Future Pinball question.
« on: August 29, 2006, 04:01:57 am »
no one on future pinball forums is giving me a hand with this, and i can't figure it out. i want to run future pinball through my game ex front end. visual pinball was done by using the vpautoit program that comes with game ex in the command line, and joytokey for my controller. the commands within the game ex configuration are as follows:

also launch: [apppath]\vpauto.exe
command line: ..\vpinball -play -"[ROMFILE]"

...the paths were set on page one of the configuration. Now for 3 nights I've been trying to configure future pinball, and have come up empty handed. I would love if someone could help me out, the length of this post will show you how far at the end of my wits i am.

*fingers crossed* -katuuuz

Vpautoit is, I can see only for Visual Pinball, not Future Pinball.

You should try the FP, I created for commandline, wich also have a workaround for a focus problem:
