Can anybody explain the difference of Home Play vs Factory settings in installs? Is one easier than the other ? Differences in game play ?

I think you can set those settings within in either of those "installs" ? I guess I'm asking what is the difference of the game installs ...
In the Installs menu you can select :
Directors Cut
Home Play
Novelty
Add A Ball
Factory
The little blurb in the manual says programming varies and is subject to change after each version listed.
I was wondering in generalities what the main difference is between a game with Home Play install selected vs Factory install.
Is one easier to play than the other ? etc.
I updated code on my Metallica recently. In the install menu I set the game to Home Play.
The game was still Match active. Credits instead of free play - I had to go in to standard adjustment menu and put it into free play - etc.
The game does not give you extra balls instead of credits either by selecting Home Play in installs.
So I guess I'm still looking for answers.... Installs do appear to be different function than the standard adjustments in the menus.
Installs don't appear to change standard adjustments - perhaps Installs might change some difficulty factors within the Features adjustments ??
Quoted from NoQuarters:Installs don't appear to change standard adjustments
This is a logical leap.
What we have here is a case where this particular install isn't changing standard adjustments, or at least the ones that would be expected to be changed. I suspect it's just not programmed to do anything on this game. You're going to have to go into SPI (or Advanced or Game or whatever they're called) adjustments and go back and forth to see if this install does anything. Based on what you wrote, I doubt it does.
