So are any of the 1up pins moddable to accept the full range of Zen tables? I just stumbled on this thread and was considering it, but not strongly due to the limits on number of tables accessible, but it appears people smarter than I subverted this?

I'll start researching this immediately. Seems like only Star Wars, Marvel (II?), and RFM, are only ones available. Less concerned about aesthetics but any hardware concerns? Latest generation equally hackable?

Thanks for the advice!

Addendum:
Didn't expect the kids to want the Attack From Mars cabinet over Marvel/Star Wars! Tracking one down...

Should one update their Attack From Mars STOCK software from Arcade1up to the 9/14/21 STOCK as per https://arcade1up.com/pages/software-updates page (which has reportedly the Whitewater fix)? Or will that mess up using A1Pinner3.1? Or are the fixes in the official Arcade1up 9/14/21 update just updates to the pin software itself, so covered already depending on the apk file?
If I'm understanding correctly, using the arcade1up pinball_wms_20210830.zip file (downloadable from their site), just updates Whitewater? Or if one already STARTS with an AfM pin, then go ahead and update from arcade1up because the WMS.apk pins are there anyway?

Are these updated config files still necessary for proper solenoid functioning on all the tables as per the post from 61 days ago?
If so, anyone know where someone could get the updated config files?
(unless these "updated config files" are merely just the MVL, WMS, SWP apks)
(or from this post 3 months ago from arcademojo which I picked up

Thank you for the response, MysteryEncoder! Very educational!

I'm not finding a link for WMS.apk on the team-encoder website, just the link to A1Pinnerv3.1 https://www.team-encoder.com/A1Pinner

But I suppose, if not worried about retaining high scores, since this is for an INITIAL install on a new AfM, I could simply update via STOCK, then use A1Pinnerv3.1 to export (DUMP) the WMS tables, making my OWN updated WMS.apk, which I would reflash A1Pinnerv3.1, installing the DUMPED WMS.apk (and MVL and SWP apks) to get to where I want to be.

Then follow Kong's instructions

for adding Zen, with the configs (generically written but titled for each Zen game to give at least a decent chance of solenoid function, and included with A1Pinnerv3.1).

Something like that I think?

Thanks, this is really very very cool. I own ALL the Zen tables on XBox, and enjoy them, but its frustrating not being to really SEE the table the way I want to, so this will take care of that.

FINALLY got my pin. Spent last night working on the build and software. Works well, except for one thing.
This is probably a rookie mistake, but the DMD only rarely shows the DMD scoreboard for the pins, usually showing a squashed copy of the main display, even on the official Arcade1Up tables.

Am I missing something as to how to enable/disable DMD scoreboard?

That makes sense with what I've been experiencing. So basically once you go to the Zen tables, you have to power cycle before returning to the Arcade1Up pins.

Thanks for the help!

I know to go to 3.9 from 3.1, one has to reinstall the individual pxp game files for Zen (and Pinball Arcade). But given that there are fortunately enough tables to get that filling the memory up becomes a real potential problem, is there an easy way to REMOVE a Zen or Pinball Arcade game, then replace it with another one?

Edit: Whoops, duh. A1Pinner already has that functionality under MANAGE TABLES. I've never used it before. Is that only the standard Zen pinballs or does it work the same with the Pinball Arcade pxp's as well?

Edit again: Double duh. I see there's a MANAGE TABLES button with v3.9 of A1Pinner in the Pinball Arcade section. Still haven't run it, but nice to know it's there!

BONUS QUESTION:
I know playing the tables that are part of the Williams STOCK APK require 720p or they play too laggy. But playing the [SAME] tables on Pinball Arcade APK ALSO require 720p?
