What do you mean ? Just out of the box a launcher for PBX ?

Also try  PinballX Database manager as an alternative way for gamemanger

Yes buddy. Is that okay?

Great news Tom!    My script works well but native support would be soooo much better!

Curious, has there been any talks with the Zaccaria devs to add launch commands to their software so special script won't be needed?  BTW, there is one flaw with the script.  If you don't own all the tables and there happens to be a sale, the script won't load the specific table due to a sale alert pop-up.

If you don't own the table, you can disable it in Databasemanager or gamemanager to avoid to select it in pbx

I only had one table active, one that I had purchased and before the script could load the actual table, Zaccaria would display a pop-up about the current sale it had.  Zaccaria devs really need to add direct table launch command like Zen Studios have done with their Pinball FX3.

Bought the robot table so just in case you did not know ... wheel images and logo available in other topic, music and database uploaded to ftp. Did not create any other media yet like backglass / table video / topper video

Hello, Sorry if this has been already asked...

Sometimes ESC does not exit out of Zaccaria. It instead goes to the Zaccaria menu.  

Anyone else have this problem?  If so, any solution?

I dont have any problems with the exit emulator button. Works fine for all emulators  (including zaccaria)

If you still encounter an issue, please open a new thread in the general Pimballx forum and attach your logfile, where you reproduced your issue and attach your pinballx.ini as well

Did you purchase it from the Microsoft store ? 
I only have experience with the steam. Maybe the original ahk file will work for you
EDIT : Could not find it anymore in the store.
Where did you get you r version from, as far as I know, is that Steam is the only one that has it.

EDIT2:
In the AHK, this is the part where it launches the steam version. Modify this for you installation

;From here run your zaccaria

RegRead, SteamDirPath, HKCU, Software\Valve\Steam, SteamPath

Run, "%SteamDirPath%\Steam.exe" -applaunch 444930 -rotate right

But no need to use the AHK anymore as Zaccaria now uses direct table launch.

Hello. I found it on the net. Does pinball x launch it directly? Is the database necessary? could you pass me a screenshot or similar of the configuration for zacarias? Thanks in advance

All your questions will be answered if you read the following thread : https://forums.gameex.com/forums/topic/26401-zaccaria-finally-has-direct-table-launch/#comments

but still, it requires the steam version.

Sorry to be a party pooper but here I go.

So far as I am aware Zaccaria Pinball is not officially distributed for purchase through channels other than Steam.

If you downloaded the app "from the internet" then discussion stops there. The official support through PinballX is the purchased Steam version only as Mike noted.  

Thanks.
