  1. So I have been working vigorously to get my cabinet set up as completely as possible. I have been going through and removing duplicate tables and trying to make sure I have all media - wheel images, flyers, company logos. And the latter is where I'm suddenly having an issue. I decided that I wanted to be as thorough and exacting as possible, so instead of just having a single company logo for each manufacturer I have logos corresponding to the specific time period that the machine was created. I differentiate them by giving them unique names. The following are some examples. Bally Bally Manufacturing Company / Bally Manufacturing Corporation / Bally Midway Manufacturing Company / Bally Midway Manufacturing Company Gottlieb D. Gottlieb and Company (Gottlieb) / D. Gottlieb and Company, Columbia Pictures / D. Gottlieb and Company / Premier Technology (Gottlieb) Stern Stern Electronics, Incorporated / Stern Pinball, Incorporated / Stern Pinball Williams Williams Electronics Games, Incorporated / Williams Electronics Manufacturing Company / Williams Electronics, Incorporated This was working in my cabinet for a while but then out of the blue certain manufacturers would show me the "No Image" logo. This may have happened after a program update, but I'm not completely sure. However a computer that I had a a different location for testing and setup while away from the cabinet continued to display the images properly. That is until last night when I updated to PinballX 2.50. Now I'm having the same issue. The strange thing is that my old PinballX.ini which I saved previous to the last update doesn't really appear to have any different settings than the new one (at least not settings that should affect logo display). What's even stranger is that some of the logos still display fine. For instance the Bally and Gottlieb sets seem to all display, while the Stern and Williams don't. Because of this, I can't see a common thread that could be causing the problem. I originally thought that maybe the names were not unique enough, but that would seem to be a problem with the Bally and Gottlieb images if that were the case. I also thought maybe PinballX was having a problem with the commas in the names, but again, some of the Gottlieb files work fine with commas. When this first happened on the cabinet, I tried shortening the names to abbreviations. I tried SEI and SPI for Stern Electronics Incorporated and Stern Pinball Incorporated and the images still wouldn't display. I'd really like to get this resolved as I have put a lot of time into finding/making the unique company logos and researching to proper logo associated with each machine. I've included a screen shot of my Company Logos folder contents, my PinballX.ini file, and a few screen shot of my database files to show a few tables that are't showing the logos. Thanks, J PinballX.ini
  2. Hi guys hoping you can help me with some final tweaking on my pinball cab. I have a 3 screen setup and running custom videos on my third monitor DMD screen whilst browsing FP tables in PinballX, they are movie trailers or cut scenes to match the table. This is working fine, my issue is that when I launch a FP table the videos freezes and just displays a black screen for the DMD for the whole time the table is running. I want the video to continue playing the looping video whilst the table is running if possible, can this be done? I`m not using Future DMD at all, do I need to run the videos through Future DMD or something? I have "hide DMD" un-checked in PinballX table manager which I thought allowed DMD/Backglass videos to continue playing on table launch. Any help would be very much appreciated, thanks in advance!!!
  3. I'm very new to Pinball X, and I want to know how to make lists or groups to sort Tables more easily. I'm not sure what makes lists or groups different, though. Basically, I want to be able to sort Tables by Year, or by Manufacturer, or even both. I'd like to be able to choose a Manufacturer, and then seeing a list of Tables by that Manufacturer sorted by Year. Can anybody help me out? It would also be nice if some extra graphics could be added to each Table on the selection screen. The white text on a mostly black background feels a bit boring to me.
  4. About a month ago, Steam pushed out a patch and now my FX tables launch to the Steam Store through PinballX vs. launching the table. I downloaded the latest 2.41 release with FX3 added in the hopes it would work but it takes me to the Steam Store too. I tried working with Steam and they went silent. Any ideas why this is happening? It use to work back in August. Sorry if this was already addressed in the forums. I looked but couldn't find anything exactly like this.
  5. MegaDocklets Visual Pinball Pack1 View File I am creating the Megadocklets for Visual Pinball, I personally like I was doing that type sign. Roughly half of them have done from existing Draco for Pinball Arcade and the other half from scratch, using your template. The other type sign are good to put in the hollow of the DMD when the game has DMD, but these MegaDocklets are more colorful and since I have them in use in PinballFX2, Pinball Arcade and Pro Pinball, because I want everyone to see for same. At the moment I turn up the initial Pack 1 with 44 tables that are in VPX packs that I have uploaded. Later I will go up another pack with the main tables that are not yet in VPX but that we VP9. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Estoy creando los Megadocklets para Visual Pinball, personalmente me gustan más que los que estaba haciendo tipo letrero. Más o menos la mitad de ellos los he hecho a partir del ya existente de Draco para Pinball Arcade y la otra mitad desde cero, usando su plantilla. Los otros tipo letrero quedan bien para poner en el hueco del DMD cuando el juego no tiene DMD, pero estos MegaDocklets son más vistosos y ya que los tengo en uso en PinballFX2, Pinball Arcade y Pro-Pinball, pues quiero que se vean todos por igual. De momento subo el Pack 1 inicial con las 44 mesas que hay en los packs de VPX que yo tengo subidos. Posteriormente subiré otro pack con las principales mesas que aún no están en VPX pero sí que las tenemos en VP9.

