    What controller do you use for PC?

    I may have this at least partially figured out. :) If I do a "Send a" I am not getting the Left Flipper problem. If I do a "Send A" I am getting the problem. In both cases I do get the nudge left, but the nudge even works much much better with "Send a". Interesting. It may be because of...

    Building A Virtual Pinball Cabinet

    What computer and what video card did you wind up getting? Did you put the PC itself in the cabinet? Or do you have the PC external to the cab and ran an umbilical cord set of wires to the cab?

    What controller do you use for PC?

    In TPA, the middle mouse button is not used at all in my Options/Controls/Keyboard-and-Mouse. And my problem with the "Left Flipper side effect" still happens when I run the test with the AutoHotKey hotkey being just the middle mouse button alone (without anything being a modifier in that...

    What controller do you use for PC?

    Zaphod77, thanks for the advice, but I am not really following what you mean about swapping the mouse buttons. I did physically rotate the two mice if that's what maybe you mean. And to avoid having to do that , I did try a "Switch primary and secondary buttons" in Control Panel/Mouse...

    What controller do you use for PC?

    Hi Jeff, I was familiar with AutoHotKey because I was already using it at work. Then, after seeing your post I tried to get AutoHotKey to work with middle mouse button as the hotkey to send the letter "A" to do a nudge to the left in TPA. I ran into an issue, where it is also doing a left...

    Building A Virtual Pinball Cabinet

    You're welcome L33. Oh, and I found that NVIDIA manufacture link about the Batman: Arkham Night giveaway going on now. (For purchases of GTX 960, 970, 980, 980TI, 970M, and one of the notebooks.) Here's the main page: http://www.geforce.com/free-batman From there everyone can choose their...

    Building A Virtual Pinball Cabinet

    Since you are looking for the computer, a few thoughts. From what I've read, not everyone puts the PC (or PC guts) into the cabinet. Here's an article about someone who has a powerful external PC: https://virtualpinballblog.wordpress.com/2014/02/26/my-pinball-cabinet-build/ where he says in...

    +1 to everything Jeff just said.

    Building A Virtual Pinball Cabinet

    And once you have that video card wired to your multiple monitors/TVs, L33, you will have to set up the multiple monitors to work together in Windows. (In your case the "multiple monitors" could be a TV, and one or more PC monitors. Or perhaps 2 TVs and 0-1 PC monitors. Etc...) I just found a...

    Building A Virtual Pinball Cabinet

    It is very entertaining, and educational! I love the line in the "opening crawl", “There was only one way to fix this, but if it went wrong it could spell the end of the Death Star…I mean the pinball cabinet.” :D (I never heard the term "opening crawl" before, until I found it by doing a...

    when will we see cabinet options?

    Rooter, where does someone purchase a cabinet from a real pinball table at such a great price? P.S. Based on this thread and others in the PC section of this forum, there is obviously lots of interest by TPA Fans who already own cabinets, or who are interested in buying or building one...

    Building A Virtual Pinball Cabinet

    Oh good to know, SilverBalls. While I am "carpentry challenged", I am handy with electronics and wiring. (Because I took years and years of Electric Shop in school, I never had time to take a wood shop class which I regret now.) Ah, good ol' IKEA, we even have that in the Seattle Area. :)...

    Building A Virtual Pinball Cabinet

    L33, now that I truly see how hard it would be for someone like me who is "carpentry challenged", I feel better about the fact that I haven't attempted to build a cabinet. Plus, I don't have the all the same power tools, nor the extra shop space at the moment. But at least since I'm in the...

    Share your Camera file packs!

    As far as the "Auto hide HUD" check box on the left side, are you sure it does anything for you on any of the tables? I am unable to see that it has any effect whatsoever on a table, if there is already a cam file for that table and it already has "<HideHUD>False</HideHUD>" or...

    Share your Camera file packs!

    nudnick, I finally had a chance to use the Mod on my 40inch TV in portrait mode. Your main and backglass Cam views look great on a large screen like that in portrait mode! (Like you, I own all the tables.) A tweak I am gong to want to change to a large number of your cam files is to use...

    Share your Camera file packs!

    DornoDios, I am using TPA with both a 23inch monitor in portrait mode and a 40inch TV in portrait mode. The portrait monitor is able to be at an angle, but the portrait TV has to be pretty much vertical. (TV uses an inexpensive articulating wall mount, plus a table and paperback book shoved just...

    when will we see cabinet options?

    L33, the videos you are offering would indeed be nice. Perhaps, if you feel like it, somewhere (at least in the YouTube Description area of the video) also include at least a little bit of written documentation to accompany the videos. Like your parts list, measurements, etc. Or anything else...

    Xenon Cam Settings

    My apologies. I mistyped that last night, and have just corrected it. The correction is that I "did NOT have a problem picking them up" from the dropbox. Thanks again, nudnick.

    Xenon Cam Settings

    Nudnick, the Cam files you have created are fantastic! I do not have a dropbox account, but still did NOT have a problem picking them up. Thanks! P.S, Fortunately I saw a post that a new version of TPA DX11 is out, so I was able to rename the C:\Program Files...
