Quoted from frolic:To me what is important is not the frequency of the updates (arbitrary "every 2 weeks"), it's as long as Lyman is on BM66 full-time.
Frolic, did you get your BM66LE yet?
Quoted from frolic:Not yet, the truck to Canada is slow this time. None spotted up here.
What is your general impression of BM66?
Ive been hearing mix reviews, mostly positive, but that is mostly from owners of the SLE.
Personally I am excited about it.
Quoted from frolic:I think it will be great, but I'm also "Mr Chill Pill" and am ready for a year long journey with the software.
I'm in the same boat as you. I was on the fence about the game for sometime now. But with Lyman on the code it think he will make it a blast to play. Plus it will be a great pin to mod!
Quoted from jfh:How long are you willing to wait?
A day or two until I get my topper.
Quoted from docquest:Lots of will power to not open it up until code drops. Id be curious to see what the episode/gadget is and what card you got.
Same here! However, i plan to take my time and double check every connection, screws, especially under the batmobile.
HOLY NEW BATCODE!

V0.65 - January 11, 2017
========================
- Added/implemented new Joker standup target switch.
- Added Penguin crane lamp to the background lamp effect for the
penguin mode.
- Changed the priority of the background lamp effect for the fire button
so certain effects (HSTD initials, etc.) will be displayed.
- Fixed Catwoman speech; changed the Joker explosion.
- Added video/effects for major villains.
- Fixed issues with the major villain modes (one player's work
affecting another's).
- Increased replay and high score defaults.
- Fixed a bug in the Penguin mode that was causing state to be carried
over from player to player.
- Added sounds and speech.
- Fixed initialization of major villain advance.
- Added settings so it is not so difficult to restart the major villain
modes after failing to answer the Batphone.
- Disabled some background lamp effects for the turntable when the
turntable is in a different position and the shots cannot be reached.
- Disabled the Batmobile spinner switches so they do not register unless
the Batmobile spinner is facing the player.
- Improved ball handling for the turntable lock.
- Smoothed player transition animations.
- Fixed a bug where the player 4 score is highlighted at start of a new
4 player game after completion of a prior 4 player game.
- Tweaked position of 2 player scores to avoid line of background color
showing through at bottom.
- Added frame label to one player layout.

jackpot.

- Added villains captured display effects.
- Lane change no longer allowed for skill shot.
- Added turntable lock post test.
- Added settings for number of shots needed to light the super jackpot

- Put background display effects in for minor villains and multiball.
- Added support for additional score frame backgrounds.
- Added ability to set text color in text bubbles.
- Added custom text bubble colors for each villain mode.

power-up.
- Reworked Batphone hurry-up scoring.
- Reworked the infrastructure for the villain vision background display
effects.
- Cleaned up Batphone hurry-up so timers will be held.
- Reorganized the Batphone hurry-up start to take less time so it doesn't
tie up the display for such a long time at end of ball or when mystery
and/or minor villain select is trying to run.
- Removed extra gadget button dispatch that was causing double gadgets
to be applied.
- Fixed extra ball so that it lights correctly.
- Playfield multiplier from atomic pile has been changed to only be
awarded if the atomic pile is lit.
- Adjusted background lamp effect priorities so the background lamp
effect for the combos runs on top of the modes.

corrected.
- Updated score frame for playfield multiplier status.
- Added adjustment check for major villain mode super jackpot award using
the gadget button (default=NO).
V0.57 - December 15, 2016
=========================
- Initial version.
Quoted from frolic:It's probably been "beta" tested already, but sub 1.0 tells me that there are game features not programmed yet.
Well its progress and big file at that.
Now I will unbox #66 and it happens to be episode #66

Quoted from taz:I'm hanging in there, but need some code love. I'm not greedy, just activate one of the following: Gadgets, Minor Villains, or Batgirl. I've already positioned my USB drive ready for the new download.....
Same here!

Quoted from taz:I was just looking again at this thread title, which is basically a question, when will the code be done. I was previously wondering the same, a bit cantankerous about the progress of code so far, looking purely at the numbers, as .70 is barely a D grade compared to 1.0 an A, in old school grading obviously. Since playing .71 and enjoying Bat Turn mode I've changed my outlook more positively to what game play master stroke improvement opportunities might lie in that 30% delta. So now I think I wouldn't have a problem if Lyman kept doing .01 increments every 5 weeks, providing that they're as substantial as .71 turned out to be.
Bat Turn mode was a huge out of the blue surprise that really added some meat to the game and brought out more of the cool campiness of the theme. I think a few more innovative additions like that will take the game to a new level. Imagine a similar Batgirl mode to stack with and help capture villains, for example. Or building a Batbelt through a gadget hurry up mode, or so many other possibilities based upon 3 years of shows. Anyway, now that I've been reminded of Lyman's innovation, my patience reservoir is now restocked and I'm excited about the game again.
Well said!

Quoted from legionsoup:Off topic - where'd you get that back glass? I tried google and couldn't find it. Is it custom? Very cool!
On topic - It's gonna feel like a different experience after the next code update, and I can't wait! I check their website a couple times every day just to be sure I don't miss it.
Yes its custom! thank you! Wait until you see TWD alternate trans-light I am making. Its epic!
