GNR Pinball Machine

[Mandy.]

Thanks so much. Wow, it's been a long time since I last played pinball.

[Mandy.]

I've just downloaded it and I can't get manage to execute the game. What do I do? 

[Blackrose]

Thats awesome! Thanks heaps for the links.? I have not seen one of these (the real thing) for a few years.

If you downloaded, extracted and successfully installed the files you should have a folder on your C: drive named "pinballpack" open that folder and doubleclick on "VPLauncher.exe" to start the program (you may also want to make a shortcut to your desktop for this item).
Once you have launched the program you should have a screen with a list of available tables on the left, double click on the "GUNS N' ROSES" file to launch it.

That's the thing, there isn't a .exe file. All files are non executable with weird extensions.

You sure you downloaded the pinballwim as well, and not just the GN'R table for it?

Haven't tried it myself, but it'd seem that you need both.

Yes you need both. I had to download the pinballpack.zip from emule because when I tried to download it from the web page it kept finishing about have way through( if using emule make sure you get the one that is 18.54MB )

Extract the Guns table to your C: drive(same as pinballpack). Then launch VPLauncher.exe from the folder C:pinballpack and the Guns table should be in the left hand column.

Thanks guys!  I'm playing it now.

ahh screw this it won't work, all I get is "No table found"

[pilferk]

LOL!

I love how this subject comes up every couple of years.

I've been playing the board (and even posted, way back when, a tutorial on how to get it to work) for about 4 years now.  It's a great 'quickie" game that I keep on my desktop at all times.

You have to have the pinball program installed in C:\ (followed by the default directory that the setup creates)only.. You cant have it in program files or your D:\ if you have one or anything else, just simply in the C:\.

Also, you might have to go to configuration and add the guns n roses machine directory to the list.

Yea I know - that bit got me. I also fucked up because I realised that after installing it and simply moved the directory to the C:\. I realised later that you have to reinstall the whole thing.

Bit of a bitch to get working but once it does its good fun!

There was a thread about it last year, with Pilferk's tutorial :
http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/board/index.php?topic=18835.0

I didn't check whether the links were still valid, though.

[Parabola]

I got the original and lt's signed by Slash! great game!

First off, I'm not sure if this is the right section to post this so mods, feel free to move it.

You can download and play the real GNR pinball online by going to http://www.pinballsim.com/viewtables.php?sortby=lastupdated

Get the download info for the program at http://www.pinballsim.com/

I could get the game to load but I couldn't get it to play.  If anyone here can get the game to play please post here on how you did it.  This looks pretty cool though.

Oh hell yes. Always thought it would be cool one day buying the GNR pinball. IT would be pimp. Hope this work for us cool ass MaC motherfuckers.
