 Hello, hello, hello! We've got Pinball Sign! Welcome, welcome, welcome, MPT3K! Hey, here I am. Hello, real pinball fans. Hello, virtual pinball fans. Hello YouTube! Because I get a lot of views on YouTube. But I stream on Twitch. So if you're here watching me later on YouTube, come over on Twitch sometime. Twitch.tv forward slash mpt3k. I stream, right now I'm streaming Tuesday nights and Friday nights and sometimes Sunday nights. If I have a break from the kids. But that being said, also there are a lot of cool streamers. pinball streamers i'm probably the only uh real and virtual pinball streamer on the pinball network but i'm part of the pinball network now you can see the tpn logo right over there right right there um what's up insomniac if it's earlier or if it's earlier than the twitch stream find them in real life yeah that's true um but youtubers thank you so much for all the subs and all the views it just Seems ridiculous that I'm trying to do things on Twitch, but it's all like blowing up on YouTube. That's cool. Also, TPN is a bunch of other cool streamers and blah, blah, blah. But here's the deal. I'm going to go back to my roots and play some virtual. Now, this is a remake of World Cup Soccer. Let's take a look at this, which looks amazing. um these guys did an incredible job right down to the to the to the soccer ball spinning it is an amazing recreation um let me turn that make sure that's back on of this pin and when i play this in vr it is insane it's insane how detailed this pin is um but even in the pancake version it's amazing so i'm going to give kudos and props to all the guys who worked on this particular table in the description on YouTube. So you'll go to vpinball.com and check out their amazing work. This is clearly, clearly one of the higher echelon of virtual pinball recreations. It plays amazing. Let us get some stuff happening. And I hope you guys can hear the pin. Yes you can Do we have enough flips? Everything's good I mean right down to the goalie It's all good Alright let's try it So there's a skill shot That's not it There's a skill shot Hey Pentomniac thank you for the bits Oh my chat is in front of my riffs I'm gonna change I gotta change the order of that. Right after I finish this game, I gotta put the rifts in front of the chat. Because it's clearing your beautiful chat. So there is a... skill shot. When you plunge, if you hit that ramp, you get, I don't know, 10 million or whatever? Hit the goalie? Wait, what am I doing? Shoot. I missed it. I missed it. I missed that. Damn it. Oh, come on. Alright, so I'm just getting started. It still blows my mind how good this looks. Isn't it insane? Isn't it insane? Alright, let's play some real. And I got the... They didn't do the color DMD. I added the color DMD. Because why not? It's free. There's a skill shot. Nope. Nope, nope. So the way World Cup Soccer works is in order for you to light locks, you have to collect everything on the, I think it's everything on the soccer ball. You have to collect stamina, skill, strength, spirit, speed. You got to get it all, right? And then you can light the locks. Also, I think I found a way to bring a VPX table into Blender, which means we can do a virtual we can do a virtual ball that is a camera. Yeah, I think so. They use Blender a lot to do some of the 3D modeling for virtual pinball. So, I'm at final draw. So I have to hit the final draw scoop to start the kind of the multiball mode where I have to hit a goal and then hit a ramp. Once I hit a goal, I defeat the team, then I have to hit a ramp to go to the next round and hit a goal again. Now, one thing that I actually have an extra ball button. Oh, what are my thoughts about that? Yeah, okay. If you need to do a virtual ball, that is a camera. I just digested that, Ben. Yeah, that would be insane to be going so fast. It'd be ridiculous. So I have an extra ball button. I was going to say, I have an extra ball button on here. And I think the extra ball button is like a hidden Easter egg. So we could do animation of the balls from the ball's perspective. That would be so insane. If I hit the extra ball button, I think it either defeats one of the teams or gives me the ramp shot. I can't remember. Let's find out. But I'm going to try it now. But I have to hit the scoop first I have to hit the scoop That's not the way to do it That's not the way to do it The ball is so Okay that's one thing The ball is ridiculously bouncy on this VP. So, like, the rubbers don't matter. The ball is incredibly bouncy. Got it. Alright. Now, once I launch this ball, three balls are going to come out and I got to get a goal and hit a ramp and a goal and hit a ramp. Got a goal. Now I'm going to hit the extra ball button, which defeated the next team. So the extra ball is kind of like a freebie shot. And I drained like everything. Well that sucks. Now the problem with the extra ball button though is you gotta get your hand off the flipper to hit it. So that's the only time you can use it though. You