Is there any way to get a Steam shortcut to launch the DX11 version directly?

[QUOTE="Epsilon, post: 209946, member: 381"] Yeah, this is what I was wondering too. It almost makes me think that the steam ID for the game is somehow tied to the DX9 executable so any shortcut using the steam:// namespace defaults to that one. Even if I could just get the shortcut to force the same menu, I could live with that, but I don't want to have to launch from Steam itself because I have a whole separate and more elegant front-end for that (but unfortunately it operates on shortcuts which is where the problem currently lies.) EDIT: I also briefly thought about changing the name of the .exe for the PinballArcade11 to try and "trick" it into running the one I wanted, but decided against it because it would probably screw up the automatic updates. Sounds like that wouldn't have worked anyway since apparently even a direct shortcut to "PinballArcade11" still runs DX9? [/QUOTE]
