Premium, no question. Disco Loops mode, working disco ball, and drop targets are worth the upgrade.

Does anyone have a before and after if the anti-sway target. I never heard of that product before.

How do you install it?

You just unscrew the existing target switch stack from the target bracket and replace it with the anti-sway version. Takes maybe 5-10 minutes total to remove the target from the playfield underside, make the swap, then re-install.

I question. The pro model is awesome as well. I don't believe there is enough of a difference between the two to justify the price delta. If the criteria is simply which game has more to offer, sure, the premium (as it should). When cost difference becomes a variable, there is definitely a judgement call.

Couldn’t decide whether to post this in mods or in this thread. I think it will be more greatly appreciated here! I recently got back into 3D Printing. I’ve made a couple of simple aesthetic mods for my Pro. I also love being able to immediately print solutions to problems. Even though my Snikt! target appears to have the stabilizing bracket, it still wasn’t aligned properly. So I printed some washers to shim the mount. Shooter Knob will be baked out tomorrow. Hope you guys like them!

I am less bored with a Premium due mostly to the disco modes. That is worth the price delta to me for sure. I hated the Pro, but that was on earlier code. I haven't had any interested in going back to test that theory.

Fair enough. I completely understand enjoying a premium as it definitely has more to offer. Just stating that the pro is an awesome game as well for those not wanting to pony up the difference.

got a LE 1 month home (finished it)...
played a PRO on location (finished it)...

and while i was intially thinking PREM/LE the better, finally must admit that i dont really like the full left loop (with more than sometimes balls being stopped/blocked at the moving ramp)

PRO is more than OK on this title

That is definitely a part of the question is the premium worth the cost

Only you can answer that. The only true gameplay difference is the diverter ramp. Everything else is bells and whistles.

Used some of today's self-isolation time to finish up my Comet GI upgrade. I only installed two of the four provided spotlights to brighten up the center of the playfield. I know it's been posted before, but this is a must-have upgrade in my opinion.

They are there on top of the sling plastics. They look like they stick out a lot further than ideal.

The kit swaps out all of the red and clear white GI bulbs with frosted sunlights, and includes 4 spotlights that mount on the slings. Even without the spots, getting rid of the red & clear whites made a huge difference.

Maybe check DP adjustment 51 "disable control gate" mine is set to factory "No". My Katana always releases one ball at a time.

It may be a katana sword switch issue otherwise.

Seems like my extra ball setting was already on auto but still gives me extras at 10. I think I’ll just change it to 35

I had this issue and observed that the post was slowly moving to full height and during multiball, the post just wasn't returning to fully up to individually release each ball. The spring tension looked good, so I figured that there was just more friction on some element of the post mech. I ended up fixing it by just adding a bit of Super Lube PTFE lubricant to make sure it returned to the fully up position quickly and easily - after which it worked just fine and has continued to for months.

Does anyone know an easy way to tighten the white GI bulb here, under the ramp? Mine is loose and flickers, but I don’t want to dissemble the lift up ramp to get to it, and under the play field the bulb socket is soldered versus screwed to the underside of the play field. Thanks for any suggestions.

Every now and then the connections of the lights loosen up. Especially obvious on the top right BAM! lights. I always just push in every connection to fix this but is there a main connection that always causes this or a way to prevent this in the future?

Anyone else ever gotten a "fast drain multiball" where a freshly plunged ball drains very fast down the right outlane... so fast it kicks back up into the flippers and you save the ball... and ball save was still on so another ball kicks out!

I've had that happen a couple times now!

A "regular" fast drain save a few times as well.

Happens often enough that I can predict it and get the flipper out of the way to save it.

At home, I recently had the ball drain on the right and rip right back up the left back into play. Not during a ball save scinario but exciting nonetheless!
