I just joined the club!

Well a week ago, but I played two games before a coil locked on , blew a tranny and somehow then had an issue on aux power board relay.

It's still got incandescents so I'll look at changing those in next few weeks (I've got a Diner to led also so a big comet order coming).
Does Bk1k suit Sunlights throughout?

It's still got mylar on the bottom pf but not the top, just some crazed and risen inserts up there except the N In WIN is worn (seems common)
The bubbling mylar is a little annoying, I feel it does influence the ball.

Few questions to you seasoned members.

I've quite ocd with how my games play, I like ball feeds to be consistent and correct.

Should the kickback hit the drops or go round the mini loop?

Any tips on upper pf flipper alignment?

I've had trouble leveling this game. The bubble I'd center but it feels like the ball more often bounces to the left off the posts, especially the war rollover posts.

I've used my digital level and it wants me to raise right leg so much that my left leg isn't touching the floor. I've tried levelling the back and my right rear leg is jacked right up while about 3/4 " thread from the feet shows above the leg.

I started ignoring the level and trying to adjust till the ball behaves as you'd expect but it feels weird the levels tell me the opposite.

In a double knights challenge the right saucer had the multiball light illuminates but when a ball went in there it just sat there then ejected.
Did seem odd to have multiball lit when already in a multiball.

Quoted from Swainer80:

I like warm leds(this is a medieval game) But prefer reds under red inserts.
The ball always falls to the right on the upper playfield on my game. . .go figure.
The kick save hits the drop targets.
The upper flipper I keep reasonably back, good for loops and the upkick volley shot for.the ramp.
The knights challenge saucer is a place to park the ball for a few seconds during multi ball.

Mines like this, I had it further back but can't really tell the difference.
Is yours in line with the art?

I can do two or three loops but haven't managed 5 yet.20220329_204738 (resized).jpg20220329_204738 (resized).jpg

I'm struggling to do more than 3 loops on the upper playfield. It's like the ball drops right before the gate on the right.
I've got no rubber on that post which people say improves the ability to loop.

Does the playfield pitch being steeper or shallower help or hinder the loop?
I had mine at 6.5 but wonder if 6.0 might be better for this game?

I like the speed of bk2k, it keeps you shooting .

Has anyone used Comet Sunlights for GI, I'm undecided between sunlight and warm white. Unfortunately there's nowhere in UK that had warm whites so I can't really get a few to try.

Quoted from dfester007:

I happen to like the Sunlights in general... I know with all the browns and blacks in the game the warm would suit the machine better... but the low light output always just makes everything so dark. Cool white... no. Maybe for white inserts... but still keep going with Sunlight...

Cool white I avoid for gi except in maybe a few rare locations where there's blues but I find it far too cold and harsh.
Luckily I may have found some warm whites in the UK to try out

I'd love to led the inserts but would want an Afterglow or Ledocd first.

That's beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

I managed 6 loops with the pitch lowered slightly!
