Nothing too exciting. Ordered a color DMD for Breakshot, and LED's for Dr. Dude.

Added a Color DMD to my Capcom Breakshot. Holy crap is this nice.

The videos don't do it justice. I will try to get a better video with a real camera
Chris
Yesterday was just some simple basic maintenance after work.
Replaced a frayed plug on my Space Duel arcade machine, and replaced a broken post on Pinball Magic. Nothing as exciting as the other stuff here, but needed to be done.

Installed a set of comet optimax Amber/Orange LEDs in my dog over the weekend. Maybe too bright but I definitely think it'll give her a leg up on the squirrels at night.[quoted image]
LOL, I was going to say those look like extra brite LED's.
I rebuilt the drop target assembly on my Dr. Dude this morning. Now they "snap" down rather than slowly "slide" down. Much more fun.
Chris
Installed 1.3 ROM's on Breakshot. Now I have the Cutthroat Countdown mode and full color on te color DMD. Thanks Astill!
Chris
Well since I am super basic, and apparently have a little OCD, I replaced all the insert LED's on Bad Cats and Phantom of the Opera with non-ghosting LED's.
I bought both the games with LED's already installed, and the ghosting really bothered me. LOL
Like I said, basic but effective.
Chris
Quoted from LTG:I'm thinking of shopping my original MM today.
Not sure I want to start. Everything I did yesterday went wrong. I even screwed up a parts order.
Once MM is done then I have all the games in the back, and the JJP row up front done. Only 8 games left to do.
LTG : )
I always screw up a parts order Lloyd, don't feel bad. I once placed a $500 order with Marco and forgot the main thing I REALLY needed. D'oh!
Chris
Been working in a deep cleaning on my Dr Dude. Learn some new skills too which is cool (riveting).
Getting there.

I probably (I am hoping) missed a connector on the underside somewhere. I REALLY hope that's all. What's odd is that the VUK fires continually in attract mode.
Chris
Quoted from Lhyrgoif:Doing a teardown of the topside on my newly bought Whitewater; cleaning , machine polishing all metal and replacing broken plastics. Will ofc service the underside too.
[quoted image]
that game sure does look different without all the ramps on it!
Chris
Quoted from TheLaw:Still getting closer...Jesus shit christ, I can't even get this done in a pandemic, how I was in planning to do it normaly?
Anyway, guys it's totally weird but I'm having problems, like I'm at a loss.
The machine worked fine before I took every single piece off of it, but now it's full if issues?!?[quoted image]
Edit 1: oh and you can go blow yourself with the whole "drilling PF holes for metal guides. "
I've never felt more pressure
I feel for ya man. My Dr. Dude is the same way. Worked fine but was dirty, so I shopped it out and now it's got switch issues
Chris
Quoted from LTG:Still ? From MPU to switch, verify color wires are the same all along. To be sure something isn't going to the wrong thing.
LTG : )
Yep. The ramp entrance switch isn't registering now. The upkicker is acting up as well.
I'll get there.
Chris
Quoted from tatman9999:Here is first color of my pin I am stenciling . Yellow will be next and then clear coat.

OOOOOOOOOOH!!! Cosmic Gunfight? What an amazing machine that is! Looking great so far!
Chris

LTG : )
Finally got things all sorted out on the Dr. (I think). Time to button it up and play test (extensively)!
Chris
Quoted from Tsskinne:Body now done, small spot of blue touch up but overall really happy with how it came out.
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Is that lobster (or whatever it is) giving us the finger?
Chris
Quoted from Tsskinne:I can only guess at the scorpions intent, but I’d have to assume yes.
Now that you said Scorpion, it makes sense. I see it. LOL. It was early, and I hadn't had my morning libations. LOL
I still say he's flipping us off. how rude!
Chris
Quoted from DeeGor:Here's my covid project. Just waiting for a new mirrored backglass to arrive before I call it finished, but it's close enough.

So many mistakes were made, but I was able to recover from them. Not sure I'd ever do it again based on the amount of work, but it's not bad for a first time restore.
Wow! Looks like a new machine! Just out of curiosity - is that a replacement playfield. I've never seen the area by the skill shot black before.
Be proud of all your hard work! looks great!
Chris
Quoted from Silverstreak02:I finished the coin door today. It was completely disassembled, cleaned, painted or polished. I think it is much better and will go well with the freshly painted cabinet.

Meh. I guess it turned out OK.
SERIOUSLY??!! That looks AMAZING! I don't know how anyone could be disappointed with a result like that. Well done!
Chris
Quoted from swampfire:Off topic, sort of. These were all down a week ago. I hope they stay up longer this time.
[quoted image]
I have never played Gravitar, but I SO want one to got with my Space Duel and Black Widow. Love me some Atari vector goodness. Congrats on getting them all going!
