Bought it a few months back. More of a platformer with pinball feel. Fun game, not cabinet appropriate really in my case

Malzbie's Pinball Collection - On my cabinet
GAH1068 replied to joyrider3774's topic in User Projects
Just checked out thetables. Here is my DMDExt settings to get the DMD going on my PinDMDV3. Modify as needed for your real or virtual DMD. dmdext mirror --source=screen --position 382 10 318 130 --destination=pindmdv3 -p COM3 --fps=60 --no-virtual -
I can post mine next time I sit down at computer. Just two simple ahk scripts and system configured in PBX

I was going to write something in C# or VB.NET but never got around to it. I was too lazy to get Visual Studio installed again. Lol. I swore off software development after doing it for 20+ years. Great little utility, works perfect!
-
I looked for an app like this a while back and didn't find anything I liked. This one works like a champ. Added line in my AHK at startup to view and then kill the app when exit from PBX. Thank you!!

I was using the same image for my backglass already as well. I will take a look at Image_Monitor. That should do the trick. Thanks! You should be able to use DMDExt -mirror command. Just set it up to use a virtual DMD and you should be good to go without using the utility. dmdext.exe mirror --source=screen --position 110 45 400 90

I have pinball wicked as well on my cabinet. I used to be able to display the backglass on screen but since once I rotate the screen via AHK the backglass screens goes black and does not display again until I exit back to PinballX. Haven't been able to find a work around for that yet. I do have Hide Backglass box unchecked in my settings so it should leave the PBX one up. If I don't rotate the screen on launch the backglass image stays. Wish Formslingers would add a rotate option in the game itself. If you havd a DMD you can get that part working as well if you don't already. I was able to get this to work when I first got the game earlier in the year pretty easily. I am running 1920X1080 so your coordinates might need to be updated but this works awesome on my PinDMDV3. dmdext.exe mirror --source=screen --position 110 45 400 90 --destination=pindmdv3 -p COM3 --fps=60 --no-virtual

I would have to see the what keypressss occur after sending mouse click. Enter needs to be pressed to select the table but after that you might be able to remove the next enter press. Should be easy for you to modify and test
-
Not sure what you are asking. Do you mean not pass a mouse click on the logo screen? If that is your question then sending a enter key press also worked although not 100% reliably like the mouse. It might be better now since I am forcing focus to zaccaria but I haven't retested.

Zaccaria Pinball launcher and media generator
GAH1068 replied to Carny_Priest's topic in PinballX Media Projects
@BrandonLaw - Just downloaded your new wheels. They look great. Thank you! -
Glad you got things sorted out
-
Updating first post with latest Zaccaria.XML PinballX database file. This includes the Pool Champion 2018 Remake that was just recently released. Enjoy!
-
There is a keyboard key that can rotate the screen in PinballX. On my cab it is mapped to the letter R which I believe is the default. Go into your pbx settings and confirm but should just need to press rotate again to fix
-
You will need to change one line that moves the mouse over the Zaccaria image on startup and then sends a mouse click otherwise it shuld be fine.
-
That means the AHK script is not finding your PinballX Database file. The last error means it tried to read your database file to get the table type and it couldn't . I am attaching my working PinballX database file. Make sure your system name in PinballX is Zaccaria and copy this attached file to the PinballX\Database\Zaccaria directory. If you want to rename it something diferent that is fine you will just need to rename the xml file to match. Also there is a single line in the script that you have to make sure matchs the patch and filename of your PinballX Zaccaria Database. Update the path to match your system. FileRead, xmldata, C:\Pinball\PinballX\Databases\Zaccaria\Zaccaria.xml ;change to your zaccaria PBX database From there once you start PinballX you should see all the Zaccaria tables listed and you should be able to launch them. Zaccaria.xml

The launch script in the first post is written in a enhanced scripting language called AutoHotKey. It is an all purpose scripting language that many utilities in the Virtual pinball world are using to automate things. Think like a .bat file but a ton more powerful. Using AutoHotKey you can take an script and compile it into a running executable. This executable is used many times in the Launch Before/Launch after scripts in PinballX for example. The LaunchZaccaria script I worked was written entirely in AHK. From there you compile it (right click the AHK script and select compile) and an executable is generated.

Busy time of the year so I was just giving you a hard time. Absolutely, please share. I am sure they will look great and will be better than the default Zaccaria image I have for tables where there isn't a wheel. I have been a little lack on my cabinet as well. Played a little bit but been busy with work and the house. I won a Ninendo Switch at my company party so I have been playing around with that. Picked up a Flip Grip so FX3 is rocking on it.
-
@BrandonLaw - You can pay me back with some great Zaccaria Wheel images. Lol : )
-
He has. I think the file was DMDExt-153.exe or something like that.

My script for table launch is already configured for Steam. Nothing needs to be changed in steam. This is all just PinballX configuration. There is a Zacarria.XML file earlier in this thread that has all the tables (except maybe the last one or two released) that you can download and use. You need to go into PinballX settings. Go to Other systems and make sure you have one setup for Zacarria and confirm it is enable.d It doesn't matter what number. I would name it Zaccaria as well otherwhile the XML file you download will need to be named the same. Just copy the .XML file to the PinballX\Database\Zaccaria (or whatever you call it) directory and it will have all the games added to PinballX. You will still need to add Playfield, Backglass or Wheel images but the games should be launchable. Make sure to download AutoHotKey (free) so you can compile your script files.

Yes it is a known issue. There is a Beta Build on the DMDExt GitHum site if you scroll down through the repllies. I have a ticket open and he posted a version to test. This does get the new FX3 tables working without using the --fx3-legacy command. It seems to have some other issues like making all DMD's orange as well as not always displaying the DMD at table launch on startup. Freezy must be still working on it. https://github.com/freezy/dmd-extensions/issues/153
-
I don't see a reason why that won't work. All you should need is to change that line in your script and compile. Nothing else should need changed.
-
Yepz Saw on Facebook as well. My script does it without changing the launch properties in stream. Basically doing exact same thing
-
See upate in first post regarding automatic playfield rotation (optional) on startup
-
Not really anything that can be done. Their cabinet support is fairly limited so the quality of the backglass are low and aren't full screen.
