Is it possible to make the launch timer configurable? or even disable it entirely? or reset the timer if you switch selection?

Thanks!

I use the launcher for multiple systems in my cabinet, but have a request.
I just created this to launch FX with paramaters

• can there be an extra parameter for the tiles, to set an image per tile (so I don't need to stick to the text, which is hard to align)
• Is it also possible to make the image of the buttons higher ? The 175x175 pixels shows very blurry .

Hello !
Thanks a lot for that launcher !
i've juste put it with Pinup Popper, and it works like a charm, but i have only one issue.
I have a kl25z input to navigate in my launcher and game on my pincab, i use x360ce to emulate à controller. No keyboard...
So your launcher only work with keybord and i had to install Joytokey only for your launcher.
Is that possible to imagine à xinput entry to your launcher ?

Thanks

Hello, i tried your launcher for PinballArcade. I have an exe called "PinballArcadeLoader.exe". This exe runs with the following command:

PinballArcadeLoader.exe "..\PinballArcadeCabinet.exe" name-of-table FixCamera=5 HIDETEXT Players=x

My ini from your launcher looks:

...

In PinballX i set the correct path/exe and in Parameters: "[TABLEFILE]" as you discribe.

When i start in PinballX a table, I get Error: could not load exe. from my "PinballArcadeLoader.exe".
But when i start your launcher as standalone with a selected table with:
PARAM="..\PinballArcadeCabinet.exe" AddamsFamily FixCamera=5 HIDETEXT Players=2
it starts....

So it means, it don´t take the [TABLEFILE] from PinballX....

P.S: I tried even with Zaccaria, the same, over PinballX it kicks me back to PinballX. But when i set in ini PARAM=-skipmenu "Aerobatics"... it starts...

And i saw in the latest release that i have, the readme is not updated with: Passthrough all commandline parameters from launching application
Fix spaced single parameters being passed as multiple parameters

It stays on Feb 19. You forgot to update it?

EDIT: Ok i got it. In the readme it was not clear to me that I can also use the STARTPARAMS= if i use the PATH= mode.
So your launcher and PinballArcadeLoader.exe must be in an subfolder within "PinballArcade (ARCOODA)" folder and the ini should look:

STARTPARAMS="..\PinballArcadeCabinet.exe"
PATH=PinballArcadeLoader.exe (it is Arcooda loader not your launcher)
...
PARAM=FixCamera=5 HIDETEXT Players=x (x= the playermode you want for the button 1...4)

And in PinballX you set Path/exe to your launcher and under Parameters: "[TABLEFILE]"
Now you can run PinballArcade (Arcooda) with Multiplayer modes...
