Pinball FX2 (pinballfx2)

for Batocera and Retrobat

 

Pinball FX 2 is a pinball video game for Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Microsoft Windows (XP and higher) and is the sequel to Pinball FX. It was developed by Zen Studios and published by Microsoft Studios. It was released on October 27, 2010, via the Xbox Live Arcade service. The game includes several new features, such as local multiplayer and the ability to tweak table settings. Players can also import all of the tables from Pinball FX they had previously purchased. The Windows 8 version of Pinball FX 2 was released on the Windows Store on October 27, 2012, two years after the original XBLA release. The game was subsequently released for other Windows platforms via Steam on May 10, 2013. Pinball FX 2 was announced for Windows Phone in February 2012. A sequel, Pinball FX 3 was released in September 2017.

The package includes:

77 tables (~7 GB)

How to install:
Drag and drop the "pinballfx2" folder into the 'roms' directory and Enjoy!

Correct functioning of the system requires execution of the last pixn-update available for the system

If when you run any of the PinballFX systems (PinballFX, PinballFX 2, PinballFX 3 or Pinball M) and you find only a few of the tables are unlocked. It could be down to a couple of things:

1. Make sure that your RetroBat folder is excluded from real-time scanning within your Anti-Virus software. Also check that it hasn't already removed or quarantined any files from those systems. If it has, restore them or copy them again from the downloaded ROMpack.

2. If you have the official Steam client installed on your machine, make sure it is NOT running when trying to run these systems. Make sure it is fully closed including from the system tray.

3. To confirm no files are missing, compare the contents of the downloaded ROMpack against what is in your /rom/system-name folder.

For those running Windows Defender, here's how to add an exclusion. I personally exclude the RetroBat folder and the folder I download the packs to:Link.
