Pinball FX3 (pinballfx3)

for Batocera and Retrobat

Pinball FX 3 is a pinball simulator video game developed and published by Zen Studios and released for Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 in September 2017 and then released for the Nintendo Switch in December 2017.

Pinball FX 3 allows players to play one of several simulated pinball tables, and includes online scoreboard support for informal competition with other players. The game is aimed to provide a more engaging multiplayer experience than previous titles; the game will provide support for asynchronous competitive multiplayer options, and tournament-style play. There will be shared leaderboards and multiplayer options among platforms, although PlayStation 4 players can only compete with users playing through Steam on Windows due to Sony's initial decision to prohibit cross-platform play between its PlayStation 4 and other consoles.

The package includes:

100 tables (~10 GB)

How to install:
Drag and drop the "pinballfx3" 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.
