BUG REPORT :

- Crash multiple time this morning, like 4. Playing on Nintendo Switch. Playing Fish Tales, Classic Tournament setup, and tried this time VIEW 2. Dont know if its related to 2nd view, or related to classic mode and only fish tales ( played a lot of single player mode with view 1w with no crashes like that). 2 time it crash when i press the launch button on 3rd ball a bit before time to launch it, 2 time my controllers freeze, left flipper stay up, nothing was responding, had to quit the application everytime.

The launch button shifts up, the right stick down shifts down. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks! Will you guys work on something to replace that in the future?

To Shift Up, you press the Auto Launch button (B button on Switch). The manual launch (right stick down) is the down shift.

Also, as mentioned above me "BS" means Bonus Score in video mode. In real pinball, the ball saver feature is only designed to save a freshly launched ball. It's rarely (if ever) given to you as an award like Zen's original tables do.

Oh! Thats good to know. Thanks!

BS in video mode does not mean ball save, it means "BIG SCORE", and it does give you the points.

In Fish Tales, when you get the Ball Save as a reward in video mode, it does not apply to the game.

Hello, i noticed a bug on my pincab with pinballfx3
I only play the williams tables

If i play many pinball games for a long time, there is not problem.
But if a game becomes long (usually doing my highscores ) the game suddenly slow down as if the processeur was at 100%
(looking at the task manager seems it goes above 85/90% usage, no saturation problem with ram or ssd)
I did'nt noticed a particular case when this happens (single ball, multiball ... )
I saw that on Fish tales (when i came above 500 Millions pts ) and gateway (more then 300 millions points)
If i hit esc and go back to the menu, nothing change, even the menu is slow.
I have to leave the game complety and laucnh it again, then all works fine untill the next long game.

I use 2 screens 1050*1680, dmd on second screen (1280*1024), a jpeg for backglass
My pincab specs, core quad 9550, 8gb ddr3 ram, gtx 760, ssd 160gb
I had the same problem before i format it recently (windows 7 to windows 10)
Changed too a joywarrior controleur for xbox360 controler, same problem.

thanks for reading

Hi
First of all thanks for the great work on WMS Tables

I found a BUG during multiplayer game, the app become unresponsive when we try to quit with Alt+F4 or kill command (OK with Windows task manager if we can get to it).

Platform : Steam / Win 10
PFX3 version : 17 (09 OCT 2018)
Tables : All WMS (the only pack I own ...)
Cabinet Version : Enabled

What I do to reproduce the bug :
- launch the game via Steam, select a Hotseat game via the menu and try to force quit (via Alt+F4, OK when I quit via menu)
- launch the game with PinballX/Y with the "-hotseat_2" parameter and try to force quit (via frontend with ESC or Alt+F4)
- launch the game with CMD with the "-hotseat_2" parameter and try to force quit.

No issue with "-class" parameter nor with "-offline" parameter ... only when I use the -hotseat_"


BTW is there a list of the command line parameter we can use ?

Any news here ? There seems to been some kind of memory leak that prevent PF3 to quit properly in this precise mode that needs to be fixed

your ball number doesn't change when playing an extra ball.

so until it goes up you can't get any more after the five.

once you can get to ball 2, then you are allowed 5 more extra balls. they don't all have to be before you lose one.

I noticed on Medieval Madness there's no extra ball after getting 28 Million, on TPA there was. Not sure if this was something TPA added themselves or was an actual thing on the real table. I also remember getting a REPLAY award. Even thought there pointless, I still remember them popping up and having a DMD animation in TPA but haven't seen it in FX3 yet.

I've checked this out. It's 5 extraballs per ball, a maximum of 15 extraballs per game..

So you can't get extra balls while playing with an extra ball? Only with 'normal' balls?

[zaphod77]

there are three types of limits.
extra balls stacked, extra balls per ball in play, and extra balls per game.

for later williams games, the second one is very common.

as for tilting, i would have left the tilt on and accept that this ruins your challenge, but i understand the reasoning.

[Tarek Oberdieck]

Yeah, 5 per game is the maximum so maybe you already had that much when you don't get another one?
