[Setting up Pinball FX3 to launch directly into tables]

You would log in to your cabinet via Steam and install since they are tied to your Steam login account.  You have to have Steam up for FX3 to work if you have the Steam version.  You cannot "export" them without hackery. 

Ahh B*gger !! ... I did find this on Zen Studio's Website, but I guess I still need to get the game on there in the first instance, to use offline mode

[Setting up Pinball FX3 to launch directly into tables]

Hi Guys, sorry for the noob questions here, im still getting my head around the whole BigBox / LaunchBox thing ..
I have a freestanding ardace cab, running on Windows that is not connected to the internet, because of its location, external network access isnt possible. However, I would like to install pinball tables that I have on my laptop (stream account) .. Is there a way of exporting them from stream to a USB and then importing them into Bigbox? (either export / import or copy file system ?)

There is an FX2 system installed, butthe games im looking at specifically are on FX3 ?

If you're on 11.8 you should be good to just grab the latest installer and run it over your current install. You won't lose any data during the upgrade installation.

Brilliant, thankyou for the confirmation.
I need to email details of the licenses, and maybe go down the route of getting my own forever license for the cab while im at it

You may want to find out whether you have a regular license or a forever-updates license, before going through the process of upgrading. The vendor would have had to purchase a license just for you, as there's no such thing as a vendor specific license. If you have any questions about your license, you can reach out to support@unbrokensoftware.com

Thanks, Ill do that. Ill be honest, the cost of the licenses is not a show stopper anyway, so it may be easier in the long run, as I intend to develop and tweek the cab further to purchase my own forever license

Hi Folks, I wonder if you can help me ?

I have an arcade cab that is running a licensed version of Bigbox .. Ver11.8 on a system that was "purchased" from a vendor.

I have discussed upgrading with them, but they have no plans to go through testing and to guaragtee the upgrades.

I would like to upgrade to the latest version, but obviously donot want to loose anything that is currently installed, as the system is working great.

 

is there a progressive upgrade path I should follow ? or should I just install the latest version ?
