You need to give more details. Sounds like you are trying to load a zip file. Make sure you are unzipping the table files. Go here for a guide on how to set up Visual Pinball & VPinMAME.

'visual pinball can not load a file of that version.'

Make sure you are using the very latest version of Visual Pinball (which is TB4 build 1930) & make sure you are using the latest VPinMAME (which is 1.0 beta 2 - though for Back To The Future, beta 1 will probably work as well).

I didn't notice until a couple days ago. Did Metallik report this on the news page? I'll bet not. Unless I missed it... :)

It's not even dogfood version and still buggy as hell, use at your own discretion,,,

My suggestion,DON'T REPLACE V4 withit,use BOTH if you must...

When V5 is developed more,it'll be a better idea touse it, but hey,that's my $0.25! LOL :)
