I used my phone to record all my settings, put in the SD Card and went through each setting to match how I had them. Sucks that Stern doesn’t make the USB save option universal to all tables.

Anyway...running the newest Cleland mod and it is IMHO better than the first one.

But I’ll be messing around with PB and see if I can outdo him.

In the early 2000s I had a funk & hip hop band and have seen Parliament 3 times sooo I might be biased!
But now that Star Lord has his Milano back I’m sure you will craft a custom cool Groot MB mix!

When I get my version pieced together I’ll post the song list and where I inserted them. I love the work you guys have done in making GOTG way too much fun to play.

I'd love this version - much better than the same song looped three times! Fully support -

I created a Parliament 9 minute mix for groot. Flashlight and makin' mine the P funk.....tearin the roof off!

Just got a GOTG Pro... And put your sound mod on it directly ! What a game with that, it sounds like a non-stop jukebox !
Many thanks for what you have done here !

That could be reallllllly cool too

We must hit you by PM to have links now ?

Welcome to the club! Cleland version is great, but I find myself switching between that and the Applejuice version frequently.. After hundreds of plays, I start to lean more towards the latter which only adds authentic movie lines and then a ton of songs to the mix tape in between modes, but keeps the mode soundtrack intact - the mode songs start to become really repetitive after a while. Give that one a try too.

Thanks mcvetyty , i will try it

Trying to download the applejuice file for the Pro, but keep getting network error after the file appears to complete.
Anyone help please.

Can you share the Applejuice download link?
I would like to try it in my GOTG as well.
Plus I can see if it will download cleanly on my Macbook (or if I too get a network error).

Posts #581 and #514 explain how it differs from all the other versions out there.

Thank you!
It downloaded fine on my Mac and I'm currently using Etcher to burn it to a 16GB SD card.

Good morning! I just did the sound mod, and I guess I did something wrong The game will boot and the sounds are there, but i am getting the "Node board 9 not found". I swapped the card back to stock, and it works fine. Can anyone tell me what I did wrong? Thanks!

Hmm.. This should not have been a result of the new SD card - the only thing these updates do is replace sound files within the code. Node board 9 connects to the primary board through an ethernet (internet) cable - perhaps it just got bumped during install/re-install? Push on the ethernet cables to make sure they're seating properly and try it again?

What I thought as well. But it's duplicating results repeatedly. I reseated all the cables. I am going to look at it again this weekend to see what I can figure out. I thought maybe it was something someone else has seen. Thanks!

Is it possible you have different code versions between the two? Perhaps one of the code changes updated the Node board and now an older version doesn't work?? I don't know the Spike Systems very well, just throwing out possibilities based on my experience with other electronics that have bootloaders, etc.

Maybe you are using LE code on a pro or vice versa

If you’re using the same SD card for both stock and Cleland then that rules out it being an SD card issue - if not then try a different SD card. I would try (if you haven’t already) re-downloading the sound mod img file, erase the SD, then reinstall the fresh download, maybe try downloading it with an Ethernet cable if you’ve been downloading wirelessly.

I would like to download Clelands mod for the pro version, but I am having trouble accessing the link. It keeps giving me a file not found error. Can someone please share the link with me? I must be doing something wrong!

It's been discussed just a few posts ago that the links are no longer valid and that you need to PM cleland to get the code.

This is what I was wondering. If he was going from a previous version to a SD swap to newer code then any node board updates probably would not take place like they would with a spk file update process.

shriver Hey brother, can you verify that your stock code is the same version as the cleland code you downloaded? You just got that thing NIB right? Good chance different versions are causing this issue.

No.
the Cleland mod is the same as if you updated with an spk file

You can be running an older version and update with the Cleland version and it should act exactly like the newest .spk
You are just swapping out an SD card which has the firmware on it

Will that update node board firmware though?

it is the newest updated firm ware burned on an SD card....the same as if you were to update your SD card with the .spk file

Anyone have a problem loosing flipper power? I have had a few games after the new code where its like i tilted but its not a tilt. I loose power to the flipper for a few seconds. I put the old code back in, but not sure if it did it or not. After updating to the cleland code there is no going back to the normal stern code. So I'm not sure what's going on. I checked connections. There are no tec alerts.

Thanks guys! After looking at this further, it appears that I just have a bad node board (9). I booted the game up to look at this again last night, and with the stock card in, it's now node 9 not found on stock, and on cleland. It was NIB last week, and has 12 plays on it. Thanks for your input, looks like this one is just bad hardware.

I had an error like that on a brand new Spike 2 game once.
Pretty sure I just reclicked the connector(s). Definitely didn't need to replace it in my case.

Yes, the node boards are finicky. I’ve gone as far as disconnecting all the connectors to the board and reconnecting them. The problem then usually goes away.

I've seen others have "missing" node boards for these reasons:
-updated game with wrong version (pro vs le)
-coindoor left open during update (interlock switch out)
-coindoor left open during boot up
-loose rj45 (ethernet) connector(s)
-bad boards

OR- it's a longshot, but it's possible you could have a bad ethernet cable too. Before swapping out a node board I'd try using a different ethernet cable (or cables) connected to node board 9

Thanks! It's possible the coin door was open,but it doesn't appear that GOTG has a interlock like the newer games. I will replace the cables and try that (as I am dying to play it with the cleland mod). I have reseated all rj45 connections on all boards. Not sure entirely how they are interlinked, if at all. Definitely used the LE code, I actually just went back and verified, thought maybe I was losing it. Thanks man!

I just picked up an LE this week. I'd previously played a couple of GOTG on location and didn't realize they were already running Cleland's sound files. Wow. What a difference it makes from the factory sound package. (It also didn't hurt that I brought it from 0.81 to 1.06 at the same time). Well done @cleland; this makes this pin shine in a way it wouldn't be able to without your contributions.

cleland - Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! I just installed your SD card MOD and breathed new life into my Guardians machine. I liked the machine before, but I love it now. Thanks so much for taking the time and effort to do this and share with the world. You are an artist!!!

For those running cleland sound (amazing!), what do you all recommend for speech and music attenuation settings? I prefer more music and lower voices but still being able to hear what they are saying. Looking for perfection!

Curious to know as well

Have you tried the cleland reccomendation of sper ach attenuation on -23? That works fine. For me at least.

Great score! Love that light show on the premium/LE models. First I’ve seen a Cleland vid on that model. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks hadn't seen this. So -23 for speech and music even at 0?

This is great for folks new to GOTG who don't know about cleland!

Unfortunately the link is no longer available - can some chime in and reup the pro version?

Thank you guys

He had to stop posting them publicly but you can still get it if you PM cleland directly.

Big thanks to Cleland.

Also a nother question in this round - has someone the "Sound request" for the missions?

And I also want to modify to things for my personal taste:

- Hadron Enforcer Targets (sound)
- "Start" Orb Multiball sequenze

Hope you can help me guys? Or maybe directly @cleland?

Thank you for your help.

I worked a bit on the Guardians of the Galaxy and made my own Sound Mod version based on the Sinestro and cleland sound mod.

This is based on the original songs, but uses a few faster and, in my opinion, more suitable cover versions for the modes.

Furthermore, the Orbmultiball was adjusted so that there is a little more atmosphere.

For me ITS a Bit more pumping Up

If you want to listen, you can watch a few videos and see / hear how the current status is.

Hope you enjoy it.

Le Version is wip

Wow, this mod has me gunning for a GotG pin. Love the song choices.
