Glad you are enjoying this great game! Path to Wizard Modes:
Defeat all 3 bosses and both Quests to reach Meglakrakolodonous Rex (Mr Sinister appears in this)
Defeat all 3 bosses again the second time (they will have Sauron helping them now) to reach Clone Multiball followed by Mr Sinister Final Battle!
You don't need to "defeat" Sauron in his multiball in order to progress.
Tip: Try to stack Ninja Multiball while you are in Megladon to help beat him. I also like to battle Megs after Mech Suit when I have accumulated several Booms!
Have fun!

Top half of my Lil DP popped off after 2 years of play. Used epoxy glue and its good as new.

Hi DP Owners! Have been enjoying our Pro for almost 2 years now. Have seen a few questions here about where to find toys for the game. Just refreshed with a few toys. Marvel Legends 6-inch series all available on Amazon. Used small zip ties to tie down and small double sided tape. They stay in place fine even when pulling up playfield. Always fun to spice up games after awhile!

Also...a small but noticeable and free upgrade of apron cards, with many options available for DP (and other games!), at link below thanks to Coindropper

I am having this issue with my NIB TMNT. The ball bumps when it rolls from inlane to left flipper. It really bugs me! Can you explain how to adjust the flipper to be level? What is this toothpick method?

SNIKT tough to hit from cradle but katana makeable. Agree easier if ball is moving...however I hit these just fine at 6.5 pitch.Make sure you are level left to right as well as this can throw off these shots.

took me 2 tries to get it sized right on my printer. well worth the time and also used for my GOTG.

Bro you have improved my life 10x! LOL. It was an easy fix and made a HUGE difference!

All, have been a DP Pro owner for 2 years...love it but looking to spice things up. I have never installed a shaker motor...is it coded well on DP? Can someone describe when it kicks in? Easy to install? Pinball life or Stern shaker?
thanks!

Most important update int he new code that no one is talking about...you can now use single booms when you get a Super Boom. This had always drove me crazy because you were essentially penalized when you got a Super Boom and could not use them individually against Megladon for example. Nice and important update!

Yeah for progression the super boom kinda stunk because for Megladon for example you would only get one "hit" on him while still getting points for the blue lances. But with the new option you can space out your 4 booms to hit him 4 times. Same concept for bosses.

Have owned this game 2 years and still loving it! Genius game design, code, art...all around! New code(s) are awesome an unexpected surprise! Love that MechSuit can be relit as it is super fun. But...would be great if there was a way to adjust when it is re-lit (ie # of weapons). Last night I went into MechSuit and collected enough weapons that it was almost immediately relit after I came out of it. Its a great mode and way to achieve higher scores and collect Booms, but you also don't want to have to endure back-to-back MechSuits. Not a complainnt...a suggestion!

I have a Pro and not looking to part with it...but as a fellow Dad I just have to say that you are an inspiration! Great job Dad! I may steal this idea...and great way to convince the wife why the house needs to more pins! Good luck and hope you find one soon.

Hi. Sorry to hear this! I have not experienced issue #1 so can't help there but sounds like the sensor mechanism in the hellhouse scoop isn't recognizing the ball. For issue #2 i had the same problem. It was an easy fix for me. The two metal pieces under your boom button (easily accessible by removing lockdown bar) are probably touching each other. Just bend them slightly so they no longer touch and then when you press the button down they do touch to make the connection. Could be a different issue but this was mine and super easy fix. Good luck.

Mine does this too. Annoying as its already a tough shot to hit and then it doesn't count when you need it and goes back to plunger! Clearly its physics and seems to be the ball might be catching air according to the others. I may try to lower left flipper and see. thanks for asking the question....have been living within it for 2 years now

Haha! Same here. I mentioned the back to back mechsuits a few weeks ago and folks thought I was trying to brag...I was really stating the facts and the back to back MB can actually kind of get in the way of making progress in modes. That said, in settings you can opt not to collect weapons during MBs which would tone this down naturally.

Great that you were able to diagnose the scoop problem. Let us know if you were able to fix and if both worked!

Yeah this is the one that rejects my right orbit shots on my pro...I really think it is this and not an airball issue. I may try to remove it this weekend especially if its only there to facilitate the prem/LE feature.

Please post updates. I feel like the ball rejections are happening much lower for me right around where that pressed wire is. But this is interesting too...

