Have had a DE Star Wars for about 19 years. We have always enjoyed it. Just put in a new DMD and power board. About to bite the LED bullet soon. Any suggestions on what color theme to go with would be appreciated.

Quoted from Gryphun:

Progress...
On these decals, to minimize scratching I wrapped my hand in a new cloth baby diaper instead of using a brayer roll. Results were great

Looking good! Good luck with this project.

Quoted from davebart5:

... quick question and seeking advice on something.

I've had a Rottendog in my DE SW for years without any issues.

Quoted from Aflacjack:

Star wars owner here....love the Data East titles.

Aflacjack have you tried the newr SW code in your machine? It is great. It makes the ramp shots less important, and adds the ball-save (pluse other stuff).

New CPR mirrored DE Star Wars backglass now available

Quoted from durgee7:

Has anyone here added spotlights to their Data East playfield?

I added two spotlights to my DESW - on the top nut of each sling.

I posted this in the DE SW group, but am repeating here for possible additional input point of view.

On my DE Star Wars, just recently in attract mode, my machine will suddenly say “May the force be with you.” Sometimes it will repeat it immediately. I’ve owned this machine 20+ years and it has never done that before. Played a game recently and during the game got a random”May the force be with you,” and all of the game music sounds stopped (other game sounds still played). After the ball drains, the music comes on again. Any ideas what might be going on?

Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:

caps are going bad. Sounds would reset after every ball

Caps on the sound board or power board?

Quoted from bossk4hire:

Anyone have a hack or mod for the volume control rod?

I've not had an issue with my DE SW, but when my jukebox volume potentiometers get cranky, I shoot it with a squirt of DeOxit. Clears up the issue like a charm.
