How to change the Loading screen when a table starts

[Stavros75]

Hello to all. I am new to pinball emulation and i have some questions. 

I am using an old laptop with windows 10 and the Retrobat frontend to play some games. I saw that it has vpinball as the emulator so i donwloaded some tables. All playing just fine (with few exceptions) and have a lot of fun. 

I want to know if there is a way to change the loading progress bar from vpinball.exe when i start a table to an image for example that says LOADING or something else. I think it would be more beutifull than have the programm itself pops up and informing me, loading textures now loading assets etc.

I know where to drop the videos, where to drop the music files the logo wheels, almost everything. But not this. 

Thank you in advance if someone answers.

To use loading videos or liading images, you need to use pinballx as a front end and not retrobat (maybe it works with retrobat as well, but this is the PinballX forum )

You can check the pinballx documentation how you enable loading images or videos and the location of it.

Documentation is included in the latest version of pinballx or can be downloaded at the following location

See the plugin from scutters for extra informaton to de-randomize the media as well

Hope this now make sense to you

Yes i know but Retrobat uses pinballX as the emulator. So i thought maybe this forum could help. Or i help others maybe. 

Thank you for the links my friend, i will read them and i hope i can found what i am looking for. You know, i have everything, images videos music, all, and i just need this to make my retrogaming almost perfect.

Almost perfect??? 

With scutters his plugin and loading videos, you make pinballx perfect .