Haven't removed yet but had several episodes of this shot today. At least on my machine i really think it is the staple thingy that sends ball to the left wall and then the ball slams hard right back into the shooter lane. It does not appear to be hitting bottom of katana in the air at least for me.

OK so I removed the "staple" from right orbit Domino lane thinking this could be the reason for ball rejection causing ball to fall hard back down into shooter lane after a "clunk" sound. Some pics of the removed item for reference. After a few plays I am reporting what a few others suspected that this was not the issue because I still had rejections even with staple removed. I put the staple back (especially since not thrilled about open holes on a playfield. After spending some time under the katana and watching this shot closely, I now believe the ball is hitting the quite sharp round metal screw bracket holding down the katana. Holding a ball under it with my hand there is less than 1/4 inch clearance so any air and it will hit this and create that loud clunk and reject the ball down. I suppose only fix could be a plastic airball protector but not sure how to mount it. A few folks had the same theory so if anyone tried this please post!

Anyone having the playfield coating start coming up near the rollovers? See what I mean just above the word Deadpool in the pic. Any tips for how to fix? I think someone had mentioned mylar but have no idea how to do this or if its worth it. Its really not bad right now but thinking it will get worse over time. thanks all.

Bundy after experimenting and thinking I had a different issue...you were right! I didn't realize how little air was needed but even 1/8th or 1/4 inch air would do it under the katana. Did you add the plastic airball protector and if so any pics?
thanks!

Yes, I tapped it from underneath with a nail punch and then pulled the final bit out from the top of playfield with needle nose pliers. Yes, it dead soften the clunk sound when the ball rounds the corner, but then leaves you with open holes in playfield you'd have to cover. But it did not fix the clunk followed by ball rejection issue which was the main reason for the fix attempt. SO while I was originally convinced the staple needed to come out...I wound up putting it back in.

Thanks so much all! It really does look like mylar lifting to me. It's not a scratch but the mylar actually coming up. But i think PinMonk's solution is something I will look in to either way.

I do think this is the case...so can I just remove the mylar (if just added by factory for extra protection) and replace? I am also looking into PinMonks solution.

Congrats! Hey can you explain what you mean by "bent the forks"? I have been having a weak auto-plunge issue too. Doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it...

Nice! Yes, you would have faced off against Megalakrakalodonoaus Rex!

I have had this problem too and replaced bulbs and works fine now.

All....want to upgrade lighting...Comet upgrade or pinstadium? I know a different price range! Was thinking Comet because I don't feel like DP is the kind of game that would benefit from the brightness of pinstadiums. Thoughts welcome!

Thanks all for the replies!

Hi, Any photos or practical advice on how best to "bend" the forks of auto-plunger without breaking it. I have this same intermittently weak auto-plunge issue. thanks!

So I just fixed this really easily. The ball seemed aligned right in between the forks so I did not bend the forks. But the entire metal auto-plunger had a bit of play to it, it moved around a little each time the ball launched. So when it fired it was sometimes misaligned. I used needle nose pliers to bend the bottom part of the metal plunger where it is connected on the metal hinge to decrease the wiggle room. It is totally fixed now!

Agree. I posted the same annoying issue on this thread a few months back. I actually removed that giant staple thingy by hitting it with needle nose pliers from underneath. The problem persisted, so I reinstalled it. Does seem like if the ball catches a little air under there it may be hitting bottom of the katana. Some folks have made custom airball protector for underneath out of PETG (you can but little squares of it on Amazon for like $10.

I will say (and this could be placebo effect) that I increased my pitch from 6.5 to 6.8 and it "feels" like it is happening less.

anyone happen to have the height of the topper? dimensions online appear to be for the box it is shipped in. I have a STh topper and it fits by a hair in my basement…thanks in advance!

thanks so much! looks like it will fit! much appreciated!

DP is about to be the first pin I have ever owned twice (Pro now Prem)! Gonna get it powder coated…for all of you proud powder owners please share pics of your powder! Need some ideas (I’ve already got alot of red in my lineup so looking for something different!)

Sweet thanks for sharing!

For those of you looking to add the rubbers to the outlane posts they should be found mounted on these red plastics here

same never with this game and I have had a Pro and now Prem. TMNT on the other hand I had magnetization issues but switched to Titan standard pinballs and that resolved it.
