I'm washing my hands.

i've come to the conclusion it is impossible to run future pinball out of game ex. no one at any forum knows how to do it, or is replying. what a loss.

[Atari800]

Have you checked out the HELP in Future Pinball?

The command line is

"future pinball.exe" /open "[rompath]\[romfile]" /play /exit

Not infront of Gameex to tell you exaclty what to put in configuration but that command line works

[Evilforces]

I think that its possible. I´n not at home, this afternoon i will put here my config. I´m runnin future pinball in gameex, sure.

Section pinball with inside would appeal to to me but to have one vp and fp. Like Zinc and model2 for Mame. Someone knows like making?

As Atari says, the information is in the Future Pinabll's help file!

"future pinball.exe" /open "[rompath]\[romfile]" /play /exit

Maybe I should have said that when I mentioned FP originally as an option...

Sometimes it can take a few days for people to respond to help requests. This forum has a pretty good bunch of people who share their knowledge readily, but even here sometimes things take a while. Don't give up, do some more research and re-ask the question if you can't get anywhere. That's what I do!

thanks for the up-lift. i was so frustrated last night between future pinball and chankast, i was losing it. I tried the command you have above, and it still won't launch. I did find a wrapper here: http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/Wrappe...y_other_authors

but i still can't get it to launch. does anyone have it runnin in game ex?!

No worries, It can get to us all!

I tried the sbaby config above and it works OK for me...

Try copying that config directly into the CONFIG\gameex.ini file under an emulator number (changing paths where appropriate of course)

Shouldn't need an external wrapper, the command line does work.

If that doesn't work, what is happening? Details?

works, fine! thank the lord. now i just have to crack this chankast mess, and i'll be 100% game ex front ended. you woulnd't have a working chankast config? i have my wrapper shortcuts (game.lnk) set up so the target line is C:\Dreamcast\chankast_launch.exe -exit -drive g -delay 10 -fullscreen -screen 1280x1024 -cpu 108 -showstats -daemon "C:\Program Files\Daemon Tools\daemon.exe" 0 "C:\Dreamcast\Games\zer-mvc2.cdi" when double clicking the .lnk it mounts the game, and opens chankast... not in fullscreen, nor running the selected game.

No sorry, haven't looked at Dreamcast.
