this app is fantastic
but with the rumours of a new operating system for stern games wondering how this might affect pinball browser.
Quoted from oga83:I have to warn you all that one day will come where it won't be possible to adjust PB and you won't be able to customize your games anymore. To prevent that, I suggest that
all of you write to Stern
about this unnecessary actions against PB. I would like to work with them! At a minimum, I need to understand what their issue is with a customer modifying their own machine. If a person buys a Ford, does Ford make all the bolts in the car tamperproof so you can't swap out a part? Is there some licensing issue that we don't understand?
Hopefully, they will engage directly with us on this.
Suspect it's a licensing issue.
Some IP owners require the licensees to take all action to protect and secure IP such that the product is only the approved product and can't be modified or that any artefacts they provide are kept secure, it could be this makes them take this action.

Quoted from CrazyLevi:I’d imagine that when Stern brokers a licensing deal with Iron Maiden, Iron Maiden expects Iron Maiden music to play from the Iron Maiden pinball machine. Instead of some disco bullshit
man that's the saddest thing of this whole affair. Learning that Levi doesn't like disco music
(agree with your other points btw).
can't say I'm surprised although when I downloaded the code this morning that EULA wasn't there! The only thing that surprises me is that this is taken them so long.
Not sure they will have much luck retrospectively applying this but for future games or features beyond the original game specification then we won't have much of a choice but to agree to it. It's a bit of shame really, the mod world in software has contributed billions to the video gaming industry.
