Hey all - I'm having an issue with the window on my Creature. I've been living with it for a while but was in there for something else and figured I'd work on it. I had assumed the issue I was having was because part of the window was either above or below the playfield. Well, it turns out it's not.

Basically, when moving slower either down or across the playfield, the ball would roll in wonky ways. Well, it turns out the problem is that the window has some fairly substantial gaps between the edge of the window and the playfield opening on the sides. So, the ball will tend to "catch" and tend to follow that channel which causes add rolling effects.

Has anyone else had this issue? How did you go about resolving it. I think the playfield is original and I'm pretty sure the window is as well. But, I'm not as sure about the window. But, both are as they were when I acquired the game.

Thanks,
Jaz

Thanks Tom. The problem is that the gap is too big to adjust out...
