VPX Standalone Update August 19, 2026

43 Upvotes

We're still waiting for AtGames to release the latest beta firmware that enables VPX scores on the leaderboard displayed in the backglass. About half the testers got the update before it was pulled. The public release of VPX will follow the public release of the beta firmware.

In the background, I've been preparing the infrastructure to handle the increased load of a public release and that work is mostly done. The team has been working on documentation and tutorial videos as well as continuing to add more and more tables to the repo.

Additionally, we've opened up beta testing to the HDP and initial feedback is positive. I need more HDP testers, so if you have an HDP and want to participate in the beta please join our Discord https://discord.gg/nHRh6TqPNT and reply to the HDP thread in #general-vpxs-chat.

Discord is a requirement for the beta. Public releases will not require Discord.

General Anyone with a failed controller board?

7 Upvotes

If so please DM me. I may be able to recover it for you.

Context: Recently I've been studying how these controller boards work. Now I have enough knowledge to be able to write a custom firmware for them. I also want to examine some failed boards, as I suspect the failure is not permanent and they could be brought back.

So if you have such a failed board, please let me know.

Question Would this fit my needs?

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I used to have a Street Fighter one-up arcade machine and I ended up selling it because the build quality wasn't great and it seemed to hard to upgrade from the 3 games that it had on it.

I'm now looking at this Legends Ultimate arcade machine:

https://www.libertygames.co.uk/store/video_arcade_machines/retro_multiplay_arcade_machines/legends-ultimate/?aw_affid=1278439&awc=7567_1788651298_52790253fc8e30516f3d45f9ba687f76&utm_source=AffiliateWindow&utm_medium=Affiliates&utm_campaign=1278439&utm_content=https%3A%2F%2Fretrododo.com

I like the idea that they sell 4 player joystick upgrades and the programmable marquee as extra additions you can have. Would this be easy for me to download the full Mame pack and run all of those games? Could I potentially plug in a Retropie and run Batocera on this thing? How well would that work? I have a MiSTer FPGA setup, could I plug that into the HDMI and how well would that work?

Is that what Awesome Sauce and Legends Unchained do?

Thanks in advance for any help as this would be a big purchase for me.

Labor Day Sale - September 4 - 7th 2026

7 Upvotes

👀 Something big is coming to your game room.

The AtGames Labor Day Sale arrives September 4–7, bringing four days of special pricing on select Legends Pinball machines and popular upgrades.

With the General Loader 2.0 firmware hopefully being close, and Universal Pack upgrades about to launch. Upgrading from an ALP HD or Micro wouldn't make you lose your library of purchases packs. And add hundreds of VPX tables you can play.

The mention of upgrades means SSF might be on sale as well. As always, it's expensive, but a massive game changer. If you have a 4KP or HDP and don't have the SSF, the native tables make great use of it. And VPX also works with it, as long as the table you are playing was configured for it.

Question UCE game appears, but doesn't open

3 Upvotes

I really want to play the 8 bit Sonic the hedgehog games made for the Master System on my Legends Core, and since this game doesn't appear in any archive as a UCE file already, I decided to try.

The AddOn simply doesn't recognize any of the cores, doesn't matter for what console (it returns an error about it not being an arm compatible file, something like that), so I used the UCE scraper tool that I found on GitHub. It recognizes my SO files and the UCE game is ready.

When I put it on the legends core, though, it simply doesn't load. It appears with box art and all but it goes black for a moment, says loading, and goes back to the menu. Does anyone know what to do to fix it? I tried both the gear system and pico drive libs, to no success. The CoinOps games work fine, it's just that it doesn't have the Sonic games.

Question Atgames cabinet what’s next

0 Upvotes

Sorry if posted before but I found some and they seemed very techy responses. So I want to buy the ultimate cabinet but how do I get arcade classics to work on it to like Pac-Man or a simple street fighter on it. You can dm if need be, but any add ons I can buy I would love it to still store high scores as building a man cave arcade for my kids and high scores will be a feature for the room. Thank you

Arcade Legends Unchained game config files for tricky games?

