For those like me using AltRunMode in PinUp Popper to launch Pinball FX3 games in local multiplayer Hot Seat modes, I created these Wheel Images.

Enjoy!

Where do you put these?

Any chance you could post your launch script And after you posted, Highlighted Then go up to format click code

Sure…  I simply followed the instructions here.

I put my Wheel Images in popmedia\default\system and named them the exact same as my intended AltRunMode names. In my case I prefer Classic mode as single player, then instead of “Hot Seat” I prefer “2Players,” “3Players,” and “4Players” so my launch script looks similar to the instructions on the above page except for the cosmetic changes to the names that I prefer. So my launch script includes the following:

SET ALTPARAM=-class

if "[ALTMODE]"=="2Players" (SET ALTPARAM=-hotseat_2 )

if "[ALTMODE]"=="3Players" (SET ALTPARAM=-hotseat_3 )

if "[ALTMODE]"=="4Players" (SET ALTPARAM=-hotseat_4 )

And ultimately: START "" "[DIREMU]\steam.exe" -applaunch 442120 %ALTPARAM% -table_[GAMENAME]

Obviously you can go ahead and name the images and your parameters to your liking.

In Global Settings–>Script I added useAltWheels=1

In PinUp Menu, for each PFX3 table, I set the Alternate Run Mode field to 2Players,3Players,4Players

Then instead of launching the table like you normally might, you go into the Menu Select instead to select your AltRunMode. The result? Instead of an awkward “Oh, hold on… Let me get it into multiplayer mode.” and you whip out a keyboard and totally shatter the pinball table illusion… You get a very fluid playing experience, as seen below:

Old post but what if I wanted to have an option to have classic be available to more than one player as well so in other words I want both options, classic and hotseat to be able to select multiple players. Thanks!

I came across this

"[ALTMODE]"=="hotseat2c" (SET ALTPARAM=-class -hotseat_2 )