can only use it once. You don't get any more. So a lot of the pros, I don't even think they bother with that shot with the extra ball. So let's see. What am I doing here? How's everything look? So now, right, the goal is lit. These are rollovers. Boom, boom, boom, boom. Those are rollovers that will light the goalie for a goal. Otherwise, to light lock again, I have to get skill, spirit, and speed. So I have to collect these white arrows. And the white arrows start to disappear. So they get a little scarce after a little while. So you can see I can only hit that and that and get one. The other thing about this table is that there's this spinner here. for World Cup. I hit that spinner and I go off. Oh, he's here. Oh, he's here. Man, that is loud. Oh my God. When Don't Panic Flip shows up, it's like the whole house goes on fire. Holy crow. That was insanely loud. Was that loud for you guys? Um, thank you. Yeah, I'm streaming at a full four megabits per second. I wish I had fun sounds. So here we are. The goalie is lit! Then you continue through the the challenges. Alright, I hit both Clippers. You don't have to hit both Clippers. See if I can travel. So the extra game here, right? Oh! Once you hit, I think, Detroit. No, it's Boston. It's not Detroit. You get this Boston Tea Party around that is sometimes not worth it. But right now I want to hit it so we can save Stryker from having to drink so much tea. Oh, I missed it. It's over. I missed it. Okay, back to final draw. Back to final... Aye, aye, aye. All right. So, let's see. What kind of score was that? That was pretty decent. Looks like my frames are still good. It looks like I'm doing okay. The only thing now is for my internet connection is pretty latent. So I think there's a huge latency. Actually, I'm going to check. I'm going to check what my own latency is. So my personal latency to me is three seconds, but I don't know what the latency to you guys is. So that's the trick. That's the that's the other part. Let's set some mood. Let's go to violet. I like violet. Oh, yeah. And like I said, my riffs are behind my um, My wrists are behind my chat. Watch those hands, Buster. Alright, let's do this. Let's get some good scores up. The players are taking the field! The players are taking... This skill shot here, if you get all three, you get an advance on World Cup. If you can get... So here's what you do with World Cup. You hit it up in the spinner. It goes up into the lanes. Like both lanes, we'll give you a ticket. you hit it again that advances you so you need a ticket to advance to each to each um city once you've gone all the way up to the w that will start the final the the big world cup you know world that's the world cup right there and uh that is insane let's see if we can i would love to get to that so you can see how ridiculous it is because you have to manually plunge balls and make as much gold as you can whatever time and it's just it's insane it's insane all right here we go still shot kill shot no skill okay okay so let's collect some white arrows all right striker right there is a good one to go before. If I could hit it. Now, oh I don't have my tilt camera on, my tilt bob on, but there's a tilt bob in here. Let's try it again. What do you mean yellow card? You can't just give me a yellow card because I step up to play. And you also have a magna save right here which I don't I've only seen like really super professionals use that magna save no it didn't work oh boy rock top rock uh rope sorry robocopus changes the text on the pinball changes the text oh yeah yeah it changes it's it's done that all the time George just gave me all the things to play with like all the toys That's the ramp that people say never shoot for But I don't listen I pay so much attention obviously Alright let's get a better game than this Let's get a better game than that And at about Where are we right now in time At about Half past the hour We're going to do a little Product placement A little advertisement for everyone who's on the pinball network so uh that's gonna happen the pinball network skill shot no skill shot i am sucking at showing you guys the skill shot obviously Let's just get that goal, that first goal. Feels good. Get the goal. Get some, no, there we go, there we go. Get some white arrows. Get some, get some, get some stats built up. The one shot to get locked in on is that striker shot back there and I haven't been able to find it on this V-Pen. On the real game it's not hard to find that striker shot. This is killing me. That striker shot is murdering me. And I'm hitting... Okay. Oop. Let's travel. So there's a few things to do in this game. There's a few things to do in this game. rewards extra ball. Three goals! Boston Tea Party is lit. Boston Tea Party, if you can get to... No Boston Tea Party? Oh, three goals. I thought it said three cities. My bad. Get up there. There you go. Okay, lock is lit. Lock is... TV award. I'll take TV award. Alright, Alright, this is going to be big goal