First post on Pinside. New #Elvira HOH owner here, really love it. First time I have done an upgrade to software code on a machine. Made a new SD card and it is working fine - went from .99 to 1.00

Now a silly question, I saw in the notes that there was a filter for the bad words.

Per the code updates, v 91 had this:

- Removed vulgar swearing from the deadhead speech. These will be added
back in the next release with a setting to disable/bleep them out.

On .99 (I got the machine with .99 installed) I had many bad words when playing. I found them funny, had a few balls drain when I heard them the first time and started laughing (this machine overall is just so entertaining with the call-outs, and I have barely scratched the surface of the rules). After the upgrade to 1.00 there seemed to be less of the bad words. The Sgt Jarhead for sure had one of his phrases toned down a bit.

.99 seemed to have no filters.

Most of the time I am playing where no one will be offended and would want filter only if younger family members come to visit Scrolled through all the menus and did not see a setting. Was wondering where it may be located, or perhaps the good "bad" words no longer around?

Quoted from Hayfarmer:

There's a 1.01 code now

Downloaded earlier today, still need to install that one, but did not notice in the notes. But looks like some other nice changes.

Quoted from Butterflygirl24:

Yes, some folks were complaining. So the "bad" words were taken out...Hopefully in the future they will be put back in or at least have an adult mode that you can turn on if you so desire!
Phoebe

Saw the note about the filter for .91 and figured .99 had that all resolved, since there was a mention of the filter being added at some point in the future. And when I heard the bad words in .99 figured it was there

Still a terrific game, without the bad words. But the first time Sgt Jar Head came out with his line. LOL. And the more mild words (really Sgt Jarhead had the only really bad one) were funny. I have not heard some of the double entendres I caught earlier. I think I have played enough for them to have showed up at least once since I updated, but there is such a great library of call-outs it seems there is at least one thing new each time I play. I have about 250 games on it so far. Only heard the Hendrix line once.

#5910 3 years ago
Quoted from Hayfarmer:

What is the hendrix line? I did hear bat shit crazy yesterday but no f bomb from sgt

"Let me stand next to your fire." I really smiled at that one.

The Sgt Jarhead F-Bomb is just F now - three letters short... in the line about a ball. (Don't want to spoil it for those who do not know the line. It is a funny one.)

So still on 1.0 and Sgt Jarhead had the full word on my recent play. So there seems to be the not full word and fill word version of the bomb word

Quoted from Rob_G:

With the game off, reseat the SD card on the main board. If that doesn't work, take the SD card out and reload it with a fresh SD card image downloaded from the Stern website.
The same happened to my game a few weeks ago.

I have started making a couple of cards while I am going through the motions. The SD cards are inexpensive enough to have a back-up. I also am keeping older ones, just in case I need to roll-back for whatever reason.

Quoted from grabul:

Hello,
made my own design of a new crypt facade printed in 3d.
The print consists of five skull heads having leds in the eyes.
The logo of dead head signboard is iluminated from behind by the existing led in the crypt.

[quoted image]

That is so cool. I am impressed by the talent and creativity I see here, just amazing.
