      When launching MOTU and STLE from Popper I’m unable to start the games as “1” and “5” are disabled (playfield loses focus). Other PUP pack tables work fine but these two are both using Ultra DMD. Seems as though focus is potentially remaining on the DMD and not going back to the playfield.

      I’ve followed the advise on Nailbuster’s wiki and amended the launch (and exit) scripts as follows:

      Launch

      START “” “[STARTDIR]Launch\VPXSTARTER.exe” 30 15 60 “Visual Pinball Player” 3 0 5

      Close

      “[STARTDIR]LAUNCH\PUPCLOSER.EXE” WINTIT “Visual Pinball” 15 1
      taskkill /f /im “ultradmd.exe”

       

      Additionally, both tables behave absolutely fine when launched directly from VPX. Just not when launched from Popper.

      I’m running in Exclusive mode (not windowed).

      Please help Obi-wan.

        the last digit 5 will tell it to press the mouse so keep that #.

        the 3 number is the # of seconds after its loaded to press it, so if you need more than 3 seconds you can increase that 3.

        What happens if you set 3 to like 20 or 30?  Start with a big # and lower it.

          No dice unfortunately. Tried with 30 0 5 and 20 0 5 without any apparent change. However the second I clicked the LMB after that focus came straight back and normal service resumed.

            @outhere has a solution that works.  I can’t find his post but see if he sees this:

                Great – that worked like a charm! Thanks.