rounds. Basically, you shoot the goalie three times. I just moved to the next goal round? I've never seen that before. Wait, I've got two TV modes going? Never seen that before, guys. Two TV modes at the same time. Alright. You didn't tell me this was a V-Pin. If you didn't tell me this was a V-Pin, I wouldn't know. So it's one of the standout tables. It's like very, very meticulously built. It took them forever to build this. Because it took them forever to... I missed my extra ball. It took them forever to build this. and this looks ridiculous in VR it's so good so anyway except the ball is rainbow I don't know why the ball is rainbow in VR oh that's a problem ok there we go let's travel traveling is always good because it gets you closer to gets you closer to final draw here we go one of the hardest shots in pinball they say sometimes Ugh Fine Oh it hit the thing twice Oh don't get impatient Don't get impatient Now I hit striker Up and over Boom. Come on! Got it. Alright, let's see how far we can get this time. I'm going to use that extra ball button at the right time. Score! Dang it. Ah! So the key, right, is to... The key is to trap one ball and then just use the other ball all day to score goals and stuff. I didn't check to see if my sounds were... missed it by that much. Yeah, it worked. Okay. Let's travel. Traveling is good. We're going to New York. New Jersey. New Jersey, not New York. Let's get some more white arrows. Boop! Boop! Whoa whoa Nagasaki! That's alright. 790 is actually a really good score like you know... Oh what the what?! That was embarrassing! Let's travel Traveling is always good. Going somewhere. This is the thing that we don't get to do now is travel. TV Award 3! I don't even know what this is. Oh, hit the goalie for 10 million a shot. I missed him I missed him Oh it increases every time you miss him Got him 30 million missed him 50 million boom there's my knocker the knocker in this machine is the one thing that has the highest voltage the knocker in this virtual pen is on a separate circuit than everything else because it's firing 32 volts, I think, or some ridiculous amount of... And it's not even as much as a real knocker uses, even though they don't use real knockers anymore. Stern just makes cock sounds. Where's Striker? I've never seen this before, but I don't feel like playing Where's Striker because that means hitting with stand-ups. And that doesn't seem like a good idea Oh wow I've never seen that That's a call out from Wow That was a call out from Creature That was a creature from the Black Lagoon callout in this Okay So we're at 1.3 billion right now And I didn't even Do a lot I don't think I did a lot right now Which is a pretty decent Skill shot score Um Alright Whoa that went by me so quickly I didn't even see it Oh, come on! Alright, so... I think I've covered most of what happens in this particular game. We've got... The whole object is to get to the World Cup. I'm thoroughly impressed. That I cannot be 100% certain If this is digital or not It is digital It is digital Um Uh Oh, was I rated? DRI 374 Thank you so much Yeah, it's It's digital I'm going to throw one more up One more game up And then we're going to do a little station identification. But basically the key is to get to the World Cup, obviously. We already talked about scoring goals, collecting white shots to light up your soccer ball so you can light lock. One ball gets locked. You shoot it into final draw. Then you have to shoot a goal and hit a ramp. You shoot a goal to beat the team. You hit a ramp to travel to the next team. Jackpot, jackpot, jackpot, jackpot. Alternatively, if you just keep traveling and collecting tickets up there, you can fill up all the way to World Cup. And there is a... And those TV modes... Skill shot, please! Oh my god! I'm never going to hit that freaking skill shot for you guys. Now... Well, this is not good. Finally. Hit Striker Shoot the goal, really? Got him Wait a minute Shoot it in the goal Damn it, did I hit him? Big goal rounds I'll take it Big goal rounds It's good in like A tournament if you need If you need to Put yourself some points because it's basically, it's 60 plus, I think there's a 60 plus, so it's 15, 15, 30, which is 60, but then there's 60, that's it, that's 60 plus, that's it, like, lock is lit, shoot the lock, Alright, now we gotta hit the final draw Can I get a skill shot there? Oh, I got the skill shot Okay Okay, we can up and over this Because I know it comes out fast Final draw If you do another goal after the big goal You get another 60, thank you So yeah, it's 120. I didn't even see that. Which is pretty decent if you're in a tournament and you need some kind of free points. Sometimes that goalie can just get in the friggin' way too much. Oh, come on. Okay, good. Thank you. Sometimes a goalie can get scary. Okay, up and over, boop That's because I'm an old man I don't have any freaking reaction time Let's just try and get the one thing The one thing we do well I'm kind of throwing it