It's a steam thing

  • Open Steam client
  • Choose Steam/Settings/Account
  • Change Beta participation to the Steam Beta Update
  • It asks for a restart, then the beta version will be installed.

Are you able to setup backglass images/videos and dmd in second monitor for non-steam Pinball FX2? I have a steam account for Pinball FX3 and have my second monitor set up with images and dmd but am unable to do so, so far for my non-steam FX2 tables.  Is there a way to do that? I would just purchase FX2 games in steam so I can get cabinet mode support, but they don't offer that anymore (i.e. South Park tables) so i'm not sure how to do that.  Thanks

Been awhile since I set this up and for the most part it is loading the game, wrong Backglass and it is no longer auto selecting the table like it did a few years back, which i will sort out later DMD is in the right place but my cabinet controls are not recognized...I can only play with a KB.

 

I used xpadder in the past but if I set that up in PBX it seems to hang up the launch and it just sits there.  Is anyone using xpadder or other application to get it so you can use your cabinet contrls?

 

EDIT:Actually just configured xpadder and it seems to work ok.  I feel there is a slight input delay but it is working!  :)

 

I guess the only thing left is to get to the game to go to the exact table vs the menu?
