Quoted from Thunderbird:

Can any Catwoman owner tell me if you have installed a bat signal near the riddler scoop and plugged into the underneath open cable? Does it light for you?
I ask, because i don’t know if my bat signal I just purchased is defective or if a code update makes it not work on Catwoman. I would think it is defective. Please confirm if you have the extra grey toy LE/SLE bat signal working on your playfield.

My Catwoman is 5/24/19 and the signal works fine for me. Got it from Docquest a couple weeks back and followed directions.

I joined the club a few weeks ago and am so stoked! I picked up a Catwoman model and love it. I finally got it dialed in exactly how I want it, thanks to all those that make these wonderful mods like the modcouple and docquest ...so awesome! Also, this thread is the best! Has answered pretty much every question I’ve had as a new owner with just a quick search... A few pics of mine

Did you switch the translight? Because that's not the catwoman translight.

Yup, I changed it. I prefer this one

Quoted from Royale-W-Cheese:

2 words.
" HELL YES"
I struggle so hard and barely can crack 4 billion. I only got Batsui once. Crazy Hard.
What's your fav of the 3 once you complete all 3 seasons??

Gas Attack is my favorite followed closely by Holy Multiball and Batusi far behind those two.

A Grand wizard mode would be the icing on the cake! I would have got to it tonight, I had a game with 2 villain escapes and all three mini wizard modes

#15717 3 years ago
Quoted from Royale-W-Cheese:

Wow.....what was your score? 50 Billion or more?

84 Bil -2 villain escapes (full path on all major villains, no early points) almost got a 3rd villain escape (I took shortcuts on points 3rd time around). All three minor villain wizard modes played. I got gas attack started while within villain escape when the 30 second 1 ball timer was frozen by Mr. Freeze ...pays off big.

#15720 3 years ago
Quoted from Royale-W-Cheese:

Well Done....I need to play more. I see some nice mods.
That Riddler is a tricky one...any suggestions? I struggle for awhile and cant get it to snap in.

Nothing special, just practice. Try to hit the left cat ramp, if you’re late, you got the riddler by accident ...helps get the feel. Seems like the same shot on each flipper, I struggle with the right side more than the left. Those two Riddler shots are essential.

#15735 3 years ago
Quoted from Royale-W-Cheese:

Okay another find....what are the 2 round metal looking items under the top of the left ramp/ I have mentioned it before about my ball gets stuck at the one spot. They look like they should pop up and maybe push the stuck ball but no go. The wiring is not the issue.
What are those for??
Thanks.

I had balls getting hung up there too. I adjusted the zip tie that holds the CAT lights wire (I actually removed the old zip tie and installed a new one). Once I did that, balls stopped hanging up in there and roll out smoothly every time now.

#15738 3 years ago
Quoted from Royale-W-Cheese:

ahhhh....you took off the white factory one and did a new black one. I will do that now but what are those 2 circle metals things do?

Yeah, I think it’s the wires that get in the way under there hanging balls up. Im not sure what those two circle metal things do. I don’t think they do anything. When there is a ball search and a ball is stuck under there, nothing pops it out, it’s stuck until you shake it out or grab it.

Anybody had the high scores reset?

My GC is still there but appears everything under that is gone. I had to crack 38 bil to enter a name before. I had a 3 bil game and got 1st place and all kinds of other records set that were way below previous scores. This is when I noticed. I haven’t updated or done anything like that.

#15849 3 years ago
Quoted from Droogs:

There's a setting to make the high scores, besides the GC, to reset after a certain amount of plays. It's typically used to encourage people to play more on location.

Thank you! I’ll dig into that.

#15852 3 years ago
Quoted from amkoepfer:

I just had an hour long game! Major villians twice with all escape, minor villians all 3 seasons 3 times. Jist had to hit bat cave for final minor multiball and then what? Wizard mode? 11 billion score!
[quoted image]

Good Stuff!!! Feels good to blow that thing up

Quoted from Flipstream:

Useful if you missed Bookworm or Freeze, and Both Mad Hatters will let you play collected minor villains as many times as you want.

Also, you can combo mad hatter with king tut’s save minor villain progress (great when you got bookworm too), then you go back to failed minor villains and pickup where you left off as many times as you want. I find that combo quite useful, it really helps to get multiple minor villain wizards modes.

I have the premium stern bat signal setup. I like it, pretty cool how it’s interactive. But, I don’t have the premium “villains” topper.

If anyone would sell a premium villains topper, please message me. Thanks!

#16288 3 years ago

I know this is a long shot, but...

I was able to get a premium topper for my Batman66, but the city skyline plastic in the back was cut down significantly, maybe they had a super low ceiling?

Does anyone have an extra set of the topper plastic? Would it be possible to make one? I’m missing the helicopter too.

#16291 3 years ago
Quoted from Jediturtle:

If they didn't disclose the changes to you before you bought it I would be demanding a refund. Yikes.

I knew it was messed up and it was a good price, so I popped on it. I figured better than nothing. I had the batsignal mech on top and wanted the topper too. I’ve had a wanted add up in the marketplace for a long time and just haven’t been able to get anything else.

Super exclusive ad from the Pinside Marketplace!
#16296 3 years ago
Quoted from docquest:

I first thought the original owner just cut the back skyline plastic, but after looking more closely, it appears the villains plastic in front also got shortened.
It should be fairly straight forward to make a replacement, you just need an original uncut original to scan. If I had that topper I'd scan it for you but unfortunately I dont.

Thanks! I was hoping for the same. I didn't realize the front plastic was cut too.

