Future Pinball

Post by Bladeforce »

Hi, I have a strange problem with future pinball.

It is installed fine and everything runs great when launching the editor > load game into it > run game

Problem is when i run a table from the command line with

Future Pinball.exe /open "\Tables\BTTF.fpt" /play /exit

for example the editor loads the game, then future pinball loads it's stuff and runs but the keyboard doesn't work, you cant enter anything 5 (Insert coin) does nothing

It seems to be losing focus but playing the windows decorator in options doesn't work neither does running it in a window and clicking it with the mouse

Now I have read on a forum that Future Pinball needs to be run as administrator, which could be why.

Can anyone shed some light on what it could be please?

Wine version? If it's not 1.6, upgrade. If it is 1.6, post terminal output. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log

It is using version 1.2.2. I understand it is old but using any version after even 1.6 makes it crash instantly, editor doesn't even load

Actually an update, i got it running in the latest wine but the playfields are totally missing but anyway the command line still doesn't take keyboard input after loading. I am currently seeing if it is a problem with future pinball first so will update :)