away by doing this. There we go. It's funny because I watched... It's funny because I watched World Cup Soccer streamed a few nights ago, and I thought that you must have different colored LEDs in yours. Yeah. Digital! So I stream actually, if you don't know me, or maybe you do, Dakota Mike, I stream virtual and real. So currently I'm streaming Ghostbusters, which is real, down in my garage. But today I just had to come to this table because it's so beautiful. And they did such an amazing job on it. It works out pretty nice with my virtual pen too. Because I have all the bells and whistles. Get up there. So here's what I want to do. Thank you something happened and thank you for that whatever that was. Crap. Oh well. Well that's the problem with this multiball mode is sometimes it's over really quickly. Thank you for the follow. Sorry I messed up your multiball. No, trust me. Dude, that wasn't you. That's how long my multiballs last in World Cup. Holy smokes, they don't last very long. Let's travel. Let's travel. Travel? Well, I'll take a go. When I say travel, I want to go on the spinner, travel, I want to go on a spinner, which I'm messing up. Spinner. Spinner. Alright, while I have your attention, I want to point out that I am part of the Pinball Network and we're just a bunch of friends who like to stream pinball. I mean, a couple of us, you know, straight down the middle and don't panic with us, though. But I want to show you this so I can run and go get some more water. So, oh, oh, Cav. What's up, Cav? Here, I'll show you this. You've seen this, but I'll show you this now. I'll be right back. Three, two, one. Oh, Cav. Thank you. Thank you. so that's the pinball network we're a bunch of streaming guys who like to stream and here's the current schedule of things oh my god i'm streaming on friday what have i gotten myself into oh no what anyway yeah a lot of cool pinball streamers like I said I think I'm the only one who streams real and virtual but they're all better players than myself so there's that alright so there's that now I'm going to try I'm really going to try to get world cup that means I need to spin this spinner a lot hey what's up Insomniac again I'm starting I'm start doing some PX here in a month what what I'm gonna start doing some PX here oh pinball streaming Dakota Mike when did you join TPN I've been saying they need you for a while. Oh, I'm going to start doing some VPX here in a month. Okay, cool. Thank you, Nick. I joined a little while ago, but I just got off my lazy ass and started... I joined a little while ago. They asked me a little while ago, and I... I'm busy. I got two kids and a business and a thing. And sometimes I'm just lazy. That's my bad. Oh, shoot. Let's go back to that. Alright. Skillshot? Got it! Look at me collecting the white arrows. Look at this. Now we're going to go... Look at this! It's amazing! And a V-Pen table. Who has time to play? I need to find time. You would think in this current situation that you'd have plenty of time to do whatever. Yeah, not so much. I need to find time to... What the hell was that? I hit every button. Hey, Audrey! Oh, Little Bubble Gum. I'm so excited. I've got some new stuff for you guys. So Little Bubble Gum, guys, in the chat. She's one of my best friends. and we also stream... We used to stream pinball together. So if you go back and look at some of my older... Some of my older streams, you'll see Little Bubblegum struggling. You'll see Little Bubblegum struggling to keep up with me. I should... That's a nudge. That's not a slap save. That was stupid. Um, struggling and yelling a lot. Lock-a-ball! Nope. We're gonna travel. We're gonna travel some more. Yeah, let's keep traveling. Let's get those tickets. I like those tickets. So anyway, Little Bubblegum also, uh, is part of my, um, we play Jackbox games. But we play it on another streaming, we play it on another streaming network. Shh. It rhymes with Caffeine.tv. Evening, sir. Is that a virtual pinball? It looks real to me. Hello, Wind, my buddy. Hey, Wind. Yes, it is virtual. Because I got tired of getting my ass kicked by Ghostbusters. Although I did put up 1.3 billion today. And a lot of it is due to your advice about the bounce over. Come on, come on, come on, come on. come on just give me the freaking there we go and I miss but I hit final two streaming networks to yeah yeah we use caffeine because the latency for me on caffeine is very low not only do I have final draw going but I have Here we go, here we go. Stryker is still dying of coffee intake. Or tea intake. I don't care about saving Stryker right now. I want these gold. I gotta hit a ramp. I gotta hit a ramp. Dammit. I gotta hit a ramp. Gotta get a ramp. Ramp. You guys see that? Did you all see that? Everybody saw that. Good. I'm so glad everybody saw that terrible, terrible flipper foul. Um, Stryker's... Stryker's bladder is gonna pop. Yeah. I killed Stryker. I'm sorry, Stryker. I always try and save him, but... Sometimes that shot just gets away from