I presume you have a PinOne board?  If so, then the DOF code does not  work reliably to return the required COM port to DOFLinx.  I have heard that using 64 bit makes it less reliable than 32 bit DOF, but you should be able to get it going by getting DOFLinx to retry connecting.  Try adding the line PINONE_WORKAROUND=5 (5 retries) to your DOFLinx.INI

[tbone72237223]

I tried that script change, but it did not help..

 when i click on the doflinx.exe it flashes the strips the my matrix shows the DOFLINX on my matrix

then it goes to the error. it also shows a (microsoft.net framework error. at the botttom it says something about a JIT debugging . not sure what that means ? maybe i need to update my netframe work ?

do you think doflinx needs a framework update says (cannot write to a closed text writer)

 

i have a 10 output board that says its a WemosD1MPStirp Controller. but i think as you said is a pinone.

here is the new Doflinx text i got now.

 I want to thank you for replying as you are the god of this..

[DDH69]

Yes, DOFLinx is starting a ROM via DOF called doflinx then displaying the startup image "DOFLINX" on your back addressable LEDs.  Then DOF fails in the PinOne code to return a valid serial communication port to DOFLinx.  Here are the log lines indicating that

 

30-Aug-25 15:54:10.844 - PinOne Port = 

30-Aug-25 15:54:11.314 - PinOne Port =

30-Aug-25 15:54:12.267 - PinOne Port = 

30-Aug-25 15:54:12.761 - PinOne Port = 

 

If the PinOne code to find itself does not return a valid port then there is nothing DOFLinx can do to fix that.  Sorry, but the retry is the only thing I could do in my code to try and work around the issue.

[tbone72237223]

thank you,

do you have something i can do? reinstall a different version of doflinx? or is it the wemos configuration i made from cleaveland website? 

I'm not sure what i should or try to do.

I'll try anything you can think that may get it going. maybe install just dof 32 bit? then install doflinx? I dont mind starting over as i know how to install the programs and setup the ini.

and a question since im only using the leds and matrix is there a ini file for just that? like the one just for fx3 backglass? the backglass only ini doesnt have led controlls is that correct?

 

I want to thank you very much for just looking to help. i know your a very busy man helping hundreds of people too..

[DDH69]

I have not experienced DOF not recognising the PinOne device myself.  I have a PinOne for testing purposes and both my 64 bit and 32 versions get a response from DOF with a valid COM port.  I have heard people say that they have had success with the 32 bit version of DOF with the 64 bit version failing.  I can't see why this would be the case, but people have relayed this experience.

 

If you have installed both the 64 bit and 32 bit versions from mjr, which it is designed to do, then you should be able to simply change your DOFLinx.exe to 32 bit by copying the DOFLinx.exe in \DOFLinx\32 bit\ to \DOFLinx\ .  This will automatically pick up DirectOutput.dll from \Directoutput\x32\ . Certainly worth a try.

 

If you still can't recognise the PinOne, then comment out (# at the beginning of the line) the lines in your DOFLinx.INI that try to setup outputs onto the PinOne, ie LINK_XXX= , RGB_OUTPUT= . This will stop DOFLinx trying to setup outputs on an unfound output board (which is the error you are getting)

 

If all that doesn't give you any success, then try adding DISABLEDOF=YES to the command line arguments in your DOFLinx shortcut.

[tbone72237223]

I got it figured out..

 

i was using one of terrry reds ini files. and it was setup for two board i think

the first error for rgb item o trying to set device to 1 when you have 0 device detected

WAS this trying to setup a second board, I THINK.

..

 

# Device and "RED" ports for the 5 RGB flashers.

 

LINK_FLOL=201

LINK_FLIL=204

LINK_FLCN=207

LINK_FLIR=210

LINK_FLOR=213

 

(Changed to 1 from above)

 

# Device and "RED" ports for the 5 RGB flashers.

 

LINK_FLOL=101

LINK_FLIL=104

LINK_FLCN=107

LINK_FLIR=110

And i had to add the second script to find my (pinone) board. Dont know if this is the RIGHT script to write but it is working now..

works for VPX. FX3, going to see if Future pinball works next.