What is a 2X 7-way combo? My wife put it up as a high score and I want to go after it. Thanks!!!!

#16371 3 years ago
Quoted from Jahkub:

Two 7-way combos in the same game. You can beat it by getting an 8-way combo.

Thanks man!

For a pure max points approach, I usually go with Bookworm, Freeze, Tut, Mad Hatter, then max out Tut to 5X. Max out all Major Villains with 3x the play field running for a bonkers villain escape. I was hitting 4-5 billion point single spinner shots in the beginning of villain escape. Was able to get a 132 Billion game

Quoted from insx:

I finally managed to get Bookworm and Mr Freeze and make good use of them with Villain Escape and a couple of TV wizard modes.
[quoted image]

Try starting a TV wizard mode inside Villain escape with all the multipliers running...bonkers

#16898 2 years ago
Quoted from noysboy:Nice game!
Here is something for you to try next time you stack a TV wizard MB on Villain Escape.
When you are down to two balls on the TV MB, cradle both...and then let the BOTH drain. (technically, you can keep playing, but the timing of both remaining balls hitting the trough is the important part)
It will obviously start part 2 of VE, BUT, it also re-starts the TV MB...so you can continue running it during the entirety of VE.

Really cool, I’ll try thanks!

If you light mystery while playing a minor villain and hit the scoop, you gain 20 seconds. I think this is key especially with bookworm.

Also Mr. Freeze will get rid of all those pesky timers

Quoted from Jamesays:

Thank you for all the responses.

It’s a big list of mods to tackle. Batman66 has the best mods out there. I got most of them

Essentials:
The Atomic pile
Batphone + Shakespeare bust
The Batcopter
The Batsignal
Siren Covers (slings)

Great ones:
3D Cats
Backboard building
Gotham City Sign
Batman 66 Custom Eaglemoss/Hot Wheels Universal Plate Mod Kit
Batcave spinner upgrade kit
Penguin Umbrella
Parachute Pickup Van
Speaker Light kit w/bats

The like the limited Stern Art blades. The stern batsignal projector is cool too because it’s interactive with the game.

#17333 2 years ago
Quoted from GranpaDave:

And now for something totally different...
For birthday #60 I bought my first pinball machine - 3 years ago (after too much needless research). Of course, it was a new inbox Batman 66. I still own this machine and it is my favorite of over 25 + machines I have owned. I have over HUO 5,000 plays on it and my pinball buddies are very reticent to challenge me on this game for good reason. I am barely an above average player, but this game definitely resonates and it is my number one still.
Many people say it is clunky and yes it can be that - if your shots are off. What makes this game for me is the awesome code. I am still exploring the minor villains as well as the second and third seasons of the major villains. Unfortunately, I was never able to meet Lyman Sheats III in person but in my short deep dive into this hobby he is king.
I had an hour to play this morning, and my goal was to get to villain escape if possible. After a couple of warm up games, my shots were on- time to play ball.
The shots were flowing and I saved MB and penguin for last. I discovered that I had my lowest score ever getting to villain escape. So here is my question to you all, what is the lowest score that you have ever had going into villain escape?
Cheers!
[quoted image]

Cool stuff, I’ve played a lot on mine as well. I think my lowest Villain Escape total would be 108 million. I was trying to get to villain escape as quickly as possible under a timer

Eric stone at 1.6 trillion on ball 2 on twitch right now

Thank you for the heads up! I’m so glad I got to watch that, WOW!!!

#17479 2 years ago
Quoted from Rum-Z:

Yeah, that's what I'm doing (the coin door scanner mount).

Where do you plug the cable into? I have been using the plug in the backbox that my topper goes to for IC, however I believe you use a splitter and connect in somewhere under the playfield. I have the splitter, I just don’t know where to tie into. Does anyone have pictures of the split and where it connects to under the playfield?

#17482 2 years ago
Quoted from tjc02002:

Check out post# 17177 on page 344,

I need to see where those green wires plug into. It shows the splitter and area, but not the endpoint.

#17489 2 years ago
Quoted from Thunderbird:

Open ethernet port on mini LCD works on Batman or port on underside upper left corner, see photo. But Batman has the turning table mech, where ethernet cable has to work in conjunction with spinning table and not get tangled up. So the best solution for Batman is using a splitter at the end of node board 8. Only issue there is, plugging a fat ethernet 8pin splitter in is too wide and puts pressure on adjacent ethernet port and flexes the board above way too much to possibly break it in the future.
Solution:
1. Buy 8pin (8P8C) RJ45 ethernet splitter (see photo) (or order all sided female splitter from Amazon - amazon.com link »)
2. Purchase 8pin (8P8C) coupler to hook into 8pin ethernet splitter (see photo)
3. Hook .5m or smaller ethernet cable to splitter
4. Remove ethernet cable located at node board 8 and install ethernet splitter assembly into that port. Insert removed ethernet cable and host camera cable both into ethernet splitter and you’re off to the Batcave making Bat66 achievements or SW universe. The same setup works for Star Wars and the other 2 games that have this issue.

The premium topper is very basic, just a power source and it lights up. I have one that has been chopped down for a low ceiling. I would buy a set of reproduction Acrylics if anyone could make them. Would this be an easy topper to duplicate? Seems similar to the GnR topper, just a metal base with an led strip and acrylic. 8f28b2d98d4495e5af3de645a909c96d9e7f7fcf (resized).png8f28b2d98d4495e5af3de645a909c96d9e7f7fcf (resized).png 38ae9d3e948224b077dbaa535519affea3138876 (resized).jpeg38ae9d3e948224b077dbaa535519affea3138876 (resized).jpeg
