I hope this will work with IC, Also would love a link whenever it is available.
Quoted from Spider:Hi,
it’s not possible with the current version of the PB to edit sounds in the 1.05 code.
Thanks for letting us know. I guess I won't be updating! No way I'm giving up your custom music.
Quoted from Spider:Hi,

This is a big bummer, and I too, will not be considering updating the code. Sound mod adds way too much to give up. I’d rather buy the damn $700 topper to get gem mania, than give up the sound mod. Ymmv.

You can play the updated code and experience Gem Mania (which is very minor), get all of your necessary achievements, and then go back to the mod.
Is it a solid that once you update to the new code you can go back to the spider code on a different flash card, and the game will play fine?

Someone appropriately pointed out that one of the boards gets firmware updated with the new code. There’s a chance you couldn’t go back. Probably someone would just have to try it
I think I'll wait for someone braver than me to try. It would really suck to try and mess up a board,
Fwiw I dm’d the original programmer for Pinball Explorer to ask if he/she was still developing on the project, and if they were considering updating to support modding the new code. They said they are going to try, but not sure if it’s even possible.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I went back to 1.03 with no problems. Agree that the update is not worth losing this mod.
I have an AIQ Pro v1.03
I have the avengers_infinity_pro-1_03_0.Release.8G.sdcard.raw file
Using Win32DiskImager I burn the .raw file onto my 8GB SD Card (connected via a USB connector)
It leaves me with two files on the SD Card:
* stern-spike2.dtb (47kb)
* zimage (5900 kb)
I put the USB into the slots of my powered-off AIQ
Boot the AIQ, it does not go into update mode.
What am I doing wrong here?

I had version 1.05v on my avengers prem and swap to mod sd card 1.03v and node boards updated, played a game so far mod code works 100% I verified it on my pin. I played about 10 games no issues. I love end ball movie clip with thor and capt shield, ironman multi-ball is awesome, thor multiball is our favorite, soul gem mode is perfectly done Dr Strange shows the gem in his hands if you win. I hope to see black order battle movie clips and MOST OF ALL thanos multiball with thanos snapping avengers into dust if you lose or ironman snapping Thanos into dust if you win. I'm hooked on this code. please notify me if mod 1.05v is released. Very well done! A+ thank you
Looking at a local AIQ and would likely swap in this code mod. Are there any recent videos of the code in action? Thanks!
Quoted from McDoom:Wow!! this mod is amazing!! Another bolted down game!!
It fixes most
Quoted from onemilemore:Looking at a local AIQ and would likely swap in this code mod. Are there any recent videos of the code in action? Thanks!
I don't know of a video but highly recommend this. Fixed my biggest issue with the game. It gives it character and the video assets are night and day better. I think the music is improved as well.
hypothetically say I were getting AIQ pro delivered in a week or so, and it was my first pinball machine, are these nice mods available for the 1.06 update?
Follow up, if i get a new pinball does it come with the update already?

The idea is to keep videos offline so there aren’t claim issues that arise.

It’s an aftermarket mod so you’d have to backtrack to 1.03 and install it.
Quoted from friscopinball:Is 1.03 the latest version? Had a crash during gameplay but wasn’t sure if I had the latest update.
I believe so
Quoted from Slogan1111:How do I get the soundmod?
Quoted from boostedskex:Interested in trying this mod out. Does anyone here have a link to download the code?
PM Spider
I've seen some slight references to what will or won't work, so I thought I'd share one experience:
- Machine: Non-IC AIQ Pro at 1.06
- Used Win32DiskImager to convert Spider's .RAW file onto a 32GB Class 10 SD Card
- When I used the "verify" function it indicated an error on sector 1892, which ended up being a non-issue. Recommend not putting much weight into the verify function.
- Turned off the machine, waiting for all LEDs on the boards to go dark, pushed down on the stock SD Card until click, which pops it back out for removal.
- Plugged in the new card with Spider image.
- Turned on the machine and initially got the error msg "Problem finding Nodes 1,8,9", at which point I thought it was stuck. I turned off power, replaced OG SD card, and it booted it up fine with stock code. <- DON'T DO THIS
- I should have waited longer. On attempt #2, I left the game for a while and apparently it's an interim message while things are loading (I guess..?) I didn't measure total time, but just let it process. Eventually everything loaded.
End result is that it seems that I'll be able to swap back and forth if desirable, but I see no need, given I really dig the extent to which Spider made the video updates.
Here were my questions going in that I didn't see clearly answered previously: (I'm guessing they're in the thread somewhere, but thought I'd put them all in one place.)
1. Do you have to downgrade from a higher code version to 1.03 (stock) before trying out the new code. NO (from my experience).
-I couldn't even find a way to get the old 1.03 SPK file. I've kept a handful of older ones but not 1.03....
2. Do you need a 8 GB SD Card? Probably not.
- If you do go w/8GB, it's one less variable, but it seems a number of us have been able to go larger.) Class 10 is the key attribute.
3. Can you swap back and forth? Yes, (at least for code in the range between 1.06 and 1.03).
4. What do I lose by going with 1.03? <Just Gem Mania mode without the topper?>
- I'll need someone else to weigh in here around other differences between 1.06 and 1.03. Since I'm not on IC, nor do I find Gem Mania a compelling mode, I'm fine.
PMd you Spider. Forgot to give you my details. AIQ Premium please. Looking forward to hearing from you how to acquire this mod. Super excited.

Yes, main loss is Gem Mania mode.
Minor loss: increased scoring with Gamma Ray and Thor Multiball
Quoted from Spider:Thanks, i will do my best
Thank you! Having your code with IC would be game changer (and def donation worthy!)
Quoted from marioparty34:Ooooh! Does Spider have a new version with IC?
i think we are awaiting it! def hoping for it soon! donation ready Spider
Quoted from DaddyManD:i think we are awaiting it! def hoping for it soon! donation ready Spider
Sweet looking forward to this.

Thanks so much for the ALL IN 1 info source! I like to add beside Gem mania multiball in grid award, also insider connect Home team update but that's not a big deal if you use QR code to log into your profile. I'm using Spider code and it's well worth it, ironman and thor multiball is way more exciting now, and soul gem is cool too. NOTE: I turned off auto update and auto download so I can still log in without any issues. I beat the game and my experience is great, no issues. We can't wait what he does for thanos multiball and beating Thanos. So far I'm impressed and this code brings smiles to my kids that remember the movie.

I've been on newer code since I got the game & afraid to downgrade. I'm excited to hopefully try this code. I'm certainly in on a donation as well if it gets updated.

Yup similar boat here, got the 1.03 spider version a month back and never could find 1.03 game code to use it with. My machine is still on .93 and i've been waiting around to see if spider updates to a version i can find game code for before i screw myself and update and all the node boards get new firmware.

It's been a while, but I don't think you need to first install the official Stern 1.03 version of the software before installing the modded version. The modded version has the 1.03 already in it.
Hi,
1.06 for LE has been updated, now I'm testing, then I'll upload it, after that I'll do the Pro version, please give me a few more days
