Censored Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Hello community! Is there a way to show the backglass Images without grill for my 3screen setup in PinballX? If not - is there a source where to get them? Many thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umpa Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 If you use the b2s back glasses and hide the grill on them you can select use b2s back glasses in pinball X settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tthurman Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 You may want to give Scoby1's thread a read for further details. gtxjoe has a tutorial on DirectB2S linked in this thread that may help as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Censored Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 I know using dB2s would solve the issue, but it takes about 5 seconds to load the db2s Backglasses which does not look good when scrolling through the table-list - Images would load much faster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umpa Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I don't have that problem. Maybe it's my computer specs. I have an i5. I think I might have a file with a crap load of backglass with the grills removed. I will check in abit and let you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Censored Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 I think thats because I start the B2S in Exe mode for better Performance.... Well.... At least once it has loaded .... Edit: As a Workaround I changed the Resolution of the Backglass to 1920x1440 in PinballX Settings so the Grill is not visible anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While playing a table from PinballX you can press "o" to save a screenshot of the playfield and you can press "u" to save a screenshot of the backglass. Then you need to cut/paste these screen grabs from your screen grab media folders and put them in the correct media folders (i.e. backglass images). Hope this helps.

Censored Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 Hmmm... O and U does Nothing - do I have to activate this somewhere? Gesendet von meinem SM-G903F mit Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imagamejunky Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 If you press U while playing a table that was loaded from the pinballx frontend then you should see a screenshot of your backglass in the "screen grabs backglass" folder in the media folder for that pinball software (i.e. visual pinball x). Then you have to cut and paste it like I said before. On your next load of pinballx you should see this new backglass in the front end.

imagamejunky Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 It just occurred to me that these are the keys that are mapped in MY pinballx.ini. Yours may be different. Sorry for the confusion. junky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Censored Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) Thanks - screenshots taken But now there is another Problem: There are some Tables with no Playfield Picture. So I took the screenshots (with "s" ;-) ) and imported them in the Game Manager, but PinballX does not show them?! PinballX does not show the "no Picture" Picture - PX shows the Picture of the last table shown instead. Also strange is, that in Game Manager the Playfield is not marked as missing... Copying the Screenshots by hand in the correct media folder also does not work. Edit: Problem Solved! For those Tables I imported a playfield video before (which my PBX setup obvously cant play). I deleted the Videos and now everything works fine! Edited March 24, 2016 by Censored Problem Solved! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
