No worries guys thanks for all your help. I'll give database manager a try at some point and get back to you. Just one quick question though. Will all of the tables I already set-up in PBX still remain if I swap over? Thanks again.
-
Hi Guys I didn't mean to be rude when I asked what you use. I didn't know about the database manager or that you wrote it! I might giver it a go at some point but as I said I'm a bit scared to update anything right now.
-
It's showing stuff that isn't even in my tables folder. Stuff I deleted a long time ago. Anyway, what manager do you use? It might work better for me.

Mirkin started following Friday 13th Issue and Hopefully an easy question.

When |I want to add a table to PBX a window opens that I can choose the table from:- [Game Manager - add game - select] This winow is full of files I've deleted and some other random rubbish. Can somebody tell me how it is populated so that I can clear the list out. Thanks for looking.

I tried Alt tab but that didn't work. I'm going to do an update when I feel brave enough. I'll report back!

Hi Mike I find that all sorts of crazy things happen. Tables won't load. Vpinmame doesn't load/crashes. These things happen after I upgrade even if run tables from VPX without PBX. Do you have any idea what might cause these things?

Hi Folks When I launch Friday 13th from PBX the playfield doesn't show on my monitor. The game is running but I just get a black screen. I can see the backglass and DMD. If I go into VPX and uncheck "Force exclusive full screen mode" it does. It works fine when starting from VPX via the OS in either mode. I'm not sure if this is a table issue or because it is the only one I have with FlexDMD running. I have VPX V10.7 and PBX V2.5 (I know this is very old but it works fine otherwise. I have tried to upgrade a lot of times and had many issues) Any help appreciated. Mirkin

Thanks for the the very detailed help Joyrider. I spent a lot of time today fixing things and have got my system somewhere close to where it was before. I never usually install software on my cab without making a full back-up just before and that has saved me many times. I took the chance because PBX has never given me any issues before now. My cab runs smoother without PBX anyway (I have fixed PBX) so I'm running VPX without a front end and it's not such an issue to me.

I installed the 64 bit version. I'll have to check what version was installed. I don't know what happened but I had to do a full system restore. Lot's of things stopped working like ultra DMD. My last save was from about 6 months ago so I lost a lot of stuff that I've set-up. Oh Well

Hello there. Can Anybody help me please. I just upgraded to V3.29 of PBX and now it will not work at all. I did a 64Bit install as this is what my OS is and when I tried to run PBX the little circle spun a a short time and then nothing happened. I managed to run the lite version but there was no backglass image and I could not choose a table. I decided to do a system restore and now when I try and run PBX i just get the message saying it has stopped working. It won't start at all. The problem event name in the pop-up is CLR20r3. Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks for looking.

PinballX Enhancements/Features Requests
Mirkin replied to Draco1962's topic in FAQs, Guides, & Other Useful Information
Hi Would it be possible to add an option to scan the PinballX media folder and delete any files that are not being used by the database? I have various systems set up on pinball X and every time a table comes out for VPX and I remove it from VP9.9 the files are left behind. I have hundreds of duplicate/unused files now and manually sorting them would be very time consuming. Thanks -
Hi draco Here are the files you requested. I've tried updating to version 2.12 oveer the top of my existing installation and also doing a fresh installation. All of tyhe problems that I've described in the two posts above still persist. If you need any more info just ask. Thanks for the support. log.txt PinballX.ini

Hi Draco Thanks for the reply. I won't get a chance until later, but if you take a look at this topic you can see my files. I hardly used pinballx since then because of the issue described in that thread. I'm thinking a fresh install might be the way to go. If I do that which files do I need to copy back across to get it working the same. I really don't want to manually add 80 tables again ? If this info is no good I'll get more recent files later. Thanks again.

Hi all. I have Demolition Man running on my cab in VPX creamy smooth. Until I play it through pinballX when it stutters like crazy. Also if I play Dirty Harry through pinballX (I didn't try another yet) without B2S running the flippers lock up. Again, why?? I never had any issues with PinballX before VPX but now I have a lot! I have no idea why this and any advise is very welcome. Cheers for looking.
