Good to see some new features being added. Amazing what a little front end competition will do for development Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ran against pinballx and dof directories. Everything executing as admin. Edit: reran. Recreated pinballx dof config. Working . Thanks for the assistance. Now to disable solenoids for pinballx

I’ve checked the folders manually but haven’t run the powershell command. I’ll google for it and have a look. Dof and pinballx exes are as admin

Yep. Had r3 with the problem and unified keeps the problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes

screen of dof and dof config folders

updated the dof files to contain references to 30 and 40 ini files. no change. DOF still functions correctly through visual pinball, not through pinballx. if launching vp through pinballx with the DOF plugin enabled, DOF does not launch correctly for vpp. PinballX log below 19:47:04.5 26/03/2018: PinballX - Version 2.50 19:47:04.6 26/03/2018: Windows 10 Pro N 64-bit (7.9GB) 19:47:04.6 26/03/2018: Loading Settings 19:47:04.6 26/03/2018: Initialize Component 19:47:04.7 26/03/2018: Initialize Display 19:47:05.9 26/03/2018: Loading PlugIns 19:47:05.10 26/03/2018: Loaded Plugin:"DirectOutput PinballX Plugin" Version 1 By Swisslizard 19:47:09.7 26/03/2018: PlugIn Did not initialize.

Any other insight or ideas?

It has a 40 and a 30. The 40 is due to me using a sain smart device for my solenoids as per the doco. All work in vp, it’s just pinballx that has the issue Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

30 and 40 files for dof are correct. The 40 is for addressable leds , 30 covers solenoids etc. different ini files for different devices. https://directoutput.github.io/DirectOutput/inifiles.html
