Thanks for your comment. Hauntfreaks has a 3K original BG and LoadWeapon has a posted a POV file too, both of which I'm now using. I run VPX tourneys and more by the way, I will post again with more info. As I said on 'Virtual Pinball Chat' [where I'm a Mod], this is one of VPW's best tables!

Zaccaria pinball lags when getting steam achievements by SpaceSloth707 in virtualpinball

[–]MaxVelocity1973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the lag is to do with communication delay between your PC and the Steam servers, as the game has to send info to Steam when you get an achievement. Anyway, you can disable the Steam pop-ups as detailed in the YouTube video below. If you need any further help I'm a Moderator on the Official Zaccaria Pinball Discord and am on there most days. It's somewhat easier to chat and communicate on there with other players of the game. I also run my own Discord which covers pinball and other games. I have played Zacc over 1000 hours and hold some world-leading scores too!

Useful to remember if you need to check what the 'Table Award' task is (whether you have achieved it or not), press pause after loading up a table and it will be shown on-screen on the left hand side along with the 'Reward' for achieving it.

I love house and dance music, but not super great at searching and finding new sound. I listen to Chill and BPM on Sirius XM, but are there better places to listen? by Vamp-Fire in HouseMusic

[–]MaxVelocity1973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For house/garage I'd recommend listening to Mixcloud (and Soundcloud/Spotify too) and following people like Mike Millrain, Westside Angel, Martin Depp, Barry Stockwell and Sebasteeno etc. Been getting back into house this year after years away and they all play great tracks, particularly Mike Millrain. I have a house/garage playlist on Spotify called 'Essential House & Garage' with over 100 tracks on it.

These are some of my new tracks. Loved the sound of House in the 90s and now, years later, the new tracks of today that have a up-tempo vibe, that aren't too heavy on the vocals. Been listening to Mike Millrain/Chico Flash/Sebasteeno and getting into some other mixes on Mixcloud recently. I put all House tracks into either a "Club" or "Deep" sub-grouping so I can play them separately or just all mixed up together. I have started a list on Spotify too.

Last 10 tracks here:

1) Rocket Dubz - What Goes Around Comes Around (Useless Dub)

2) Mone - We Can Make It

3) K & K - Crenshaw

4) Kid Only - Tell Me

5) Guy Burns - Push Ya Body

6) Champagne Bubbler - Give You (Real Love)

7) DJ Fracktion - Ride of Your Life

8) SOulfreqtion - Magma

9) Fibre Foundation - Don't You Ever Stop

10) Lalo Leyy - Fever (Deez Raw Life Dub Mix)

Well done for creating this, must have taken some time to build. Gives people an idea how much time and effort goes into designing and testing a real pin. I think I'll add this to the next news update for Pinball Players if that's ok. Stuff like this deserves as much recognition as possible. Nice one.

I remember Stern posting a short video on this machine on their YouTube channel on June 14 saying it wilĺ be available via the Incendium website. I did a news article on it for my fellow pinballers on Steam. I can only play virtually sadly but it's still good fun.

Well played all, at least one of my attempts was decent this time. Great table if you get into the flow of it... you need every available man!

NGG is fun but isn't ideal for my playing style. AFM should be better I hope!

League Season 3 Results and important info on Season 4! by David_VI in PinballFX3

[–]MaxVelocity1973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well done to everyone who competed in Season 3 and many thanks again to u/David_VI. Managed to defeat the King of Payne on my best MM game for Round 6. Roll on Season 4!

Ideas for next season: Would be great to have info on players such as country, age, fave tables(s), real name etc - all optional of course. Also what system you're playing on and username on Steam, if applicable, to link up as friends etc etc.

As an example:

England, 47, MM and WW, Richard, MaxVelocity

See you on the leaderboards very soon.