me. Sorry, Striker. Let's see what I got. I'm going to have to snag this virtual table. This looks really well done. Yeah, so this goes up on YouTube a few days from now. If you go to my YouTube channel, which is Mystery Pinball Theater 3000, you can just look that up. I'm going to put a link to this exact table so you can download it and try it. It is beautiful. They did a really terrific job. The only reason I complete Boston Tea Party Is because it sounds too annoying Oh man Thank you Yeah, Seattle Pinball Museum Just get mad Just get mad So Audrey, I have some I have some fun stuff for the next The next Jackbox games that we do I changed everything I changed the layout of everything I changed everything So Did I mention I changed everything? Damn it Did you remove the Something games from the wheel Yeah I took the games we don't play off the wheel I even took the games we don't play off the Off the menu I changed the menu around Come on guys we're close We were so close Did we get to San Francisco? Man You're still black so you didn't change everything Alright Skill shot Nope Let's get our goal Let's get our free goal Maybe Maybe Whoa Aren't you Technically already in San Francisco. Yes, but I still want to go there. Get up! Get up! Get up with your bats. Oh, it's coming back! Ugh! I heard that from across the room. I'm glad I got to look into your beautiful black... I can't read. A little bubble, but I can't read your stuff anymore. Alright, let's travel. I am not... You ever get like... Do you ever get locked in on a shot on a pinball machine sometimes and then you think that's the shot that you can make all the time and then you find one day you can never make that shot again? Yeah, that's happening to me right now. Did I get a ticket? Damn it, I didn't even get a ticket for that. Up and over. I think I try and trap too much I like Seattle Pinball Museum But it does stretch the definition of museum Also it gets way too loud in there when it's busy Yeah don't they all But still a cool place for sure And gotta love the Wandering Doggy Only the days ending in Y Hey, Cab, I gotta renew my desk camera license because they've all run out. So I can no longer use my desk camera Oh no I was quarantined with the family Yeah, they all ran out. All my desk camera licenses ran out. Um. I think I'm just gonna buy the damn thing. It's so useful. It's so friggin' useful. Final draw! Uh-oh. Bounce. Thank you. Trap. Thank you. And shoot. Shoot. And shoot. Okay. Up and over. Nope. I'll take a goal. I can smell the sarcasm all the way over here, George. I know I have a free kick. Shut up. You happy now, game? Oh, this is painful, isn't it? This is a typical game of... Typical game of... of World Cup where you can't hit the freaking scoop to start freaking final freaking freaking George, I don't have the GoXLR hooked up to this machine so I can't swear. Just use my kickback. Thank you. Trap.

Too much trying to control the ball. So I could run my second Cam Link on this if I wanted to. And I have a second CX-405. But my plan is to buy... What is it? The A5100? I think it's the 5100. The reason I want to buy an A50-100 And not the 6400 Is because I have too many cameras I know how I can fix that Um The quality looks great Yeah it's the lighting You gotta light it You gotta set the exposure correctly You gotta do all You gotta have like enchantments and oils And fricking Saturn has to be in line with Jupiter And what not Um Don't panic, Flip. I borrowed seven books from the public library in Seattle, California, and it's great. Have you returned them, Little Bubble Thief? Did you give them back? Did you borrow? Right out the outline. Did you see that? Crap. Alright, here we go. I use books as a way to escape. I probably need to read 10 in the last... See, that's good because I don't know how to read. So George is showing off again because he can read. That never works. I don't use words like hyperbole on my stream. Hyperbole. Hyperbole. Hyperbole. What ball am I on? Jeez Seven books, huh? What books are these? I read seven books Each night I read a book Cat in the Hat Fox in Socks Piggy and Elephant So if we're counting books Yeah I'm up I'm with you I got the books down baby You guys gotta go on YouTube George you gotta go on YouTube And look up the guy who raps The Dr. Soice books Yeah and I said Dr. Soice Cause that's how you say it Oh damn Dr. Seuss Okay, the Dr. Seuss Hey Micah, you wanna play? Micah, I was just telling them about the The guy who Wraps the Dr. Seuss books Can you close it? Remember the guy who wraps the Dr. Seuss books? He's pretty awesome, right? He wrapped No, no, no, not Not Llama Llama Nah, this is like a British dude This is like a British dude that raps Arjou, you gotta look it up Or I'll send you a link He's amazing So he drops like these Dr. Dre beats And he's sitting And he reads the books And he's like Fox on socks Socks on fox And it's like But it's really good though Fox on socks is one of the hardest books to read normally and