uxb666 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Hi, I can't seem to figure out how to add a new list (Pinball FX tables added via the Other option in settings) to the Lists menu in PinballX. IS that done via a ini or xml file? In the database folder I have my folder for the syetm and the xml list in that, but when in PinballX and selecting Lists it is not an option. Can somone point me in the right direction to add it? More info: If I leave the xml file named Pinball FX it will show up and accessable in the Systems menu option. If I rename it to something else, the system option is gone and the list is not in Lists. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uxb666 Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 Hi, I have everything configured and working in "Other" for Pinball FX. Tables launch as expected from PBX if I go though the "Systems" option. Ideally what I'm looking for is when in PinballX, I would like Pinball FX to be a list item under lists. Right now when the xml in the Databases Pinball FX folder is left named "Pinball FX.xml" The "Systems" option is avaialble in the Menu. If I rename that file to "4. Pinball FX.xml" The Systems option is gone and no list item for "4. Pinballl FX" is avaialble in Lists. Menu (What I would like) Play Game Information Systems Ratings Rate Game Lists Most Played Last Played Recently Added All Tables 1. EM 2. Early SS 3. DMD 4. Pinball FX 5. FX2 Return All Tables Return ************ Databases folder looks like this ****** Databases/ Pinball FX/ 4. Pinball FX.xml Pinball Fx2/ 5. FX2.xml Vissual Pinball/ 1. EM.xml 2. Early SS.xml 3. DMD.xml **** Setup like this, no option 4 shows in Lists. As well, no "Systems" in menu. If I rename "4. Pinball FX.xml" back to "Pinball FX.xml" Systems option retruns, nop Lists option for Pinball FX. Hope this makes more sense. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scutters Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Please attach your pinballx\config\pinballx.ini and pinballx\log\log.txt files. I think what you want is an 'active filter' list if you want Pinball FX to appear under a different name under lists. Try pasting the following into notepad, and save it as '4. Pinball FX.ini' in the PinballX\Databases\Pinball FX folder; [Filter] Comment Year_from=0 Manufacturer Category Description= Author Theme System=Pinball FX Year_to=0 File 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it orders filters and playlists seperately, so had to play with it a bit to get it in an accepatable order. T 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
