Quoted from jonahk:

It is, sorta. I'm one of the techs there and I've had my arms in this machine a lot since it arrived on Friday.
It's been popping one of the fuses daily (on the line that powers the left upper and lower flipper, trough coil and the auto plunger). We haven't been able to reproduce it while myself or the other tech's are there so it usually involves one of us having to run over and replace it every day. It will work for a good while after that, and I've spent a good amount of time testing it but so far can't isolate the issue. The bummer is the playfield is a hassle to drop back down afterwards otherwise we'd have one of the bar or kitchen staff take care of it (more on that in a second).
Few other things that have come up from the hundreds of plays so far since it went on the floor last Friday:
- The wire powering the pumpkin flasher in front of the upper playfield will block the ball from falling down into the subway from that level. It's straight up in the way, and to get it out of the way requires stretching it a bit too much so we are probably going to run a new wire and reroute it.
- The pins/lugs at the bottom of that same flasher are right above the scoop, and are already getting hit by balls. Already had to reattach the green wire. Likely going to 3d print a protector or see about moving the whole feature up a bit higher to get it out of harms way.
- The left ramp sticks up above the playfield, and the screws at the top of the ramp were installed at an angle so balls were getting stuck up there quite often and it required a violent shake of the machine to get them free. The solution right now was to remove the left screw completely but the ramp still doesn't sit flush and a slow hit on that ramp causes the ball to get stuck.
- Playfield is not easy to drop back in place; the right side latch for the lockdown bar gets in the way and has to be manually held up meaning one hand to drop the playfield which is something I'm not a fan of. Once it's clear, you have to shimmy the entire playfield a bit to get it to set properly. Something is binding at the back that likely needs adjusting. Once the playfield is in place, getting that right side lockdown latch installed requires some dexterity.
All to be expected from a game where the paint is still drying, and it's been getting a lot of praise from the regulars so far. I'm sure Spooky will help us resolve these in short order (but it's a good thing I'm only 12 minutes away from the location and picked up extra fuses today)[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from jonahk:

Thanks, Luke! The 4A was still blowing so we went with a 5A slow burn it was solid all through league play this evening (with lots and lots of multiballs).
This game is a lot of fun, and it's been a big hit so far. What would it take to get y'all to come out for the launch party

Quoted from Hayfarmer:

Copied off Facebook, but look. #7 has Halloween lights all lit up, no more allowee!! Good catch Spooky
[quoted image]

Quoted from Dan1733:

Luke, did you add some blowing leaves in the basic house animation?
Well done, small touches like that will really improve animation and the experience.
If it was always there, well done anyway.

Quoted from Dan1733:

Would love to get another update from SpookyLuke

Quoted from djsolzs:

Hell yeah now that is a clip spooky SpookyLuke

Quoted from Kkoss24:

Laid back with feet up !! Huge update but still just a toddler .Like I’ve said from the beginning …”Let Spooky do they’re thing .”This pin will be unlike anything out there .I’ve yet to play a pin with “suspense” at the helm (except the first code)and this will shake the hobby when complete .Happy Halloween to All let’s pass out some candy and await the night He ……..

Quoted from Ceemunkey:

This is in no way a negative post, I think the updates are absolutely fantastic so far - but if there's one thing I could offer up as a suggestion, it would be to have some indication on screen, or to transition the video clips to show which mode they relate to, and maybe what stage they are at. There's a section in dnapac's video where house mode and B&L mode are running and clips are playing for both modes one after the other. It just seems a little muddled, so would be good to see some additional indication of which vid belonged to which mode/stage. I think that will polish up the video presentation quite nicely.
I really don't know the best way to do that, maybe a quick animation/splash screen before or after the clip, or something overlayed but not too intrusive to the video (eg, "House Complete!!!")...? Hmmm yeah, don't know - but I'm sure the Spooky geniuses can figure something out.
Getting really excited for this game now.

Quoted from Ilushka85:

Ball also getting stuck here several times. Any ideas ?
[quoted image]

Quoted from Ceemunkey:

I mentioned before but these are the sort of changes I'm really liking. I think of all the code updates I've seen (from streams etc), there were 3 things I thought really stood out were:
- Adding the "leaves blowing animation" across the static screen
- Adding the blood splashes when you hit lit red targets
- Adding the knives to show shot count
These little things make a world of difference - they really give display/animations a great sheen of polish.

