show all versions of all tables upon launch

[8trek]

Using a couple different versions of vpball so i have the main visual pinball enabled as well as a "other system" for my other versions. How does one go about setting up pballx to show all tables of all versions upon startup rather than defaulting to just the main visual pinball emulator? Thanks.

I would recommend going through the guides in the PinballX Documentation thread for starters. Zeenon put a lot of effort into creating this for us to address the questions you are asking. If you run into a snag, be prepared to provide copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files so the team can have a look. Thanks!

i downloaded the pdf but did not see what i was looking for upon first and second attempt.... if you are saying you know the answer to my question is in there then i will look a third time... if you are saying you don't know but "think" it should be in there then my guess is it's not in there. Again, all i'm asking is when i start PinballX i want it to default to all games and their respective tables. I've managed to create a group and know how to navigate to it but just not seeing how to have it load this group upon startup. Regardless, i will keep digging just thought i would save myself the time by posting in this forum.

thanks.

Yeah, its going to take some trial and error. I referred you to that document so you can establish a baseline. I only run one system so I won't be able to help you with answering your question, but if you provide the requested files as a start, there is a great bit of talent and help from others in the community in getting to your goal.

The system you're trying to view is enabled in config?

[system_1]

Enabled=True

or table entries can be disabled in xml.

<enabled>true</enabled>

yes, it's enabled. after reviewing other threads about game manager removing mods to the xml i've opted to stay away from directly editing the xml.

so... still no idea how to show all games among all systems upon startup.

thanks.

You may want to go ahead and provide your pinballx.ini and log.txt files so that we can see how you are presently setup and perhaps give you some pointers. Thanks!

after a little more effort all tables from both versions show up together upon startup... at the moment i'm not sure why but will keep my fingers crossed this behavior will continue. thank you for the replies.
