Using the latest Stern Avengers Infinity Quest code 1.06, with full Insider Connected features. This update is comic based with no movie video clips since I prefer to keep it a comic themed pin. Available for all models - Pro / Premium / Limited Edition

What's in it?
Movie soundtrack music replacing much of the stock music. Yes, of COURSE Immigrant Song plays during Thor Multiball.
Shoot To Thrill plays during Iron Man MB.

Attract mode videos, of course:

New animations during gameplay. This video shows the new game start scenes and at:

1:30 starts showing Iron Man ball locks and Iron Man MB
3:35 Begin Gamma Ray Spinner

Here's a video showing the new Bonus, Game Over and Match Screens along with the new game over music.

Other new animations include:

New game opening scenes introducing the Avengers and a great Thanos scene
Hulk Gamma Ray spinner hurry up and Award (no more boring eye)
Antman Mystery
Iron Man Multiball: Lock is Lit; different animations for ball 1-2-3 locks; MB Start; MB total
Black Order Multiball start and ending
Two new Jukebox effects

Yes please. This is fantastic and keeps the comic theme throughout but turns it up to 11!!! How does someone get their hands on this?

#3 9 months ago

I wouldn't mind giving it a try.

#4 9 months ago

Play testing now and need to increase the volume for Immigrant Song that plays for Thor MB. Also decided to add Shoot To Thrill for Iron Man MB.

Message for the Pro link. Probably will be ready this evening or in the morning.

Still working on the Pro. I've been play testing last night and today and came up with a new "shooter groove" track to replace the stock one. Stock shooter lane music is too much for me...annoys my ears if a ball is left in the shooter lane while I go get a drink.

Made a new Iron Man MB Total screen with a great animated shot of Iron Man flying close up to the screen. Also made a new Iron Man Ball 2 Lock to fit the theme I want to tell with Iron Man MB as he suits up:

Ball 1 locked - Helmet is put on and eyes light up
Ball 2 locked - Last glove is on and suit is powered up
Ball 3 locked - when not in another MB, a there's usually a callout like, "full power to repulsors!" Iron Man flies into frame, hovering with his jet boots and blasts his hand repulsors.

Iron Man MB Start - Iron Man bursts thru the screen and Shoot to Thrill starts cranking!

Played a long game tonight and took video of it. Need to make a few slight tweaks.

You can hear the new soundtrack in the video. Looks like it was out of focus though.

#12 9 months ago

Looks awesome I would be in for LE
Nice job!!

#13 9 months ago

Great improvement!

Code is great. Having one issue. It's freezing up on the Match screen and not going into attract mode. See photo. It'll advance once I hit Start, but nothing else.

Try writing the image again to the SD card. What method did you use to write it?

I followed the Stern process to a T. I'll try it again and let you know.

Sometimes their method does cause lockups. If it does it again we’ll use another method.

I use Pinball Browser to write images since I'm already using that to edit them. I don't think you need a license to write an image to an SD card. Here's a link to Pinball Browser:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MojNbZwT6bVTJoAj9hKGn0dlbNowH_29/view?usp=share_link

Open the SmartDMD tab
Browse to the image file you want to write
Choose the drive letter of your SD card and write the image

Also can use Win32DiskImager, which is what I always used prior to Pinball Browser. Etcher, the app Stern mentions in their guide, does seem to cause issues from time to time.

Hello PoMC, thanks for sharing your work. Looks pretty cool.
Is there any reason why you replaced the Avengers movie theme song during the normal gameplay by the Iron Man theme?
Do we still have a chance to hear the Avengers theme at other places during the game?

Thanks

Thanks. Main gameplay theme came down to what sounded best for playing pinball. That gameplay audio spot is about 2 minutes and 30 seconds. The actual avengers theme is not very exciting to play pinball to and the good parts are shorter than that. Also going for a comic book vibe and that Iron Man theme is punchy as heck and fun to listen to.

At the start of every game, you do get the Avengers theme when introducing the Avengers. Also plays during one of the the gem mode scenes too.

Thank you and nice job on the AIQ code PoMC ! Very well done!

First, before making the change, I wrote down notes of any default settings I had changed previously like reducing trough eject power, sound settings for aftermarket speakers, never reset high scores, etc... I kept the notes with the factory SD card and put in the coin box in a Ziploc bag.

I used Win32DiskImager to write to the SD card and startup was like turning on a NIB game for the first time including Wi-Fi setup. After setup I did have to turn the game off and back on for Insider Connected to recognize my QR code or Home Team, but then it worked fine which I think may be normal first time experience.

I haven't been playing AIQ as much lately and have over 3800 games played on my Premium and have "finished the game" many times. The things this custom code addresses were the weaknesses of AIQ and it was true to the comic theme, so I was looking forward to trying it out to "freshen up" the gameplay experience.

I only put one game on it, but it was one of my better games at 5.6 Billion! I beat Thanos Attacks with 1B Super Victory Laps and got to Battle Thanos with all 6 gems. The only things I missed out on were that I had both Computer Frenzy Multiball and Trophy Mania ready when I drained my final ball. Getting that deep into the game and no problems with the code at all and I probably didn't notice every change, but it was all very well done and the music was much more upbeat, which I enjoyed and welcomed.

I am looking forward to playing more AIQ again to keep noticing the changes and how they improve gameplay.

After playing, I can confirm that Insider Connected was working as expected. IC still showed all of my previous game stats for AIQ, but under my actual machine, the scores had been reset, which I expected since they are saved on the removed SD card. (pic included).

Hello, great work and awesome way to play. Unfortunately I always get a pop up message saying "game validation error, update sd card".
Everything still works but that message sure is annoying. Is there any way to resolve this? I have a AIQ pro without insiders connect.

#44 38 days ago

Try this method of writing the SD card image file if you used another method.

You can also use Win32DiskImager, which is what I always use. Etcher, the app Stern mentions in their guide, does seem to cause issues from time to time.

I’ve got the same issue here. I think I need a different way to flash the SD card. All I have is a MAC, which doesn’t support pinball browser…