Again I want to thank you for all your help.. you are GODS in my book. I made a friend a couple of months ago

goes by Brewed VFX, I think you two have done things before. I started using all his retrowave files. and he made me a custom

Topper Video for my cabinet. He is a good man. I try to help people like you two. But i dont know this stuff to well

my first time using LEDS and Matrix.. But im a fast learner.But i wish there was newer videos out to explain this stuff. Major Frenchey has go stuff but i watched his youtube from 2018 then other peoples and there is so 

many videos, it gets confusing. I want to learn this and make new videos to Explain it. Some videos show doflinx setup as C:\DOFLinx\   then other videos show it as C:\Dof\DOFLINX and i got so confused in setting it all up

But I love this Stuff you made.. I'm also going to learn about motor, solenoids,Flashers,SSF all the bells and whistles that you made this stuff work with.

Thank You So  Very Very Much for all you do.

My Name is Tom Nichols.

And it is Nice to Know you Sir, Have a Great Day

Glad to hear that you are UP AND GOING !

 

Have fun.

[tbone72237223]

got a question again. tried dof and doflinx.

 

it works for all the emulators

 But sometimes my leds get stuck or stay on like the beginnning of atable. my playfield strips stay ON one is red and the other is blue and the under cab lights twinkle a white or light blue

I think. i exit out of pinup popper and they are still on. I have to unplug my usb cable or have to restart my computer. I stopped it in the task manager first, but they stayed on still. then restart my comp or unplug the usb.

not sure on this one what is happening? but i doing all this testing on my lap top to get it all going before i put it in my cabinet.

i think its my computer not good enough..

cpu I7-4700 HQ 2.40 ghz

asustek model G750JW

memory DDR3 12 gigs

nvidia geforce GTX 765m @gigs GDDR5

i know my memory could be better but im just trying to figure this stuff out and learn it. What do you think?

maybe its too slow to keep up with switching tables and emulators? and it hangs up?

 

please advise.  LOL

thank for your input.

Tom, best to try one piece of the puzzle at a time so you can tell where to look.  For example, run DOFLinx, start the emulator, sat Pinball FX direct from Windows, cycle through a table with some play, exit the emulator.  At that point determine if anything is not working as expected and we'll chase that down.  Once you have just DOFLinx and each emulator working, then add the front-end.  The trick can be that if you've got DOF enabled in your front-end menu, then you add another layer of complexity.  It will all work, but get it running one piece at a time.

[tbone72237223]

ok,

I tried everything outside of popper

first i ran FX3 with doflinx enabled and it worked fine

.

Then i ran Future pinball and killed DOFLinx from the task manager and it  worked fine.

 

Then i ran VPX still with DOFLinx disabled and it worked fine.

Its not killing DOFLinx when i go through popper.

 

I used terrys future pinball start and stop script. his latest from the popper site,

 

here it is.

 

Rem :Enable FP Backglass and Arcade Mode

 

REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Future Pinball\GamePlayer" /v "ArcadeMode" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Future Pinball\GamePlayer" /v "SecondMonitorEnable" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

 

 :Disable FP Backglass and Arcade Mode if "Custom Launch Param" = PinEvent

 

if "[custom1]"=="PinEvent" (REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Future Pinball\GamePlayer" /v "ArcadeMode" /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f)

if "[custom1]"=="PinEvent" (REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Future Pinball\GamePlayer" /v "SecondMonitorEnable" /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f)

 

Rem :If you use DOFLinx, Remove>rem<from the next 2 Lines) and Add **PinEvent** to **Custom Launch Param** in Game Manager

 if "[custom1]"=="PinEvent" (cd /d "C:\directoutput")

 if "[custom1]"=="PinEvent" (DOFLinxMsg "PROCESSES=")

 

Rem :Run DMDExt only if "Custom Var #2" DOES NOT = NO_DMDExt

 

if NOT "[custom2]"=="NO_DMDExt" (c:)

if NOT "[custom2]"=="NO_DMDExt" (cd "C:\vPinball\VisualPinball\VPinMAME")

if NOT "[custom2]"=="NO_DMDExt" (start /min "" "dmdext.exe" mirror --source=futurepinball -q --virtual-stay-on-top --fps 60 -g "[GAMENAME]" --use-ini="C:\vPinball\VisualPinball\VPinMAME\DmdDevice.ini")

if NOT "[custom2]"=="NO_DMDExt" (timeout /t 1)

 

Rem :Launch Future Pinball

 

START "" "[STARTDIR]Launch\VPXSTARTER.exe" 10 5 60 "BSP Software*"

START "" "[DIREMU]\BAM\FPLoader.exe" /open "[GAMEFULLNAME]" /play /exit /arcaderender /STAYINRAM

 

and the stop.

