Currently I have 3 XMLs in my Future Pinball folder. One is called Future Pinball.xml, the 2nd is Future Pinball ULTIMATE and the 3rd is Future Pinball ZED. When I select the ULTIMATE or the ZED I can see all my tables listed for those 2 XMLs. When I select ALL TABLES it then only shows me the tables from Future Pinball. Is this by design or am I overlooking something? I know if I create separate folders outside of Future Pinball then it will list them all but I would have thought that multiple XMLs within the same folder would show all tables when you select ALL TABLES. Am I wrong?

I didn´t work with groups yet, but I think that PinballX uses the Future Pinball.xml when you select all tables.

Try creating another xml called "Future Pinball Originals.xml" (or something) and add all your FP tables to Future Pinball.xml.

Maybe I am talking rubbish, but it is worth a try ;-)

Go into the \PinballX\Databases\Groups folder and create a Future Pinball.xml file that contains these lines making sure to match the names of your xml files in the \Databases\Future Pinball folder (I have assumed below what yours must look like in this example):

<group name="FP COMPLETE"> <<<<<<< This is what appears on the menu - you decide what to say so it fits properly on your display
<database>Future Pinball\Future Pinball.xml</database>

<database>Future Pinball\Future Pinball ZED.xml</database>

<database>Future Pinball\Future Pinball ULTIMATE.xml</database>
</group>

Unfortunately the "ALL" selection on the built in menu is not really all, but only what you have placed in \Databases\Future Pinball\Future Pinball.xml. If you really wanted the built in "ALL" to show all the tables, this is quite a pain in that you would really have to put all the ZED and ULTIMATE games in here as well as maintaining separate xml files for ZED and ULTIMATE as well. For me, I would rather remember that the built in "ALL" is not really all except for the one I create in the "Groups" folder that points to all three of them.
