I hope for Star Trek this week!

I have had a Color DMD is my STLE for a year now patiently waiting. Please Randy. STLE

Any chance of Godzilla getting color treatment? Looks like it would fit no problem.

I know it is a lower production run, but what a great set of animations.

Isn't sigma green pretty much all you'd need?

Not doing any other titles where I don't have the machine locally. Too much bother.

If you want to borrow it, I am happy to bring it over. Just LMK.

Just did a full tear down and rebuild and plays like a champ!

Maybe eventually. I have to finish the current burden first.

I purchased a ColorDMD for an older Williams game but haven't put it in yet. Could I use it in my Star Trek Pro instead?

I thought there was an issue with fitting the ColorDMD units into the Sega marquis-style backboxes.

#1261 7 years ago
Quoted from PinballManiac40:

Correction....any game without a ColorDMD is a crime and is boring!!

I agree Met is one of the best...We need a ColorDMD top 25 or something solely rating the ColorDMD.

Yes,
But you would need the proper cables and clear shield.

#1263 7 years ago
Quoted from Kenz:

I'm about to buy my first Colour DMD but can't decide on LCD or LED. The machines it will go into are TZ, CFTBL or STTNG.
Can anyone advise?

It really is all about personal preference, for STTNG I highly recommend the LCD though, it looks great is HiRes mode and although I don't have either of the other two I think they would be better in LCD than LED based on the type of graphics and animations they have. CFTBL may be better served with a LED though if you want more vibrant greens and to keep some of the nostalgic look. Can't go wrong either way.

Godzilla is same as Southpark as far as I can tell???

Should be zero issue.

keep me posted

Quoted from Beebl:

I thought about making a thread about that but thought it would be weird from someone involved. Then also how would you rate it? Based on the original animations, the coloring job or a combination of the two?

Aw...wth...

My mistake - I thought it had one of those rounded "showcase" translites like Space Jam or Starship Troopers. My understanding is that there's a low support strut that gets in the way of ColorDMD's screens.

But now there are the LED displays that should fit fine in those games.

New year, new titles! This is my year - I can feel it!
Bring on the new hints, ColorDMD!

#1271 7 years ago

Are They making TWD now ?

#1272 7 years ago

WCS!!!!! It's time...cartoony, and tons out there...probably most consistent thread on pinside....let my begging for this final title in current lineup begin!!!!

#1273 7 years ago

We are officially at one month since Avatar was announced as the latest to get color. Wow. I sure am needing a color fix again. Hoping for some new hints this week.

#1274 7 years ago

Anyone rooting for jy? Seems like a fun one to color, gotta be someone working on it..

#1275 7 years ago
Quoted from Mbecker:

I've been hoping for Junk Yard since the start of this thread! It's an underrated game with great animations and I think it's slowly rising in popularity. The owners thread has been getting a lot of activity lately.

#1276 7 years ago

It would be neat to color all of those items you collect in JY.

#1277 7 years ago

Still hoping SC is in the mix. Some of the best animations left out there to color for classic B/W titles.

#1278 7 years ago

+1 for JY

#1279 7 years ago

I'm most looking forward to the fireworks, magic bus and video mode intros in color.

Agree it would be great to see a JY.

#1281 7 years ago

Would be an amazing 2017 to see The Walking Dead and Star Trek! Both seem like their code is done.....Perhaps just 1 more bug update, otherwise done.......

#1282 7 years ago

Walking Dead Color dmd Will be amazing , maybe this Will get me to buy one

#1283 7 years ago
Quoted from thunderking50:

I think it'd look great in black and white, with just the occasional splash of red for the blood - similar to the playfield artwork - rather than in full multi colour

#1284 7 years ago

Time to start beating the drum for Austin Powers again. Yeah baby yeah!

This is actually kind of an interesting concept. Not sure most would agree with you, but it's an interesting idea.

#1287 7 years ago

Pinball magic's code is done... lets get some Capcom lovin!

#1288 7 years ago

My turn, I've waited a long time.
Who Dunnit in 2017....Please.

#1289 7 years ago
Quoted from epthegeek:

I think it would be a cool concept for a single mode, but not for all gameplay. For example, the TV show used some black and white scenes in the Season 6 premiere, but not for the entire episode.

Installed Sigma and waiting as well.

You can already do black and white just put a screen in now and set the color to white. Not sure it would be worth adding just red for blood.

I have one in my twd with smoothing on. Looks great. I now can't play one with regular dots.

HOORAY! First clue of the new year!

Obvious first impressions: Harley Davidson, Nascar, Mustang, Corvette, No Fear, Viper Night Drivin', Indy 500

Lateral thinking: Wheel of Fortune, Transformers

Pure wishful thinking: Junk Yard (which features a skidding bus animation)

#1293 7 years ago

I guess we all see, what we want to see...
I see a Black Rose!

#1294 7 years ago

Donuts. Nascar?

#1295 7 years ago

Another stretch but here's Star Trek 'Arena'

IMG_3794 (resized).JPGIMG_3794 (resized).JPG

#1296 7 years ago

Mustang has a burnout animation in the match sequence.

#1297 7 years ago

Junk yard sure would be awesome

#1298 7 years ago

I figured that was Randy just doing donuts in a parking lot

#1299 7 years ago

The Walking Dead!!!! Yay

#1300 7 years ago
Quoted from JimB:

Man I was trying to find a way to link Star Trek to it - nice job!
