| | Virtual Pinball is very flexible and provides support for alternative, optional features (alternate sound effects, colorized Dot Matrix Displays, etc) that may be separate from the main table download. These features are contained in files that are separate downloads and best organized in separate folders within that for the table. The recommended folder organization for use within Batocera **v44+** is shown below. (See also [[https://github.com/dekay/vpinball-wiki/wiki/File-Layout#the-main-table-folder| Dekay's unofficial vpinball wiki]]) |

| Virtual Pinball is very flexible and provides support for alternative, optional features (alternate sound effects, colorized Dot Matrix Displays, etc) that may be separate from the main table download. These features are contained in files that are separate downloads and best organized in separate folders within that for the table. The recommended folder organization for use within Batocera **v39+** is shown below. | ^ Folder ^ Description ^ |
| | | /userdata/roms/vpinball/<table_name> | The VPX and any associated ''.directb2s'' or ''.vbs'' files. Any associated ''.UltraDMD'' folders should also be in this folder. Note: All file names (''.directb2s'', ''.vbs'') should match the ''.vpx'' file name exactly. | |
| | | /userdata/roms/vpinball/<table_name>/pinmame/roms | The PinMAME ROM of the table (in ''.zip'' format). (eg: ''userdata/roms/vpinball/AC-DC LUCI Premium (Stern 2013)/pinmame/roms/acd_170h.zip''). You will need to create this directory for those tables that require ROMs as they are a separate download from the table itself. Alternatively, you can put all your PinMAME ROMs in the PinMAME directory [[#pinmame|as described here]]. | |
| | | /userdata/roms/vpinball/<table_name>/altcolor | Optional Serum colorizations directory <rom_name>/<rom.cRZ> (eg: ''userdata/roms/vpinball/AC-DC LUCI Premium (Stern 2013)/altcolor/acd_170h/acd_170h.cRZ''). Create this directory as needed. Note that VP Standalone only supports the Serum (.crz) colorization format. Other colorization formats (.pac, .vni, etc) are closed source and not supported. | |
| | | /userdata/roms/vpinball/<table_name>/altsound | Optional alternative sound packages directory <rom_name>/<sound files> (eg: ''userdata/roms/vpinball/Batman (Data East 1991)/altsound/btmn_106''). Create this directory as needed. | |
| | | /userdata/roms/vpinball/<table_name>/music | The table's music files, if any. Create this directory for those tables where a separate download for the music files is required (e.g. ''Halloween 1978-1981 (Original 2022) 1.03.vpx'') | |
| | | /userdata/roms/vpinball/<table_name>/pinmame/nvram | PinMAME NVRAM (Non Volatile Memory with Pinball settings) | |
| | | /userdata/roms/vpinball/<table_name>/pupvideos | Pup Pack directory <rom_name> (eg: ''userdata/roms/vpinball/Tron Legacy (Stern 2011)/pupvideos/trn_174h''). You will need to create this directory if the Pup Pack is a separate download and not included with the table itself. | |
| | | /userdata/system/configs/vpinball | This directory is created automatically by Batocera for the ''VPinballX.ini'' configuration file and associated log files. If you have a problem getting a table to run, check the ''vpinball.log'' file in this directory. | |
