[RESOLVED] Menu issue since 1.98

[noiseprisoner]

Hi all,

I've been having an odd issue since I updated to 1.98. After scrolling through my PinballX menu for awhile, the wheel images become "uncentered" and skewed to the right. Occasionally, as I continue to scroll, it will sometimes even skip tables, like I'm pressing the button twice even though I'm not. If I exit PinballX and then restart it, the problem is resolved for awhile until I scroll through the tables for awhile again. It's happened on different groups and seems to be random, I can't really figure out a pattern to where it starts happening.

Here's a video that shows the issue...and then when I close/restart PinballX, it goes away. (Sorry for the crappy video)

Here's my log:

I was just scrolling through tables attempting to recreate this issue and PinballX crashed back to the desktop. I think it's the first time I've ever seen PinballX crash like that.

Here's the log:

Odd that the log file stops right at DirectX entries. Have you recently received or applied any graphics card updates to your system? If so, have you tried installing the drivers prior to the update to see if they remedy the issue?

[noiseprisoner]

Nope, haven't performed any updates in awhile now. The only thing I can think of that I've changed recently on this system is adding table audio for VP and PBFX2 titles to PinballX.

[Aubrel]

Same here on a new platform with all the latest (AMD) divers running on an up to date Windows7 (64), but didn't tried any previous version of Pinballx.

[Tom Speirs]

Hi, I think I did a silent update that fixed this. Could you please download and install again.

Thanks.

Tom

[noiseprisoner]

Thanks Tom, I should be able to get it installed tomorrow and play with it a bit.

[Aubrel]

Nice, I've just made a try and now the wheel woks always as expected : didn't managed to get that bug anymore

Thank you !

[noiseprisoner]

I played for awhile last night and didn't experience the problem, looks like it might be fixed! I'll test some more tonight. Thanks again Tom!

[RustyCardores]

I had the same issue and after stumbling on this thread today I did the update.

I've not been able to replicate the problem all day and the wheel even scrolls much smoother. So it looks like a winner to me Tom.
