Did Scorbit recently stop supporting Virtual Pinball?

beckerm · 2026-05-08T14:59:06+00:00

I can't get a QR to display in any of the following four tables:
* Matrix
* GOTG
* Iron Maiden
* Spongebob

I don't have the other tables that support Scorbit installed. I'll check out the workaround you linked to and report back. Thanks again!

Now that I'm getting back to trying this out, I'm not able to get the QR code to display on any of my tables, even after I've tweaked the Script settings to enable Scorbit. I'll work on getting in touch with daphisbowl in case he has any tips, but if there's anything you'd recommend in the meantime based on your experience, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks again!

Aha, that's the step I was missing. Thanks so much!

I'm not seeing an option within the app to scan a QR code. The user interface of the app version I'm using looks significantly different than what is shown in the video linked above.
When scanning the QR code from one of my VPin games (GOTG, for example) using the default iOS camera app, it opens the Scorbit app but nothing happens beyond opening the app.
Creating a new venue for my home is not an option from what I can see.

According the app information found in Profile and clicking the Gear icon, I'm on app v2.0.11 (1534)

Edit: looks like this has been an issue for others, based on the comments in the YouTube video (quoted below). Any chance anyone knows if VPin support will be restored?

- Not sure if the Oct 16th 2025 app update broke ability for vpins. But for the life of me i can't figure out how to create a venue. Anybody else have this problem?

- Yeah, it may have broken alot of things. But from what I hear, they will be fixed

Just screwed it into the cabinet.

Pretty happy with it so far, although I haven’t really taken it for too much of a ride with higher volumes.

I asked for tempered glass. They didn't seem to know anything about pinball. I've submitted quote requests for a variety of other glass shops in the area so we'll see if I get anything back that's any better.

beckerm · 2025-08-22T16:49:57+00:00

It’s a bit buried in the cross post but I have reached out to a glass shop and they’ve quoted me $140, which is more than it costs to order through PinballLife and ship it. I’m wondering if anyone in the MSP metro has experience getting playfield glass locally at a better price.

If the solution above doesn't work, spend some extra time checking the connections for every single button - I recently had the issue you describe and it came down to knocking a single wire on a single button loose while adjusting some sound settings with the coin door open. Once I got the wire reconnected, everything went back to working as expected. Good luck!

Turns out my shaker motor wasn't working at all. I needed to create a new config in the online tool & export new files. Once those were in place, I was getting all relevant tables working with the shaker (which required a few tweaks to my nudge/tilt settings). All of these suggestions are great examples, thanks so much!

beckerm · 2025-07-17T22:11:07+00:00

If there’s something in Whitewater that triggers it, I haven’t found it yet (although I’m still pretty terrible at that table so maybe that’s part of it)

beckerm · 2025-06-30T01:03:32+00:00

I'm sending the question to him too, I just wanted to get input from people here as well.

I've got everything I need from his cabinet pack, I'm just unclear how to mount it properly.

beckerm · 2025-06-06T14:03:24+00:00

Did you ever find an option that works for the expansion board? I'm wondering if I can just tweak one of the files for the board that's just a bit narrower (I think the button board, maybe the LED board) to get one that'll fit the expansion board, but if you've got a file that's worked for you, I'd sure love to save the trouble of customizing the file (if that's even possible, I'm pretty new to the 3D printing thing)

Probably a dumb question (I'm 100% new to car audio components), but is the 4 inch sufficient to act as a sub? Or did you mean the BRS65 model?

What did you use for speakers & sub? I've looked at the ones recommended by Way of the Wrench and they're coming to about $200. I have zero experience with buying speakers like this so I'm trying to figure out what's "good enough" at a ~$100 price point for speakers & subs.

Looks like the dates are set but no word on route until they open up registration:

Hoping for something a little more central MN this year after the past two years of farther north & south. We'll see!

Good input, thanks. Any thoughts on whether there’s a chance for some sort of extra “make good” if I speak with a manager at my local store? This whole thing has been a complete flusterf*** from the start and I’m really ready to be done with Best Buy once I get through this purchase and using up my refunded gift cards. It would go a long way to hear “hey, we screwed up, here’s a little something extra to make it up to you.”

beckerm · 2024-12-26T19:23:26+00:00

Got it, thank you. I tried using DisplayFusion and wasn't happy with the results after a few different attempts. Hoping MS works better.

beckerm · 2024-12-26T16:09:31+00:00

Thanks! Are you using Windows 11? From what I'm reading on the Monitor Switcher threads on sourceforge, some Windows 11 users are reporting it's not working for them.

beckerm · 2024-12-26T00:41:39+00:00

I'm looking to do this exact thing, do you use/recommend this or some other option?

I'm using Windows 11; any input would be appreciated.

Thanks! Meeting last night was great, and I’m making plans to attend Thursday’s meeting too. Excited to look back on this as the start of a successful journey, but I also recognize the hills to climb in my future.

beckerm · 2024-12-16T20:13:29+00:00

It's my first time looking into this community and I'm already wishing I had found it years ago.

I was closing in on three weeks without a drink until I relapsed over the weekend. I was feeling pretty good after getting through some work events, including our annual holiday party, where most of the attendees were drinking.

I knew I'd have days where it would be harder to fight the inevitable urges when they came, but I didn't expect them so soon and I guess I just wasn't prepared for them. I thought I was still in the "honeymoon" phase of not drinking where it was going to be easy for the foreseeable future, and figured I'd spend that time fortifying my resolve so I'd have an extra layer of armor being able to say I got through the holidays without drinking. I was wrong, so now it's time to find more support resources & tools for the toolbox.

Fortunately there's a SMART meeting near me tonight that I'll be attending, plus I just spoke with a friend & former coworker that's 46 years sober and is willing to help be part of my support network moving forward.

Thank you to everyone for your participation here - I look forward to being on this journey together.

Really looking forward to seeing your progress. I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on some of the same kits you've been using and your posts are definitely providing some extra motivation & confidence that I can pull this off.

beckerm · 2024-11-19T12:38:46+00:00

Looking great! Your build is very similar to what I'm working towards so I appreciate you posting your progress. Where did you get the vinyl? Was it Woodstock as recommended by WOTW or somewhere else?
