Currently (physically) rebuilding my pincab to correct all the mistakes an omissions from my first attempt so cant test out V 2 but THANK YOU for making this. Memories flooding back. Like that it seems to work for the "ultra" edition of Timeshock!

Just to be clear, it doesn't work at all with the Ultra Edition of Timeshock! (it's not needed, this game features a built-in cabinet view)

Only the old windows version of Timeshock (1997) is supported: CD 1.07 & 1.20 (w/o no-cd) or GOG (1.07)

Yeah, I only have the GOG Timeshock myself because it was actually cheaper to buy all three together as a package than just the two I wanted, I run the Ultra on the cabinet specifically because it supports the cabinet mode.

1st of all - great work 👍 tried to run ProPinball but wasn‘t a pleasure to play in Landscape on 32“ 😂

 

some issues with Timeshock …

 

Timeshock in Landscape-Mode (pure) is starting well

TimeShock launched via Launcher closes to Windows, maybe there is a hint or solution.

By landscape do you mean desktop?

If yes there is a desktop function to activate in reshade.ini

Many pincabs have the playfield screen in landscape mode (like mine ;) ) so the display can't be used to define the desktop mode

To play in desktop mode you have to set it with "Desktop=1" in reshade.ini

With the old cd version ? because the launcher will run your "timeshock!.exe" and if it's the CD version you will need the CD in drive or the iso to be mounted or it will close ;)

You can also put a no-cd version 1.07 or 1.20 instead (named timeshock!.exe) but in this case you won't get the bgm and it would be a shame because the music in this game is excellent.

New version 3.2 available :)

 

This new version features some big changes in the shader (I hope nothing will be broken...)

Now the DMD can be displayed everywhere even over the backglass if you have a 16:9 one.

The POV is improved with better perspective (the ball will be less ovale and the proportions will be better)

it can be set as you want (TablePOV_factor) 0.25 is set as default for the 6 pinball games (for me it's good but you can change in ReSahde's UI with home key).

The DMD can now be set again to transparent/intelligent with ProPinball games and single screen config or with KeepTableDMD

 

 

Here a comparaison with and without the new POV setting

 

New  (TablePOV_factor is set at default 0.25)        /         Old  (TablePOV_factor is set at 0.00)

Enjoy :)

is there an easy way to include these tables to a frontend e.g. PinupPopper?

mounting / unmounting images is my problem.

most frontend allow to send a command before launch so it's easy to do.

(there is a hidden mounting option included but only with DaemonTool Lite)

- DMD export (backglass or 3rd screen)

- Desktop or Pincab view

Sry it seems that i am too noobie :D
Had using the old Version PinCabView2D_3.0

C:\vpinball\PinCabView2D_3.0

and i copied pinballdreams to C:\vpinball\PinCabView2D_3.0\DreamsDx

I made batchfiles to launch:

 

C:\vpinball\PinCabView2D_3.0\PinCabView2D_Launcher.exe DREAMSDX 3

 

But now updated to Version 4, I copied DreamDX again into main folder and startet batch
C:\vpinball\PinCabView_4.0\PinCabView_Launcher.exe DREAMSDX 3

 

but I get the error message
image.png.43306444865ca2198ab5c9a2af7dc56f.png

 

How can I run Pinball Dreams/Fantasies etc.?

Seems like you made a confusion:

There are 3 packs

1/- PinCabView (now in version 4.0) for Pro Pinball, Addiction Pinball and SlamTilt Resurrection games.

2/- PnCabView2D (now in version 3.0) for old DOS "pinball Dreams like" games (and also for Slamtilt)

3/- PinCabViewWFS (now in version 2.0) for WildFire Studios old pinball games.

 

Here you are trying to launch Pinball Dreams Dx (an old DOS pinball game) with PinCabView (1/-) and for sure this isn't the good pack for this game :)

Just delete your old CabView/PinCabview/PinCabView folders and launchers and put the new PinCabView2D pack (3.0) instead and it should work again ;)

try with this one :

I really do prefer to play it on the cabinet)... except PinUp Popper won't quit it and return to the menu when I press the 'Q' key, so I suspect that the Pro Pinball packages are intercepting the keypresses and not passing them on to other software.

 

A "fast" solution will be to edit the close script like this:

 

"[STARTDIR]LAUNCH\PUPCLOSER.EXE" WINTIT "[CUSTOM1]" 4 1
taskkill /f /im "PinCabView_Launcher.exe"
taskkill /f /im "BigRaceUSA.exe"
taskkill /f /im "FantasticJourney.exe"
