[QUOTE="StarDust4Ever, post: 240575, member: 3033"] Another not so minor annoyance. I just purchased Scared Stiff Pro mode on my Wii-U, and the danged thing doesn't save your settings when you exit. If I back up to the table selection menu, then reenter Scared Stiff, PRO mode is disabled. I have to manually reenable PRO mode, open the operator door, Goto A, 2, scroll backwards until I hit "family mode", and turn it off. The "factory default" indicator is not illuminated with the default setting of on so in fact the operator menu is not stock in the game. I also kinda like turning on the "boogie dancers" option (immediately following family mode on the menu) though it is disabled according to factory specs. Stupid thing TPA does not remember my operator settings upon exit of the table so I have to manually enter the operator mode every time I wish to use uncensored. My high scores are remembered however, despite accidentally reseting them once. The game only appears to record the high score when you post your initials, so if you accidentally delete the high score table by hitting the shiny red reset button, DO NOT PLAY A GAME and immediately exit the table so your scores will not get overwritten. I was having so much fun playing uncensored that I scored a 21 million followed by 20 million. I input "SEX" instead of my regular initials when using uncensored mode, and both scores are visible along side the paltry 6 million I entered playing the normal table using my real initials "AJW." I used to play on the Ouya a couple years back and TPA used to remember PRO mode and the operator settings when I exited SS. Upon my return, PRO mode and uncensored settings were still active. Then at some point Farsight updated the app so that it defaulted to PRO mode off every time I played. = = = = = = = Also one other question are there any secret features in Xenon's operator menu I might need to know about? I'm kind of an "art appreciator" as well as a pinball connoisseur so I may purchase PRO mode on the Xenon table just to get an unobstructed view of the playfield and backglass. :o EDIT: Just a few DIP switches. Keeping it old school... = = = = = = = Another thing, there is no way Farsight is running unmodified ROMs. I watched the entire DMD demo on Scared Stiff. At the very end of the sequence before it loops, there's a message "Questions? comments? Like us on Facebook." Followed by a second splash screen, "The Pinball Arcade is now open." Maybe it's just me, but I don't see how it is possible to inject splash screens into the DMD unless they made edits to the ROM. EDIT: Mideval Madness has a similar splash screen for Facebook and another with url to the pinball arcade site. [/QUOTE]
