Just want to say thanks for the Pinball FX Care Package :)

Incase you didn't know you have until 9th April to pick this up - 9 tables for free!

Thanks Zen Studios :)

So I changed my config slightly.

I no longer use JoyToKey and instead use Steam's Big Box Mode. This mode has some excellent controller configuration settings. Steam recognises my cabinet as a...

Welcome Linne :)

Well done :)

I created most of my backglasses from the collection offered by...

Please do - I would be honoured! :)

I do want to get some graphics printed for the sides and in the future I might fit a plunger with a motion sensor for nudge - but at the moment I am extremely happy with it - here it is in action...

Finally I covered the entire cabinet in the black self adhesive film as I found this gave a better finish than painting with this wood:

Then I fitted a coin door so I could get access to the cabinet:

For the glass I decided to use perspex / Plexiglas as this is easier to work with. I got a 5mm sheet for the main playfield and 3mm sheet for the backbox. I drilled holes for the speakers and fitted...

The backbox was next to hold the backglass and DMD monitor and speakers. This was a simple job of making a box to sit on top of the main cabinet.

Onto the legs. I wanted proper Pinball legs - so invested in 4 Stern 30.5" Legs along with the cabinet protectors.

To fit these you have to drill holes in the corners of your cabinet - and how to...

At this point I'd also like to highlight that I do not have a full workshop - the entire build was done with the following tools:

- Mac Allister MSCS1200 1200W 165mm Electric Circular Saw
- Mac...

I'd like to start by stating I am an absolute novice at this. I have no wood working skills what so ever and struggle putting up a shelf!

I built this cabinet from the wood I had from removing a...

I have finished my pinball cabinet build. Building this has been extremely enjoyable and the end result is amazing fun to play.

Here is the finished cabinet - I will detail the build below:

So below are suggested improvements which I think would really help cabinet owners:

- Have a default view for ALL tables.

- Entering scores - I would like to turn off the feature where it...

Many thanks :)

I have tried to post a number of times in the Cabinet Building section but my posts never get accepted by the moderators.

Is there something I am doing wrong?

I have just finished building my...

I have just finished building my pinball cabinet for Pinball FX3 and for the most part it works really well. I am extremely happy with it.

I will be creating a thread with the cabinet build soon...

I've tried switching views and that does not work for me. The only way I can release the ball is to nudge as the ball is triggered out of the hole.

Surely this cannot be 'by design'?

For those interested here is a video with head tracking - it looks cool :)

As stefb said - Pinball FX3 has the option to change views (default C) - set to view 1, 1w or 2 - I prefer 2 on my cabinet.

As far as head tracking - I've seen the same but I'm pretty sure Pinball...

I have only just got this table and this happens consistently. I have to quit the vast majority of games I play making this table unplayable.

This is my video - it is a video of my cabinet playing this table in Pinball FX3 - I have never played the real table!!

I have only just got this table and played it 3 times. On 2 of the three times the ball got stuck:
