On a clean Windows 10 Pro, I installed Python 3.9.13 as admin.
I created and activated a virtual environment and ran the following:

python –m pip install –-upgrade pip
pip install --upgrade pip setuptools  
pip install mpf-mc  (This also installs mpf)
pip install mpf-monitor

When I issue "mpf --version", I get the following warning:

(mpf57) C:\VENV\mpf57>mpf --version

C:\VENV\mpf57\lib\site-packages\mpf\commands\__init__.py:6: UserWarning: pkg_resources is deprecated as an API. See https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html. The pkg_resources package is slated for removal as early as 2025-11-30. Refrain from using this package or pin to Setuptools<81.

  from pkg_resources import iter_entry_points

Mission Pinball Framework v0.57.3

Any idea how to avoid this or suppress this warning?

Issue #2: When running "mpf both" for my test game, I get the following run-time errors:

(mpf57) C:\Pinball\testgame>mpf both

C:\VENV\mpf57\lib\site-packages\mpf\commands\__init__.py:6: UserWarning: pkg_resources is deprecated as an API. See https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html.
