coreduo0099 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Hello, could use a little help... Details: 4 screen setup, feedback, 2 ledwiz, one for focefeedback one for non addressable leds Using 3rd party add-ons dmdext, doflinx, PUplayer PinballX plugin is not working, vpx, fx2, fx3, FP all work with DOF What Version of PBX are you on? 2.86 (happened with 2.84) So a few days ago it seems my DOF stopped working. I can't attribute it to anything in particular unfortunately. DOF com is registered. I run as adming ,is says it is registered. Then I validated it in regedit, but the plugin manager says "Error! DirectOutput framework not found. Make sure the DOF com object is registered." Plugin log says: 18.05.11 02:10:53.280 Initializing DOF 18.05.11 02:10:53.296 Init failed: Could not create a instance of the DirectOutput framework. Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {A23BFDBC-9A8A-46C0-8672-60F23D54FFB6} failed due to the following error: 80040154. 18.05.11 02:10:53.296 .

coreduo0099 Posted May 11, 2018 Author Share Posted May 11, 2018 Hmm.. I think I figured out part of it.. I originally installed to "E:\Emulator\Pinball emu\PinballX" I had created a shortcut From E:\Emulator\Pinball emu\ to E:\Emulator\Pinball_emu\ If I launch E:\Emulator\Pinball emu\PinballX\PinballX.exe DOF fails (and the plugin tester fails) If I launch E:\Emulator\Pinball_emu\PinballX\PinballX.exe DOF works (but the plugin tester still fails) I re-installed to E:\Emulator\Pinball_emu\PinballX\PinballX.exe and the behavior is the same..

Draco1962 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 PinballX is best installed to c:\PinballX . I am not certain of it would help in your situation. But it has remedied others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coreduo0099 Posted May 15, 2018 Author Share Posted May 15, 2018 Figured it out.. And this is bizarre. If I launch PinballX from a shortcut, it works fine (regardless of install path). If I launch PinballX.exe directly DOF does not work and plugin fails to initialize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Is the shortcut set to run as administrator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bad, I checked again and it is a shortcut to a .bat file which contains the following: start "" pinballx.exe PinballX.exe is not set to administrator. (but I tried it both ways).. just kind of bizzarre... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
