Hey sam. Its me from big blue font name is bauhaus i think but i have another idea that will make pause more hyperpinish and all custom images useless - on pause (short press) it would be great to show instructions.swf file from hyperpin and on the bottom hyperpin grahics for using left and right flippers for browsing flyer and then of course on flipper buttons go to flyer images and on esc go back to game and on 1 or enter exit from table glad to see you back feel free to jump in

Tnx guys, I will be under the sea or on the sea most of the time so that's why I won't be accessible. (You can check my home page www.submania.hr for more info ) In the meantime while I'm still here rocky and bent do you have loading screen that won't go away even though pinball is fully loaded in the back? And you press esc twice so you get pause and then back to game? I've checked code. I don't put focus on vp if you use loading screen. I never did. I wait for vp to become active cause to me this is a sign that application is fully loaded and loading screen can be closed. This is the code: if (systemName = "Visual Pinball") { IfWinExist, Visual Pinball Player,, DMD ;Check if visual pinball is Ready { IfWinActive, Visual Pinball Player,, DMD ;Check if visual pinball is Ready { Break } } If you don't get focus - that is an old known problem of vp - it won't put itself into focus if you don't use nt4sp5 compatibility mod. Do you have comp. mod set on vpinball.exe?

I will be afc (away from computer) for a few weeks as probably most of you (vacations). All of this looks solvable for now. Report what you find and we'll analize it when i get back.

you have to change your controller or mapping software so that they send Esc instead of e and you have to change settings.ini so that exitemulatorkey is Esc

I would like all the people that had problems with Esc key and they had to use e instead - to try to use Esc again and check if this version fixes Esc for them also! I know i had two problems with Esc when i used it with xpadder or joy2key: 1. Esc key would come to VP and invoke exit to editor or resume menu 2. Long press on exit button (which is mapped to Esc) would not be detected - so i would get flashing pause screen They are both fixed now. You could all try it now and see if this fix helps. As I remember some people with IPAC, Pinball Wizard and with some other controllers with xpadder/joy2key had this problem. This will not solve joy8 problem with PBW - so it is still good not to use button 8 on PBW but some other button for exit.

tnx bro meida fire link added

oki doki here is wip 4 dowloand link http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WYOL5D3D and upload.com link: http://uploading.com/files/e117534e/FPLaunch1.295wip4.zip/ and mediafire link: http://www.mediafire.com/?akzu7f77ej97ar3 test it and let me know how it works if everything is ok I'm updating manual on first page and my sig with link to new version new features are: - fixed dmd behind playfield - fixed esc key mapped over xpadder or joy2key (I've tested joy2key - works same as xpadder, so vp works, fp not) - added link to fplaunch manual on start of ahk script - read the manual! - added code map on start of ahk script - put most of "external" code from rosve and bigboss to functions for better "visibilty" - some small fixes on nag screens, error screens and so on - and another addition for my dear friend bent: for slamit bigscore keys left ctrl, right ctrl, f, g, i are all mapped to enter (magnasave, flyer, genre and instructions keys) so you can use whichever key you have on your cab so actually there is no new features but lots of bug fixes and reorganizations

I can't test ledwiz cause I don't have it. And I can't put any ledwiz code in it cause script will be incompatible with most of the people that don't have it but you can put whatever code is missing and recompile. I could maybe put some commented code for ledwiz folks to uncomment but can't test it or debug it. I can only debug it so that it works without problems without ledwiz.

gee this problem with button working in bbb 1.2 and not working in 1.295 was bugging me for a long time i'm also glad it is finally solved

