Congrats on receiving your new pins! Curious, how long did y'all have to wait before you received it? I put a deposit down on one 3 months ago and with the parts shortages and backlog of production runs, I'm hearing many different timelines for when they will ship. Yes, I reached out to my distro so I'm not looking for someone to point out the obvious, just curious on your own personal timelines for when you bought/deposited and when you received.
Thanks in advance for your insights.

Quoted from Kronnix:

I had previously asked a distro to put one on hold for me last August (2020) and checked base with them several times between then and March. Each time they confirmed I was still on the list but not once did they ever reach out to me or let me know that I had my hold filled. Because of the lack of communication and rarity of the game I started shopping around and found a new local distributor. In March he put me first on their list to get one. I paid for it 2 weeks ago and got it on Monday this week. I feel like some of the larger distributors are just too busy to give the kind of customer service I need. I can HIGHLY recommend Kyle at Custom Pinball!! He was in constant communication with me on the status of my game and always responded to my questions promptly.

Thanks for the insights, can you tell me where Custom Pinball is located? Googled it but "custom pinball" is too generic a phrase. thanks in advance.

about to join the club and thinking about mods to add. anyone have any experience with adding any UV lighting, trough, back box, etc.. to add a glowing effect? curious if any of the art pops when hit with black lighting. thanks in advance.

Just joined the club. Can someone tell me what the action button does for this game. I know the obvious ones like shooting from the VUK and stopping the wheel but there's another "press" that gives you a jackpot value or something? What's the strategy on this?

Thanks in advance.

#10839 2 years ago
Quoted from docquest:

If you collected the ray gun from the trunk you can shoot it via the action button and it will collect one of the lit shots you need to make in what ever mode you are in.

ahh got it, thanks man!

Rehashing an old issue but new owner...my VUK works probably 60% of the time, shooting across to the bank target. other times, dribbles out like described in previous posts regarding this issue. Does the fix ensure the balls shoots out across the PF and hit the bank with every shot? trying to decide if it worth tinkering with or not. Lastly, I haven't read every post for the VUK fix but am I reading correctly that you have to drill new holes in order to reposition the mech?
thanks in advance.

#11010 1 year ago

anyone know where to find an updated rulesheet? Tilt forums hasn't been updated since 2019. thanks

#11012 1 year ago
Quoted from Mad_Dog_Coin_Op:

The VUK needs to work 100% percent of the time. It wasn’t important in the being but became so when the code matured. The VUK needs to hit the flashing target to finishing off a dead head. There could be several things wrong with your VUK. One of the more common problems does require you do drill a new hole. You need to take a closer look at it and determine what your issue is.

okay, thanks for the insight. for clarification, before i start looking under the hood, you said there could be several things wrong. Is it all related to the positioning of the mech or is there something in addition to that? trying to not sift through 220 pages in the forum. thanks again.

Quoted from Betelgeuse:

You have to have the 7th haunt window lit when you shoot the house to start the mode. It's the window on the far right that can't be lit until you have the key. From there it seems to pick from one of the three secret haunts at random.

You will have to have the window before or after the far right window lit because when you flip the ball, it will change windows. You can also time it with backdoor skill shot as long as the house is ready. when doing it from a plunge, you have the secret room window lit because you don't use a flipper to hit the back door. secret room mode is super fun. you can watch Hurry Up pinball's last stream of EHOH and he walks through it, not sure exactly when but I believe it is within minutes 20-25 of the stream.

Made some toxic giant leeches to dress up the game. you can check them out in my shop
https://pinside.com/pinball/market/shops/1500-pin-modster/08337-elvira-s-toxic-giant-leeches

Quoted from freebeer:

Ok, just got my EHOH. People can start remaking MODs now.

I've got some giant leeches ready to ship for you. I have UV trough lighting that helps the glow paint pop. working on another mod but i'm not a professional, just love EHOH and wanted to add some things to it.

can check out my store page.
https://pinside.com/pinball/market/shops/1500-pin-modster/08337-elvira-s-toxic-giant-leeches

also, i've had my fair share of games in and out of my lineup and have only purchased pinstadiums once, and it is for my EHOH and they do help with the lighting effects. I like stuff that glows or is UV reactive and unfortunately, the EHOH art isn't very UV reactive but the pinstadium recommended settings add a nice purple glow to the game. is it worth the cost of pinstadiums? probably not for every table but I can say it works well for EHOH.