  6. When I try to run a game on Steam through PinballX I get a warning error saying "Allow game launch?" which is hidden behind other windows. It does this because PinballX attempts to launch a Steam file with specific launch options parameters in order to load a specific table. Is there any way to disable this and always allow the game to launch? I've tried what I've found online including changing compatibility properties to have it always run as an Admin, reinstalling the game, reinstalling Steam, and more. Nothing has worked though. Any idea what to do?
  7. Hi, I have had PinballX working fine with Visual Pinball 10.3.1 and Pinball FX2. Today I noticed that the VPX ROM videos play fine in pinballX , but the default "No Real DMD" video has stopped playing . I have read through forum posts and cannot figure out what maybe causing it not to not play the video. I have tried to assign videos for the PinballFx2 tables, but none of them play. I am running the following: Windows 10 Pin2DMD (real DMD) which works fine in for PinballFx2 and VPX, just not in PinballX PinballX 2.36 Any help would be appreciated.
  8. I am having a small issue with mapping the right joystick in side of settings.exe, it can't see the SteamLink controller. Any suggestions?
  9. So, I have a scenario where I want to run two different setups for PinballX .... one where its being used in 'VR' Mode and another via SteamLink without VR. The issue I am having is finding a way to launch PinballX and tell it which PinballX.ini file to use. I am pulling whats left of my hair out tryin to work this out. I don't really want to run two copies of PinballX if possible.
  10. Hi Folks, Got an interesting and frustrating bug. Sometimes my table audio will glitch. Either while browsing through the wheel, or during attract mode. after a while , or a few scrolls through my modest 40 tables. I get the glitch. The table audio will begin playing for the currently highlighted table, and then it will skip and repeat the first .5 of a second of the table audio file. Forever. If you then scroll to another table it will change audio file, but still be skipping/repeating the first .5 second of the new Table Audio file. It will do this untill you exit and restart PinballX. Loading a table, and then exiting back out to pinballX doesn't fix it. The glitch will persist. At first I thought, "It seems to be happening at a particular point in the wheel, somewhere around M-P in the alphabet." So I re encoded the audio files in the problem zone to .wavs and re imported them. No improvement. I then thought. Maybe its some kind of bug as it loads and closes video codecs. I only have a few videos in my media , so I deleted all videos and run with JUST .png files for table, dmd, and backglass on all tables. ( no b2s being used at all ) No improvement. I also triggered the glitch by selecting "Bally/Williams" category. Just now. So I'm stumped. Seems to appear randomly now. As far as I know I'm running the latest PinballX And it seems to be something to do with loading and playing a Table audio file. But no particular one. System Specs: Q9505 4 gig DDR 2 Samsung pro SSD 256gig Gtx 760 3 screen Pinball Cab. Realtek motherboard audio chip. Please help , loosing my mind.
  11. I saw there are more people asking for this same issue, but there is no solution for it yet. Topics are closed without a solution. On my new installed system with Win10 x64, PinballX 2.36, Pinball FX2 (non steam) I encounter the same problem. Pinball FX2 tables are starting from the PinballX menu but when I exit the table it will return to PinballX but the backglass and DMD are stuck on the backglass monitor and Pinball FX2 is still playing in the background. I can't start a new table from this moment until I close Pinball FX2 myself. I also tried a KillTask.bat and use it as a Launch After in the settings like someone mentioned, but this isn't working too. Hopefully someone knows a solution or workaround.

  12. Hi All, I've been using GameEx for some time on my upright and now I have a bit of time I would like to transfer the upright roms to my PinballX set up. I can easily sort the vertical games out but to save a lot of time fiddling is there an easy way to get GameEx to export a mame.xml file for PinballX I have Googled to no avail...
  13. Hi Completly new to all this and I'm just testing out software before making my cabinet build (both cab and pc). I've got PinballX working "nicely" with VP, FP and FX2, got table booting up fine with single screen so far (my eventual aim is 2 screen + pinDMD3) But I can't for the life of me get PBA to work. The machine i'm testing on *can't* do DX11, the machine I'm going to make *will* be able too, so if thats a prerequisite I'll just have to stop the testing for now. This means I can't test with the FreeCamMod that I see lots of you use. When I try to launch a table, pinballX "closes" to black screen and then it just hangs for maybe 10 seconds, then the desktop is diplayed....PBA doesn't appear to launch at all? This is the case both via Steam and if I install offline outside of Steam. The XML file i have is just the one that automatically generates but i've attached here... This is my PinballArcade config setup... [PinballArcade] WorkingPath=C:\Pinball\PinballArcade Executable=PinballArcade.exe Parameters=-applaunch 238260 Process=PinballArcade.exe WaitForSelect=50 Enabled=True InterfaceVersion=3 I've tried with all InterfaceVersions but I don't think they are having any effect because the app just doesn't seem to execute?

