    Hey Frodus PS2 is fine I have an adapter and thanks. Ok, try setting Rotate = 270 not 90 that should rotate your screen the same way you have Pinballx setup. Make sure you rotate you screen Ctrl+Alt+Right before you run the "Launch Configuration Utility" and then back Ctrl+Alt+Up before you test. See if that helps.

    Hey All Can some one with a REAL DMD post or email me a video of some of the new Real DMD LED videos. I am really curious how it looks on a Real DMD and I don't have one, so it's all guess work as to how it will look. Thanks, Jeff / Time299

    Hey MPad I am very puzzled about how your setup is working one thing you mentioned a few posts back is "one more thing about the table autostart feature. As reported it doesn't work for me to disable it with "false". In addition I noticed it had massive influence on the timing on my system. when set to fasle the game starts slow, especially when selcting tables in the middle like "gorgar" or "harley davidson" and it won't work at all (stuck at attack from mars). strangely when I set autostart to "true" it is way more fluent and every table works. maybe I can even lower my timing now... can you explain what the autostart does? is it not just another "enter" keypress?" I have triple checked the code and there is only one place it is called and that is after the table is selected. Here is the code. If (AutoStart = "true") { Send {Enter} Sleep, %ScreenDelay% Send {Enter} Sleep, %ScreenDelay%}I made it press enter twice because if you haven't played the table it skips the info page and if you have played the table the extra enter is ignored. So if you have it set to false the table should load, but say in the flyby/start screen waiting for you to press enter.If you have it set to true the table should load and then enter is pressed twice and the table should be started and ready to play. That is the way it works on all of the test system I have setup. Nothing is slower or faster with the menu selection or loading of NukePA or Pinball Arcade and this should have no effect on selecting the correct table or not. This code is only fired after everything else is done. I hope this helps. Jeff / Time299

    Hey Frodus My setup is normally in Portrait/Vertical when playing pinball. But for testing and programming I always test both Portrait/Vertical and Landscape/Horizontal with no issues using the Steam versions and the Offline versions of Pinball Arcade. What are you running to do the Rotation? iRotate / Display Changer / Video Card Software? Is there some issue with posting your files? I need to see them to see how it might be causing the issue you are having You can email them to me, my email address is in the top of the NukePA.ini. Also you may want to try skipping NukePA temporally and try launching Pinball Arcade from PinballX just for testing to see if that works. Oh, and also can you try this in Portrait and then in Landscape http://www.nukelauncher.com/item.asp?iid=33#CommandPrompt Make sure you rotate you screen before you run the "Launch Configuration Utility" and then back between your tests.

    On another topic. The NukePA Media Pack has been updated so re-download it. 1. "High-Speed, Star Trek TNG, and Twilight Zone" videos fixed/replaced. 2. All new DMD Images for Older LED tables. 3. All new DMD Videos made from scratch for Older LED tables. 4. All new Real DMD Images for Older LED tables. 5. All new Real DMD Videos made from scratch for Older LED tables. 6. All media for the new Earthshaker added. 7. All media for "Theater of Magic" was re-named to "Theatre of Magic" to match XML and the real name of the table. Here is an example of one of the new and original DMD Videos I made from scratch for all of the older LED tables. Enjoy, Jeff / Time299

    Hey MPad You are correct timing is very finicky in Pinball Arcade, if you open it up with out NukePA and just use the up down arrows you will see what I mean. Sometimes you press up and it moves 2 or 3 tables and other key-presses are skipped. This was the reason no one ever attempted a launcher. I found a sweet spot in the key press/duration timing that AHK allows. It'd defined like this "SetKeyDelay, 0, 120" this is different from normal games/programs. In Pinball FX2 I can omit this value or enter any value I want and it works but with Pinball Arcade anything higher or lower and It misses the key presses or records two presses. The only reason I bring this up is maybe your system being over clocked is interfering with your timing. Just a thought. Hey Frodus I really need to see your files, so I know how you have things setup and where problems might be coming from. Jeff / Time299

    Hey MPad Yea, your timing issue is very weird and so is the issue with Full-screen I have NulePA running Steam and non Steam versions of Pinball Arcade on four different PC and laptops now and none of them are set to run in windowed mode they are all set to Full Screen and work flawless every time. From what I can tell you are the only one that has to run it that way. Would you mind doing a TeamViewer session some time, so I can poke around and see what the issue is. With a SSD your timing should be more like StartDelay = 2000 ScreenDelay = 600 MovementDelay = 10 If you were running in full screen mode you StartDelay would most likely increase a bit, because it takes windows a little longer to setup the full screen game mode and then rotate it vs windowed mode. Let me know if that is something you are interested in. BTW: Thanks for pointing out the Media Pack Issue I am working on correcting "High-Speed, Star Trek TNG, and Twilight Zone" play field videos and all new Older LED table DMD Videos instead of still shots now. Thanks, Jeff / Time299

    Hey Noiseprisoner Can you share you timings so other people can see what worked for you? Thanks, Jeff / Time299

