Quoted from Kredmore:

Picked up a Getaway a couple of months ago, love the game more with unlimited play at home. Have a question of course, have tried so much already, thought I would post here for any additional thoughts.
I was watching game play video, and saw players go up the left ramp, and then put the left flipper up. Ball jumps over to the right flipper for another left ramp shot. Smooth. In my game, the ball dribbles off the left flipper in the same scenario. I have tried everything I can think of. Mainly to increase ball speed. wire ramp alighment, lane divider alignment, new/smaller slingshot rubber, adjust the inline guide, align flipper, tried both low and high, different flipper rubbers, rebuild flippers earlier, level game/increase pitch. Out of ideas.....
See 2:13 of this video:

Quoted from Kredmore:

yes, I saw the bump in the 2nd video (no bump in the first video). I noticed my machine was a bit out of level tonight when I checked, lower on the left, so re-leveled and when up a bit more to see the impact to this scenario. And there it is - the ball moves properly over to the right flipper each time as expected. I think all the other items have some minor impact too (bump, flipper rubber, flipper adjust, inline guide adjust, etc.), but the most impact was the level. Appreciate the replies.

Quoted from Spacemanratso09:

Have two 9k + games sitting next to the Getaway and all I want to do is play this game how fucked up is that

Quoted from PinJim:

I got flamed hard by supporting the over-the-rainbow look of some games. IMHO, it's a personal choice. Personally, it's very game specific. My STTNG looks great with a purple hue. I tried the same on TZ and can't wait to remove it. My HSII is cool white, which I think looks great. But to each their own. Frankly, I don't care what color you paint your house or what color shirt you wear. To each their own.
My cell camera does an awful job photographing my rainbow games. They always look over saturated. Not sure if there's a way to adjust the iphone camera to make it look more real-life.....

Quoted from Da-Shaker:

Tantrum, you make this machine even more enjoyable. Thank you and your prices are on point.

Quoted from golfergordy:

I imagine that the next time I install side art blades (which will be my 2nd time) the process will go more smoothly than it did the 1st time. Has anyone used these ( https://www.pinballlife.com/interior-cabinet-protector-blade-set.html ) to protect art blades? And, if so, what do you think of them? Does installing & removing them every time you raise the pf become a pain-in-the-butt ?

Quoted from jrcmlc:

I'm not sure there was a prize for slowest.

Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:

I'm retooling the magnetic field mechanism on mine to get faster times. Only issue is it required me to add a secondary power supply to the pin.
Here are the magnets I went with:

Quoted from AlexRogan84:

All this talk of gameplay and multiballs and jackpots and I thought I better have a few games myself. Had my second highest score ever at 1.19 billion. Had the Superjackpot up to 175 million and choked at least a few times with legit chances to get it and never did, lol. Did realize that the relighting of the superjackpot by going back up the supercharger caps at 50 loops. The game keeps adding 10 loops each time you score a jackpot to get the next one, but it seems like it won't go higher than 50 loops. Crazy game.
Anyone cracking the highscores on my Getaway is going to need at least a billion to do it...

Quoted from 7oxford:

In my getaway the up/down post releases all the locked balls instead of one at a time. Can anybody advise me of a fix or adjustment I can make for this?

Quoted from jrcmlc:

Mine does not ever do one at a time, never has. New polaris balls, or ninjas, whatever junk was in it when I bought it, etc...mine just dumps them all at the same time.

Quoted from AlexRogan84:

Nicely done!
Game looks great. I like seeing games in mostly original condition with only a few subtle, tasteful mods.
Are those art blades? Which ones did you get?

Quoted from 7oxford:

Question. Dialling in my Getaway. I see people mention that the ball returning from the left ramp can be ski jumped from the left flipper onto the right flipper. This is how my mate’s plays too. However on mine, the ball seems to lose a lot of momentum either in the left in lane or as it hits the left flipper. If you hold the left flipper up, the ball will just dribble off the end and go down the center out hole.
Pitch is 6.7 degrees.
Flipper bat is aligned just above the marker
Any tips appreciated

Quoted from DystopicPinball:

Hi everyone,
I finally managed to purchase a pinball machine that I had wanted to include in my collection for a long time: GETAWAY!
After an in-depth review of the electronic part I dedicated myself to my favorite part: aesthetic modding!
Here are the changes made:
- custom external graphics designed and printed by me
- donut heaven designed and printed by me
- supercharger mod designed and printed by me
- mountains printed by me
- pin2dmd with redrum colorization (fantastic!)
- playfield protector
That's all for now, I'll add some stickers and scorecards soon.
If you are interested in more detailed photos of the mods and graphics, please visit my gallery at dystopicpinball.com
If you like some mod and are interested in a replica, write to me via email or private message.
thanks!
