I thought you found the answer already since you say you "wasn't" sure - the answer is no, different exe for fp is not supported but you can edit the script and use same code as for vp to make it possible.

looks like win 7 bugs, cause when you start hyperpin there is no fplaunch yet, so it could not cause freeze try using xml with only one game in it.

put debugmode to file and check what you get in log, or post it here. i never had problems with loading of the tables

use some other key - not escape - there is no way to fix escape since it is hardcoded in vp - but this is all explained in fplaunch manual - did you read fplaunch manual?

yup, that would be it very simple mod and you compile it with autohotkey basic version

shit, my response disappeared, maybe i forgot to press send in short service menu is not dangerous - you can enable it - nothing in there reset table just sends f3 which is just like exit from table resize fp sends scroll lock and bring table to front tries to bring table to front which is used on every close of menu screen or launch of table i've checked the code what could be the problem, didn't find anything, plus as stated in previous post and several posts before soon all these options will be removed they give like thousands of combinations for testing, what if this is true, and this false and this true and so on can't have a good code with so many options since most time i test it i test with all options on true

there is no way to make p act different then exit, cause these keys are bound to same procedure no mater what options you choose so you can have exit button and p button launch exit menu, or have them both launch pause window, or have them both exit out imediatelly out of the table you have these options explained in fplaunch manual they all have historical meaning cause lot's of new options came with time, so if i would do them now when i know all that fplaunch can do, they would probably look different still you can change them very easy by jumping in the code and changing hotkey statement on right place, or changing some if statements any way, even with existing options code is far to complicate to enable more options, i'm even thinking about removing most of the behaviour options and using menus always for example exit method if all options are set to true is exitscreen function this function depending on state of the game, long press, short press, flyer or intr on screen will close all that is on screen or if nothing is on screen it will call pause function or exit321 countdown (on long press). pausegame will cal exit menu or pause screen depending on useexitmenu variable (so one function does both keys - so no way to change it now unless you change something) exitmenu shows menu

:laugh:, no no, you are looking at hyperpin settings, i don't use any hyperpin settings - all fplaunch settings are on the end in fplaunch section read fplaunch manual and read ahk script - all options are explained on the beginning of the ahk script and in the manual

set debug mode to file and send me last few lines from log file something like this: 09:05:21 | Exit Menu Closed - CloseGame p0 m0 f0 i0 09:05:21 | CloseGame Called p0 m0 f0 i0 09:05:24 | exitScript Called p0 m0 f0 i0 09:05:24 | GDI+ Unloaded p0 m0 f0 i0 09:05:24 | COM Unloaded p0 m0 f0 i0 09:05:27 | waithp 1 p0 m0 f0 i0 09:05:32 | waithp 2 p0 m0 f0 i0 09:05:32 | waithp 3 p0 m0 f0 i0 09:05:32 | Exit p0 m0 f0 i0 09:06:41 PM | Quiting program 09:06:41 PM | Exit Program Unvavailable 09:06:41 PM | Bye! i noticed something similar but different - vp will close, hp will activate (pass all three checks) but then it will not respond to mouse or keys - only to alt-f4 will have to change something in triple check functions

do you have ahk basic or ahk_l on your cab? try to add: COM_CoInitialize() in com.ahk after com_init()

fplaunch.exe must not be in xp compatibility mode, it must be native

nothing is changed in instructions code do you have com.ahk in hyperpin folder? maybe you moved it by mistake with images to media/hyperpin/images.

yup, that's why your build of vp is great - no problems with exit, pause, volume, ...

