Grrr, awful Microsoft black box.  There must be some other step you have to do that no one documents - maybe you have to install some .Net debug version or something, or at least reboot Windows.  Well, it was worth a shot; it would be awfully interesting to know what those supposed logs would have to say, but I guess .Net doesn't give up its secrets that easily.

 

found it. it was there all along in a new directory called "NativeImage"

this looks promising.. compare these...

Once again I feel like an idiot.  I ran the installer for the unified DOF and told it to install in c:\visual pinball\tables\plugins\directoutput and wham, it works just like before.  I'm still having trouble with DOFLinx, but I will post questions in another thread about that.  Getting cab close to working perfectly again (or as perfect as VP can get).

Thanks mjr,

I downloaded and ran the msi for 20180306, then rebooted and reran the checkpoint vpt - no change....  Then I pulled the usB connection on the Sainsmart and ran checkpoint using the keyboard - no shaker motor or selenoids.  1st log is with patch and sainsmart.  2nd log is with patch and keyboard only.

this looks promising.. compare these...

 

"/NativeImage/VPinballX.exe/mscorlib,%20Version=4.0.0.0,%20Culture=neutral,%20PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089.HTM"

vs

"/NativeImage/VPinballX.exe/Microsoft.VisualBasic,%20Version=10.0.0.0,%20Culture=neutral,%20PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a.HTM"

 

I'm looking... anything specific you see there that's interesting?


I downloaded and ran the msi for 20180306, then rebooted and reran the checkpoint vpt - no change....  

 

Well, I guess it wasn't the Sainsmart cross-wiring, then.   From your logs, everything looks fine as far as DOF is concerned - I don't see anything there that looks like an error.  So I'm afraid you're wrong that it's not working. :) 

 

Seriously, though, I really don't know what else to try.  With all of the DOF layers saying they're happy, it's hard to guess what could be wrong.  

 

Taking a page from coreduo0099's experience with DLL paths, maybe you could try copying the PacLed*.DLL files from the DOF folder to your VP executable folder.  I'm thinking that maybe the wrong DLL is loading.  I don't hold out much hope that this will fix it, but it's all I can think of for the moment.  I can't even think of any diagnostics to add given that all of the existing diagnostics are reporting condition green.

coreduo0099, nw54:  Another update to try.  I'm trying something new, pre-loading the various DLLs explicitly from the DOF DLL folder rather than letting Windows try to find them on its own.  I'm hoping this will eliminate the weird path dependencies you're seeing, coreduo0099, and maybe solve some of the other random problems by ensuring that the right DLLs are always loaded.

 

http://mjrnet.org/pi...jr-20180307.zip

http://mjrnet.org/pi...jr-20180307.msi

 


And one other thing to look at, nw54: you might do a full search of your hard disk and see if you have any PacLed*.DLL files installed anywhere else on the disk.  If so, one of the other copies might be getting loaded at some point and creating a conflict of some kind.  If you find any elsewhere, either delete them or rename them so that they won't get loaded.  If that fixed DOF for you but breaks some other program, we can figure out what to do about that next.

well I spoke too soon.  I ran the installer DirectOutput-mjr-20180218.msi and told it my directoutput location.  Turned on debug and checked the log.  Seems like I didn't update to latest dof.

Post your GlobalConfig_B2SServer.xml File

 

well I spoke too soon.  I ran the installer DirectOutput-mjr-20180218.msi and told it my directoutput location.  Turned on debug and checked the log.  Seems like I didn't update to latest dof.

Any ideas on my issue? I'm still stuck. Pinballx plugin doesn't find the framework but everything else works..

 

You might want to try the new version I posted today:

 

http://mjrnet.org/pi...jr-20180307.msi

 

If it's working in one program environment but not another (like your case), it seems like it must be a DLL path issue, which is what I'm trying to deal with in this update.  I'm not sure if the approach here is going to solve it, but it might be worth a shot.


well I spoke too soon.  I ran the installer DirectOutput-mjr-20180218.msi and told it my directoutput location.  Turned on debug and checked the log.  Seems like I didn't update to latest dof.  

 

Well, if the old version is getting picked up by B2S, it's one of those traditional DOF install problems with one of the 18 interlocking scattered files not getting updated.  Which is exactly what the MSI is supposed to solve, so it must be missing something.

 

Try this:

 

- Go to your system control panel

- Run Add and Remove Programs

- Find DirectOutput in the list

- Uninstall it

- Download the latest MSI  - http://mjrnet.org/pi...jr-20180307.msi

- Open a CMD prompt

- CD to the folder containing the downloaded MSI

- Run the MSI with logging:

 

 DirectOutput-mjr-20180307.msi /L install.log

 

Then let's see what install.log says.  Hopefully that'll explain what's going wrong or what's getting missed.

 

If you can't spot the problem yourself and want to post the results, you might also want to include all of your full file paths - VP, VP tables, B2S, DOF, PBX.

coreduo0099, nw54:  Another update to try.  I'm trying something new, pre-loading the various DLLs explicitly from the DOF DLL folder rather than letting Windows try to find them on its own.  I'm hoping this will eliminate the weird path dependencies you're seeing, coreduo0099, and maybe solve some of the other random problems by ensuring that the right DLLs are always loaded.

Interesting.. with the new file, i got the exact same behavior:

-Launch VPX + AC/DC = NO DOF

-hit q to quit, then F5 to play = DOF

 

So I did some tinkering.

