Jodannar Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Now that I have feedback working in my cabinet, there are times at which I/my wife would like the force feedback solenoids disabled. I understand this could be done via software or hardware. Hardware- insert a switch to the power supply controlling the feedback board and solenoids Software - alternate config files that are swapped in and out. I've only found hyper spin solutions for the latter. Is anyone doing this elegantly through pinballx nowadays? Can you share your methods?

Content Provider arngrim Posted June 7, 2016 Content Provider Share Posted June 7, 2016 you could add a system in pbx which is a clone of another, by using symbolic links for an alternate folder, and have an ahk related to it that swaps the ini files, just an idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jodannar Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 So I would define a system in PinballX, which launches the ahk script (defined as a table in pinballx) to move and rename the dof config file?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider arngrim Posted June 7, 2016 Content Provider Share Posted June 7, 2016 yes, can't see a better way software wise myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Content Provider arngrim Posted June 7, 2016 Content Provider Share Posted June 7, 2016 or ask tspeirs to have the feature into pbx, be able to switch ini with a button before entering a table Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gech Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Or use a kl25z as a ledwiz (pinscape controller) which has the nighmode option included. It can be assigned to an hard button for fast sweep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rambo3 Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Just did a software-approach to this in DOF. Currently using it for shutting off contactors, and adjusting Teensy brightness output to 30%. Been testing it for a few months now, check if out if you're feelin' lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
