- Fix for portrait cameras cutting off the flippers. - NOT fixed! Problem still exists in Funhouse AND is now also apparent in El Dorado.

Yeah, fixed on other tables though.

 
lol - it wasn't really an issue on other tables... FS are totally clueless

Uhh yeah it was. Even your own videos in this thread demonstrate that it was an issue on other tables...lol.

Like I said - wasn't really an issue on others unlike Funhouse. So they fix the not-so-apparent ones but fail to fix the most obvious and completely unplayable one. SMH...

[jeffy777]

The flippers were getting cut off on the others, just not as bad as Funhouse. Maybe there's something else with that table that they need to fix first, who knows. Every video game is shipped with bugs these days, so this is nothing uncommon (I paid $60 for COD Ghosts on PC and it's buggy as hell). The good news is Farsight's patches are coming out fast. 3 in like two weeks. Good to see they are serious about the PC version.

Jeffy777 is correct and agree that FS is doing alot more than some of the newer games coming out. BF4 is a mess but hey what did I expect for a 60 $ game ..... lmao

AHK wiz I am not but I'm trying to edit Sir Cheddars ahk script. If I have the script in the same dir as the PinballArcade.exe it works.

 

I usually dump all my scripts in the game folder so in this case D:\Pinball Arcade\Scripts. If the same ahk script is in that folder it doesn't kick off PA. What am I missing??

ProgFiles := ProgFiles32()
dcworkdir =
dcparamlandscape =
dcparamportrait =
dcexe =
PAworkdir = D:\Pinball Arcade\


IfExist, %ProgFiles%\iRotate\iRotate.exe 
	{
	dcworkdir = %ProgFiles%\iRotate\
	dcparamlandscape = /rotate=0
	dcparamportrait = /rotate=90
	dcexe = iRotate.exe
} Else {
	IfExist, %ProgFiles%\12noon Display Changer\dccmd.exe
		dcworkdir = %ProgFiles%\12noon Display Changer\
	IfExist, c:\Hyperpin\dccmd.exe
		dcworkdir = c:\Hyperpin\
	dcparamlandscape = -rotate=up
	dcparamportrait = -rotate=right
	dcexe = dccmd.exe
	}
	

run, "%dcworkdir%%dcexe%" %dcparamportrait%

Run, "%PAworkdir%PinballArcade.exe"

can i remap keys yet?  is portrait mode new or is it just a windows rotated view like before.  I loaded  this on my cab, but haven't played it since week 1 since I was so let down and do not want to remap my keys again (using left and right arrows now because of pinball fx2)

[bolt]

Great news.

[Slydog43]

wow really worst gui ever.  just figured I could remap keys in the game, well sort of if you have the scroll bar keys visible when configuring controls (which are not visible in portrait mode).  After setting up for the keys on my cab I was getting excited.  I have played a few game with a keyboard, but that just sucks.  Now with the keys set up I get to play, well now the pinball arcade fails to launch, no error just sits there.  Hope they really get things improved, glad I stopped buying all the tables on android.  Might never get my money.  Ah yeah waiting to the PS4 launch as well as it was suppose to be ready at ps4 launch, but fail again.  farsight, far from quality ((

Dont know what you are doing, i have here 4 different systems and on all it works .. Not that i like it but it works ...

[gogo69]

i hope they give us more views or a possibility to move the camera .... i don't like when there is a gap on the left because they don't center the table but the flippers

If you comment out the regread parts of the script then you need to give the full path to the pinball arcade.exe or as you noticed be in the same working dir as it,

I have noticed its preferable in my case not to use the regread as I always get the config app pop up on first run, running the exe direct its not the case.

I do not know if you are on XP like me and using Irotate or not but as an example here is a section of a script I use in my upright cab with a rotating monitor (I have removed some non relevent parts), it starts pinball arcade then rotates the screen and navigates the menu to the "my tables" part...
