Would Pinball X support this?

I may have asked this a long time ago. Does Pinball X support Stella or LEDHead? I have no idea what the parameters would be though. Here's a link to LEDHead if no one's seen it. It's the old handheld 9v games. It'll work with a joystick and buttons.

I tried lol. I'm not good with command lines, but I tried several I saw searching various threads. I've gotten it to open in Pinball X to a blank screen, in the case of this log it crashed back to the menu. Is a Gamex command line, the same as a Pinball X command line when it comes to setting things up in the wizard?

20:09:35.30  5/21/2020:  V:\Stella\V:\Stella\Stella.exe stella.exe -fullscreen 1 "[ROMPath]\[RomFile]"

that's really not valid you have 2 times your main root folder specified somewhere also not sure if the tompath romfile entries are correct they might need all uppercase although i'm not sure if the log mentions those expanded or not. did you add them to parameters ?

Are rompath and romfile valid in pinballx, or gameex only?

Anyway, i'd try chnaging ini to something like;

WorkingPath=V:\Stella
TablePath=V:\Stella\Roms
Executable=Stella.exe
Parameters=stella.exe -fullscreen 1 "[TABLEPATH]\[TABLEFILE]"

Parameters=-fullscreen 1 "[TABLEPATH]\[TABLEFILE]"

I had it that way initially. I changed it back to Stella.exe and it still crashes back.

 

Last night I had it seem to open to a black screen. I don't remember what I used, but it didn't have focus as the folders I had open were on top of the black screen. That was the closest I came.

Sorry for the holdup. I'm not really that well versed in command prompts.

 

I tried adding [ ] to the tablepath, and it couldn't find it. I do not have spaces in my current path. Would it be easier to just have PBX open the .exe and I pick the game?

According to your log :

V:\Stella\Stella.exe V:\Stella\Roms\Adventures of TRON (USA)

I should put quotes on them. Does stella needs a extension too ? Maybe you need to add this ?

See next post that has a simular is with Nestopia:

Noticed i had an error in my previous reply (sorry, that may have wasted your time)

Based on your last log most settings for the system entries are probably now correct except the parameters line. Please amend parameters to;

-fullscreen 1 "[TABLEPATH]\[TABLEFILE]"

and if that doesn't work try adding a file extension as Mike suggests (.bin maybe?, i don't know), so try e.g.

-fullscreen 1 "[TABLEPATH]\[TABLEFILE].bin"

If neither of those work then please post new log and ini files..
