[RESOLVED] Zen Studios Mars launching Bally Mars Attacks

[spamola]

I'm in the process of getting my FX3 tables added, and have found an odd issue. When I add Mars, (Zen Studios table), both Game Manager and PBX launch Bally Attack From Mars, rather that the correct table. I do own both tables in FX3. 

I've also tried deleting the "Mars" entry, and readding it both with game manager and DB Manager, specifying Mars for the table name, (Mars.pxp is the filename for the table), but it always launches Attack from Mars, (filename BALLY_Attack_from_Mars.pxp).

The log shows this command when I run Mars:

07:58:44.79  8/24/2020:  C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steam.exe -applaunch 442120 "-table_Mars"

I've ran this from the command line and confirmed that it also launches Attack from Mars, and not Mars.

I've attached my log, and ini, let me know if more files/info is needed.

This is a know issue.  Best way is to rename mars to _mars. And launch that table.

It is a known issue by ZEN, but they wont fix it

I renamed the file to _Mars.pxp, deleted and re-added using game manager, (Game entry is _Mars), and it's still launching AFM instead of Mars. New log attached.

Are there steps I'm missing?

I'm sorry. Age is playing a part. 

Try renaming mars to mars_.vpx

Not at my cabinet, but looking in my xml backup:
