Is anyone planning to make an Alien Poker backglass?
What does it mean when the FIRST PLAYER Million place digit alternates back and forth from 0 to 1 in attract mode on AP?

I think it's showing you high score,if you haven't gone over a million yet. Older games would have a pre-determined high score until someone beat it.

Don't know much about a SYSTEM 6.
All the other players show all Zeros and don't alternate, just the First Player Million digit.
I might just do a Factory Default reset and see.
It's been on cpr to do list for a few years but after asking stu about it sounds like it's on hold or on back burner.
Hopefully it will get done soon
Bgresto I'm sure is nice but I think the mirroring is a must on this title
Good luck with this one..Great game..hard to find that bad boy.. Mine exploded on me one day into a trillion pieces. Was able to track one down from a guy in Texas.. Cost me $150 total to ship. Another guy wanted me to buy the whole game just for the back glass.
If someone made these again..I would buy one..even though I no longer own the game.
Quoted from Gnatty:Alien poker is a system 7
IPDB.COM shows it as a Williams System 6A.

Thanks for the reply.
It was doing it because I did a factory reset I reckon.
They sure made a few..6000 of them.My backglass was sealed with some sort of clear epoxy when I got it.
BTW, I finally got the speech module working during the game. Now the KING and ACE drop targets
won't reset when hit out of order. Also when they are all dropped now, they won't reset during the ball.
It will reset for the next player and duplicate the same behaviour. All the wires are connected underneath.
I think someone already had a post about this here so I'll search.
I finally gave up looking for one especially since this is not a sought after pin (although I love mine).
I bought my AP just to see if I could do a complete restore. My glass was trashed so I scanned the whole thing (in pieces) stitched it together and cleaned up the artwork as best I could. I learned Photoshop on the fly...lol. I then had it printed on trans-light material and attached it to glass like the newer pins. Good enough for me. It looks a little dark when powered off, but when on it looks great.
This is what I started with.

And yes, it's the same machine as the first picture.......
Nice job!!
Quoted from MarchAFB:Very Bad.
that is about average for an AP BG. I have had 4 (I think) BGs and this is better than some, and bout the same as some, I fixed one similar for my game...PF and Cab been done for awhile (just no time) Gotta get it put back together and up so I can play it. Fun game!

AP is a system 6. You must be confusing it with Laser Cue which is a system 7, basically same PF layout just pool theme instead of poker. Also a fun game!!
