langlem Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Hello all... first time poster here. I have been working in my spare time all week trying to set up a very basic PinballX system. Just dipping my feet in the pool. I have pretty extensive experience setting up MAME in GameX, Mala, Hyperspin, etc... so this is all the set up pretty familiar to me. I have basically spent the last two days reading thru every post I could find here and the other forums as well as watched dozens of YT vids concerning setting up a new system. I am almost embarrassed to post this question because I am just sure the solution is beyond simple!! But at some point you have to concede and ask for help. Here is my basic setup... Win7 64bit I5 computer with a vid card that is more than enough. Just want to run a few dozen FP tables and then begin the process of building the cab. I am just using a keyboard with plans to add an ipac when the actual build commences. At the moment I have two monitors; a 40 inch 1920x1080 LCD for the playing field and a 27 inch 1600x1200 LCD for the backglass. (may add a 3rd screen for DMD down the road...but at this time two is fine.) I know others have had similar issues but I cant get ANY FP tables to load from the menu. They work just fine when running direct from the FP loader outside of PX. I have installed and uninstalled multiple times from scratch and always end up at the same point. In my log is says "system can not find the file...." I believe I have added them all correctly in the game manager?? I have changed the parameters several different times to everything I have found in relation to the issue... run everything as administrator... Followed Terry Reds excellent guide to the T best I can tell. I suspect I may have an XML issue...based on my regular MAME experience.. but am a bit unsure on how to double check that is right in PX. I will post a pic of my ini and screenshot of my settings. Sorry so long winded...just trying to get this solved. Any help is most appreciated!! log.txt PinballX.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carny_Priest Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 FPLoader should be in your BAM folder. You need to point your Working Path to the BAM folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
langlem Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 Oh man...that was it. I was just using the browse feature to locate the exe location...which seemed to point it in the correct spot. As soon as I manually typed in the FULL address location. Boom, worked as it should. Thanks so much! Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
