I wonder if this could be a problem with the sdcard?

Rob

I've had my Pro unit reboot a 2 times since i upgraded to 1.12, and then once more after i took it back to 1.11. Only happened on really good games where i was getting high score, lots of extra balls. Couldnt find a pattern around modes or any particular switch or coil. I reset my game to factory settings a few days ago and havent had the problem since. I also did the Left scoop fix that Stern put a bulletin out for on Dec 30, so not really sure what was the cause, or if I still have the issue but just havent played enough to come across it again. I've put up a 3.5 Billion, and a 5.5 Billion game since i reset and did the scoop fix, so i feel like that is promising, but i wont count myself out of the woods until i go a week or two and it hasnt happened. Note that my DMD would actually say 'Game Restarting' when it would do the reboot. Yours doing the same? or just cutting out and going dead?

I'm still on 1.10, but have experienced the resets during games with multi balls going and stacked modes (basically what others here are reporting with 1.12). Haven't seen a reset in a long time, but each time the game was going crazy with action before a reset. At any rate, it doesn't seem to have been introduced with 1.12.

Like you said in a long time. Maybe 1.12 made the reset problem worse. No resets on mine ever and I'm on 1.11.

no resets on mine ever and i'm on 1.12.

1.12 and never reseted

a small sthings i've forgotten to recal for the code in 1st topic, its the bonus multiplier at max X20...
pity in a way, as no max would have been cool too, but OK i can understand its the way Dwight want it (as in GOT)
and not sure what PKE lanes gives after X20 (just nothing ? or points ? or ...) i have to check this with hands to be sure (until someone already did it ?)

I could have sworn I had a x21 or 22 the other day...

But from what ive seen, most pins max out the multiplier at some level...

Updated to 1.12 and I'm still having the same issue with no extra ball being lit for both the Scenes Completed and Ghosts collected setting. When setting is changed to any value other than "auto" for either of these, the extra ball does not light.

Anyone know what other setting I may have my game on other than default that is affecting this? Works just fine on "auto" but I'm getting frustrated when it gets all the way up to having to complete 7 scenes to get the extra ball and 100+ ghosts.

FYI - I had the same problem with my GOTLE (setting for the extra ball lit based on how many houses were completed) and wouldn't be surprised if they were related.

+1 with T-800, experienced that few days ago... than settings back to "factory"

other problem just noticied, as my son laught at me saying "how you still did know that" ... f*cking son lol :

ok than : right scene-ladder was completed, center scene-ladder was completed, than left scene-ladder-scoop was ready, with ball on my letft flipper, to just not do a post past and collect the waiting SUPER JACKPOT, i did reverse shoot for it, and than ball coming on right flipper to aim left scoop, which i did, but scene didnt start... WTF !? scoop was OFF
and than, when you shoot a already completed ladder, code still consider you will go for that ladder, but of course as it completed nothing happend, except making others ladders to being OFF... :/

another forgotten small point which really needs to be corrected & added to this topic :

when playing a new game (while pinball was not set OFF/ON), sometimes the skillshot (in main scene shoots) is not "start scene"...
of course its a bug, as some others gifts could be fun, but not the "+10% of the score" when you actually get 0 point !

let's suppose its another (...) "IF THEN" variable not being set to initial state, very easy to correct

I like the high multiplier counts on Dwights games.

Rob

If Dwight's reading.. I would like to see an menu option for awards that currently show add credit , include an option for extra ball.
Home players in free-play mode can only really benefit from an award of extra ball.

........

