Easy: press the start button for a few secs -> enter selection menu. While in play it returns to the attract mode.

Or even better yet (that's what I show to new people): show them the PC first, say it's running Windows and let the perform a ctrl-alt-delete by left flipper-start-right flipper... Awesome show, I never get tired of it )

Awesome, I didn't know any of that, I just set it up and started playing. Figured out the online updates and getting my scores online, nothing else. Is there a manual online somewhere?

Follow up: I played it a lot this morning. I think I needed to put her through her paces. I've neglected her lately. Waiting to install the new playfield... Anyways, the switches worked pretty good. Probably just needs a few adjustments.

What did you do? Any pics?

On some games my balls don't get kicked out into shooter lane - only happened since 2.0.

On mine it was adjustments and cleaning contacts. only a few...

I would recommend having your Bride working 100% before installing the 2.0 kit. This way you know the switches, etc work. Then just troubleshoot any switch thats acting up after installing 2.0.

I had some minor head rotating problems when I first installed my Bride 2.0 kit, it turned out cleaning the switches solved those as well. I'm guessing the problem was there already and somehow got more pronounced with the kit.

I had this issue but I upped the coil strength for the trough kickout in the menu and hasn't happened since.

I can almost guarantee you the power cord will come of the lcd display in transport, it hangs downward and the cord weight pulled mine out when I brought it to the Seattle show this past weekend. I had a moment of panic when the display didn't come up before we could figure out what had happened. Just to give you a heads up!

Put up a pretty decent score last week.
Achieved new Metamorphosis mode...what a rush!!!!

Anyone have a clue how soon a kit might become available?

Just under 2 weeks from now, if the schedule Melissa mentioned a month ago holds true.

But AFAIK they're only making pre-orders. No extras. So you need to contact CoinTaker immediately before last orders are taken.

Make sure the tiny screws that attach the P-Roc to the mounting plate are nice and tight. A few of mine worked themselves loose on the way to MGC and I had to go to Ace Hardware to get replacements.

If anyone is getting a repro playfield and wants to sell let me know, I'm clearly way too late to the game.

Question: Did this 2.0 update remove the face spin mechanism? Ive been watching some videos and didnt see the eyes/voice/human mode thing kick in.

Nope, just new rules. Head turns when you reach multiball 2 and metamorphosis.

Was wondering if anybody thinks it would be possible to do a mod kinda like cftbl hologram screen on the last two faces in bop? Would be great for 2.0... Obviously you couldn't use eyes and mouth faces cause they have holes but pretty sure you could fit a screen or two on other two and maybe wire them thru a 360 degree rotating switch. Thoughts anybody?

How should that work? Open the head and you'll see there is literally zero space. And from the player's point of view it wouldn't work anyway.

In short: no!

Get the head 3D printed, LED it up and make a cool topper!

Was thinking that there is lcd screens the same size ish as the face panels. kinda like the screens in head rests of cars find the thinnest profile one take the screen out of the plastic frame and replace face panel with it ? idk the actual dementions of the face panels and am not by my machine to measure it but I think it could work

So the screen would spin with box and wire it or them thru a spinning connector I have no idea sounds cool tho..imagine after you fill eyes it flips to screen with animation of face eyes opening then it flips to another screen and a metamorphosis animation lots of room for shot animations

...though it sounds awesome, it sadly just won't work

Bummer would be cool

Guys, could you help me decide, which one I should install in my machine?

I personally favorite the non shuttle one...

I like the last one

Are you open to ideas for maybe some changes?

Sure, go ahead! I'd like the pinbot in the corner right for instance

Be open! I can take that!

Can I suggest to bring back the space men and vehicles as in the original, move the Williams / DP logos to the bottom right, add the shuttle taking off as in your decals above that and not even having pinbot in the design.

That's just my opinion and I'm sure whatever you come up with will be awesome!

Hmmm, well... The (extremely short) story of the original Bride 1.0 is that she is being build right now, while in 2.0 she is running out of energy and you have to recharge her in multiball 2. Ending in metamorphosis after delivering the 3 balls.

I'll give the shuttle idea a shot, und pinbot is basically just an annoying rectangular shape - right

Gonna change my mind and say I like the 5 th one the most. Can't wait to see the final decision!

This one is my favorite (until you slap me hard)

My thoughts on this one were: ok, she's done, pinbot sending her new energy... Go for it, girl!

Sign me up for the one you just posted...

Pinbot looks washed out... Other than that... Looks great!

How does all the art line up with the bulbs on the board?

Looking at a BoP next week. What is the supply like for the 2.0 kit? I think cointaker still had some. Are they almost sold out? Not sure how soon I will have the funds to get it.

That would be my feedback, too. Perhaps mirrored bottom area (particularly empty middle) would benefit from partial transparency (seeing some of the nebulae behind), or reflection of the nebulae.

Otherwise, this fits far better with the new theme and your decals.

P.S. Not sure if you want to add the main designers' names for original and 2.0 machine in small subscript?

I was just printing one and installed it... Looks gorgeous. But I need something for the shuttle flasher on the left in the now planet area. Everything else is aligned pretty nice.

Also needs better printing, blue is washed out it was only a draft, to see what will happen...

Re-adjusted a few objects to match the backbox GI and - most important the flashers. Added planet Pythonia.

I'd need LEDs for the backbox now, and a few shouldn't be installed either [left to her hand, under her knee]

another thing to consider....replace the stock bulbs with led strips using the stock socket.

I will take a picture tonight of the strips in my back box. I think I replaced 6 of the sockets with strips that I could position anywhere on the back box.

He's on this design too...

Hey ducks, have you heard any update on the release lately?

any updates to report ?

Yep, I'm done I'll get the translite printed again to double check on colors. Desaturated the bride a little, as she was too blue, and shifted a few colors on the planet and its streaks... Changed a few objects to better match to decals' style. I'll post the result asap... Need to sleep over it again
