Switched to PinballX a while back I like the fact that you keep this Frontend updated and fresh best Frontend hands down! Keep up the great work!!!

Thank you guys

Very cool!! Congratulations!! I'm looking forward to VP MegaBalls. Thanks for sharing.

One of the best, all around HTPC and Gaming Frontends bar none.

Best Pinball frontend for me!

Excellent companion to Pinball X! Great way to check, load, and create missing media for your Pinball X setup. Must have! Thanks for all the work you guys do! Cheers!

This is a MUST HAVE application for anyone using Pinball X. It completely modernizes the database interface and makes it much easier and more convenient to use the front end. The app is easy to set up and receives regular updates keeping it current with latest trends and developments. The guys responsible for it @scutters and @Mike_da_Spike are some of the nicest and brightest people in our community, we're lucky to have such talent contributing to our hobby. Many thanks for all you guys do!

I drug my feet installing the utility. Yesterday I installed DBM and really enjoyed setting it up. I had to "clean" up my media and unused tables but the interface is so intuitive it was fun spending time with it. Thanks guys!

Years ago, I installed PinballX...and I am STILL using it. I will never go to Popper. PBX is far more friendly and mods better. The only bummer is that it isn't available for my Mac, but that isn't a deal breaker. Long live PBX!

I have always loved pinball, grew up with it in the arcades in the 80s, my favourite machines being Black Night and Black Hole, I can`t remember the amount of times I played those machines or how much it cost me But now at the age of 59 I decided late last year that I wanted a virtual pinball machine, I would love an original machine but the cost price is out of reach plus my home is on the small side, so virtual it was, but I wanted a desktop version so I could move it around the home or take it to gatherings for kids to play on. I thought this would be very easy as I have a strong background in electronics, so I built a cab with a 14.5" widescreen display and 8" back glass display, plus all the associated hardware , easy done, now software. I went for Pinup Popper with the "easy" baller installer, and indeed it installed flawlessly, however I could not configure my buttons, always showed an error, posted in forums, posted on YouTube, still no real answers as to the issue, frustrated I looked around the net and found PinballX. Took a chance, downloaded, installed, configured in 10 mins, running perfectly Now playing with the media folders, so may edit this post later with some pictures, so far I`m very impressed it works flawlessly and is very easy to setup. If there is an option to gift a coffee or some dollars I would be happy to do that as I see the project is still being developed. Cheers Alan B

I love the dark mode! I also (having tried other front ends) love this database manager, pinballX, and appreciate all of the hard work done to make and maintain the program(s).

This app has saved me so much time and I appreciate all your work on it! It really makes adding and changing media for PinballX a snap!

Thank you, this database Manager is superb!

It's a very good application. It replace the pinballx data manager. It is more visual and helpfull. Great app

Your PinballX Manager software is on another level. WOW. I opened this software and was absolutely amazed with what this can do. I tried it with one game, Absolute Genius for what it does and the simple interface it offers. It truly is a program that makes my table building better organized and operational. I know I write this after only one table however I do see the power in this tool. Now I have some building to do. Thank you for the privilege of your software. Shiptreked.

Awesome job and thanks for the frequent updates to meet @Tom Speirsupdates! Hopefully @scutters will be able to update the PinballX Wiki as @Mike_da_Spikesuggested! No pressure.. well maybe a tad..

Great job with the update Mike!

@Mike_da_SpikeThis tool helped me fix my PinballX startup issue after upgrading. For some reason, it was not liking my Pinball FX3 media even-though it was working before the upgrade. Thanks for good work. I am manually going through and unchecking some hide flags and I noticed some of the Pinball FX3 Marvel games were not matched correctly. I am going to try to correct them from my backup of my old database but I thought some info to fix it in the next release would be helpful . I will try to send you a message with the details when I have some time to fix the glitches during the holiday break. or point me to a forum topic where others are providing feedback.. Thanks.

The PinballX Database Manager program is easy to use and the support for it is IMO second to none. Thanks for your efforts in creating the program Guys! ***** I had an issue with my PinballX setup and Mike Da Spike walked me through it and all is good now.