UPDATE RIGHT FLIPPER:
in regards to my right flipper sometimes not holding and sometimes not flipping at all, i have replaced the coil, eos, cab switch, node boards and the issue still exists. BUT.... tonight i put code 1.05 back in and played 5 games. so far the right flipper is fine.
this isn't a WEAK flipper, its the flipper doing just as stated above. its always strong when it works.
this started with 1.11 and remained in 1.12. didnt know if it was a coincidence or not when i changed code.
its looking like it is code and still remains in 1.12.
this gb pro was an early release (march 2016) so maybe its something to do with early releases?
will report if it fails again with 1.05

mmm, just played a game with v1.12 shot the scoop while negative reinforcement was lit, hit both flippers to hurry up the animations, result was that the ball was thrown out while the flippers were dead, then the video mode started and when I reached the fifth good guess 'wow, five out of five' the video mode stopped, my bonus was count and the next ball was launched, WTF??

...

finally, now i know that what we're writing here did really serve in a positive way to the guy who's behind the scene
tanx again D.

let's continue to share & expose what we're experiencing with this game

Played three games in a row yesterday where the end of game score was under 30,000,000 points. But each game had the player enter initials for the Terror Dog mode with a new high score on each game. 75,xxx,xxx on the first, 79,xxx,xxx on the second game and 85,xxx,xxx on the third game. Then I cycled the power and it was okay again. So something got messed up keeping track in there. But the screen now shows 85M as the terror dog high score.

How do you know?

Hello,all,been playing my GB/PRe now for 2 weeks with the 1.12 code.I sure don't care for the scream!!So far,so good! Just got MidnightMadness mode,6 ball multyball all its own! quite a challenge! If anyone finds out how to program out that scream feature,please let me know,Thanks!!

You can turn it off in your game settings.

So does anyone think that Ghostbusters gameplay will change much from what is in the game today? Should we expect any additional modes or additions to existing modes?

I feel that the games theme, layout, and its toys have a lot more potential left that can be brought out through more code updates.

It does have more potential but sadly I think it's done except for minor updates.

I think the base rule set is solid and won't be tweaked to much except for enhancements.

I do feel that some modes will be added and they will better implement the use of the cool toys

I do hope the multiballs get better rules....

Rob

Me too. I feel like I shouldn't keep my hopes up, but it sure could make the game a classic.

Or points, but I'm not sure how much you get. I don't think it's anything 'special'..... pardon the pun

Rob

Yep. It is one of the game's coolest features, though!

I think the rules have a good solid base. The only thing I would really like to see added in is something more to do with collecting the gear. it is some good points, but as far as adding in the four pieces, I think there should be something tied with that.

Personally, I think we will only see some minor tweaks and maybe minor additions moving forward. There is so much work to be done in other areas, I don't see them devoting much more time to GB. Hopefully I'm wrong but even if it stopped at 1.12 I'd be happy with my investment in my Ghostbusters (Premium)-le

and, agree, nothing worse than having a solid "normal" multiball interrupted by that annoying Mass Hysteria "double flip for luck" multiball.

In my mind, I don't think they have to add anything, but I would like some refinement to what is in the game, like collecting items and the multi balls.

I agree, although those targets do significantly increase PKE values during PKE frenzy.

Nice he listens to the "constructive complaints" over here. I'm referring to the warning sound added to MH flipper reversal. That's going to please a lot of people (I hope). Good job!

I know with TSPP I simply reverse my arms and it essentially looks like I'm humping the machine... hey it's a real crowd pleaser!

1.13 is there
well, the most important is "i know"...

now lets hope for more, as tweaks concerning gameplay
tanx D. for reading us, i now believe again that GB could become a masterpiece

That is a very nice code update. Esp the flippers.

there is an issue that exists any code after 1.05 on the PRO. if you are using a ticketless redemption setup.
The right flipper sometimes will not flip and sometimes will not hold if it does flip. other times its fine. it 100% for sure is software as i just installed a ticketless system in a brand new GB and it does the same exact thing. code 1.05 no flipper issue even with ticketless system.

have you tried with 1.13 ?

yes, any code after 1.05 including 1.13

Did you contact Stern?

Rob

yes

Looking for code version 1.05 or 1.10. Please pm me if you still have them. Having the the right flipper problem with version 1.13.

I may have the earlier versions, but for premium only. I'll check when I get home tonight
