Great video:) There is an option to add nudge on the cab for pinball FX, by using x360ce, an xbox controller emulator. I had previousely been using it on my cab, to add nudge for both zaccaria pinball, and pinball fx3, in steam. When I then installed pinball FX, it worked out of the box, both plunger, and nudge. The game imediatelly recognised my nudge board as an xbox controller. The downside is that x360 take some time to setup and adjust. I had to use the included dxtweak tool, to make my kl25z card input sensitive enough to register in FX3, and zaccaria. Without doing that tweak, the nudge boards input will be to weak. It basically increase the sensivity for controller input in windows. That mean I also have to adjust the sensivity afterwards in game settings for both visual pinball, and future pinball, as othervise the nudge will be to strong in thouse games. But when all is adjusted, it works fine.
Interesting....I also used x360ce on Pinballfx3 although I never was able to get nudge to work....I gather you have to bring the sensitivity up of the accelerometer to act as the analogue joystick....hmmm.. it seems you've done this but need to push the settings. PinballFX didn't need x360ce as it detected the controller automatically - but of course doesn't support nudging/adjusting sensitivity of the inputs. I'll take a look and see if I can also get x360ce working in terms of just the nudge with your suggested technique. Ultimately it would be great if we had native support. Thanks for sharing!
@@SpaciesArcade The accelorometer goes true direct input (or what it is called), built in win 10, and then to the game. Virtual pinball support the accelorometer natively, but pinball FX does not. You do not have to adjust anything on the accelorometer, just leave it alone. I assuming you are using a accelorometer based on the kl25z card? it is recomended to leave the cailbration on that card alone, (never cailbrate). I use version 4.17.15.0 of x360ce, as all versions probably doeas not work for 64bit win 10. In the included DX tweak, I have increased the sensivity curves rougly 100%, on both Y, and Y axis, but you card might be different. If I did not do that the sensivity would be to weak for the game to register as nudge. So when the accelorometer sends signals to direct input, the sensivity is doubled, before the signal is sent to pinball FX, which beleives it is an xbox controller connected. But the sensivity will increase on all other games also, like visual pinball. That is why after I had found the sensivity I was happy with when I installed it for fx3, and zaccaria, I had to lower the inbuily settings for both visual pinball, and future pinball afterwards.
After I installed pinball FX, I have not adjusted anything on the sensivity in dx tweak, as I would guess the game is set up similiar to fx3, regarding the nudge.
I can not give you exact details on how to set it up. Has been over 6 month since I did it myself. It can be a lilte cumbersome to setup. But I had saved a video which might help you some: look from 4:00 th-cam.com/video/zuVFAeF3ILU/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=BreakingPintMedia It is setup for fx3, but hink the procedure should be the same for pinball FX. I did not have to put the x360ce in any game folder as on the video (think any folder should work), and after it was setup for FX3 and working, I did not have to do it again for pinball FX
Not yet - It was made available by the community for PinballFX 3 (with some limitations) however those tools have not yet been updated for PinballFX. You can track the status of DOF for the solenoid support for PinballFX in this thread: www.vpforums.org/index.php?showtopic=50514&page=2 It was hoped that Zen would finally provide more native support - if not on their own, then through the community. This may be happening behind the scenes given their recent support of DMDEXT for real DMD support. Zen also supports feedback hardware through their partner offerings with 1Up and Atgames. However that support hasn't been enabled for the PC version. Keep watching this space as something is likely to develop...
Great video! When i actived the cabinet mode, i not see the Window for DMD and Backglass und Screen 2 and 3. It is minimize in the taskbar on this screen. I not found the problem.
Yes in fact it is something I forgot to mention. I set mine up on a 2-screen v-pin initially and yes you can move the DMD to the backglass. I do find that it is a little high for me to look up to...but yes you can do it easily with the new onscreen controls
That would be amazing. They really need to at complete cabinet support that would be huge deal for them.
Glad you also have a drum kit in your cave!

Glad you said that. I just copied my 'settings.ini' and from FX to M. It was WAY easy. Cheers!
Thanks! I’ve been waiting for someone to give real details. Looks like I’m gonna hold off until they get the cabinet mode improved.
Great Review, Thank you!

+1 for real DMD support.
Is there SSF and solenoid support for pinball fx ?

Is it possible to display the DMD on the Backglass, or will it be displayed on the Playfield? I have a 2-Screen VPin.

Another quality video by Spacies! Keep em coming... \m/
If a girl was CABS..."I've been waiting, for a girl like you....".... ;)
@@SpaciesArcade "Fall in love with your cabinet all over again"... hmmmmmm
@@ShawnBeuscher I look forward to that.... ;P
