png as backglass (static backglass)

[gogol]

Hi ,

first of all, thank you for this awesome front end.

some rare tables of mine don't have any animated backglass, and i like to display the

backglass image on my backglass screen when i play (it s better than nothing)

how can i do that with pinballX ?

thank you !

I know what you mean, but I don't think this can be done currently in PBX. I have the same issue with FX2 tables, all I have is a black BG when playing the table. Maybe post this as a feature request/enhancement.

inside the game manager, simply uncheck "hide backglass" for the concerned tables. PinballX will keep the BG of the front end (if available in the BG media directory) while playing the table.

works with pbfx2, VP and FP

cheers

Folks,

Can you confirm that this works? I set the hidebackglass to FALSE under the XML file, and have an identical .png under the Backglass Images dir but I still get a black BG when playing the table. (Note: When at the table selection wheel, all my tables have a table/BG/wheel image) This would be really cool if I can get it working because all my FX2 tables have no BG when playing.

Apologies to the OP, learn something new everyday!!! I always thought those options were like the directb2s options.