    Hey all I have put some work into making it really easy to setup your tables. Below are sets of XML files you can download and save into your C:\PinballX\Databases\Pinball Arcade\Pinball Arcade.xml location and matching "PinballTables = " values you can copy and paste directly into your NukePA.ini file. Also if you are using the NukePA Media Pack everything matches up. Note to anyone that is using the NukePA Media Pack you should rename all the images for "Theater of Magic" to "Theatre of Magic" Some web browsers want to open XML files instead of downloading them, so to get around that just right click on the link and select "Save As" or "Save Target as" then pick the folder "C:\PinballX\Databases\Pinball Arcade\" and then rename the file "Pinball Arcade.XML" Single Seasons Season 1 Download matching XML Season 2 Download matching XML Season 3 Download matching XML Season 4 Download matching XML Multiple Seasons Seasons 1-2 Download matching XML Seasons 1-3 Download matching XML Seasons 1-4 Download matching XML I have also added this information to the NukePA Documentation Enjoy, Jeff / Time299

    MPad I just watched your video After you change the rotate to 270 in your NukePA try re running your config tool Rotate your screen and then run your Pinball Arcade "PBAConfig" program to lock in your screen settings in Pinball Arcade then rotate your screen back to normal and then NukePA will handle the screen rotation. I get that same error if they are out of sync.
  14. time299
    Hey MPad Dont know if this is related but your Pinballx file says rotate=270 and you have NukePA set to rotate=90 those should be the same.
  15. time299
    Mpad: can you post your files after the latest update?
  16. time299
    Ok guys Download NukePA Ver 1.2 from the site and try again. Rotate has been corrected and a new variable as been added to the NukePA.ini to address the default starting positions Farsight Studios introduced in this latest update version 1.33.8. StartsOn = MyTables Set to "PreviousSeasons" or "MyTables" depending on what menus option is auto selected in your version of Pinball Arcade. Jeff / Time299

    Hey All The Support / Documentation page is now active. I hope that helps clear up allot of the confusion. but like I said in the last post, I need to issue a fix for the Steam version before anyone will have any success. http://www.nukelauncher.com/item.asp?iid=33 Thanks, Jeff / Time299
  18. time299
    Ok thanks So over the last month while I was finalizing the media pack and fighting with my PC over the rotation issues I was testing with my offline version of Pinball Arcade. Meanwhile the Steam version changed the default starting location, so now I need to go back and make NukePA work one way for all of the offline versions and a different way for the current Steam version. Arghhhh not what I wanted for this release. Will work out a fix ASAP. Jeff / Time299

    Hey All I have a quick question for all of you using the Steam version only. If you open Pinball Arcade from the Steam Interface not NukePA in portrait mode what is selected/glowing on the main menu. Is it "Previous Seasons" or "My Tables" or something else? Mine is now different all of the sudden.
  20. time299
    Hey MPad Can you post your PinballX.ini and NukePA.ini? Also can you send me a Screenshot or Picture of what you were talking about with regards to the older games LED. I am confused.
  21. time299
    Ruebsy: Yes it woks with both Steam and non Steam versions. Just like my original NukeLauncher for Pinball FX2 this one works with Steam version and non steam version. Just put your NukePA.exe and NukePA.ini in the same folder as the Pinball Arcade.exe and NukePA will see that it is not the steam version and Launch it by the command "Pinball Arcade.exe" insted of the Steam "Steam.exe -applaunch 238260"

    ANDYCO: Q "how to u get rid of the kick start advert for adams family at start" A: If you are running the steam version you should just get this message once and then when you dismiss it it should not come back. Try opening Pinball Arcade from inside of Steam and then dismiss the message load a table and then exit and see if that clears it up. If you are running a hacked version then it may be baked into that copy and you may be stuck with it. But I'm just guessing. Mine only came up one time and never again but I am running the official Steam version. Mpad: Q "hey Jeff, thought you wanted to take some days off" A Yea, we both cough the flu from our visiting family, so Chemo and MRI and Blood test and Neural Ontology apt are delayed until we are both over it. I am almost all better now, but she is having a much harder time fighting it off with her week immune system. So I have been trying to help here as much as possible.
  23. time299
    ANDYCO: If "it only selects (Attack From Mars) all the time" then you may want to adjust your timing, try changing the StartDelay = 15000 to give you PC more time before keystrokes are started. MPad: The rotation is done by NukePA at start up by sending the following keystrokes. If you have Rotate set to 0 then NukePA sends Nothing If you have Rotate set to 90 then NukePA sends Ctrl+Alt+Left If you have Rotate set to 180 then NukePA sends Ctrl+Alt+Down If you have Rotate set to 270 then NukePA sends Ctrl+Alt+Right OK everyone, It's time to start posting your INI files, so we can start comparing notes. I need to see your PinballX.ini and your NukePA.ini files please post them as attachments not as text on the forum. Also tell me what tables you own I.E. Season1,2,3 or All
  24. time299
    When you try from a command line are you running the command line as administrator? Are you guys passing the table name in Quotes? Command Line Example: It sounds like you guys are not putting in the quotes around the [TABLEFILE] variable, see below this is how your PinballX.ini should look. PinballX Example: [System_2]Name=Pinball ArcadeEnabled=TrueWorkingPath=C:\Program Files (x86)\SteamTablePath=Executable=NukePA.exeParameters="[TABLEFILE]"SystemType=0LaunchBeforeEnabled=False

    Hey All I am starting to write some documentation and will post it as I progress. For now I have just added links to several Pinball Arcade XML files. So if you own season 1- 2 or season 1-2-3 you can just download that XML and not have to modify the one that comes with NukePA with all tables in it. http://www.nukelauncher.com/item.asp?iid=33
