[RESOLVED] having issues with the plunger in the tables for visual pinball

[RIJOSROBERTO]

when i try to play a table on visual pinball emulator the plunger goes down when i press the start button but it never comes back up no hits the ball

update resolved thank you so much guys ,

[Draco1962]

Does the same thing happen outside of PinballX? Please test that and let us know. Thanks.

[RIJOSROBERTO]

yes

iam currently testing it on the visual p

emulator

when i try to play them in px they dont want to run

[Draco1962]

Are you saying that the plunger issue only happens within PinballX or both within PinballX and when running the emulator alone outside of PinballX?

Also, please provide copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files when reporting an issue. We shouldn't have to ask every time and it really makes trying to help take longer than it has to.

Do you play on a keyboard or do you have a cabinet?

In Visual Pinball

Preferences -> Keys, what is your Launch button mapped to?

[RIJOSROBERTO]

keyboard but i fixed it i had to disable the plunger plus remap the keys i had enter as start and as for the plunger now i have to figure out how to make all of them launch from px

[Draco1962]

Glad you got this sorted. Onto the next issue.
