I've trawled the forum but cannot find an answer.  I did find a couple of posts but their suggestions don't fix the issue

 

Essentially when I load a table from PinballX it works, however it appears that PinballX doesn't seem to register that the table is loading and after a few secs of the standard loading screen, it opens itself up again on top of the FP loading screen.  The BAM/FP program loads in the background as does the table, however when the table eventually loads my controls are pointed to Pinballx, and I can hear the PinballX menu in the background.

 

I can manually alt+tab back round to the correct screen on my keyboard but its a real pain and I can hear the audio for FP and PinballX playing at the same time.

 

I've tried the following:

 

Parameters=/STAYINRAM /open "[TABLEPATH]\[TABLEFILE]" /play /exit /arcaderender

 

I've also tried /STAYINRAM at the end of the command.  I've also tried removing the /arcaderender line but it makes no difference.

 

Is there something I've done wrong?  I've followed terryreds instrucitons exactly as far as I'm aware?  I've got the most recent version of PinballX and BAM+FP installed.

 

Is there anything that I need to change in Future Pinball settings that will fix this, or something I can add to the command line in PinballX?

 

Its almost as if the table starts to load slightly slower than it should and that PinballX needs more time to recognise FP loading?  BAM/FP loads fine on its own without any issues.

 

Its driving me crazy, would appreciate some help here if possible.  I can post my .ini file later today if required.

 

Im running a Ryzen 2200g + 8gb ddr4 ram, GTX 1050 on 3 screens

 

Thanks

This issue is resolved.

 

I had reinstalled PBX at some point and not realised it had reset 'run as admin' option. 

 

Run as admin ticked + Parameters mentioned above resolved the issue!
