[RESOLVED] Cactus Canyon Continued P-ROC - Focus Issue


RustyCardores

Recommended Posts

Hi guys, it's not a big issue bit it is an annoyance that I would like to resolve.

I recently upgraded my video card and had a few issues with screen positioning.  Re-ordering my video cables solved that issue and PBX runs perfectly across 3 screens with over 150 tables.... BUT (there is always a but lol), one table 'Cactus Canyon Continued (PROC)' starts with the play field on screen, but not in focus.

A single mouse click on screen brings the PF back into focus and it then plays fine.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. 

Cheers, Rusty.

What also happens is that the backglass window doesn't close.

As for multiballs: I get 2 multiballs but only 1 during last call.

Also, I'm running in windowed.

I don't see anything wrong. Changing hardware can have unintended consequences. Some suggestions:

Try setting the SystemType to Visual Pinball

Try the newest VP beta

http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?showtopic=35311&page=1

Try it both windowed and true full screen

Maybe the timings for one of these options will work without having to force focus on the VP Player by coding it.

Thanks Carny, I'm in the middle of a "24h away from pinball family day" (suffering withdrawal symptoms btw) so will have a look when I'm back.  I think it is just a timing issue as you mentioned, so I might try one more shuffle of the video leads (that fixed some other issues before) 

btw I did run this in the latest VP along with many other tables, but it started suffering the "no eject mine issue" that's going around.  I found this version of VP solved that, so I put it in it's own system just for that version.

Great. I had the mine issue. Solved it by not downsampling and just using native 1920x1080 resolution. Might try playing with AA or details settings.

Multiball is the real issue. It should be at least 3 balls. Something to do with the trough code. It doesn't look like anyone is going to try to fix it.

I have now tried VPX 10.2 2800 and same result.

I swapped my video cables and same result.

I tried Full screen and that worked, but I ended up with other issues (shutdown problems mainly)

Interestingly, if I leave it as is, I can open the table with no focus - close & reopen - and I then have focus.  From that point it works each time I go back to the table, provided that I have not rebooted between visits.  So that might be the simplest solution for me, not the best solution I admit, but a quick close & reopen is not all that taxing on my bwain ;)

I've now switched to running True Fullscreen full time (works perfectly for all other tables) and I still have focus issues for CCC. Basically it starts with a black playfield and I have to AltTab to regain focus.

Tried both as Custom and VP in systems...
* Custom: displays Loading Screen
* VP: displays black

Alt/Tab works for both.

Will keep working on it.

ps: Scripting ahk's to work around this is beyond me I'm afraid :(