to be able to wrap it is insane um i'm gonna put you in the next one right what i just came in here to you know what sure he came in i came in here to you know but sure he never said what he came in here i came in here to check on you to check on the stream bobby verse books one bobby verse books one through three six of crows and the sequel whose name I don't remember and two more oh Audrey says hi we are at our of World Cup I would love oh and I got final friggin final friggin draw it which I I didn't even know I had. I'm gonna kick those gears. Yep. Final Balls! Unending balls. Unending bells. And I'm currently reading the City of Dreaming books. But struggling. World- I got Earl- Earl the Cup! Earl the Cup! Earl the Cup! I would love to be able to trap one of these mofos. There you go. Oh, come on, Manu! My son saw me do that terrible... Terribleness. Did you already use your Magma Stance? I did, yeah. Man. Okay, extra ball Elizabeth. I'm going to go up here. Give me a ticket. Cast this ball and give me my extra ball. I am at old cup. Old cup. Up and over. up and over up and over well with that drain it's an excellent time for me to show you guys a little something that I like to call A little something that I like to call The Pinball Network That's right The Pinball Network Oh don't worry Nick You'll see a little more of that view in a minute Fabulous streamers I'm streaming Coming up next Coming up next is Don't Panic Flip Don't Panic Flip What is the game you will be streaming tonight we also have our buddies at straight down the middle, Zach Ray Day we've got you can see everybody who's up there I don't need to read it George, you're going to stream Ghostbusters? wait a minute, I thought we were going to duel Ghostbusters aren't we supposed to duel Ghostbusters? or aren't we supposed to bust duel Ghostbusters? watch those hands, Buster bust bust ghoul ghoul dual busts dual busts isn't that redundant little bubble gum dual busts like if you have a bust don't you have don't you usually have two yeah if you have two dual busts and you have four busts oh did you see that nudge did you see that sick sick nudge no because the screen was too small. Dang it. You should write a script to have Mike say different stuff each scene change. You should write a script to have Mike say different stuff each scene change. I will, but who's Mike? I'm missing something there. Nice shake, but it's too small. Yeah. That's right. Corvette. Corvette is a game that we don't currently have a VP10 emulation of. There is, I think, a VP9 or a Fizmod or... I don't yet see a Corvette VPX and I am very very hopeful that someone would do one. I do that too much. Yeah no VPX on Corvette just yet. use VP9. That's too bad because nothing from VP9 can be used in VPX. My traveling is terrible right now so I'm going to try to... I just realized I just started a game and I'm expecting to be all the way up to the World Cup. It's not going to happen. Woo! Woo! Woo! So excited to watch this go. Yeah, it's only pinball. That should give me... There we go. Oh, terrible. Terrible. What other tables are in VPX that you're waiting on? I'm embarrassed to say that I was waiting for a long time for someone to put out Playboy, Stern's Playboy. But they did. So I got my I got my wish I got Stern Playboy Um I don't know if there's any other Any other tables from that era Of you know Spike Sam And all that other stuff That That I'm waiting on Oh crap It drained It drained Oh Not sure that that was physically possible For a ball to do It literally wrapped around the flipper And came back up So I would love I had to get my replay system working again It pulled it around the flipper That was interesting So don't show that to a pinball purist because they're going to say, see, that's exactly why we don't need virtual pinball. That's one heck of a magnet. Lord Howard Hurts, what's up? Okay, sometimes the lights and stuff flash so much, guys, that I can't see the ball. Taka-taka-boo, taka-taka-boo, taka-taka-boo. Taka-taka-boo. it was working um amazeballs did the lights dim in the house for that one yeah the magnet was so strong oh my god all right All right. And if you can wiggle, right? If you can wiggle the thing, you don't get a tilt warning, but you don't have a lot of time to do that. Oh, wind rate. So, dude, this table in VR is insanity. This table in VR is so much fun. I think they did like some little trick where they scaled it... Wait, just a second. They scaled it down or something like that. Yeah, there's an actual tilt bob in there. I usually have a tilt cam. Actually, I do have a tilt cam. I just don't have it turned on. But I think they scaled the table down or scaled it up and then built it so that it could be higher resolution. Because when you render this in VR, it's tiny. The table is, for some reason, really small. So you have to tell VR to scale it to the proper size. Need to up the ambient light a bit in VPX setting. Yeah, it gets rid of the center dark patch. Yeah. Yeah, it