So I have Visual Pinball up and running with PinballY as my front end and for the life of me I can't figure out where to put the wheel images.

I believe the image needs to be named exactly as the table. My media folder in PInbally looks like this Pinbally/media/VisualPinball/Wheelimages/'nameofimage' but nothing changes when I launch pinballY

I've tried different configurations ect but no luck, can one help? Does the word wheel need to be in the image title?

Any help for this poor old soul would be greatly appricated.

Hi there

 

When you run PinballY you should see the table names where you want the wheel images to be. Switch to the table you want to give a wheel image, hit Alt-Tab and have a File Explorer open in the background containing your wheel image - the location doesn't matter. Then just pick the wheel image with the mouse and pull it onto the table name in PinballY, and you should see a note about dropping it there. When you do, the wheel image is automatically placed in the correct location.

 

Hope you understand what I am trying to explain

I have dropped the wheels as described and PinballY confirmed the installation and the wheel images are created in a folder.
But they do not show um on the wheel. Have i missed an option to turn those on or off?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help. I switched to PinbalX meanwhile for various reasons.

It looks like that but no work this way.

Below the correct path. You must drop the wheel image as Pinball Y says. It is create in the wrong path. Move the folder "wheel images" to:

 

 

"\Pinball Y\Media\videos\"
