I have not gone so far as to uninstall. If you are willing to put more effort against this, I'm willing to test. Least I can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I haven't uninstalled yet either, but haven't seen if they have changed the UI under My Tables to the same level that they have with the alpha sub groups under A-Z. If not, that would be the best option to use. If they have, then it really doesn't matter. I will be glad to try to test again, but haven't much time during the next week due to family issues.

Mesié Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I just logged as I wasn't able to load tables and discovered this thread. In my opinion, this has come to a point in which the community and modders should adapt the cam mod and launcher to non retail versions. I mean,many of us love TPA, we buy their tables and respect their position, but the new interface doesn't even work with a controller for Christ sake (not even well).

PcTeknic Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Yes Yes of course. All I'm saying is that now works because it has been updated, but that soon will be the same. While TPA do not do something, we are always the same. It is not my intention to criticize your answer, if not TPA. Not if the translator will have put something wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mace Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Cool, sorry that's what comes of reading things quickly in a train strike. Yes Farsight are all gits, they promised support, showed cabinet demonstrations and based on their empty promises we all bought a pile of tables that now only work on the one thing we all are trying to avoid, a desktop PC. I'd like it to work on principle but to be honest I'll probably just use VPinballX and dump the lot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PcTeknic Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 At the end they will be the ones who lose . With this all you get is that people stop using their game and of course stop buying their tables or any other game we do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mace Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Sadly they have legions of phone users and only a few enthusiasts. Of course if they invited those of us who are engrossed in pinball and prepared to spend hours trying to recreate it to test the product it may get better.......but that would imply that someone cares enough to reach out to the community. It really is their loss as, even if they cannot support cabinet modes, coming clean and clearly explaining this would be an honest step forward. And there is no reason for them to build that terrible interface, even on a PC it's simply awful.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Okay folks, we are back up and running again. Please test and let me know in this topic. I also made an enhancement to remove the window title bar and frame from the window. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PcTeknic Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Pinball FX2 and pro- pinball , also have their versions of Android without cabinet support. But its PC version if you have cabinet support, pro- pinball since its launch and PinballFX2 by user requests . If they want possible, but do not want .

mace Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 2.26 installed by unfortunately not working, videos as before results are consistent: Short: https://1drv.ms/v/s!Ao6k3CIlgOqjnJlPayZf-oFiGN6hHw Medium: https://1drv.ms/v/s!Ao6k3CIlgOqjnJlUSd3Fy-_c4a_HVw Long: https://1drv.ms/v/s!Ao6k3CIlgOqjnJlRUUJC7o0I4QMZoA Very Long: https://1drv.ms/v/s!Ao6k3CIlgOqjnJlSJMghIJp2sdonlA Try to ignore the domestic running commentary in the background....<sigh> One other point Tom, I run a small batch file to rotate the screen on choosing 'Exit' from the PinballX menu, it works fine but I've noticed that I get a CMD.EXE crash every time I choose the 'Shutdown' option. Although this is irritating rather than critical I've tried to fix it by experimenting with the wait for program to end setting but it's made no difference. Disabling the exit batch program stops the error but also stop the 'Exit' functioning correctly. I wondered if it would be possible to check the 'Exit' program had completed before ac tioning //shutdown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I think you need to set the interface mode to V3. It is a new value. Ill look at the other issue when I get a chance. Thanks for taking a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only remaining issue now is as a game finishes the final score window is out of focus and therefore the only option is to exit and reload the game to play again, not sure if this is fixable other than by moving the mouse. at the moment if anyone else has the issue giving the table a nudge works........

mace Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Hi Tom, Loaded v2.27 and everything is as is should be as far as I can see. The shutdown issue is fixed, great job thank you. I'll keep testing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 I have tested the latest version and still have problems regardless of the delay selected. I can hear what sounds like keypresses while at the TPA Start screen. I am not using the Free Camera Mod, just the integrated support. I will provide copies of my logfile and pinballx.ini files when I am able to fire up the pincab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mace Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Hi Draco, I get that issue if TPA DX11 is running in Full screen rather the Full Screen Windowed in the TPA set up program. Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I am running the DX9 version since there is no way (at least that I am aware of) to call it into action via the integrated TPA support without either a.) renaming the exe or b.) running the FCM. I will try changing the settings in TPA DX9 exe to see if that makes any difference. Thanks for the tip. P.S. If anyone has a tip on how to run the DX11 exe without renaming the exe or using FCM or using any AHK trickery, I am willing to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mace Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I've just renamed the DX9 version from pinballarcade.exe to pinballarcade9.exe then copied the pinballarcade11.exe and renamed the copy to pinballarcade.exe and dropped it back into the same folder. that keeps Steam happy if that's what you are trying to avoid upsetting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
