Downloads policy 12/31/17
« on: December 31, 2017, 09:43:00 AM »
Starting 12/31/17 we have a new download policy. You have to participate, and be a part of the site. Replying to a topic/commenting gives you 10 credits. Uploading a file gives you 25 credits. When someone downloads that file the uploader gets 1 more credit.

Downloads are still free. You get credits by participating. Posting, commenting, and uploading are what will give you more downloads.

Right now I don't have a way to distinguish between tables/wheels/ etc. All downloads are 1 credit. You should still be able to view a wheel and rightclick/save as. You shouldn't have to use a credit on a wheel.

P.S I'm still working on allowing a user to see how many credits they have left. I'm looking where to add that code... :Study:

Seeing your credits is already enabled. When you get to the page of the file you want to download, before hitting download, you''ll see "My Credits".

It appears that it currently only tells you your current credit balance if it is zero.

Click the Mycredits. The next screen will show your credits. It works for me.

That's a great way to get everyone involved! I love the VPX tables, but the older VP9 tables play great, too! I've owned over 400 Pinball Machines since I started collecting, buying, and selling pins back in 1990, and Visual Pinball is sooooo close to the real thing! :D
