Quoted from PeterG:

I do not have insider connect on GotG so only real plus here is a DJ mixer, that coudl be nice with the cleland sound mod

Cleland would need to rebuild his mods on top of the new 1.10 gamecode. (Pinball browser will also need to support 1.10 first)

#6552 1 year ago

Yea most everyone of the 18 machines they sent the update for is mostly insider connect. They could have added some some things to some of them that would have really help the games but nope.

So… I asked Stern on Facebook Messenger about toppers and got the following response:

Stay tuned! If there is another run of toppers, well post about it.

I got the same message

#6555 1 year ago

Hard to believe! Pretty sure they wont make any… So im willing to pay 1200 bux for it!

#6556 1 year ago

I have faith they will make another run of toppers. Stern, make it so!

#6557 1 year ago

My distro says they have toppers on order. Pretty sure there will be one more run of them for the final run of the game.

#6558 1 year ago

Flip n Out has preorders for Iron Maiden Aces High topper. Never thought they would re-run those, so I could easily see a final run for GotG toppers. Hope they do.

someone on here claimed their distro was making more but not sure to be honest! A lot of us here are wanting toppers! I would reach out to stern through Facebook, twitter, and email to let them know we want them to make more!

Nice, ill send stern mail to..

Hi - my Groot motor is half dead, mouth barely opens. Looking at replacement motors on Pinball Life, and there's the Groot Motor, and then Groot Motor Assembly. What is the difference between the two? Anyone have a better source for a motor as well? Thanks.

Did he tell you wich distro?

#6567 1 year ago

LOL. if one distro is going to get some then they all are. Doesnt really matter which one I buy through.

#6568 1 year ago

We are still going back to Epcot one more time so I might end up with some other stuff but so far my 2 girls got these 2 plush’s and I got the Star Lord helmet. There is a neon sign that I did not buy as I don’t really have room for stuff that doesn’t hang on the wall or sit on the backbox of a game.

I'm sort of in same boat, but my Groot mouth motor doesn't work at all. So Pinball Life prices for motor don't seem too bad, I've seen higher prices or having to buy the entire mouth/jaw with motor for over $150. But the difference between what they have listed on their site isn't obvious, as they reference same Stern reference numbers. If going by what is pictured, both are same motor, but one comes with the resistors/capacitors soldered on (so matches factory motor) and other one does not.

Quoted from Munsters:

Who can help me to find the topper?

I'm making my own.
I have a 3D printer and should be able to make a very accurate version of the original thanks to this guy: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5331655
should cost about $30 in filament, some 5V LEDs and a bit of tinkering time.

I'd love to buy one of these off of you if you ever plan to start making them.

I’m in Western Australia, so not really local shipping . I’ll post some pics up here when it’s done.
But if you know someone with a 3D printer you could buy some filament and it doesn’t look like a too difficult project.
Happy to post some step by step stuff as I go.

I made that recently, see above. Let me know if you have questions. The LED soldering is the hardest part. I still need to design and print some sort of attachment system

Thanks - so I get the $70 one, I'll just have to solder myself? That's the only difference?

I can't confirm, and only going by their example pics, but one shows with having the capacitors soldered (more expensive one) other without, so you'd have to find/buy the correct capacitors or remove from existing motor and solder same way to new motor

That turned out awesome!
What LEDs did you use? I was thinking strip LEDs?

That’s just awesome! I also saw there was a “don’t push this button” groot on there. I would love it if someone could modify the little groot to make the left flasher next to the groot plastic the button that he’s about to press, or a covering for that flasher or something.

Quoted from Reefwalker:

Yeah just a cheap led strip kit from Amazon. You can cut to size but then you have to solder four wires between each cut strip. I first thought I'd lay the wires and then be able to solder it afterwards, that wasn't happening so I had to solder before securing to the letters

I had found same motor elsewhere, also cheaper at $45, but this company wants $175.00 USD in shipping fee to ship to me in Canada.

Tim

As long as the motor part number is the same, just move the wires and capacitors from the old motor to the new one. I helped a friend replace the motor on a PoTC spinning disk, which had a motor, a connector and a capacitor. The 'official' replacement for the spinning disk assembly was $150, but as it turns out the motor itself is the same as most shaker motors, so I found the same raw motor part number for $39 and just moved the wires and capacitor. Job done. Saved $100!

DigiKey has the DCM-1018 motor for $60, and I imagine reasonable shipping to canada...

Thanks, as it ships from Multi Products, the shipping calculator even through Digikey, says $170 standard shipping or $250 express. Seems like a rip off

I wonder if you got some pinhead in the USA who lives near the border and drives in to canada regularly to buy it from Digi, and then bring it over the border into canada and drop it in the canadian mail? Is that legal? Not sure even possible, but worth considering....

An option for sure. I found a shipping company that does this similarly, called Shippsy that has a warehouse just over border in US and then runs packages over to warehouse here for people to then pick up their package. I just need to stop being lazy and order the motor finally.

Hello GOTG owners. I love this game and played it on location today. However, the machine wasn't registering switch hits towards mode progress in yaka or antiquities and didn't give a multiball in quills. Everything else was working well. Does it just need a code update? I would like to reach out to the operator with a suggestion so I can play this game working properly.

Old game code issues, all of them. They were implemented in v0.90 almost 4 1/2 (!) years ago; current code is v1.10.

Definitely get with the op about that mega-outdated code. Apart perhaps from end-user audio/video/speech customizations (unlikely here), no excuse for that in my book.

#6589 1 year ago

Stern needs to release more toppers!!

Thank you so much for this info Sonic. The game has come a long way since this first version of the code, way more fun now. I sent the op an email, hopefully something happens soon.

I want used/broken ones for parts

#6595 1 year ago

Hi owners, I’m assuming with the last run coming and Sterns recent code update the updated Cleland code is probably a no go now?
Really good game either way, but wanted to confirm. Thanks!

I think the last Cleland release supports IC but didn't have the home team update. I have it running now. It's great.

#6597 1 year ago

Yes, GOTG 1.09 has been running fine on the latest builds with new node boards. I'm unable to update to 1.10 as of yet though.

#6598 1 year ago

Gentlemen, I need some help. My guardians machine has been sitting and now it just has a black screen and the yellow lights under the screen blinking when I turn it on. It literally won’t do anything. Before, it was resetting after a couple of balls but I didn’t have time because we just had a child. Any ideas? Can I even reinstall a new update if it’s doing this?

Do you have a stock SD card available to install ? Does the playfield light up? Any LED on the CPU board in the back box lit up?

#6600 1 year ago

quick question do you only get up to three haydon enforcers per game, or can u get more?
Thanks
