Lancer1977 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 So I copied my settings from FX2 for the most part and updated the applaunch number to 442120. At this point I can get the app to launch but no game is selected or launched. Another minor issue is a few tables had their filenames changed slightly such as STARWARS_Episode_7 is now STARWARS_Episode7, but 4-6 are the same as they were... I got cabinet mode going on FX3 as well. [PinballFX3] Enabled=True WorkingPath=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam Executable=Steam.exe Parameters=-applaunch 442120 "[TABLEFILE]" Process=Pinball FX3.exe LaunchBeforeEnabled=True LaunchBeforeWorkingPath=C:\EmuPin LaunchBeforeExecutable=PinballFX.bat LaunchBeforeWaitForExit=False TablePath=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pinball FX3\data\steam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 I assume by the ? in the title it is not working. Can you please attach copies of you pinballx.ini, log.txt, and Pinball FX3.xml files for Tom to review? Do not copy & paste them! thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadman Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 not happy that they changed the names of some of the tables. Have to go back and update backglass, wheel, and dmd names again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancer1977 Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 Ok I got a response from the support at FX. looks like command line now must add -table_ in front of the filename so the parameter should read Parameters=-applaunch 442120 -table_"[TABLEFILE]" but yeah more and more I'm finding the table names have changed and I don't know what they all point to. Haven't figured out First Order yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captaincroutons Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 If you go into the main steam folder and then into the pinball fx3 folder, open data then steam, it shows you a list of all table names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulltilt Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 These are the settings I am using and most of the tables load fine from PinballX ..there are a few I found that go to the main menu. Still checking to see if there are any others. Plants vs Zombies MS. Splosian Man South Park Butters Pinball South Park Super Sweet Pinball The 8 Football tables also only go to the main menu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulltilt Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Still trying but everything else seems to work in PBFX3. Also ..it seems all tables I try and load up from PBFX2 now only go to the main menu. I have read that the command line loading of tables was removed for some reason in PBFX2 ..that true, and why if it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlr53 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Thanks Fulltilt. It was a path problem. I had: 9/29/2017: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pinball FX3\steam.exe -applaunch 442120 "-table_"MARVEL_Ant-Man" I must have changed it jacking the settings around. I re-pointed to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam and I can launch tables now. Out to the garage to rebuild my cab top..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PcTeknic Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I've seen a small bug. When doing the direct opening of the table from PinballX, the backglass goes black, we can leave the table to the main menu, then Pinball FX3 load the backglass and run it again.

What are your table settings in your pinball fx3.xml file for the backglass? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gthax Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I have my settings for FX3 exactly as shown in Fulltilts post. When I launch a table in PinballX it launches the Pinball FX3 program and I have to go through the menus to start a table. Any ideas?? Thanks.

PcTeknic Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Tomorrow I can attach it, although they are the same as for FX2 with the exception of the app and the command line. Ihave also seen that the tables do not work well, if you pull them from PinballX there is as a pixel strip delayed in the middle of the playfield and the game is not 100% fluid. However, if you play the game directly, without PinballX, it's perfect. I do not know what the translator will have put, if there is something strange in what I have put, tell me and I try to write it in another way.

PcTeknic Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I have put the version 2.41 and after the configuration, I have edited the PinballX.ini to put -1 in "WaitFor" for FX2 and FX3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Speirs Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Hi, I just wanted to make it clear the in built support is designed to work with "Cabinet" support from Zen. So if no tables are selecting you likely do not have "cabinet" mode enabled. See here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Speirs Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Might be a silly question but do you have cabinet mode enabled in FX3 too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, all settings from FX2 carried over to FX3. It plays in cabinet mode when I start the game. I just have to go through the menus to start a table through PinballX.

Tom Speirs Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Your missing a space: -applaunch 442120-"table_STARWARS_Rebels" Should be: -applaunch 442120 -"table_STARWARS_Rebels" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
