    Master List of Issues: Pinball FX

    I had issues when jumping around between full screen, borderless widow, and windowed mode that I could track before with the Nvidia performance overlay app. The settings did not fully take and there was no option to "confirm" my selection, and I would have to use the ALT+TAB key to get things...

    Master List of Issues: Pinball FX

    While they seem to have made enormous improvements with regards to PC optimizations in the last update, I'm sure there are still quite a few issues that need more attention. As you have noticed, the in-game vertical sync setting wreaks havoc on the latency. Maybe the video card settings will...

    So, FX is very much a mixed bag, but they do get some stuff right.

    The mechanics of The Addams Family pinball machine can be annoying. The toy hand that grabs the ball takes forever, and I catch myself muttering "No, no, no!" just like Gomez in the game. It's like, come on, let's get this show on the road! And those random lightning effects that mess with the...

    The latest update on Steam, which added DLSS to Nvidia graphics cards and likely required considerable optimization work, has significantly improved performance. Monitoring before and after shows that the game is much more stable in menus and when the leaderboard screen appears between games...

    Master List of Issues: Pinball FX

    Happy about the update on Steam. I was able to finally play Twilight Zone without the gumball machine getting stuck and my game essentially crashing and losing my score. Overall, the performance seems a bit better and Whirlwind looks great. I hope that updates are not packaged with new table...

    Have they already abandoned the Steam version? No updates since launch, and there are some egregious bugs that need some attention.

    Master List of Issues: Pinball FX

    Same TZ gumball machine lost ball. I nudge a lot, so I probably got it stuck somehow. It always happens when I’ve set a new scoring record. It is anecdotal, but the game breaking issue has never happened on just a good score, only when I’ve passed my personal best score, at least in the...

    Can't figure out this one, but it is becoming a consistent bug. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sAdW8vMeDVz6c_E_tmOSXqEsJWfkJM9R/view?usp=sharing

    They all have a few bugs, but only a couple tables have game breaking issues, and even then, you might not experience them. Check out the Master List from @Pinballwiz45b. It is amazingly thorough, and compared to Pinball Arcade, seems to be in better shape overall. It is early, and I think...

    Master List of Issues: Pinball FX

    There is an additional game-breaking bug in Twilight Zone where it seems a ball is stuck in the gumball machine and there does not appear to be a way to get it out. It moves slightly in the gumball machine and even a tilt and hard nudging after tilting does not progress the game. You have to...

    Pinball FX released

    I've observed an interesting pattern while monitoring my RTX 3080 Ti card as I play FX. When playing Williams tables at 2560x1440 resolution in view 2, with frame rate locked and game settings at 120 FPS, the power consumption ranges between 170W and 200W. My 144Hz G-sync monitor ensures a...

    That is a lot of fixes. Thanks for keeping up with it all.

    Pinball FX released

    I can get the render latency to under 4ms consistently, and this appears to make the game more enjoyable. Locking the frames to 120 with my G-sync monitor seems to be the best option for me. Interesting that the performance while playing a table is much better than when navigating the user...

    Still no exact release date for consoles?

    Nice job with your scores! I like the physics with the newest version, certainly. Hoping all the bugs and kinks are resolved before too long.
