I want the song "Ballbreaker" in the game. Maybe I should buy this game but wished for more shots in game.

So I can take a song out I don't like, and put in another song like "Shoot to Thrill" or " Dirty Deeds", and it will be perfectly integrated into the game? That's cool as hell.

Great job and great song! Makes me want to play it...

I dunno about perfectly integrated...most shots thematically correspond to their songs well. Since Rosie is just the AXE inserts, that could work...but then you still have Rosie inflating animation that goes along with that song. The multiball guitar riffs & dancing band sync with the song playing...so that would be off as well.

I think the rom hacking looks fun...and after watching that video, OMG Big Balls should have been in the game....lol....but I dunno, call me a purist...I'd rather play the game as designed.

....except for Xmen - once someone replaces all the voices, I'm totally cool with that lol

I think Shoot to Thrill fits in place of War Machine nicely. I also put Its a Long Way to the Top in place of LTBR which also works pretty well. The jackpot riffs during MB are a bit off, but not as bad as I feared, and I never notice the dancing band.
I didn't want to replace any of the Hell songs due to theme integration. I'm tempted to replace For Those About to Rock, but its probably too well integrated also.
Also, you can also change it back whenever you like.

I want to add Who Made Who and Dirty Deeds someday, but the stock song selection is actually way better than I thought it would be. I am content with it the way it is for the foreseeable future.

Nice. Yeah, I tend not to pick For Those About To Rock due to the slow start...but there's nothing more satisfying than having a long ball with that song, getting to the kick-ass part...getting into Multiball and hitting the FIRE button as they yell "FIIIRE!" in the song!

I've got the following songs changed out on mine, including the Title Strips

Old: New:
Hell ain't a bad place to be Dirty Deeds
Let there be rock Shoot to Thrill
War Machine Who Made Who

My encore song (although I'll probably never get to it is)
It's a long way to the top

On top of this, my attract radio mode has a bunch of different songs on it on the AM Dial
Girls Got Rhythm, Big Balls, Along way to the Top, Shot down in Flames, Ball Breaker...and added back the songs removed from the game, so they can still be heard in radio mode.

I wish there was a repository for these types of firmware updates

This is what I want! How do I change just the Encore song?

Well i didnt know about this at all, makes the game more desirable for me as there is one song i dont care for.

Oh please do not forget to redo the Batman voices as Xmen voices are at least tolerable

Finally someone else with Ballbreaker request in game.

Well, there kind of is one.
just not public.

And thanks for posting my modified Jukebox plastic Craig.
I managed to get the plastic a bit thicker on my last batch.
They really came out nice.

When you change out the song, what happens to the music when the ball is in the shooter lane? Normally, it only plays the first few measures of the song on a loop until you plunge the ball. Can you pick the spot where the song repeats?

Arcade/LEO is who helped me with the software modifications to my game as well as the Titlestrip plastic. BIG KUDO'S to him for this.

As for the ball being in the shooter lane. Yes, it has been modified too, so that it only plays a few riffs of the new modified songs awaiting the player to plunge the ball.

Also the game has been modified also so that the end of game, flasher attract mode sequence plays a piece of "Shoot to Thrill" that fades out as the flashers end. This modification to the game code is so much better than Let there be Rock.

GAME OVER >
"Shoot to thrill, play to kill
I got my gun at the ready, gonna fire at will
'Cause I shoot to thrill, and I'm ready to kill
I can't get enough, I can't get MY THRILL" FADE

Who is Arcade/LEO? Would he be willing to modify other people's games for a fee?

Let There Be Rock is my least favorite song on the game. If I modify it, LTBR will be the first to go.

Just send me a PM and I will answer any question you guys have about BIN files.
Any BIN file help that I give is always free. I just love helping out other people when I can.
Leon.

I do the BIN file help as well as custom plastics for the Jukebox.
These I charge for as they take quite a bit of time to set up and get printed professionally.
This is the one in my machine. Only one song different then the one I did for Hasselcastle.

Love Ac/dc now with all my favorite songs thanks to Arcade/Leon! Do you update the songs yourself Asylum?

Love it! I may add that one to mine

I'm adding this one to mine for sure....

Same here. Can't stand this song. Its a long way to the top would be a good choice I think. Don't have the time to do figure this out though.

Man this is so cool. AC/DC is the best Stern since LOTR. Mind you they are probably the only two sterns I would have.

Stern and AC/DC.... Not putting that song in the game from the start was an epic fail. Everyone who knows music and heres I have an AC/DC pin asks if Big Balls is in the game. I have to lower my head, shake it, look them in the eyes and tell them, no but Rock and Roll Train is. ???

Wow really? That's my favorite, I love playing pinball to that song when it gets going in the middle.

I guess I'm the only one who actually likes the songs as they are. I love War Machine as a mode song, not super crazy about it outside of the game, but sometimes not so good songs make good pinball music, and vice versa. Rock n Roll train is my least favorite, but given the left ramp theme, it's har dto remove it, and in the game, it fits with everything.

I STILLLLL firmly believe Big Balls HAS to be in this machine somewhere in a later code update. How an ACDC pinball machine and the song Big Balls cannot be together is beyond me.

Great. Thanks for the Macro.

Here is a question: Do you (or anyone else) have a list of which request number (under the Sound System tab) corresponds to which song played in-game? There seem to be duplicate request numbers for the same song. Do you import the same .wav for each or how does that work?

See the 'Bookmark' section in the Pinball Browser OP and the ACD165LE.DAT file here

[EDIT] ACD165LE.DAT can also be downloaded here

More info about the "sound requests" and "sound fragments" here

Very good !
I strongly encourage the use of Pinball Browser macros (and not sharing bin files) and this is the first time I see someone using them here
