pinballx to launch fruit machines

[pinallthetime]

Is there a way to get Pinball x to launch fruit machine using MFME?

 

I am using the setup wizard, others systems and think the problem has to do with the parameters line.   I have tried a a bunch of things, [TABLEPATH], /play -"[TABLEPATH]\[TABLEFILE]", and many other ones but get an error not a value integer value.  The extension for the fruit machine is .gam.  

 

any help??

Is this a type of retro arcade game? You would use Gameex.

MFME- multi fruit machine emulator.  it plays slot machine type games.  I was hoping to add it to my visual pinball machine set up.

You may want to attach your mfme.xml, pinballx.ini and log.txt files for others to review.

Please attach the files in your reply. It is hard to read on a smart phone when you have to scroll a long copy and paste. Also we will often download the files for testing.

[pinallthetime]

log.txt

slots.xml

PinballX.ini

[pinallthetime]

folder and file look like this

the .gam file is the one that needs to be launched

[pinallthetime]

Any suggestions?  Will be working on my project tomorrow night and this weekend

[Draco1962]

You might not get an answer right away as this may not have many users attempting what you are with this type system.

[Draco1962]

Try this:

[System_2]
Name=slots
Enabled=True
SystemType=0
WorkingPath=E:\Users\main frame\Documents\slots\mfme v5.1\MFME v5.1 (Win7)
TablePath=E:\Users\main frame\Documents\slots\mfme v5.1\MFME v5.1 (Win7)\Games
Executable=MFME.exe
Parameters=/play -"[TABLEFILE]"

Alternatively since I am not sure if the /play - is necessary or not

Parameters="[TABLEFILE]"

[pinallthetime]

no luck (note: I did change the drive my program was on)

log.txt

slots.xml

PinballX.ini

 

thanks for trying

Have you seen this thread?

There might be some clues for a proper command line.
