      @brunin 1) remove the link to the rom!!! This is not allowed here!!!
      2) no pro Pinball for PSX work with the current version of the emulator. No way to make them work.

          Hi has any progress been made on getting the pro pinball series games to work with lr-pscx-rearmed? Seems odd they don’t work. But I tried today and black screen. Rest of PSX games work.

            I know this is probably not the answer you're looking for, but it looks like it's working with Dosbox.

              @Brigane yeah that looks like a big headache; I saw that. It’s for a bar top so I don’t want to mess with dos box but thank you.

                "Pro"-Tip for the Future: "Pro Pinball Trilogy" for the Dreamcast might run pretty well with the upcoming Retropie5.0 for the Raspberry Pi4 ;)

                  @sirhenrythe5th thanks yes that would be nice. I find it odd with so many compatible games for the psx and so many years the emulator has been out that there is some glitch with this series. Also virtual pool 3 didn’t work either. But then again I have absolutely no idea how folks create these emulators in the first place so hats off to them, there must be a good reason. Was just hoping someone had found an answer in the meantime, but I guess not.

                    Has anyone tried running pro pinball on a pi 4 with the dynarec turned off?

                      @quicksilver hi so actually you wound up helping me in another way. I was googling around on my infinite quest to get pro pinball working on my pi3b+ without using dosbox and stumbled upon our old working Dreamcast games thread in which you at one point noted you got pro pinball trilogy working as long as you used lr-reicast not standalone and hit the start key at the first developer logo . Don’t you know - you were right I tried that and it worked!!!! Did not work on standalone just like your experience and yes, exactly like you said if you press start on the first developer logo it gets by a freeze. Also, just like you said in the thread if you turn off div-matching as an option just for this game it works, because otherwise the ball is invisible! And it works really nicely for me on my pi 3b+ overclocked and fan cooled. I don’t notice any issues with sound or slowdown. One other nit is that for my setup for some reason the flipper trigger buttons were mid-assigned but I was able to fix that in the retro arch controls menu and save it as a game only configuration. Wow, thank you so much for posting back them... the games are really cool and now I can have this on my Bartop! (I was really trying to scratch the pinball itch once I saw that Walmart is selling a 3/4 size virtual pinball table ...crisis of me buying a product that probably will have a lot of flaws avoided).

                        @BJRetro I hope once the pi 4 is fully supported this game works well on Dreamcast without the current work around. It's a shame it has issues for Dreamcast, dosbox and psx.