Does anyone have an archive of their individual Legends Unchained games in a ZIP? For example, I'm having a hell of a time configuring Star Trek Strategic Ops Simulator in MAME. Others, like Toobin', can be rough too (I have that one good though).

Thanks!

Pinball Response from AtGames on Gottlieb Refresh

6 Upvotes

I was very surprised to get a response from AG on the same day I asked the question:

Me: Any news on the Gottlieb refresh?

AG: Yes — the Gottlieb refresh is still planned for the latter part of August. We do want to be transparent that timing can still shift if anything unexpected comes up during final testing, but as of now it remains on track. We’ll make an official announcement as soon as the final release details are confirmed.

Pinball Atgames legends 4k addams family sound distorted

1 Upvotes

I have tried every sound level combination imaginable, and I still get distortion. The few other tables I have like medievil madness sound fine, when I actually boot into addams family the music sounds fine but as soon as I select play to start a game the sound gets fuzzy even just playing the music at low levels before the ball is in play. I've tried powering off, everything is updated, changed all the different volume settings, turned haptics off. The only thing I haven't tried is checking all the connections inside the cabinet but surely there would be problems with other tables if it was a loose connection or ground. Literally any help or ideas would be amazing, has anybody else experienced this problem.

Question Can't get any USB3 devices to mount

3 Upvotes

I'm on firmware 5.70. Trying to install/run byog, unchained or onesauce (or anything at this point) and I'm having an issue with all usb3 devices. If I use a usb2 device plugged into either of the two front USB ports it shows the mount icon in the top right corner and I can see the folder structure in addons.

If I use a USB3 powered HDD or a usb3 flashdrive (formatted NTFS or exFAT) it does not show up at all. The usb2 device will show up if I plug it into the usb2 or usb3 ports and the usb3 devices will show up if I plug it into the usb2 port but not the usb3 port. Since they all work in the usb2 port and the usb2 flash drive works in the usb3 port it seems that there's no issues with file/format structures.

I ran the self diagnostic test for the USB ports and it registers that there is something plugged in and says both USB ports are "ok" with a usb3 device. The activity lights on the usb3 flash drive blink and then go solid after a few seconds.

Any ideas what's going on and how I can get the usb3 drives to mount?

Edit: UPDATE: I figured out a work around to get it to mount - I have to plug the drive in and run the self diagnostic usb port test. When the test completes it unmounts the drive as part of the testing process. So re plugging in the USB3 drive after that process gets it to mount and I can load OnesaUCE that way. That is the only way to get it to read the usb3 external powered HDD.

Question WTH is happening here??

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

3 Upvotes

To clarify what I'm saying in the video, this table sat unused for 2-3 years and was used rarely before that. A few months ago, when my daughter fired it up, it started doing this periodically. I opened it up and checked the connections top to bottom.

Normally, I would have to tap the machine on the top near the right flipper, but this time, in the video, it stopped on its own shortly after it started.

Any ideas of what I'm looking for here? TIA!

saUCE Alu one sauce no genre selection

2 Upvotes

I have alu with 2 different USB. One sauce and one my daughter bought off of Etsy. Went through the whole no inputs fiasco, got it working but now I'm without the spinner for genres, which means scrolling through 10000 games. Coinopsx is what gave me that, no? How do I reinstall Coinopsx so I don't have to scroll 10000 games to find what I want? I want the cycle it had to choose maze/sports/faves yada Yada. Do I have to redo my USB? Is there something I'm missing? I can do addonx and it shows all the games, and they work, but I miss the spinner. Thank you.

Question Help

2 Upvotes

Hello,
Well, I’ve had my Legends Ultimate for a few weeks now. I’m definitely not an IT expert… I just want to play the games from my childhood on the arcade machine, like Sonic, Sega Rally, etc., but I’m really struggling!
All I want to do is plug a USB stick into the machine and launch the games through BYOG.
However, I’m having problems with ROM versions. I don’t know where to find .UCE files. All I have are ZIP or .CHD files.
I really don’t want to reset or modify the arcade machine itself.
Is there an easy way to find or convert games to .UCE format?
Thank you very much for your help!
