That probably almost costs the same as getting a real pinball machine lol
I would rather have a real one just because I would know its real, and also for the analog feel of pushing the buttons for flappers, being able to bump the table, exc. Bumping a giant LCD might end in disaster lol

Yes but you'd be able to play 100's of pinball machines.
Yeah, but it wouldn't be the same I don't think, as playing the real ones.... I would rather just have a normal TV set up so I can sit down and play, if its going to be virtual.

Wow, I am very interested too! Any Xbox developer is still alive? Even if he cannot do this port, it would be very usefull if he can give us some clue in order that we (developers without experience in Xbox) can go into this project
There are a handful of Xbox developers out there still, but most of which don't actively write for Xbox, and those that do are working on their own projects and probably wont port this, but we can always dream

As long as there is folks who still play xbox, there will always be another port of something. Just don't expect to play visual pinball right away.

At least it can be said that the xbox scene is still alive and kickin'. At least through the mod community.

Yeah, if it does happen, Visual Pinball is a complex program that would take a year or more probably to port... if you figure emulators can take 6 months to a year for a good programmer to port over. Plus im not even sure when programming language VP is written in... if its anything other than straight C++ it becomes a hassle in itself just to rewrite everything to make it work with the XDK

Design
Every Visual Pinball table includes two main parts: the "physical" playfield design and the script which controls the table gameplay. The editor uses Microsoft VBScript for user programming. The game itself is written in C++ with the Active Template Library for making ActiveX controls.[2] Visual Pinball runs on Windows 98 or newer.

If we get a porter I'd say maybe 6 to 8 months provided there are no snags.

chance of finding hens teeth...lol.
That and another update to Alien vs Predator on Xbox...can't see any of them happening.

As for Visual Pinball, this is a big project to take on. Either a new dev will need to come around and get interested or a current/old dev will need to be interested enough to focus exclusively on this for some time. I like Pinball a lot and this slightly gets my interest but not enough to divert from the other things I am working on. I hope someone does take it on.

You are wrong on AvP. I talk to SirLemonHead all the time and he has done a lot of work on it. He will be releasing an update as he has said.
Thats good to know then. People have been asking for some time about progress updates,
with no reply, so I thought this was an indication that it was pretty much "dead in the water".
Thanks for keeping us updated.

I think everyone who has a modded xbox would like to see this, but it seems that it has been talked about for years and never got anywhere
Its only been open source recently though... maybe once there is nothing left to port, some up and coming programmer will take on the task!
