I split this to the PinballX General subforum as your issue has nothing to do with the original thread for Zaccaria media.

Since the OP referenced Pinball FX and not Pinball FX3 your issue should be handled as a new thread and has been split from it accordingly.

You're welcome! Glad you got it sorted! Windows is a fickle beast.

Thanks! I should note that not included are background videos that I sourced for use within my custom emulators for specifically sorted Sims, RPGs, etc. that display when there is not a video for a specific game within.

I split this ftom the guide thread. Please attach copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files after the reported error condition in response to this thread if you wish to troubleshoot.

Appears to display much better now! Thank you!

Does not seem to have an impact since the title still shows.

FEATURE REQUEST: Official Skinning capability - to enable/disable elements from Menu screens in Arcade Edition. For some users, between Title display, publisher, logo animations, and video snaps, the menu pages appear inconsistent or cluttered. Being able to place or enable/disable elements, such as video or still snaps would be ideal. If nothing else, knowing where within the theme.ini or gameex.ini files one can add an entry to enable/disable these features would go a long way towards being able to skin further.

If you followed the steps I outlined to set the .exe to run as administrator, it should do that always. So set it under Windows Start to launch there.

Is it erroring again with all tables or just Twilight Zone? Can you attach new copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files after switching to fullscreen windowed and running Twilight Zone generating the error described?

I changed the theme to Default - Default and witnessed the same behaviours. Log attached. log.txt

It was 18.66 (right before you added the latest new features for the publisher logos and bezels. The second pic in the post demonstrates the same behaviour as "Last Played" with Atari logo showing mid-left and the video snap pushed top-left under the Title. I also noticed that the location of the wheel logo shifted from right to left (18.68-69?) when you go into a category from the main menu (slightly overlaps the video in the lower left corner, but acceptable vs. being partially obscured by the wheel menu. A longer video can be found here with the introduction to the new theme I am using probably has some As for the LEDBlinky note in the log, I am not running it at present so not sure if any issue as a result. An investigation for another day...

Game Informer, the longest running US gaming magazine, shuts down after 33 years. I wonder how much longer before GameStop follows?

Opus Technologia theme. This theme leverages background videos throughout to provide a pleasant yet futuristic vibe, especially when combined with the Pirulen font and "Tarcisio" styled wheel logos and spinball logos. Go to https://forums.gameex.com/forums/topic/28216-spinball-tarcisio-style-gameex-logo-files/#comment-217971 for details regarding new Tarcisio styled wheel and Spinball logos or go to FTP location for download on the GameEx FTP at /-GameEx-/Draco1962_Projects/Tarc-Style_Logos/Spinball within the various subfolders. To Use this theme: 1. Create Opus Technologia folder under GameEx Arcade Edition\THEMES\ 2. Unzip to \GameEx Arcade Edition\THEMES\Opus Technologia folder. 3. You will need to manually edit your gameex.ini file located within the \GameEx Arcade Edition\CONFIG\ folder. 4. Once you have the .ini open, hit CTRL+F and type Theme and change the line Theme=Default to Theme=Opus Technologia. 5. To use the Pirulen font, you will need to install the included prirulen.ttf file by "double-clicking" the file, then click Install. Enjoy! GameEx__All Games_60_60_ 2024-08-02 08-33-10.mp4

This is an excellent option but with one caveat if the behavior is the same as in GameEx. Within GameEx, whenever I have added different emulators to an emulator group, all of the games would show, but the individual emulator lists would disappear from the menu. Likely this is by design to keep the menu clean, but some may not like it wanting to have the separate emulator versions and the combined within a group.

Recent 18.6 changes adding Company Logo are forcing "Last Played" image to top of page right into the Title text: Same behaviour noted in Game Info page: Would be preferred to have the company logo appear right below Title text lines with game video below in these views. GameEx.inilog.txt

@Tom Speirs may need to address this one. I looked through the gameex.ini and log.txt files. Since CabControlFriendly=False and the fact that you have no other issues within your navigation, this may be some other change that I am not aware of. Are you able to record a brief clip of what you are seeing to better illustrate? I am away from my gaming PC and my controller is out of action (Tankstick) at the moment so unable to test for the behavior directly.

LTNS! Please attach copies of your gameex.ini and log.txt files to review. Thanks!

Split this from topic in Guides due to level of assistance and topic.

Why are we quoting a closed 5 yr old unrelated thread? Confuzzled. 😵‍💫

Thanks for answering the questions found here: It is rarely referenced, yet it speeds up triage to have some concise data of the setup and the files attached do help. I am not an expert but get lucky sometimes. This one is a head scratcher. Have you tried disabling plugins, see if the issue resolves, then reenable each of the plugins until the issue returns?

So are you saying that the issue is resolved when you have mouse hide set to "no" as suggested?

Please attach copies of your latest gameex.ini and log.txt files for review just in case. Thanks!