Like before if I make a copy of Extensions.dll to my vpx folder DOF works first time.

 

Then I decided to remove Extensions.dll from my DirectOutput folder and it still worked the first time.  however the log states this:

2018.03.07 23:56:59.607    Pre-loading DLL Extensions.dll from file:\E:\Emulator\Pinball_emu\DirectOutput\Extensions.dll

 

however since DOF worked and i had removed it from my DirectOutput directory, that is impossible. It should have been:

2018.03.07 23:56:59.607    Pre-loading DLL Extensions.dll from file:\E:\Emulator\Pinball_emu\Extensions.dll

 

So it thought it was reading from my directoutput folder but actually pulled form my vpx folder.

 

to test, I also then removed Extensions.dll from my VPX folder and DOF never functions with the backglass and I get the Extensions.dll not found message like before, (which I should since it does not exist anywhere)

 

Thanks again for all the hard work on this.. It is awesome despite this bizzarre config issue.

Just a little confused with some setup with cabinet.xml, globalConfig.xml_B2SServer.xml but will look into it.  
 
Thanks again, I hope this can help others.   Now onto DOFLinx :)

2018.03.07 23:56:59.607    Pre-loading DLL Extensions.dll from file:\E:\Emulator\Pinball_emu\DirectOutput\Extensions.dll

 

Then I decided to remove Extensions.dll from my DirectOutput folder and it still worked the first time.  however the log states this:

 

 

however since DOF worked and i had removed it from my DirectOutput directory, that is impossible. It should have been:

2018.03.07 23:56:59.607    Pre-loading DLL Extensions.dll from file:\E:\Emulator\Pinball_emu\Extensions.dll

 

Oops - yeah, I logged what it was attempting, but not the results.  And I think that "file:\" prefix from C# was actually screwing things up anyway, so this might not have had the intended effect.  I've posted another round that fixes those - this one reports the results of each load so we can see if it's actually doing what it's supposed to.

http://mjrnet.org/pi...jr-20180308.msi

 

 

to test, I also then removed Extensions.dll from my VPX folder and DOF never functions with the backglass and I get the Extensions.dll not found message like before, (which I should since it does not exist anywhere)

 
I just realized that you've been posting pictures of the error box and I don't know exactly where that error box is coming from.  Is that the B2S plugin status message, or is it coming from somewhere else?  Does it appear spontaneously when you run, or are you going looking for it in the B2S right-click settings?  The location and timing of its appearance might be important - I might be looking in the wrong place for where the failed DLL load is happening.
 

 

 I uninstalled old version, completely removed my old DirectOutput directory (renamed it DO_old-working).

installed DOF+++unified DirectOutput-mjr-20180307.msi with logging.  Seemed to go smooth.  here is log

 

...

 

copied over my old directoutputconfig.ini to DirectOutput/config

 
Seems to WORK NOW!!!!
 
Great!  Everything looks good in the install and DOF logs, so assuming the devices are actually working, I think you've got it!

Any ideas on my issue? I'm still stuck. Pinballx plugin doesn't find the framework but everything else works..

 

You might want to try the new version I posted today:

 

http://mjrnet.org/pi...jr-20180307.msi

 

If it's working in one program environment but not another (like your case), it seems like it must be a DLL path issue, which is what I'm trying to deal with in this update.  I'm not sure if the approach here is going to solve it, but it might be worth a shot

 

Ran home on my lunch break to give her a shot. Unfortunately no luck. Since this hasn't been reported by anyone else I'm wondering what could be wrong. This was a clean install with no other dof's having been on this system before.

Are you getting any kind of log output from PinballX when it fails?  Did you use the MSI installer or do a manual install from the ZIP?  If you did the manual install, you might try the MSI, since it does the extra PinballX setup steps - it's easy to miss one of the steps manually since there are so many scattered files in this mess.


And if you do try another run with the MSI, it might be worth capturing its log to double-check what's doing.  Run it from a CMD prompt with a command like this:

 

DirectOutput-xxxx.msi /L install.log

Tried again with the msi. The first quote is the install.log and the second is the pinballx plugin log. Everything still works except the plugin

fakingdeath - it looks like everything got installed correctly.  The problem looks to be that CO_E_CLASSSTRING error from .Net.  I've been poking around looking to see what that's about, and I haven't been finding a lot of good information - this seems to come up in other products using .Net DLLs as well, and no one has a good explanation of what it means or how to fix it.  One thing I've found...

 

https://msdn.microso...ror=-2147217396

 

...suggests that this might be UAC/privilege-related.  Any chance you're running PinballX in Administrator mode, or anything else in Administrator mode?

 

Other suggestions involve clearing your global assembly cache with the GACUTIL tool, and running this incantation, in a CMD prompt, with Admin privileges:

 

marshal.exe /RegServer

 

I'm really getting to dislike .Net.

I do run pinballx in admin mode so i changed properties and had pinballx start without admin and log shows same errors. Everything else runs as user.

What I do find interesting is that prior to the msi install, the log always stopped at "...check to make sure directoutput.com object is registered"

After reading through the provided link (thanks btw) and subsequent clickable links I'm actually wondering if it could be because I'm running windows 10 ltsb.

Side note: Found your pinvol a couple of hours ago and I'm super excited, solved even more concerns! You're a talented person. Thank you for such great software!
