[QUOTE="AshleyAshes, post: 253940, member: 740"] So on Christmas Eve I was reinstalling Windows on my workstation after an SSD failed and I decided to reinstall The Pinball Arcade on Steam as well. I couldn't save changes in the settings program because I got an unhandled exception error. Want to know why? Because the program did not make a folder called C:\Users\(User name)\My Games\Pinball Arcade\ for the config file to be saved to, so it couldn't save there. Want to know what folder TPA did make instead? [B]C:\Users\(User name)\My Games\[U]Stern Pinball Arcade[/U]\[/B] ...Let me make this clear, I do not not have SPA installed, SPA has never been installed, I have never purchased SPA on Steam. Also TPA isn't writing files to the TPA folder, it is writing them to the SPA folder, except for dx11_settings.dat which it seems tow write to BOTH folders. What is this garbage that FarSight has decided to make with SPA and why are they letting it even break TPA? In addition to that, I can't seem to get portrait mode working in DX11 for TPA, only in DX9. The Steam reviews were enough to make me avoid SPA but I'm thinking now that maybe TPA has been infected by this lack of polish as well. :/ I really can't support TPA by buying more seasons if this is what FarSight is doing with the game.
