Table Tennis PC Recompilation v1.0.5 — Desktop Icon
The installer now creates a desktop shortcut with a custom transparent Table Tennis icon. Double-click Table Tennis on your desktop to open the settings launcher and start playing. The launcher executable also embeds the icon.
Icon artwork by Gary aka POOTERMAN :) — POOTERMAN on DeviantArt. Thank you! The supplied image was converted to a Windows icon at 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 128 and 256 pixels. The artwork is credited separately and is not covered by the project's MIT license; installed credits are included.
Install or update
- Download Install-Table-Tennis.exe below.
- Choose your own supported USA/Europe retail Table Tennis ISO and an installation folder. For an existing installation, select the same folder to retain saves/settings and update the launcher and shortcut.
- Allow the required components, click Install / Recheck, then Play. A desktop shortcut is created when Windows permits it.
The ISO remains necessary during play. This includes the v1.0.3 ISO startup fix and v1.0.4 first-run save-dialog fix. On first launch, answer any visible Saved Game question: A creates a save; B continues without saving.
The existing up-to-4K output, increased internal rendering at 1440p/4K, 60/120/144/240 FPS targets and uncapped mode, FSR/CAS/FXAA options, gamepad intro skip and offline menu fixes remain available. Achieved FPS depends on hardware and scene.
Validation
- Verified all seven icon sizes and transparency; compiled the launcher with the icon and loaded its embedded icon through Windows.
- Invoked the actual compiled installer's shortcut routine in a separate test folder and read back the shortcut target, working directory and icon location.
- Nine automated synthetic tests passed; the opt-in game runtime test was skipped for this icon-only update. No gameplay code changed.
- Audited the 34-file source/artwork payload and verified it before embedding in the installer.
This remains an unsigned preview. First-time Microsoft component installation and the previously blocked SDK-download path remain unverified on a completely clean Windows PC.
The EXE is our installer, not a prebuilt game. Its payload contains source, patch instructions and the credited desktop icon; no ISO, XEX, retail menu archive or generated game functions. The local game build is prepared from your own supported ISO. Local generation is not a legal guarantee.
The optional Table-Tennis-Local-Build-v1.0.5.zip is for developers. Players only need the installer. SHA256SUMS.txt verifies both downloads.