Great Program. Makes it easy to drag and drop art files for tables. Also easy to see what art files are being used without launching PinballX.

hello for visual pinball he wants to update the wml base but i have this message, and ,he stops ! Starting adding new tables for system "Visual Pinball" IPDB MATCH : No IPDB Match found for [Hardbody (Bally 1987) 1.3] ERROR INFO : clXMLfiles_SelectedIndexChanged Error in Like operator: the string pattern 'Hawkman (Taito do Brasil - 1983) - v.3.0.0 - rev.2.0 [D&N][CC][FSS][SS][10.6+][Morttis]' is invalid. would you be where the bug is ? (i think it's the special characters that don't work)

As always, scutters improving everything possible. I put here some that I have moved from my previous Company Logos folder to the new one, in case you want to improve and / or add them. Most of them are Spanish. I have even seen that Talleres Llobregat has it renamed and displayed as "(Automaticos)". In Spain they are known as Tallerres Llobregat or Talleres del Llobregat and associated with the terrestrial globe, by Automáticos I have not realized at first, because we do not know by that name.

hello yes sorry c is translated i forgot to put in english to make the update online it is necessary to pay a subscription?

Merci super Taf

Really awesome work, It has all the features top really simplify game management in Pinballx, will save allot of time. Really appreciated and this makes Pinballx Really Rock!!!! Great Christmas present Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!

Been using Pinballx for a number of years managing a collection of about 400 machines. I've always done things manually as I felt it was quicker than using the Pinballx game manager. I decided to try this Database Manager as I wanted something that fully supported the new list features. I gave it a try yesterday and have already found it to be incredibly useful. It has helped me quickly find some missing assets, fill in a lot of blanks (ipdb number, author, rom, etc.) and it lets me use and create new filters that can be used both for this tool and for the Pinballx Lists. GREAT JOB!!!

Hola a tod @ s. que hay que hacer para poder descargarlo? Estoy empezando a pinbalear y aún no me entero muy bien. Gracias.

Another great product from the GameEx team! After having a great time with the PinballX front-end, I found GameEx Evolution which again upped my DIY home arcade! Never using the first GameEx, I wanted to give the newer version a go and have had great results so far. Like I mentioned in my PinballX review, this is a great way to show off your ROM collection... more than just a way to play, but a way to marvel at how far we have come from the PONG days. As a child of the 80's arcades, this is a great way to browse through the varied systems and see screenshots, videos and other information that you would be hard pressed to find any other way. I found the setup to be a lot better than the old version (I loaded it up to see what it was like), more focused on the emulators you have installed and getting them to work. This is still in beta, and as such there are a few hiccups (can't get the number of times played stats to save for each game) but overall it is a great front-end for MAME or any other system. Thanks guys!!

Wow ! I really like PinballX and GameManager had some limits, but this program really good guys ! Why isn't this a replacement and shipped with PinballX ? @Mike_da_Spike & @scutters keep up the good work ! Thanks guys !

Brilliant!!!

They are beautiful, but still trying to figure out how to DL the entire set. I haven't actually installed them yet, but inclined to use the entire set for continuity. Good Job!

Straight from Brazil. I've been a user since 2015 and a member since 2017 and your work is simply SPECTACULAR. Now with the recent release of Zen's Pinball FX on Steam, I came back to include it in my cabinet and was even more impressed with everything else they included in the program. I'm still on version 5.54 and will update to use all the new features, like the impressive PinballX Database Manager. Once again, congratulations and a happy 2025.

Love, Love this front end! well done....best out there

truculent !

best

Excellent

This program is magnificent, thank you🥰

I used the DATABASE very little, now that I have some problems with the PBXRecorder I'm going to try to get everything working perfectly with this, I'll tell you... MY CONGRATULATIONS!

Thank you very much. I apreciate it.

Excellent. (Note the link to FFMPEG.org on page 4-44 of the version I downloaded with PinballX has a typo and it gets reported as a suspicious link because it's going to a domain squatter.)

thanks you
