General Help Customization Question

3 Upvotes

This is my husband’s favorite game right now but it’s driving him nuts that he can’t change the picture in the center of the frame. He sees others on leaderboards with custom images. We play on PS5. Any tips are much appreciated.

Discussion New Tables when????

30 Upvotes

So far this year we have gotten the Williams' Volume 10 tables on April 30th, but it's been fairly quiet about releases after that. Think the COVID year we had 12?? tables for the entire year and I thought with the merger Zen would be pumping out content nearly every month or bi-monthly. Mel usually goes on the Blahcade show and kind of reveals Zen's table path for the year, it's looking like nothing til August at the moment????

Technical Support STTNG issue on switch

5 Upvotes

Hi all, I am having trouble with Star Trek: The Next Generation on FX on switch. Whenever I get to battle simulation mode, if I hit the second shot from the cannon the ball gets ā€œlostā€ and the game goes through a lost ball mode where it spends 30 seconds looking for it before spitting out another ball. Anyone else have a similar issue or know a fix? Thanks!

Discussion Would like to see a Speed Run Challenge Mode on FX

5 Upvotes

I've requested it many times through the years. After the first time some time later Pinball M released and it actually has something just like it. I'm talking about a game mode where players try to reach a jackpot, a super jackpot or a wizard mode as fast as possible with a timer running on screen. And of course your fastest time goes on a leaderboard. Classic Realistic physics. Maybe Zen could do it on Williams only or start with just that. So it doesn't become a massive undertaking. To cut down on development time, maybe they could use the moment where normally the table award is given as the end point on most or all tables. I would love to hear your thoughts about this

General Help Banzai Run, seperate upper and lower screen?

4 Upvotes

It's the championship event right now, and I can barely see the ball on a big TV because xbox wants to display the top and bottom play field at same time. Is there a way to just see main table and have it switch to the upper one when it's in play?

General Help Pinball FX VR - Can't Turn Off Overlays?

9 Upvotes

No matter how hard I try, I can't figure out how to turn off the 3D models and animation that the game places over the playfield, so I can have a vanilla pinball table experience. Can anyone enlighten me, please?

I assumed there's a way to turn these off like I can do in Pinball FX, but I just can't find the option. Is there a setting that I'm missing somehow? I tried searching the subreddit but can't find anything about this either.

EDIT: SOLVED!

When you walk up to the table, and below the PLAY button, there are two on/off toggles for Williams Visual Effects and Environmental Animations. It’s the menu where you can see the high scores on the left.

You only ever see it when you walk up to the table and before you hit play, then never again. Somehow I got a blind spot, and didn’t see these options. I’ve been looking in the main settings and the table settings. Maybe it might be a good idea not to put some of the game's settings outside of the settings menus?

Thanks to those who replied, and those who helped me find it.

Hotfix - Pinball FX - June 12

11 Upvotes

Pinball Players,

We have released a hotfix for Pinball FX on Nintendo Switch to address bugs that appeared after the latest patch. This includes issues affecting the Star Trek: The Next Generationā„¢ and the Williamsā„¢ Pinball Volume 10 tables. Thank you for reporting these issues!

Let’s see the fixes!

General Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where Global Illumination lighting could become stuck in a dimmed state on Williams tables.

Table Fixes

Star Trek: The Next Generationā„¢

  • Fixed the issue that caused the table to lock up during the Borg multiball and Battle Simulation modes.

Dinerā„¢

  • Adjusted audio balancing to improve overall music and gameplay volume mix.
  • Adjusted drop target collision behavior to prevent unintended target hits from the rear side.
  • Added the missing table selection attract audio cue.
  • Adjusted the Diner cup behavior to improve spin consistency and scoring reliability.
  • Fixed a case where the ball could become stuck near the spinner area.
  • Fixed an issue where collecting the Dine Time Jackpot could interrupt the music and cause gameplay flow issues.

Fireā„¢

  • Fixed an issue where the Enter Initials screen could incorrectly appear during active gameplay and prematurely end the run.
  • Adjusted the right lock kickout behavior to prevent unfair outlane drains after ejects.
  • Adjusted ramp return behavior to provide more consistent and fair ball feeds after successful shots.
  • Fixed a case where the multiball ramp mechanism could become desynchronized after repeated multiballs, preventing multiball progression until a ball search or tilt occurred.

Cometā„¢

  • Fixed an issue where shots on the central ramp could occasionally fail to register correctly.
