I have some feedback after playing for a bit
The game seems to be really lacking in options, I like the idea of the pop up scores, but there's no option to make them smaller, or change opacity, or maybe even have them appear on the side of the screen instead of in the middle of the action.

Am I blind? I cant find the option to turn off the extra 3D models, they are fun for the tables that do not exist in reality, but for tables like the Williams ones, if these tables are really supposed to be a recreation or 'simulation' of the real life tables then we need an option to remove the extra 3D, I'm pretty sure the Adams Family table isn't supposed to have a golf club and Thing floating above the table.

I guess i need to keep FX3 installed if i want to play the star wars tables I already paid for, or is there some way to transfer those to this new game? Which seems like I would need to keep 3 games installed if I wanted to play tables like Borderlands and Battlestar, and then FX3 for tables like Walking Dead or Portal, and then a 3rd game if I want to play the System Shock or The Thing tables, is that right?

1) That's also something I'd like to see in the future.

2) You should find that option in your Controls -- titled "Williams Pinball Visual Extras", mapped depending on which method of control you use.

3) There is no way to transfer, but know that the FX3 and FX variants don't play the same way. There is a Legacy Bundle for each Star Wars pack available. If you wait for a seasonal discount, they're a little under $2 per pack, rough estimate. The total would be about $10 for 19 tables.

Example: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/31851/

EDIT: Huh. Now that I think about it, I wonder if removing FX3 files the same way as FX2, reading from another thread, would help.

I think what happened with FX2 -> FX3 is that they offered users the option to move tables over from FX2 to FX3. But once you did, they were no longer showing s "owned" in FX2, but they were still there.

You sure about that?
