[RESOLVED] PinballX Error: Exception Processing Message (New install)

[rye74]

Hi There, new install of PinballX and shortly after it starts (everything looks good) but then I get the following pop-up and it crashes to desktop.

Looking in the event log I see the following:

Application: PinballX.exe
CoreCLR Version: 8.0.1525.16413
.NET Version: 8.0.15
Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.
Exception Info: System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.
Stack:
   at Direct2d.Device.Present()
   at Direct2d.Device.EndScene()
   at PinballX.FrmMain.a0()
   at PinballX.FrmMain.InternalNew()
   at PinballX.FrmMain..ctor()
   at PinballX.FrmMain.Main(System.String[])
 

 

Any help would be appreciated. I'm not sure where to begin troubleshooting.

 

Here is my ini file 

PinballX.ini

 

log.txt

I moved this to the correct PinballX forums - was originally posted under GameEx. To ensure a prompt response please be mindful of where you post.

This may take a bit of sleuthing to get to a solution.

Odd, your log file shows a good start till end. Are you sure this is the logfile during the crash ?

I found the solution. The backglass  and dmd was set to monitor=0 in the .ini file. I changed that and now I am no longer getting the popup.
