Cabinet button mapping - need help please

[GCS2000]

So I have x360ce installed and have mapped buttons in order to use FX3 in cabinet mode (for the most part).

However I have issues that I cannot resolve.

I am using zebsboards plunger kit for a controller.


My main issue is that tables are telling me to press launch to start table well I am pressing the button I have for launch purposes with no luck - it doesn't work (button chosen is my launch ball button). This is button registers in the x360ce utility just fine.

Additionally if I have x360ce installed and running when FX3 starts my keyboard controls only partly work. Meaning I can navigate around with the keyboard ok and exit out but once again ENTER (i.e. launch) does not work. Very weird issue.

Any ideas?


Also I read a lot of people have this all working just fine but its very hit or miss for me. Anyone care to post exactly how their buttons are mapped for 360ce?

TIA

Greg, I was having the same type of issues when I was trying to use x360ce. I could never get it to work correctly. I decided to purchase xpadder. Let me tell you it was the BEST decision. The software is super easy to use. It runs on startup and loads the profile (key mapping) I setup for FX3.

Another cool feature... it gives you a graphical interface where you can drag and drop your buttons to mimic your cabinet buttons layout. Its very easy to setup and I have not had one issue with it. Well worth the $10.

Hi Greg,

I also have a standard Zebsboards kit V2 and I'm having the same problem as you!

I've lost weeks and days of sleep and nothing to get the analog plunger to work.

I have updated all necessary programs for the correct operation of x360ce. I have net framework 3.5 enabled. I have updated version 4.7, and directx and C ++ 2013 and other versions are all installed.

I updated the Zeb's plunger firmware for v2.4 keyboard.
Run x360ce from "c:/program files (x86)/steam/steamapps/common/pinball fx3" directory
I configured the executable in control 1, clicked auto and saved and started FX3 and I do not have the launch plunger in operation.
The buttons work normally but plunger I can not make it work!
I made other attempts at the settings and not to avail.

I tried to make new tests by modifying the firmware for gamepad v2.3 again.
In this firmware I was able to get results with nudge when I nudged my pincab.
It happens that the buttons only worked through the FX3 menu. When I start the table do not work!

I tried to modify the buttons in both firmwares in the option of controls in FX3, but without success.

My problems are very similar to yours...

In fact I can play without x360ce but without the nudge function and the analog plunger. But I really want to see this working properly.

I see that many people who own the plunger of zebsboards are getting to use the analog plunger and nudge with FX3, but I honestly do not know what else to do.

Did you get any news these days?

I'm looking for new directions.

Well, I need to make it work so I can configure Pinup popper.

Any help is welcome!

Cheers!
