Out of curiosity, for those of you running Windows XP AND Future Pinball, do the latest drivers allow you to use reflections or are there still artifact problems with those as well?


With 270.61 there aren't ANY problems with FP. Well.... at least in my case.
Only one VP table is artifacting on one right bottom flasher and that is Radical.

Thanks for the information. I cannot even imagine reinstalling everything to get rid of Win 7 64 bit but with XP working with the latest drivers I really LOVE the FP ball and playfield reflections. That alone is almost worth me going to the trouble to be honest.

Did you already try taking your drivers to 560.99? Or whatever version is said to work with FP in w7-64? If so, did you see decreased performance in VP?

are you sure backglass in fp and print screen are working?
they never worked together before, if one works, the other does not. On win 7 cab mode of course, xp is fine and desktop is fine.

I am running Win 7 64 bit, both FP and VP tables on my 3 monitor cab. Nvidia GTx 460 and GTS 450 cards running driver 260.99. VP runs great. FP runs great as well although I cannot have playfield or ball reflections turned on because it will leave black boxes/artifacts as the ball traverses down the playfield. Contemplating going to XP so I can use this feature in FP. This creates even more realism and looks fantastic on a cab so very disappointed I can't use these features within FP sad.gif.

just as a small update on my original topic: the newest 275.XX series fixes the issue again, so it might have been just some stupid bug on my hardware configuration with the 270.XX series..
