VPXZ Files - syd711/vpin-studio GitHub Wiki

The VPin Studio supports the packaging of .vpxz files and installing these on mobile devices.

For a comprehensive instruction into this topic you should watch the video from Major Frenchy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iq39Znmg6GM

In this section we will explain how you can create .vpxz files via Studio and install them on your mobile device.

Enable VPXZ File Support

The management view for .vpxz files is disabled by default. You need to enable them in the preferences. You find the 3rd party preferences section, named "VPXZ Mobile Settings". You need to enable the file support there.

In order to let the Studio communicate with the VPX mobile app, you need to enable the webserver settings there too. You find the IP address in the preferences of the VPX app.

Bundle VPXZ Files

Once enabled, you can bundle every table from the table overview into a vpxz archive. The created file is visible in the VPXZ view afterwards. Note that some tables require additional patching so that they can run on a mobile device. Luckily, these are already provided by https://github.com/jsm174/vpx-standalone-scripts and downloaded via Studio. So if the table you like to bundle is listed in the VPX standalone scripts, make sure to select the matching entry.

After pressing "Create" the vpxz file is bundled.

Install VPXZ Files

The installation of the vpxz files on your mobile device if pretty easy. You see in the bottom status bar if your device is connected. You can press then the "Install on Device" button and the file is uploaded and installed. The status icon for the vpzx file should switch to green, indicating that the installation was successful.

The table will be availabe on your device using the wheel icon of the table and you should be able to play it.