  14. Is PinballX version 2.31 supposed to reach out to the internet on startup? I see traffic like this in startup... 33974856oeocfn.spesoft.info/gameex/checkpinballx.asp?c=VpCabs1012 I have the following lines in the PinballX.ini file, and according to a previous post on this topic, version 2.30 and higher no longer checks the internet for a specific version. [Partner] DontDisplayUpdateMessage=True Code=VpCabs1012 Anyone know why the startup of version 2.31 still appears to reach back for version information? I just want to make sure this is not going to stop working a year from now. Thanks,
  15. Upgraded PinballX and not having any luck getting the Table Videos to work. All other videos work just fine. Running version 2.31 PinballX (latest) and just get a black background. I have tried F4V and MP4 formats and both do not work. PinballX worked 100% using these same files, same setup, same everything (just different version of PinballX) Any ideas?

  21. Hello everyone. I have read for hours and tried multiple times, but I cannot get PinballX to launch a future pinball table using BAM. I've typed out the pinballx ini file exactly like I've seen posted. I've used the STAYINRAM both at the beginning and the end of the parameter line. I've tried under the future pinball setup and using custom system in pinball. Here is what is happening. I click to load a table from pinballx. Then the screen flashes and goes into windows7 and there is a window of future pinball up. No table is loaded. In the start bar, pinball x is minimized. I then can close future pinball and reopen pinball x as if nothing happens. For some reason, it is executing the FPloader.exe but is not selecting a table. Any ideas?
  22. Hi there, Is there a way to rotate the DMD 90 or 270 degrees in PinballX Frontend? My 3rd screen in my cabinet is rotated 90 degrees and I can't find a way to rotate the dmd, like I did in visual pinball successfully. Many thanks for your help.
  23. I made a few startup videos on my phone while bored at work. Check em out!
  24. 2 questions What does the full screen window setting in pinballX have to do with the back glass videos showing up? when I set it to NO the back glass videos do not play When I run pinball FX2 through pinballX the videos on the back glass freeze when I'm running the game But when I back out of the game the video starts running again Is there a way to solve this? 21:43:02.7 9/28/2016: PinballX - Version 2.27 21:43:02.7 9/28/2016: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (7.8GB) 21:43:02.7 9/28/2016: Loading Settings 21:43:02.7 9/28/2016: Initialize Component 21:43:02.8 9/28/2016: Initialize Display 21:43:03.9 9/28/2016: Loading PlugIns 21:43:03.9 9/28/2016: Loaded Plugin:"DirectOutput PinballX Plugin" Version 1 By Swisslizard 21:43:04.5 9/28/2016: PlugIn: "DirectOutput PinballX Plugin" Initialized OK 21:43:04.5 9/28/2016: Using Plugin System Version: 1 21:43:04.5 9/28/2016: Loaded Plugin:"FutureDMD PinballX Stats" Version 1 By GauntletLover 21:43:04.5 9/28/2016: PlugIn: "FutureDMD PinballX Stats" Initialized OK 21:43:04.5 9/28/2016: Using Plugin System Version: 1 21:43:04.6 9/28/2016: Created DirectX BackGlass Window 21:43:04.9 9/28/2016: Hiding Cursor 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Hiding Taskbar 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: GPU 1: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: GPU 2: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Displays: 3 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Load Game List 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Loading Database: Future Pinball 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Loading Database: Visual Pinball 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Loading Database: PinballFX2 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Loading Database: Visual Pinball 921 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Loading Database: VP physmod5 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Loading Database: Trapshoot_b6 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Loading Database: Visual Pinball 10 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Loading Custom Database: Future Pinball - 21:43:05.0 9/28/2016: Loading Custom Database: Visual Pinball - 21:43:05.1 9/28/2016: Loading Custom Database: pinballfx2 - 21:43:05.1 9/28/2016: Loading Custom Database: Visual Pinball 921 - 21:43:05.1 9/28/2016: Loading Custom Database: VP Physmod5 - 21:43:05.1 9/28/2016: Loading Custom Database: Visual Pinball 10 - 21:43:05.1 9/28/2016: Finding and matching artwork and videos 21:43:07.3 9/28/2016: Loading Game Statistics and Scores 21:43:07.5 9/28/2016: Loading Surfaces 21:43:07.6 9/28/2016: Finished Loading Surfaces 21:43:07.6 9/28/2016: Initialize Audio 21:43:07.6 9/28/2016: Set Keyboard Controls 21:43:07.6 9/28/2016: Initialize Joystick 21:43:07.8 9/28/2016: 1 Joystick Attached 21:43:07.8 9/28/2016: Started 21:43:14.2 9/28/2016: Exiting 21:43:14.4 9/28/2016: Showing Taskbar 21:43:14.5 9/28/2016: Unhiding Mouse Cursor 21:43:14.5 9/28/2016: Disposing Plugins 21:43:14.5 9/28/2016: Saving Settings 21:43:14.5 9/28/2016: Bye
