The VPM Team, no less! You know, the guys that have made this hobby possible as it is today? Here's a guy with little to no involvement (long standing, my ass!) taking something that's not his and posting it against the wishes of those who didn't want that it out there. This is exactly why I have had ZERO respect for Dazz and VPU. Has anything ever come out of releasing that code? No if anything it furthered and engineered a new era of Virtual Pinball. It's just been passed around as a rule of thumb. rules that, to this day, no single person has ever seen in writing or have any proof of. We changed the rules and released tables using SAM emulation. Yes, this may have been a tunring point for VPU at the time, but the site wasn't created specifically for that.

VPU did take the broken / unfinished code, added LE rom support, fixed the bugs in the code and released the DLLs for it to the public. I personally had nothing to do with the initial code leak being made public, but the posted did release it on Christmas Eve on VPU. It was to be only shared privately, along with horribly built tables, amongst only the elite members on VPForums. It was being held back by VPF and the PinMAME team mebers at the time. This SAM emulation was made specifically for and reportedly *sold* to GlobalVR. you guessed it Destruk and a couple others from VPF.
The DLL's containing SAM emulation were found on commercially available GlobalVR/UltraPin machines, in which contained tables created by. Basic SAM emulation was secretly added by Destruk (PinMAME Team) and VPF to a private DLL. I never intended for VPU to be where we are today, but here we are.ġ. Those content creators released content specifically for VPU and we created a following. VPU had several content creators that all felt the same way toward the owner of VPF. We teamed up to create a place where it wasn't ruled by a dictatorship and away from the rules of Noah. Issues that could have been easily fixed, never were, and eventually drove several of us long timers away. His constant promising of fixes & concerns by the community that fell on deaf ears. It was created out of spite due the fact that myself along with several others were treated like shit by Paul/Noah. Yes, VPU was initally created as a "spite site" (quote from Paul/Noah). First and foremost VPU has always been about community. VPU has NEVER had anything to do with money. No ahFentz) in the same category as VPD if he want's to play this game. I'll just lump Paul/Noah Fentz aka offended by everying, (haha get it. If he wants to attack me and my character. Today it seems that he has decided to spew a bunch of bullshit. I thought that we had a common interest at hand and Paul even sent me a PM asking if I needed help getting additional info about VPD.
For a while now I thought Paul and I were on a way to understanding that both communities are important to the overall health and well being of the hobby. Since I've been banned from VPF for many years now and haven't used the site for just as long. Not really, but gotta love being picked on to make others look righteous.
It looks like VPD and VPF are teaming up to try and take down VPU. Over at VPU, Dazz has kindly replied to a post I made, shared over there. A lot of things about this hobby have been really, really bothering me, and I think it's high time to address them.
