Correct me if i am wrong, but i dont know where else to ask for support about this product. Isnt this topic for just that?
 
Future Pinball x y nudge support? invert? , i went from xp to win7 now, and now i dont even see any axis in future pinball to select, just says NONE
plunger support in future pinball?
 
in the first post it says "Fully compatible with Visual Pinball, Future Pinball, HyperPin and more"


Well, this topic was intended as an announcement, but has since turned into a support topic, it seems. As previously mentioned, for best results, contact [email protected].

Configuring FP is convered in the manual. I'm currently cloning a failing HDD, so I don't have the pdf handy. I believe it's attached to the first post.

In FP, I believe you need to be running an English version of Windows, whether that means changing your default system language or what, I am not sure as I haven't messed around with FP (and I am an English user anyway). I am not sure if you had stated anything to this effect previously, but just wanted to mention it just in case.

Is the plunger supported in "The Pinball Arcade" (PC)?

I'm thinking about installing this in my Mame cab. Currently my plunger is one of the typical Happ push buttons. If I want to put this plunger in that spot, what do I need to drill to make it fit?

Thanks.

Just for the record in-case someone else runs into this...

 

The nudging on my Pin Cab Build was working to the right side normal but very weak or sometimes reversed for a nudge to the left. Also it seemed that I was adjusting the nudge strength global settings up or down at times to get the right responses.

 

It seemed OK awhile ago...

 

I found that the problem was that I had loaded Thrustmaster Gamepad software several weeks ago to support also using Mame on the backglass monitor for my grand kids. Evidently The Dll's it installed were causing all the problems.

After uninstalling the Thrustmaster software and it's Dll's the nudging is back to normal.

Hi guys !

 

  Just received mine and I have a question... the new model doesn't show up correctly in Future Pinball it seems... I see the device but no analog axis to set up for plunger and nudge in the dropdowns (there is only none as a choice)...

 

  Noah any hint ?

 

  Works well in VP by the way !

 

Thanks !

 

Steve

Hi Steve. I'm no FP expert by any stretch, but it's been reported to not work in non-English copies of XP. Not sure if this also applies to win 7 or not. Would this be applicable in your case?

Or just use this solution from post #161
Had the same Problem with Win8 64 German.
Solution is already out there.
FP needs an english OS ! ..... or the english dinput8.dll in the install folder as workaround

What is the status of shipments at this time? I placed an order and I almost fell out of my chair when it said 4-6 weeks for delivery.

So I got my plunger today and tried to hook it up to my cabinet and I cant get it to work with FX2 on steam. I have an Ipac(smaller version) hooked up to my PC. I plugged in the USB and that doesn't work, as I assumed there would be a mapping program to download with this unit. Is there a way to connect this kit to the ipac with the wire connections that came with the kit?
