    VP8 Help Is VP8 still good to begin?

    I was tweaking with the first time with the very "first" version of Visual Pinball. (I also have some experience from FP) Is still worth using VP8?

    Thanks to @hawyer for acquainting me with this table. I love the art and the JPSalas version, so I've added a link, an issue fix, and an alternative backglass to the resource entry (see pic below, also with closer view). I thought the FP version was also pretty good, but could certainly...

    VP8 SS Original Table Citadel (Original) VP8 v1.2 (post-2001)

    This is certainly one of Georg's more traditional, wide-open layouts, and probably one of his earliest tables. In any case, it's good fun, and the music is a perfect, relaxing accompaniment. One of the unique features on this one is the ball (manually) plunging from a hidden spot in the upper...

    (AI prompt) is contact available (1933 version)?
    Quote
  • ChatGPT @ ChatGPT:
    @, As of my knowledge cutoff in 2023, the 1933 version of the film "Contact" does not exist. It seems there might be a confusion with the title or the year. The well-known film "Contact" is a science fiction drama released in 1997, directed by Robert Zemeckis and starring Jodie Foster and Matthew McConaughey. It is based on the 1985 novel of the same name by Carl Sagan.

    If you are looking for a different film from 1933 or a film with a similar title, please provide more details so I can assist you better. If you are indeed referring to the 1997 film "Contact," it is widely available on various streaming platforms, DVD, and Blu-ray.
