This is what I did and it has seem to work pretty good. Every once in a while I get an air ball but it hasn't landed on the ship or in a dead spot. Good luck!

Nice Work, its a thing of beauty. Now for some side mirrors...and other mods maybe. IMG_0853.JPGIMG_0856.JPG

I had to reflow/add solder to about half the opto boards. The wires were barely hanging on..

Has anyone else done this? I WANT it but not sure how difficult it is. I am not a super computer guy, I know enough to get in trouble. Feedback would be much appreciated. I did read through most of the steps but still seems a little cloudy. Thanx in advance

Not going to make that, sorry. Mine is "out for delivery" though!!!!

What is your pitch?

I recently moved most of mine machines around to try and fit another piece and when I did I put the bubble on the pitch level in the middle. Good grief, either my level is off or this thing is at an amazing pitch. I have to be honest though, my POTC is a whole new game...and I like it! Definitely plays faster and I don't seem to get as many stray bumps that kind of lollygag down the drain. I am interested in what everyone else is doing and how their POTC is set up.

Oh, and my first colorDMD is awesome. I can't wait for the firmware to be released!

I don't think that has ever happened...ever. are you missing a rubber? Is your table flat?

This WONDERFUL Pinball machine is the longest standing machine in my house and the day after I brought it home I started tearing it down. When I did all my little personal touches and started putting it back together I put the sneeze guard in the cab and under the playfield and that is where it still sits. Now, I will say that I have had probably 6-8 air balls most of which land back on the rum ramp. At the beginning I had a couple that landed and stayed on the deck of ship. I adjusted the pirate target just a small amount and have not had lost ball since. I think the choice could go either way (and it's definitely not bickering over) and either way is fine. My personal opinion is the machine looks nicer without the sneeze guard so I leave it off.

I believe you have to use the shaker kit for STTNG…if I remember correctly.

I am very interested in what you think about having a shaker in POTC. I thought about doing it some years ago but worry it won't fit the game play. Please share once you get the shaker installed and played a few games.

I am sure I can cut one myself but I like your design and since you came up with it I would like to reasonably pay for you to share your idea.

I looked through the past posts but didn't see anything relative to the issue I am having. Once I have completed port royal I shoot the ball back to start the tortuga multiball and once the ball reaches the spinner it acts as if I have already made all four balls onto the spinner. The timer stops, the ball is released from the spinner and it displays all scores quadrupled. I have gone in and tested the switches, no issues. I am wondering if there can be a correlation to me installing the colordmd. A little baffled here. Has anyone seen this before. Thanx in advance.

Appreciate the questions. I checked most of the switches in the entire game...especially the optos. It's quite bizarre really. It works right when completing the port royal but gets haywire for the multiball part.

No ideas on this? Thanx in advance.
