Backglass (cabinet mode) not working after April 17th update

Pinball FX3 tries to find the image but can't and as far as I can see there is an extra [] in the path to the image that should not be there D:\\steamdir\steamapps\common\Pinball FX3\Data:\imagename.[bmp,gif,png,jpg,jpeg] After the \Data there is a [] that should not be there which is probably causing this ( tried looking if this was something in registry or config file but could not find it )

In the table select menu the path changes and the [] is placed after the imagename[].png
D:\\steamdir\steamapps\common\Pinball FX3\imagename:.[bmp,gif,png,jpg,jpeg]

Why would they want to change the filenames after all this time?

I don't think they are changing filenames, it appears to be a bug. You can not create a path with a : in it ... colon is not a vaild character in a path name. Yet FX3 is looking for a path with a colon in it ... which can not exist, therefore its not working

Well that too. =) I also seem to be missing Rogue One now and I can't figure out the names of the new Star Wars table. Although there are 2 thing called Spacebear1 and Spacebear2.

also ... the update created a Steam folder inside the data folder and threw all the backgalss files in there. Back glass files before update were on the root of data folder.
