Cant back out of individual systems to the main system menu.

[Curious Aardvark]

still in early stages of getting everything working properly. 

But my current problem is - hopefully - simple.

 

When I load pbx I get a menu showing the differnt emulator systems I've currently got: fx3, zacharias, vps, williams arcade

I can select any of these and go into the menu showing the relevant tables (although I have a question on that as well).

If I launch a table and waht to go back to the table selection menu, 'Q' backs me out of the table and back to the system table menu.

That all works fine.

 

What I cannot do is to back out of the individual system and get back to the menu showing all the systems.

I have to quit pbx entirely (esc, exit) and relaunch to get the systems menu back.

It seems to be a one time deal. Pick what system you want and bugger the rest thereafter.

 

I've been through all the settings and cannot find any other button than 'Q' and 'Q' does not back me out of a system and back to the system select menu.

 

Help !

 

My other question is even simpler but quite probably a lot more complex.

 

How do I show ONLY the tables I have actually bought/unlocked in fx3, zacharias and pinball arcade ?

At the moment I get shown all the possible tables - whether unlocked or not.

I only want to see tables I actually 'own/rent'

 

Is that possible ?

 

cheers

For the first question go into PinballX settings.exe, under General Setting set 'one click launch' to No.

When you select a table instead of immediately launching it you will now get a menu to Play the game or move down the list and select Systems to go back to the systems menu.

Not sure about number2, i don't use FX3 or the others but are you referring to in game menus or pinballx table entries? (table entries in the wheel can just be disabled)

From zenpinball, it is not possible to see what table you bought, so best way is add all tables (databasemanager has a nice feature to add tables) and you can disable or enable that table, so not visible in your frontend

Ah ha !

 

Yes you are spot on, I do have one click launch on :-)

makes sense, so thanks for that.

 

discovered the existence of the database manager program yesterday when I got the manual for that instead of the PBX manual - which doesn't seem to exist.

the PBX manual download only seems to give you the database manager manual.

 

I suppose both annoying and useful at one and the same time 

.but does leave me hanging as I wanted the backglass and DMD setup part of the manual :-(

 

But if I can use the database nanager to only show the tables I want.

that'll work :-)

cheers

Oeps .. maybe i uploaded the wrong one, but pbx manual is included in the latest version of pinballx. It is the documentation link within your pinballx  folder in your start menu
