Stern, 2016Quoted from Arcade:How hard is that to fix?
THAT WOULD DEMAND A TOTAL CODE RE-WRITE!!!
I don't know man, it's the attention to detail that has been missing for a while in code. Maybe the "official" 1.12 code release will actually have changes and this is some sort of placeholder file. One can hope.
My understanding was 1.12 was released at Chicago Expo to fix issue with selecting the Negative Reinforcement on ESP Ability video mode and freezing the game.

The file size is different so I would guess something changed.
Pretty sure 1.11 stopped the lockups from the video mode already.
Quoted from Arcade:Since the cat is out, I will repost.
I did not have a weak flipper problem so I don't know if 1.12 fixes it or not.
However after about 30 games and one with the glass off I can find nothing new in it.
Still even has the annoying Ballroom error of saying to shoot the purple shots even though they are blue on the playfield.
How hard is that to fix?
We streamed this code last night and my son put up a 6 billion point game,and was only one mode away from "We Believe".
So if you want to see it http://www.twitch.tv/thepinballmafia
where did you get those speaker panels?
Quoted from jar155:Are you sure you don't get more points along the way? I was playing in a tournament and the guy I was playing against got over 60 million from Spooked Librarian. It's how I got knocked out of the tournament, actually. Figured it was either bug (highly likely), or a mulitiplier score.
Quoted from Arcade:Since the cat is out...
let's hope now he will not be crashed by a car while crossing the street
better for him if he had chosen to stay home...
than, 1.11 corrected the video mode bug but NOT the power off left flipper (had this bug here on my pin)
i suppose 1.12 is now OK for that, will play-test more...

I wonder if 1.12 fixed the Slimer getting lost on the LEFT and staying there.
Quoted from PinMonk:I wonder if 1.12 fixed the Slimer getting lost on the right and staying there.
I will check that today. 
And I got the speaker panel cutouts from Speakerlightkits

I agree, but too many people know about it now to bother.
If I found it with no help anyone can. I did the same thing with AC/DC back in the day.
It is not official so download at your own risk.
But after tons of games on it, no fires here.

I meant Slimer getting lost on the LEFT - I fixed the original post.
Quoted from PinMonk:I meant Slimer getting lost on the LEFT - I fixed the original post.
Going to check now.
Yes. It is fixed.
Made the game do a ball search. While he did stay over, he moved back to position on my first switch hit after the ball search. Did not make me drain the ball to go back.

This is a bit crazy but you may have inadvertently saved my moms life with this post.
Because of your post I had to go next door to my parents house to check on the Slimer problem.
After I checked him out and posted I decided to stay a bit and fix another issue.
In that time my mom choked on some food and I had to do the Heimlich on her as my 80 year old dad did not know how.
She is doing well now and I never would have been up there if not for this crazy pinball post I happened to read at the right time.

Wow, that's crazy. Glad to hear she's ok.
Quoted from CaptainNeo:Stern........Saving lives one day at a time!
I know, right?
I came back home after the whole ordeal and jokingly told my wife that Pinball may have saved my mother. lol.
It is just really strange how things can work out like that sometimes.

Chance and circumstance is a weird thing. Glad she's okay!
BTW, 1.12 seems to have fixed the incorrect tech alerts...

Nice catch.
Did not notice that.
Quoted from extraballingtmc:Anyone who had 1.11 with a weak left flipper try 1.12 yet?
still testing (pro model), for now is OK...
Running 1.12 no issues so far...
Did fix the Tech alerts...and have already seen more of the game then I ever have and the new video mode is kinda cool...
Can someone run down the readers digest version of the differences between easy through extra hard as selectable in the settings...

How can you have the new 1.12 code when theres nothing about it on the Stern pages ????
Quoted from Wakky:How can you have the new 1.12 code when theres nothing about it on the Stern pages ????
Change the download URL for 1.11 code to 1.12. Bam.
Quoted from CaptainNeo:I thought 1.12 was littered with game breaking bugs
It better not. I don't think we're going to see another update for a while...

Sterns site still shows 1.11. Where did you find 1.12?
Quoted from CaptainNeo:I thought 1.12 was littered with game breaking bugs
Even if that were true, it has less problems than 1.11, so upgrading is still a plus.
I started a thread to list the things it fixed and the things still broken here:
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/ghostbusters-v112-code-talk#post-3491978
did they at least fix the problem where you can't choose reinforcement without having to worry about having to tilt out to get out of the scene?

That was fixed in 1.11

Hi there,
Is it me or the bonus is waaaayyyy unbalanced? Half of my score is bonus.
The code is currently sucking.
Quoted from colonel_caverne:Hi there,

End of ball bonus is still not a 'gimmee' as you have to work for it by building multipliers. Other things do need work though, like the terror dog hurry ups don't score worth a fart. There's basically no way (I know of) to beat the 75 million default champion score.
Rob
Quoted from CaptainNeo:you sure, because I could have swore I have 1.11 and it happens on mine yet. Now I have to go look.
On a related note, I see no reason to ever play the ESP video mode now since DCTS is far easier points. I really don't like how DCTS was put in the game either.

I love Don't Cross the Streams mode! Great way to beef up the game with new content.
Was hesitant upgrading from 1.05 to 1.11 because I wasn't sure the new rule changes with regard to mode continuation and time out would make it too easy.
Did it over the weekend, and have to admit that overall it makes the game more enjoyable. Even though average scores are higher, it's generally much more satisfying and less furstrating.
So far haven't had any of the bugs that others are reporting.
It's just frustrating that all that has been added to the game is a poorly integrated video mode (which is at least better than the original video mode), and some adjustments. There have been some very minor tweaks to skill shots, but no content has been rolled into the game, and that sucks.
Dwight is onto the next game already. There may be more updates coming, but they're going to either come form a different programmer or they're going to start being even longer in between releases. Boo-urns.

Dang Jar, try and look at the positive side every now and then. It's an awesomely fun pin. Enjoy it.
Quoted from brainmegaphone:I love Don't Cross the Streams mode! Great way to beef up the game with new content.
It's a fun mode but to the earlier poster's point the potential scoring from the two modes is really off balanced and there is no reason why somebody would not choose DCTS. They should alternate modes or something if scoring remains so unbalanced

I dunno. I've gotten something like 200 million off the ESP one. There are good scores, but they take too long, and it's really not that fun since there's no real talent involved.

It's a fantastic game, but the support for it has been really bad.
Quoted from PinMonk:I dunno. I've gotten something like 200 million off the ESP one. There are good scores, but they take too long, and it's really not that fun since there's no real talent involved.
I would change ESP as follows:
You are awarded the points for the level you reach. If you choose to stop, then the points are doubled.

Yeah, but it's about averages. Average 20-30M on DCTS. I must suck at the ESP one then because I feel like I average 2-4M accounting for the 0 point failures.

Rob
Great idea actually. Or maybe not doubled but 33% or something
