Not for nothing. Hopefully you learned something in the process of doing it such that in the future you'll have a better idea of how to fix it in the future. I'll have to check out the new beta build and see if it works for me too.

I'm keeping it online because I like comparing my score and other people's scores to the highest scores in the world. Although I do think some of those people cheat (getting billions of points), but getting a score in the top 100 is pretty thrilling. Plus, Steam has other features like streaming gameplay and the cloud save makes sure all the data will not be lost. Finally, Pinball FX3 promises to have more online functionality and stuff. So I figure I should keep the same set up to be compatible with Pinball FX3.

Has anyone tried that yet? Also, Steam support said to post all your concerns here: https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/10/ I assume if enough people complain they will take a look at it. Or not, who knows.

I see you don't know. The "niche feature request" isn't related to this. I've been asking for it, along with other users, for nearly a year. Some ability to disable or customize the automatic key presses when loading Pinball FX2 / Pinball Arcade would be helpful to a huge number of people (see: Carny_Priest's comment), not just me. Also, I've never been abusive. Maybe aggressive, but that's the extent of it.

Yay for more toxicity. PinballX cost me nothing directly (although a lot in time), but I don't even really use it. This is all for others.
-
That has nothing to do with Steam giving an error message or ways around it. But okay, call me names when you don't understand what is going on.
-
Why? It is based due to an update on Steam and has no relevance to PinballX functionality. If Tom added the ability to remove or customize inputs sent from PinballX based on selection, like I've been asking for almost a year, we would already have a work around. We could have PinballX load a game, say Pinball FX2, and then based on the selection it would automatically send key presses to select the correct game. Completely working around Steam's change. But again no one listens... oh well.
-
Steam customer support directed me to this post as a potential work around and passed my message on to the right department. https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/458604254465948374/?ctp=4#c1458455461489248764 I don't have time to test that at the moment or to see if it would even work with PinballX, but figured I'd pass it on. Hopefully Steam comes up with a way to disable the message in the settings soon.
-
As I've explained before in the Requested Feature post, I ran into a lot more issues using Other System than I did simply ignoring the automatic key presses. Maybe I'll have to do that with the new bug and just hope it doesn't mess up more. But when it was launching tables it wouldn't format properly and wouldn't allow Autohot Key commands or other stuff.
-
You probably installed them in a non-default directory and it can't find them. I had that issue when I installed Steam and/or Pinball FX2 in a different directory than normal.
-
Another problem is it is really difficult to launch games from PinballX to just default Pinball FX2 or Pinball Arcade itself due to the automatic key inputs it sends. I've asked for that to be removed or an ability to manually edit it specifically in case this happened... but no luck with that change.
-
I think it is related to Steam and an update from that. Apparently it is happening to a lot of users now after the release of ARK: Survival Evolved. I contacted support to see if they could come up with a solution or maybe pass it up for an option in the settings to disable it. But I've yet to get a solid answer.