moved a little slider. It was the one thing I didn't do. It took me two hours to set this stream up tonight, which is way too long. But I'm trying out this new stuff. Oh, thank you, Neil. Awesome. I can't wait to look at that. That's got to be insane. Hey, what's up, CoinyCon? Coinkion. Coinkion. I can't do it. Have you tried the Brams Dracula tie mod on your cab yet? It just came out. I think that's the one that just came out. I did not try it yet. I can't wait to throw it on. Do they have a VR room for it already? For this? No, they don't have a VR room for this. I'm tempted to make my own VR room because I got the VR room like the VR room do-it-yourself thing. And I've done a couple of tables with VR rooms but it's not as good as the guys who really do the VR rooms because I won't have pictures of Striker and stuff up in the room. I'll just have this generic room. So I usually wait for the pros to make the rooms. But I think this is the most people I've ever had on my stream who have actually experienced virtual pinball in VPX. It's insane. It's really sick. I know what you mean. The pros rooms are off the charts. So here's the thing. There's a builder. There's a pinball builder who builds VR rooms. Okay? And he puts little animated things in the room. And some of it freaks me out. so what I mean by that is he made he made a room or they made a room for I think it was the follow for space shuttle right you know the game space shuttle like a Teddy Ruskin yeah yes like a Teddy rucks rucks been kind of He made a VR room for space shuttle like a teddy rusker yeah yes like a teddy rux ruxpin kind of freaky he made a a vr room for space shuttle like space shuttle second i can even i don even know what the name of it is but it's like it's this table right but you're on a planet i'm like oh cool you're on a planet so i put the vr on and um i'm just gonna do this for i put the vr headset on right I go, okay, cool, here's the table, I'm on a planet There's asteroids coming around I'm like, okay, this is cute I'm gonna play a game of pinball, but this is cute Okay, I'll take this, and I turn around, I look And way off in the distance Is like the shape of an alien Okay Okay, this is a pinball game By the way, guys I go, oh, he's trying to creep me out By putting the shape of an alien It's a silhouette, I go, oh, okay Alright, alright, cool I put in the credit boom I start playing I play one ball And then you ever get that feeling That you're being watched And I went I turned around And the alien is like Like right the fuck up on me Like right on me Like he's like standing there like What you doing And I just went Like pull the headset off for a minute, I was like, I went from, I went from, and I made a puddle, I went from, like, loving the person who created it, to really hating him quickly, because it's a great virtual pin, but don't do that, don't do that. So ever since then, ever since then, I always check the map. I always check the map to see if there's any extras on the map. That may load with the map or something like that. Ah, crap. I almost had the level of control that I wanted. Oh! Wow! This is it right here buddies. This is it right here, buddies. Canada, right? Okay, let's keep going. Come on down. Okay, that's another ticket. I wonder if you can stack tickets. So you've seen this. You've seen that the pros do this, right? I need to do a PSA. Okay. Ah! That was close. That was the kind of control that you want during a multiball. Trap one up and then... What's nice is that it'll keep feeding that right flipper. So, get up. I'm going to up and over this. Damn it. I'm at R. I have to keep going. Nice. Thank you for the... Cab, if you hit that a million times, it'll do a million of them. I have no limits to the number of emotes that you can throw on the screen, unlike some people. Hmm? What? What's that? Do I have... Do you have to manual plunge... Wolfman! You heard of Hell on Wheels? Well, you got Wolfman, and I is Hell on Wheels. yeah, okay, let's, okay, let's, all right, okay, okay, okay, got it, um, oh, flipstream got timed out for five seconds, that's all right, I'm gonna turn that off too, I'll make sure to make nightbot not do that, um, no, you can spam, I'm gonna turn spamming on, Do you have to manual plunge on wizard?

Oh, got the background noise figured out on my Yeti to the go XLR needed to plug the USB into a standard wall socket not a powered USB is that a fact okay Wow well that's good to know that's good to know all right let's lock the ball Did it give me the... it didn't give it to me.

Hey, I finally can chat again. How long did it ban you for? Wow. No, flipstream. Dude, Cap, I'm going to turn that off. Nightbot is not going to mess with anybody who wants to put tons of emotes up on the screen. You did put a lot, though. Oh, this is five minutes. Five minutes. You want to be banned, Nick? Just spam emotes. Your wish will be Nightbot's command. Boom. That was a panic flip. I don't want TVs right now. No, all caps doesn't do it.
