Database path change

[uxb666]

Hi, I moved my vpinball apps and files on my C drive to a new D drive. Reinstalled Pinballx there. When pulling up game manger or database manager they are point to to the old xml locations. where do I go to correct paths. Settings tool I've updated paths there, but I don't see a path setting for the database files etc. Game Manger is point to the old C drive table location, where no games exists anymore,so get an empty list when trying to add games. Hoping someone can point me in the right direction

Here's one example. From Database Game Manger. FX2/FX3 games where moved to a new location on D. So need to update this path. Just not sure where the game mangers are pulling their paths from. 

clXMLfiles_SelectedIndexChanged    Table directory [C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Pinball FX3\data\steam] does not exist. Cannot check for new/deleted tables

Thanks

My assumption is you switched from pinballx to pinballx .net core version in the past.

These have 2 different installation guids, but could resists on the same path. To fix this :

Check the settings in DBM.

On the general tab, there is a 'application to manage'

Check if you have more than 1 version and switch the version.

(I think you also can select 'Pinballx .net core' )

I'm 99.9999 % sure that it will switch to your new path

Please let me know if this fixes your issue.

Sorry,

I see you have issues with game manager and steam.

If steam is on another path as well, you need reinstall steam to the correct new path.

For game manager, it is just a static list and not checking any directory for new games.

Post also your log file and pinballx.ini

Thanks for the feedback. Was able to correct the tables per your suggestion in DBM. I'll try the reinstall of steam to the other drive. Probably better that way.
