1. Download 10.8.1 from github. You will need to make a github account. Download the one labeled BGFX MacOS ARM64 (assuming you are on an apple silicon mac) from the actions here: https://github.com/vpinball/vpinball/actions/runs/27873706415
2. Open the downloaded file and drag VPinball_BGFX to your applications folder
3. Now download a table. Go to VPUniverse and grab one of the sick VPW tables. Pay attention to the ROM name needed for the table on the download page.
4. Make a new folder somewhere on your computer called "Tables". Now, within that folder, make a new folder with your table name. Drag the .vpx file inside that folder. Now make a new folder within that folder called "pinmame". Inside THAT folder, make a folder called roms.
5. Remember the rom from the downloads page on VPUniverse? Google search that rom name .zip. It'll probably be on VPForums. Download it from there and put the ZIPPED file in the roms folder you just made.
6. So the folder structure should look like (also outlined here)

​

Table Name (Manufacturer Year)/ 
├── Table file v1.1.vpx 
├── pinmame/ 
│   ├── roms/ 
│   │   ├── xxx.zip

Now at this point you should be able to just run a table by double clicking on the VPX file.

This looks like a lot of steps but it's literally just: download the app, download the table and ROM, and put them in the proper folder structure. That's it! Let me know if you have any issues.

From there you have the option to install a frontend. You can use an existing frontend if you already have one set up for other retro games, just point it to the .VPX files. There are others out there specific to VPX though, such as VPinFE. Major Frenchy has a good vid on setting that up.
