Quoted from CaptainNeo:so does the newest version of this code include the choice between Alien and Aliens movies?
All versions of the code have the choice as standard, selectable by left or right flipper at the beginning of the game.

Quoted from Nethawk86:anyone have the procedure saved to do a fresh install? I've got lots of little bugs going on and thinking it needs a fresh install but cant remember what to do.
Edit: Found it. Had to use an archive website to go back to Weir's years ago to get a snapshot of the page before he took it down.
Here it is for anyone else thats needing it. PB does not have HWP instructions and I am not sure if their software will work on ours.

Can someone send me a link to the Alien image software for machine recovery? Finally getting around to doing a completely fresh install on a new SSD. Have the links to 1.2 and the 1.4 upgrade, but not to the 1.02 recovery image.
Happy to be corrected if that’s not needed; just following the archived instructions for new recovery install from a few posts ago.

I wrongly assumed Heighway used SSD’s like many modern pins. Was going to do a fresh install of 1.02 on a completely new drive, then later on 1.2 and 1.4 updates. Was surprised when I opened her up and could not easily find the hard drive on the CPU.
any ideas?
