I've owned it for just over a year now. The game just continues to be fun. I added the home roms about a month or two ago and really like them. It just added a new twist to it. The outlanes are now open all the way with no lower rubber, just to make it a bit tougher.

I had thought about moving it out when WOZ comes in, but I'll probably find another spot in the house to put DM so I can keep playing it. Just a solid fun game.

Oh boy! After almost 3 years I'm finally ripping this thing apart. It's needed a good cleaning for a while now. What a jigsaw puzzle!

It is way dirtier than I expected. I know it's my most played game, but damn:

It took longer than I expected. I also called in a friend to fix a couple of the hairier issues. Of course the scoop was broken, so I had that (and a spare scoop) TIG welded. A smattering of NOS parts, plastics, a wireform, and I finally have the correct supports under the claw.

So now it is the whole "Play, tweak, play, tweak" thing. It is a lot faster, and what was my most played game is just looking at even more play now.

After 8 years, I’m out. Demo Man was my most played game for quite a few years. I just loved the flow of the game. But like every pinball machine I’ve ever owned, eventually I played so many games on it that it no longer excited me. That took about 6 years of hard play. So the last couple years, it got less and less play. And the last year was just when other people were at my house. So it was time to go. No regrets. I really loved that darn game.

I don’t think I’ll miss it, because I’ve played it so many thousands of times. But if I see one at someone’s house, I’m sure I’ll enjoy it.

Quoted from Jason_Jehosaphat:

Customized Sound ROM?
I'm wondering how challenging it is to make a custom sound ROM for Demo Man.
With all due respect, hearing Stallone's roar/yell to mark every jackpot is annoying.
My instinct is to reach for Pinball Browser, but I realize that software won't work on a game of this vintage.
What are my options? Do I have to pay someone to make me a custom sound ROM? If so, whom?
Thanks.

Yes, you need to buy a Pinsound board. Then you are just changing WAV files on the sd card.

Otherwise, well someone made the HOME version of the ROMs with swears. However, I would think getting a custom one done would be much more expensive than a Pinsound board.

(no, not associated with them, but I own a couple of them)

Quoted from Jason_Jehosaphat:

I can use Pinball Browser to make a new/modified SD card for the board, yes?

There is no need for Pinball Browser in this case. Pinball Browser is for editing the bin files (I ignore that it handles spike now because I hated editing spike games).

For the PinSound board, you can just load the SD card from the download. That will have a bunch of directories, and each will have the WAV files directly in it. You can just remove the WAV that is there, and drop in a different one. So in your case, you would find the offending scream, and then just replace it with sound from Sandra Bullock saying "You really licked his ass" or something else

It will make more sense if you download the current gamesound for the board. You will see the structure, and it is pretty straightforward.

Quoted from dbb143:

Help please! I love my demo man (by far my favorite game) but I'm having ground short issues suddenly. I wrote a tech post about it but not sure how to directly link it here.

This is the link to your tech question.

Quoted from dbb143:

Thank you DaveH is it just copy and paste web link? Didn't know if there was a built in forum topic link function on pinside forums.

Yup, just copy and paste. Marketplace ads can be embedded.

Quoted from The_Pump_House:

My DM has 50026 Home-6 rom. I can't turn off free play. Is there some other setting besides A3 17 (which is set to no) or is this the ROM. If it's the ROM which ROM version should I get for quarter play

The Home ROM can only be set to freeplay. There is no setting that can change that. The standard version (L-4) would switch it to normal. However, you will lose the swearing which is only in H6.
