hey thanks a ton! so far GameEX is the best front end i've used.

I'm guessing no one really knows what the issue is but any help would be awesome since this is a pretty strange issue.

hey guys, I just have one quickie, When im in gameex and I go to play a game it opens up mame in a rather small screen. I've tried all the different ways I could fix it but nothing yet. Any help would be great.

hey, tried it and it still doesn't work, It seems to be isolated to Data East games. This is really annoying because every other game works.

yeah i have it set to run also, "vpauto.exe" the table was guns and roses and also star wars (both sega i believe)

I have another quetsion that I'm pretty sure is more to do with GameEX than pinmame. When I open up vispinball from windows and open a table they all open fine but when I open it from GameEX it tells me it cant find the DE.vbs file and a bunch of other things (that it needs version 1 or greater). Also some games will give me a message saying the same thing but the .vbs file instead is a gts3.vbs. Any help would be awesome. thanks

I do have one more question, which is open to anyone. I was wondering why some of these tables open up but my screen just shows the back part of a pinball machine? (like the lights and credits and scores). Thanks

hey thanks a ton ourgrace! you've made it work finally. So thanks again. One last question, is there alot of configuring that needs to take place to get each game to work correctly and for them to open in full screen instead of windowed and such. thanks

do you mean so it looks like this: C:\Program Files\Visual Pinball\Tables play -"[ROMPath]/[ROMFILE]" and i'm not sure where the export feature is.

more than you need im sure. 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Validating: Emulator_3: Custom Background: 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Warning: Emulator_3: Custom Background Does not exist 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Validating: Emulator_3: Snap Path: 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Warning: Emulator_3: Snap Path Does not exist 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Validating: Emulator_3: Database: VISUALPINBALL 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Warning: Emulator_3: Database Does not exist 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Validating: Emulator_3: Title Snap Path: 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Warning: Emulator_3: Title Snap Path Does not exist 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Validating: Emulator_3: Box Art Path: 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Warning: Emulator_3: Box Art Path Does not exist 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Validating: Emulator_3: Cart Art Path: 19:39:51.5 1/12/2007: Warning: Emulator_3: Cart Art Path Does not exist 19:39:54.8 1/12/2007: Running: cmd.exe /c C: vpinball-xpfix4.exe -play -"C:\Program Files\Visual Pinball\Tables/Star Trek - TNG 5.0 (tb6).vpt" 19:39:55.7 1/12/2007: Also Launching: "c:\program files\gameex\vpauto.exe" 19:40:18.6 1/12/2007: Running: cmd.exe /c C: vpinball-xpfix4.exe -play -"C:\Program Files\Visual Pinball\Tables/tutorial.vpt" 19:40:19.5 1/12/2007: Also Launching: "c:\program files\gameex\vpauto.exe" 19:40:26.7 1/12/2007: Exiting GameEx! 19:40:26.7 1/12/2007: Saving Settings 19:40:29.4 1/12/2007: Disposing Plugins 19:40:29.4 1/12/2007: Checking for applications to Launch On Exit

When I go into the roms folder and open the star trek TNG .vpt file it will open the table up. I tried changing what you said and the same stuff still happens.

here is another one: 18:45:41.6 1/12/2007: Running: cmd.exe /c C: ..\vpinball-xpfix4.exe -play -"Star Trek - TNG 5.0 (tb6).vpt" 18:45:42.5 1/12/2007: Also Launching: "c:\program files\gameex\vpauto.exe" 18:45:53.6 1/12/2007: Exiting GameEx! here are some of my paths also: working path: C:\Program Files\Visual Pinball\Tables ROM path: C:\Program Files\Visual Pinball\roms command line: ..\VPinball-XPFix4.exe -play -"[ROMFILE]" also launch: C:\Program Files\GameEx\vpauto.exe

hey guys, First off I love GameEX. My problem (and i've done some reading on here) is that everytime I try to run a table from GameEX the screen goes black like its going to load and then within a few seconds it brings me back to the GameEX GUI screen. Any help would be great. Thanks Peter