yeah i noticed that, after few seconds of pause flashing it starts to show exit321 screens, but then it shows them and exits even on short key press that's not normal behavior, normal is to not show anything at first and then to show exit321 if it is long press and pause if it is short key press anyway i was very angry and decided i have to find out what kills long press on esc key mapped to some button with xpadder so i took my fplaunch 1.295 wip 4 and bbb 1.2 and compared it i commented maybe 10 #statements, but nada, still nothing so i took only command for checking keypress and started testing with that simple ahk script it worked for esc key mapped from button with xpadder so i started adding code around it it broke when i added * for hotkey * in front of key allows for any modifier (shift, alt or ctrl) to be pressed with esc, so that you can press pause while you hold ball on flipper but if your flippers are not shifts then * is not needed - I use left and right arrows for flippers and it is convenient cause you can go left and right if some dialog box pops up if you also map up and down arrow to nudge or magnasave you can even play baby pacman so * had to go after that i removed * from my fplaunch and it was still no go so i commented all # statements, and it woked again then i started to uncomment # statements one by one to see which one breaks long press functionality and i found that it is #usehook statement so if you remove #usehook statement and * from hotkey esc mapped to some gamepad button with xpadder will work just like esc from keyboard i'm not sure about joy2key - still have to test it unfortunatelly it will not work in fp - so for fp you will still need to use joy1 button i will probably put these two fixes (for hidden dmd and for long keypress) in fplaunch and publish wip 4 version soon

I've tried this cycle stop and it did not solved problem 2 for me. I still have pause flashing so long key press doesn't work. But i tried again fplaunch 1.2 from bbb and it works fine with long key press - so i will try to find what is different in my code. Code around it looks the same - probably the difference is in #statements - like #noenv and #maxthreadsperhotkey and so on. I will comment them all and try without them.

Actually you don't have to map esc key to anything. I use xpadder with joystick and I use button 1 for exit in hp, vp and fp without mapping it to esc. In HP i set button one as exit button in pinball wizard section: [Pinball Wizard] Joy = 0 -> set your gamepad id (number 0,1,2,...) Start = 9 Exit = 8 -> change this to 1 or whatever is your exit button. In fp and vp you don't need to configure anything to exit button, actually you must not have anything mapped to exit button. And for fplaunch you set exitemulator key to Joy1 in settings.ini Sending esc key with xpadder can be a problem because of two reasons: 1. autohotkey could not be able to stop esc key - so esc key will come to fp and vp and close fp or open exit menu in vp which will break pause functionality 2. it is difficult to detect if virtual key is pressed - so long press for exit could stop working Any way, deathevil it is not quite clear how did you added cycle stop, in xpadder configuration you add one cycle stop after esc in advance options? Did it solved 1 and 2 or only 2? If it solves both - it's a great find!!!

you have dmd on playfield? it's a known problem. it is not fixed in wip 3 but in my new version that i'm testing (wip 4) you have to: alt-tab to dmd click on dmd click on pf then dmd should stay on top i'm doing this in my new fplaunch script other method is to just press f3

I think none of these problems doesn't have anything to do with fplaunch. When you are in hyperpin fplaunch is not running so it can't change anything.

Tnx rocky. For fadespeed - it runs faster on faster systems. if you set it too low loop on exit key will be quicker so maybe if it is too fast you can't press esc short enough. Try just to touch it and release it. What buttons you have? For pause to be called you have to release it within first 10 loops.

250 = 9800 = 8800 so probably 8800 will do

1. was the answer for problem no. 1 - scrolling though tables and freezing you have loading window while you scroll through tables? for 2. you really have to use latest version cause that code is changing all the time, as soon as i can pinpoint a bug and repeat it on my rig i fix it but, i did not tested much on win7 (i can't, kids are playing on that comps all the time ) so everything is possible

1, can't be due to fplaunch cause it is not executed yet, so it must be win7 issue 2. try 1.295 wip 3, try also alt-tab to see what's going on.

Great! you can also hold e for few seconds to exit

Great

tornado did you installed images from fplaunch 1.294 version?

first page, second post of this thread

Hipi this is a great find and it works. Check you code and after: WinWaitActive, ahk_class VPPlayer ;Wait for vp to be Ready before killing Gui blackScreen just add: Send {F3} I've tried to add winactivate of vpplayer in loading screen loop but it completely breaks nag screen removal functionality. I've tried also clicking on mame window and on vpplayer but it is so unreliable So try this and let me know if it works on all tables, and i will put it in next release.

yeah, and during the night is colder then outside did you checked manual?