you might have some config problems, what are your options? i have uvp and scared stiff opening and closing fine for b2s tables you have to set launchb2s to false for uvp might be something with keys esc and joy8 on pbw are forbidden keys for exiting

there is a bug in wip 8 with closing tables. there is a fix for it, few pages before. you have to change script and recompile. But here is the new version wip9 - http://www.mediafire.com/?bwxlu5jjral21wa New features are (copy from the script history): 1.295 wip 9 + fixed vp doesnt close bug (detect hidden windows on) + capture screen code removed (not used any more) + printscreen for backglass added (o saves pf, u saves bg) + code map updated + reorg - all procedures moved up and down a bit + #winactivateforce added (didn't help much - actually made some wierd problems and freezes - removed) + fix focus on table close in win7 with triple checks + lots of triple checks added (ifactive, waitactive, ...) + taskbar shown on exit if there is no hyperpin process + cursor shown on exit + show vp/fp editor on error and close loading slider + activate commands moved to functions + file and screen debug modes added + toggle taskbar on t key (it was always shown, now it is hiden also) + fix blackscreen gui (no need for black screen if useloadscreen is true) + remove all detect hidden windows off + remove double exitscreen - it is executed on exit, no need to call it + find why hyperpin freezes sometimes ??? (activate force maybe) not much new things, but lots of bug testing on win7 and chasing black and white screens what's important - save backglass key added (u by deafult, you can use it in vp and fp) debug modes are now file, screen or true (for both), purpose is obvious t will now show and hide taskbar focus on win7 should be fixed (not the delay!!! delay will stay) feel free to report any bugs you find install is as usual - extract all to hyperpin, move images to media hyperpin images don't forget to READ installation manual - http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?p=100473#post100473

there is support for setting sound level on table basis already in fplaunch - from big boss i think

I think i have that in some of the add-ons people sent to me. (It is not in the code yet) But there is also an included volume key in VP, by default it is + and - i think (keys by the backspace key) so i'm thinking of just using them - i can add two configurable mappings to menus for these keys and you can assign them to anything - for example to nudge buttons or magnasave buttons if you have them.

nope, that won't work check where you have other :: mappings in the script and add yours there, or use hotkey command

you can't use :: in in file, ini file is never executed you have to put it in ahk and recompile

great! tnx sam xio - first tnx for compliments, rbutton will be sent when you press exit or pause button, then fp makes pause and we do print screen of then show menus over printscreen image (it's not possible to draw over opengl), if you want to have button only for sending pause to fp to get hiscores without menu - that's not possible - but you can edit fplaunch and add one hot key that would do only send of rbutton takedown - you're welcome, i'm using notepad++ and with included diff i can see differences to any previous version, i have all previous versions saved on disk - so i have versioning and easy debuging - but i will check for github also

tnx, win7 version is on the way, so no need to test that sample code i wrote i've added much more checks in the code since then

there is a fix for that two pages back - you have to change ahk a bit and recompile (with basic version)

that problem probably won't be fixed before you finish your cab, since it is some strange hyperpin / win7 / multi monitors problem and maybe even totally win7 oriented so microsoft should look into it only thing that could be fixed is focus problem - i added some kind of super triple check that checks three times if hyperpin is active and does that in a loop i'm tuning the script a little - generally it works - but every now and then i don't get focus so i tune script a bit and then test again but that will fix only focus, not the waiting time - wait time will still be probably same as before

if you mean PBW DIY kit - that is also described extensively in fplaunch mod manual. you can use joy8 as exit key but then you can't use long press for exit (because joy8 exit which is hardcoded in vp doesn't close uvp server properly) but you can do everything except long press - which is not big deal (specially since menus are implemented - you just press exit - up and enter and you are out). if you want long press you have connect some unused connection from pbw board - like joy16, and then you use joy16 as your exit key - NO NEED TO MAP IT TO "e" joy16 is just fine for exit key. read fplaunch mod manual carefully (PBW section is after ipac section and has totally different problems and solutions)

soft rendering solved ball over flippers problem, and it is still fast enough - so it's ok for now, untill intel does some better driver for win7 for black screen and blinking, didn't find any solution yet. it seams like it has something to do with screen auto detection, i think if i could turn screen auto detection off there would be no blinking, but didn't find a way to turn off screen auto detection in win 7 i remember that some people said they have 20-30 seconds pause when they exit to hyperpin, regarding that my pause is quite ok, only few seconds