 

"[STARTDIR]LAUNCH\PUPCLOSER.EXE" WINTIT "Future Pinball" 2 1

 

REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Future Pinball\GamePlayer" /v "ArcadeMode" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Future Pinball\GamePlayer" /v "SecondMonitorEnable" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

taskkill /f /im "dmdext.exe"

 

Rem :If you use DOFLinx, Remove>rem<from the next 3 Lines (Have the PROCESSES= Match the one in your DOFLinx.INI But leave "

 

 timeout /t 1

 cd /d "C:\directoutput"

 DOFLinxMsg "PROCESSES="

 

I think i did it right. and i put (PINEVENT) in the emulator like it said to..

So now im lost to as why its not killing doflinx.

and sometimes when i check the task manager it looks like i have 2 DOFlinx in it.

looks like this=  DOFlinx (2) in the window. once i saw it had a 3 in it.  DOFLinx (3)

I thouht maybe it said 2 because it was a short cut in the startup folder..meaning it was number 2 shortcut.

maybe it cant kill 2 DOFLinxs

if it isrunning twice?

I just need the right script to run it.

 

I was reading about terry just using a task kill script to use for the startup and stop Script but i dont know if it was right or old stuff.

 

taskkill /f /im "doflinx.exe"    I think this goes in the start

 

cd /d C:\directoutput DOFLinx.exe And this in the stop

 

(OH) i did not do this as it was from 2016 Set the properties of the DOFLinx start-up shortcut to have “PATH_INI=C:\DirectOutput\DOFLinx_INI\” as a command line argument.

Should i have done this?

 

 

thanks if you can help.

Firstly, I do not recommend "killing" any process unless its locked up.  Stopping a process from the OS without proper exit can leave all sorts of odd states for devices and files.

 

I recommend leaving DOFLinx running all the time and simply control the processes that trigger it by adjusting the PROCESSES= via PROCESSES_DEL= and PROCESSES_ADD=

 

If you really want to stop DOFLinx (do consider start up delay next time as its not designed to stop / start) then at least be nice about it and quit properly, ie "DOFLinxMsg QUIT" from the command line or script.

[tbone72237223]

LOL, i didnt mean killing it. i would go to task manager and end task. just to test it like you said to do outside of popper.

but when i first turn on my computer and start FX3 it works great. but i found out when i ran both of the masters of the universe tables that is what was locking it up. 

so i downloaded every pinevent 2 tables and they all worked, and tried bladerunner and it worked as well.

but when i went to future pinball right from FX3 it would load dof and flash the attract mode but would not work in the games. but went to VPX from Future Pinball and they all worked with DOF.

I know you did one of the MOTU tables. they play ok but just lock up DOF with the playfield and under cab leds still ON.

i hope i didnt offend you? i didnt kill it. but i will figure out how to use your script to control the process...

No offence at all.  What you describe in your first sentence is "killing it".  Anything that the process doesn't control can be considered killing a process, ie end task.  Doing this doesn't give a process its normal opportunity to close files, devices, perform saves, etc.  You will likely get unpredictable results with DOF until you reboot if you stop DOFLinx by any other way than from its own UI or by sending it a QUIT command with something like "DOFLinxMsg QUIT".  There are included examples of other ways to send DOFLinx a quit message as well.

[DDH69]

Once you get your PROCESSES_DEL= and PROCESSES_ADD= scripting sorted, if you still have an issue then post your run before, run after scripts, your DOFLinx.INI and a DOFLinx.LOG ( https://doflinx.gith...Create_Log.html )
