I did. Other than the usual screwups here and there, it was mostly uneventful. Managed to get it all buttoned up and then realized I'd mounted it upside down. =)

Not sure how I can help; I can take photos if you need to confirm wiring, etc.

Here you go. I think I left the RF shield off. Let me know if you need anything else or can't make out something.

Well keep in mind that the thing is laid out on my playfield with the “top” of the board closest to us. So effectively it’s upside down.

But yes it works.

Oh yeah, cool! And with an LCD readout? Am interested to learn more about how you did this!

You can do that if you want; I put a Pinsound in mine. Changed out the music, mostly, but you can replace all of the sound effects if you take the time.

Ah cool! I've messed around with this a little; went as far as to record myself saying all the numbers, dropping into the files, so I could figure out what gets triggered when. Then didn't ever truly finish.

What did you do in yours teddyb73 ?

Too late to get on the beta train, but super excited to see what comes of this!!

Hah, the backglass is my absolute least favorite thing about this game, in myriad ways.

Putting Mel's visage aside, I think I counted double-digits of guns on it. Not my favorite thing to have in the living room.

Also my first pin, and I've yet to sell! It's just so much fun for the price.

Also using Chad's code, and miss the "3 ramp shots for extra ball". Am curious if you figure out a setting to re-enable this.

My LW3 has chad's code, and a ColorDMD, since those came out.

Recently the display has been getting "corrupted". At this moment it looks fine, else I'd snap a photo.

But a large percentage of the time, the display will start showing gibberish like something's corrupt, to the point where you can't even read scores.

Is this likely a RAM chip of some sort I need to replace? I'd not think it's a ROM chip since it seems fine a lot of the time.

Edit: as I was done posting, it started glitching:

+1 to this; would love to know

slizzap - thanks; I pulled open LW3 to look at the right flipper (it's been getting stuck "up"). There were a couple of wires to that flipper that were bent badly (I know I dropped the playfield on the underside once or twice - my little things to hold the playfield are broken off). I know reading on DE flippers this could be a bad diode.

Well, after bending the wires back... the DMD issue hasn't recurred! Weird!

Just wanted to follow up on my old post. I ordered some diodes, ready to dig into my LW3 and get the flipper diode replaced.

Well, when I got in, the diode had broken off (the plastic corner where the coil wire came through, and the diode was soldered to, was broken off, which probably led to the failure over time). I glued the plastic, added a jumper, resoldered the diode, and all is well again!

Now I have a bag of 150 diodes I don't even need one of. =)
