I was going to do that with one of my games, but I got approved for a replacement playfield.

What I don't understand, how many tens of thousands of play fields did Stern ship before 2016 that had no issues...why all of a sudden?

Not to put any of the new companies down, but one would think that they would be having clear coat issues, not the company who's been doing it for 30 years.

With ghostbusters, there is a setting to lower the power on the ball eject. I have mine set to the lowest setting.

God bless you in taking that apart.

I'd pay someone cause I wouldn't have the patience to do it.

Quoted from desertT1:

Without adjusting the power of the left scoop, it's a nightmare. My players love GB when they are in the zone, but we all have bad games. Hard game for sure.

I lowered mine to around 25, this way it falls directly to the left scoop.

Without adjusting it, more often than not, it would go straight down the middle. You shouldn't be punished for making the shot.

Quoted from Bendit:

Is it? Seems to me that in both cases you can bounce-pass and trap the ball. So to me it's not cheating if it comes out with less power to the left flipper.
Or am I missing something?

Some people adjusted the power setting to stop the ball from going straight down the middle (i.e. - mine machine).

When I first got my game, it would go to the right flipper 100% of the time. Past 2 months, it would go straight down the middle. So I lowered the setting to get it to the left flipper.

It's my belief that you shouldn't be punished for making the shot.

Quoted from freddy:

our wording is way better!

Imperial system is great for everyday life.

Q - "How tall are you?"

A - "1.82 meters..." or "6 feet"

Which one is easier to visualize?

-6

Quoted from Tensikka:

Are you serious? Metric system can be divided infinitely. We have equipment in my workplace where we measure in 1/100 of millimeter. That's precision. Rounding isn't an issue or is same way in imperial system.
Just as Radius118 said. Point being that metrics are just so much easier to understand. It's immediately clear to all, how different values are correlating between each others. Putting things in order based on some metrics is easy.

Are you 6 feet tall or 1.82 meters tall?

Which one is easier to visualize?

Can you take pictures before you re-populate the playfield?

Quoted from xfassa:

Sure. Any specific areas?

Just of the playfield. I'm dying to see how it turned out.
