See now those are the cables that came to mind when i first saw someone setup a PC to this thing and the wires stuck out half a foot lol. Great idea! Looks so much cleaner!
Really like the setup you did here! Can you point us in the direction for the auto-start script you have for your PC? That is a super nice feature that you didn't really say much about in the video...any help is greatly appreciated.
@@Upscaled_HT wow that is a nice touch! I was on the fence between PUP and PE but your video is pushing me towards the latter! Thanks for the response!
Nice overall setup. Thanks for sharing. Watching some of the game play, I can see that you need more horespower and this will be a lot more fun for you. Things go in this order in terms of least to most horsepower needed in my experience - FX3, Future Pinball, then Visual Pinball (VPX). I had originally figured to only use the first two, but then the community making these seems moslty focused on VPX and the "best" games all seem to be on there. LIke you, I started out with a spare parts/used parts build. A gen 2 Core i7 (yours is better) and a GTX 980. All in all, though, it was just not that great of an experience for VPX tables. My "main" PC is a Core i5-4690 and a GTX 1080. Everything runs smooth on that, so I am upgrading my Pinball PC to match at least that. Just some food for thought as I watched your videos and saw how laggy some of the screens were. I think $150 for a used GTX 1080 would make a big difference in your setup and you would like it a lot more.
@@Upscaled_HT Hah...I was debating moving my stuff inside the cabinet as I like the clean setup....based upon that comment, I will keep mine outside for now. ;)
what i would do if your computer is inside your pinball machine i would take that OTG button thing take it apart and put it inside your pinball machine so you don't see them wires and take some black vinyl wrap to cover the hole on that back plate where OTG and HDMI,USB ports was . there is a video how to do this
I'm looking for some specific tables like KISS, Canadian hockey table... Would I find those on places like arcade punks pinball dumps or where's a good community
Get a set of hole drill bits for clean holes in wood.. a set is $15 at harbor freight or amazon. Also are the speakers/amp only activated on pc otg play? And the stock tables still only play off original speakers? What was the hdmi splitter used for? I have one of those exact ones
Thanks for the tip on the drill bits. The extra speakers and amp are only for pc otg play. The stock tables play on the original speakers. The hdmi splitter is so I can run the hdmi signal out of the video card to both the table and the hdmi to optical/headphone jack converter. This allows me to use the amp and speakers simultaneously with the table speakers with no sound delay. So the table speakers handle the highs and mids from the sound and the extra speakers bring in a lot more low end.

Not much because I already had all the parts. If it had to be built new, the expensive part is GPU. A 3050 or even a 1660 super would probably be good options.

It looks like the games are playing correctly. This is really weird. Did you try reinstalling and going through the set up process again? Did you follow the videos posted by Nate Mac? It took a lot of tinkering to get it just right for me. I messed up a few installations before I got it right.
Stupidest idea in the WORLD (and any pro will tell you i'm right): Putting the HDMI on the "TOP" of the table when it belongs in the back or bottom where it can't be damaged by pets or kids. I ordered the VIBS and they sent it to me with a bad ribbon cable. It was like PULLING TEETH to get these guys to send a replacement and, when they finally sent it, it was for a newer model. The Legends Ultimate guys are a bunch of a-holes and i even had one of their guys (on the phone) grudgingly admitting it. LOL.

Great video man. I have my legends pinball and I’m building second pc to dedicate. Little overwhelmed about getting this stuff set up to be honest.
The pinball emporium videos are pretty good. I watched them several times and managed to figure it out. It's doable.

6:22 is that fiberglass surrounding the button?? Kinda odd material choice
I'm looking for some specific tables like KISS, Canadian hockey table... Would I find those on places like arcade punks pinball dumps or where's a good community
Could probably add haptic feedback with some small motors w offset axle... Not sure how lightweight the cabinet is
It’s just a vinyl wrap I bought on Amazon to hide the horrible job I did with drilling the hole for the button.
@@Upscaled_HT oh cool! I couldn't tell. It looked textured. Thanks!
When you installed PinballEmporium are all the tables included or do you have to install the separately?
It comes with all the games. It’s over 300 I believe.

Incredible
It was a pretty cool project. Glad I did it.
I really want one of these, but they keep getting bad reviews, is there a time stamp where you explain how much you spent on upgrades?
Most of my upgrades were parts I had laying around. If you’re just looking to get a pinball fix, keeping it stock does that very well.
Nice job !
Can you turn off the special effects on the FX3 tables ( like the points ascending when you get them from the target?)
Sorry for the delay. You can shut off the points popping up in the UI settings.

Does the haptic feedback work on pinball emporium
It doesn’t but my speaker mod helps by adding some impact.
@@Upscaled_HT hi . I saw in another video if you turn up the haptic to high in the ALP then it will work for the pc as well. Hope this helps
How much $ did you put into the PC/accessory part?
Not much because I already had all the parts. If it had to be built new, the expensive part is GPU. A 3050 or even a 1660 super would probably be good options.
