hi jeff thanks for replying , This only happens when I click on the nukepa.exe byitself, It actually started working from pinballx last night, and tryed it again today and its just selecting attack from mars all the time. guess this is just a timing issue & im gonna try a few things there. Im running a legit steam version & only have the season 1 tables, just the nukepa error thats baffling me. Just tried from the command line ,it loaded pinball arcade straight up with no error , but didnt select table right as the timings out i think. heres my configs and the xml is the season 1 xml from your website. Many thanks in advance
