Quoted from dudah:Amazing work! Being it to expo please!
It will be there in the Multimorphic/P-roc booth along with lots of other custom built and rethemed games

Quoted from wisefwumyogwave:Can you get the BFG? please tell me you can get the BFG
That's the plan. Let's see how far I get on the rules and software before expo. It will most likely be very basic this year though
Quoted from bangerjay:Well, this looks awesome
Thanks Jay
I love the orange! Never seen anything like it on a pin before. Looking at it says "fast". "Brutal". *sound of a chainsaw going through demon flesh*
Quoted from Bonnevil69:ive been testing the sounds a lot lately, It will have a bit of doom 2016 music. Trying to find something from the games i can use for callouts. If its all just original doom it would end up being tons of screaming and snarling with gunfire. you would think that's an awesome combination but it gets annoying fast on a pinball machine
Just make sure you use the explosion sound and the death sound from the original.
This is really impressive work. I don't know how you DIY pin builders do this stuff. Even if I had all the free time in the world, the money, and the tools, I'd end up with an ugly nasty ass mess of wires and mechs nailed to a board that would catch fire.

First tip, use screws not nails

Are you using any of the classic DOOM music? There are a lot of excellent modern rock/metal remixes out there that would fit perfectly with the machine. I know there's the Sonic Clang cover of every Episode 1 tune, used in the "Classic DOOM 3" mod for DOOM 3. I've heard quite a few more modern remixes as well that sound badass.
Hey BV69
That is really lookin' good. Impressive combination of ramps both above and below. See you at Expo.

This game is ridiculous in the best possible ways. What an accomplishment, congrats. Can't wait to see gameplay.
This Is super sick, looking forward to seeing more of it, keep up the good work! Someone had to make a doom pinball machine! 
Just wanted to mention I love the lack of shooter lane. Very smart. Seems pointless to have all that real-estate used up if you aren't going to have a plunger-based skill shot.
For a non-wide body, it would open up a lot of free space for a custom pin. You loose space from the lane itself, and the rails. Gotta be like 3" at least there. A lot can be done with that.

I had a similar thought on my last whitewood:
IMG_20150628_192927 (resized).jpgIMG_20150327_183602 (resized).jpg
I wanted a more open area between the slings, and wider lanes, so the shooter lane got thrown out early on, and I just shoot the ball up through the outlane (as I later discovered, similar to SST). To get even more space, I also got rid of the wooden rails on the sides, and just used thinner metal walls everywhere. In some places a curved wall goes within mm of the edge of the playfield.

Now that you mention it, where does the ball get launched from?
Quoted from ForceFlow:Now that you mention it, where does the ball get launched from?
It get's launched via an upwards facing (love that) scoop halfway up the right side, around the loop (like on Getaway) to the upper flipper, if I understand correctly. Probably the only game with a 'reverse' subway?

Interesting design
RIP shooter lanes.

Great project!
If you are looking for Doom sound tracks, consider using the ones for the 3DO version of Doom. They have awesome electric guitar and good drums, and music-wise are, in my opinion the best of the Doom series. This version may not have had the frame rate, but the sounds
For instance, jump to minute 20 and listen to this level, or go to 1hr:59min and listen to that level at the link below:

Man those are some steep dangerous ramps! Knowing you, Id guess you have overpowered coils for those flippers Great metal work!
Very cool design, have you started the software yet? Its going to be a real treat playing my nightmare at Expo. Doom was some serious stuff back in the day.
Quoted from Bonnevil69:Making progress on the mini playfield Made the door mech was kind of a pain but works great
Quoted from zacaj:Probably the only game with a 'reverse' subway?
P^3 launches balls from the back of the playfield, so it has to have some type of 'reverse' subway to send the balls to the back after they drain.
They actual aren't too steep but they are long which is just as dangerous. Can be easily made even if it rides the wall all the way up. And yes strong coils. Why get weak ones when you have so much control over the pulse times. It has a little software done. But still need to do a ton of work before expo. Want to help. Haha
Quoted from Bonnevil69:I am not ready to reveal how my trough system works yet. But I will say it's fully custom
What on this game isn't fully custom? I heard you even molded your own bobbins, wound your own coils, and extruded your own acrylic. I'm still amazed you wove your own stranded wires!

Pfft. Shooter lanes
... and please stop asking for the transistor layout of the P-ROC FPGA. We don't make the chips, we just program them.

Quoted from Bonnevil69:There will be art on clear plastics and the orange will be in the back to give that doom orange fiery glow where it cant take away from the scene as much Some people like it and some people hate the orange. Feedback only helps me make the game better. Thanks for your opinion
Why not make a plastic that has flames designs on it and put it in the back? You can light it with orange LEDs to bring out that orange glow while having a visual look of flames? I think the plastics can really bring out the creativity in a game and a nice design on the plastics would go a long way. Having plain orange plastics seems kind of "meh" to me and looks unfinished.
That's just my opinion and I'm not hating on the game at all, I love what you're doing. But some nice custom plastics would be boss.
Quoted from BloodyCactus:Your metalwork, makes me jealous
That is not my intention Thanks

Quoted from PinPatch:Does the face between flippers gets injured everything a ball drains like in the computer game?
That's the 'god mode' version of the head with the glowing eyes. Ball save & shoot again.
Damn, it looks like the left wireform guide makes the ball come screaming back at the left flipper. The player better be ready when they make that ramp for a quick return. I love it.
Edit: The ride side too, didn't see that at first.

What other games have done a screaming fast design like that? I love the idea of the wireform just dumping it to the flippers without it slowing down.
Big Guns does is, except it is to the slings and not the inlanes.
