pinproc_class: procgame.fakepinproc.FakePinPROC
log_destination: /P-ROC/pyprocgame/log.text # Change this to where you want the log to go.
vp_game_map_file: /P-ROC/pyprocgame/vp_game_map.yaml # Change this to where you create your map file
- Create a vp_game_map.yaml file and put it where you said it would be in your config.yaml file. (Sample here)
Run pyprocgame games in VP
- Register the pyprocgame/VP interface:
python.exe tools\register_vpcom.py
- Run VP, open the desired table, click play.
Note - You only need to register the pyprocgame/VP interface once. (unless you are using VP with both pyprocgame and pinmame. Then you need to re-register the interface after using pinmame.)
