Pinball FX help

[tligu]

Hi.
My setup is:
PinballX with Visual Pinball, FX3 and FX

Visual Pinball = all good
FX3 = missing color DMD

FX = missing color DMD, and I can't get FXLauncher to work

I guess that I can use FXLauncher for FX3, if I can get it to work

What to do?

Best regards

Jakob

Hi Jakob - I moved your post to the correct PinballX subforum. For more timely response, please open future threads requesting assistance within the PinballX > General forum.

Also, it is asked that you attach copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files to your thread when requesting help. This gives the team almost all the data they need to start triage of your problem and guidance on how to fix.

You may also want to refer to Pinball FX section of the excellent PinballX setup guide found with your installation of PinballX as well as here:

The Pinball FX launcher, was originally create by @joyrider3774as Pinball FX didn't have direct launch support.

As is stated on his github,the project is deprecated  :https://github.com/joyrider3774/PinballFXLauncher

If you want a game to launch which have direct table support, but you want to launch it with extra parameter, you can use @joyrider3774his PinballX launcher https://github.com/joyrider3774/PinballX_Launcher_app This program will add extra parameters before the game is launched. Created for Pinball FX, but can be used by Pinball FX, zaccaria Pinball and also Pinball wicked. Even every (steam?) App that can be launched with e tra parameters,  like players and/or game type

Steam id 678310 is Pinball Deluxe : Reloaded. I dont have it, but according to steam community the parameters are -loadtable : https://steamcommunity.com/app/678310/discussions/0/5545618081303600991/

but you don't need the launcher for it, the parameter for launching the table, should be set directly in the system of PinvallX
