  1. Thank you for fixing alternateExe There are a few more things I'd like to request: 1) Flyers - it would be nice if there was an option to keep the aspect ratio. 2) I'm pretty fond of the "One click launch table" option - I'm using it but it really disables several features that are quite useful. Would it be possible to have an "Quick Launch" key/button in Input Settings instead? To avoid confusion "Quick Launch" could have no default assignment while the current "Select" stays as it is. This way one could put the Launch Ball button on "Quick Launch" and still access the Menu with the Genre button.
  2. For reference, here is what I have. I use the backer version at the moment but the steam version should work as well. ;#NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.PPdir = C:\Games\Pro-PinballRun, "%PPdir%\ProPinball.exe", %PPdir%sleep 1000Process, wait, ProPinball.exeWinWaitActive, ahk_class Cocos2dxWin32Send {F11}sleep 10000;MouseClick,left,685,920MouseClick,left,463,793process, WaitClose, ProPinball.exeExitApp; You can change your key bindings here#IfWinActive ahk_class Cocos2dxWin320::escapep::F4e:: Send {escape} sleep 1000 MouseClick,left,950,795 sleep 1000 Send {!F4}return#IfWinActive
  3. Just tried it - with fake fullscreen playfield I can capture BG, PF and DMD with gdigrab. So OBS can go
  4. I'm still using OBS but I guess ffmpeg should work too, now that the PF runs in windowed. The BG is still FS - wait, perhaps that was the problem? I'm positive it wasn't Aero - it's not running on my system. I can give ffmpeg a try if you are interested in the result.
  5. Thanks for your response. Got it to work now OBS v0.64b didn't give me better results - but I found another way. I put the FP playfield screen into windowed mode. For some reason Future Pinball didn't give me 1920x1080 as an option in Preferences/Video / Rendering Options, so I had to change the values for HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Future Pinball\GamePlayer\Width and ....\Height with regedit. I got rid of window title and border by modifying Ozon's Borderless DMD script for Pinball FX2 over here: https://gist.github.com/ozon/2c3b98161329b583b4a5#file-borderless_dmd-ahk Line 17: Replace IfWinExist Pinball FX2 DotMatrix with IfWinExist ahk_class FuturePinballOpenGL Uncomment line 23 - WinMove, , , 0, 0, 1920, 1080 You may comment out line 3 - Process, Priority,, High
  6. That or something like drawers would be nice. Press launch for starting the default version of MM, and an indicator that an menu with more versions of the same table is available by pressing, for instance, the start button.
  7. Thank you. I'm experiencing those delays too and was barking up a few wrong trees while looking for the cause. I did use an different approach before - replacing the vpinball.exe with a script - and replaced it with the alternateexe method a while ago and never made the connection. Maybe it is something simple like PinballX waiting for the wrong task to exit.
  8. Aw man so close. Your (heavily customized) VP script works flawlessly for me. I used a batch to replace every VP Vid on my cab with it. Thank you very much for that OBS doesn't capture the PF for me - it does capture the BG and FutureDMD's output. PF it does only capture the usual black screen - which is the desktop I think. I used OBS 0.651 Beta and tried both 32 and 64bit builds. I tried FP with and without BAM, the results are the same. I don't use audio so I used the ffmpg line without it. Any ideas what to try next?
  9. Seems to work flawlessly on my system. Thank you.
  10. #IfWinActive ahk_class SlamIt Pinball - Big Score;Left::LShift;Right::RShiftp::EscapeUp::f:: ;Send {q} Send {w} Send {a}returnDown::i:: Send {i} Send {o} ;Send {l}returne::!f4Enter::down5::11:: Send {s} Send {Enter}return#IfWinActiveHere is what I have for key bindings. Just copy it at the end of your script, behind ExitApp Replace Up:: with your Magnasave left key and Down:: with Magnasave right. Then you should have: Start button for selecting play at the game's menu Coin button for coin Start button for starting the game p for pause Launch button for plunger Magnasave left and right for nudging (sends two button presses at once)
  11. Hmm, looks interesting. I don't see a way for keys but for Nantech/VirtuaPin plunger kits - apparently it is possible to use a joystick to emulate a mouse with xpadder. I think I'll give it a try one day - it might be worth it for Rob-o-Bot alone
  12. I just went here to write this post. Looks like you ninja'd me by two days Perhaps it could be more generic, other emulators like FP would benefit from this too. I'd suggest OverrideExecutable as name instead. Also, not that important, but they would be nice to have: OverrideWorkingPath OverrideParameters
  13. Try a small delay before starting PinballX A small batch should do the job. @echo offping -n 5 127.0.0.1start c:\pinballx\pinballx.exe
  14. Thank you for considering it Custom lists are an useful feature but (assuming alphabethical sorting by description can't be disabled) I can not do with them what I can do with my current config now - going seamlessly from EM to EE to SS. If you sort alphabetically "Big Daddy (Williams 1963)" goes next to "Big Bang Bar (Capcom 1996)". They don't belong together. Tables like "Gorgar (Williams 1979)" and "Rolling Stones (Bally 1980)" are a much better match, but you won't see them together if you filter by decades.
  15. I'm starting to switch over from my heavily modified HP installation to pbx and would like to request two things: 1) An option to disable the info bar at the bottom or an option to make it not display the table description 2) An option to disable the table description in the (very useful) information area The reason I ask for this, I misused the table descriptions in my XML file to change sorting to my preference. I sort all recreations by manufactoring year and month. The originals are sorted by type (Bowler, Music Template, Pinball Game recreation), then alphabetically. Everything has a letter in front so I can skip up and down by 5 years. So my descriptions look funny. And they are missing all blanks and special characters. I got rid of everything that isn't alphanumeric while hunting for an bug in HP. d0199410RedAndTedsRoadShowWilliams d0199411TheShadowBally e0199501MaryShelleysFrankensteinSega e0199502BaywatchSega e0199503DirtyHarryWilliams e0199503StargateGottlieb You get the idea