Quoted from metallik:

Bowen said you guys are not implementing his suggestions.
I know you didn't *intend* to deceive, but the end result is still the same. The aspect of this game I was looking forward to most is now gone. "We will have this talent help with the game." "Okay, maybe not..."
There are currently 30-some spots for sale across HWNCE and UMCE (didn't check standards or BSEs). Not going to fool with that market; I guess I just wait and hope it turns out OK.

Quoted from kciaccio:

Has anybody got their ball stuck behind the drop target on the upper house playfield?
The ball search won't drop the target.
[quoted image]

Quoted from Rdoyle1978:

You designed the ramps too? Geez Luke! Way to jump on things, wow

Quoted from Ilushka85:

I have emailed support for 3 days now and no response. I also have this ramp issue.

Quoted from kciaccio:

I think a lot of people including myself were concerned and after last update we are less concerned...
I looked up the profiles of the pinsiders with Halloween's for sale, and 90% never posted on this thread and most had more sales postings than actual forum posts....Looks like flippers or people not into this game just dumping.

Quoted from jeffro01:

Seems to be a complete stall with no recent updates for a least a week or two just based on what's been posted here. At roughly 12.5 games a week of HW (Spooky said 25 a week total for now), pace is going to remain sluggish.
Jeff

Quoted from John-Floyd:

Great updates so far and Nice to hear the new audio clips! Recently my game has started auto launching a ball after I pull the plunger whenever I start my 2nd ball. This is now starting my to happen every game. Quite Odd.

Quoted from adamross:

Is there a setting for flipper power?

Quoted from fsumassey:

Summary for #72
10/6 - Butter/No-Butter email - I did get the butter.
10/14 - Invoiced and Paid
11/4 - Emailed to ask if I missed anything. They said I was good to go and they would let me know when it was done.
I believe #83 got their machine and it was butter too. Just a headscratcher. Like I said I have no problem waiting just to make sure everything works great

Quoted from fsumassey:

You’re amazing Luke! Thank you so much! <3

Quoted from Jediturtle:

Picked up #120 today, and saw plenty of them sitting by the door ready to ship out. No "delay gate" conspiracy theory happening here.

Quoted from dnaman:

A friend and I are:
137 Aurium CE
142 dnaman CE
and no word yet on balance of payment etc...

Quoted from P1nhead:

That's awesome!! now if we can get SpookyLuke and SpookyCharlie to come to PinBrew (the best damn pinball-centric brewfest ever), I'll pay their beer tab for the weekend Skypilot

Quoted from Capn12:

SpookyLuke any guess as to when the Knife shooter rod will start shipping with the games going out? I'm not worried about not getting it or anything, I was just curious as to when expectations were, in house, for them. Same with the playfield insert, if anything is happening with that (Not as concerned either way on that one).
Thanks!

Quoted from mpdpvdpin:

Waiting to hear back from about 15 people about their impressions on Halloween at Pintastic. Will report back!

Quoted from John_C:

So the lighting strips are all held on with zip ties?

Quoted from fsumassey:

Mine came in today! I got the butter cab and dear god is it beautiful. I got to play a couple games. I noticed it came loaded with 1.03. Now if I start a game it reboots every time. when we were playing it would reboot pretty often when you got it in the sanitarium scoop. I’ll reach out to spooky about the constant reboots. It’s unfortunately unplayable as of right now.

Quoted from SpookyLuke:

That is not good to say the least. Must be a cable that came loose in shipping or a wire getting pinched and is shorting out. I will reach out to our service guy and ask him to take a look asap.

Quoted from KYLEDM5:

Has anyone else been having an excessive amount or rejects from the center ramp, where perfect shots come right back down?

Quoted from DreamTR:

I don't have any info on mine other than an email a month ago and I am #133. Kind of confusing how people behind me are getting theirs and I still don't have mine and am a location. Absolutely frustrating as usual.

Quoted from radfordian3505:

I'm so excited as it's looking very promising that my game will hopefully be on the line shortly but sadly haven't gotten my invoice yet and I'm #159. Emailed Morgan this morning and she said it could be a week or two and I don't understand as it was stated 144 was the last number I heard on the line. I'm dying to pay for this game so I can have it for Christmas

Quoted from delt31:

Mmmmmm butter
[quoted image][quoted image]
Edit - powder used is the same as the one Rob Stone uses on pirates. It’s one of my favorite powders out there and glad to have it back here. Identical to what jjp uses on hobbit Smaug edition.
[quoted image]
Spooky learning from the Rick and morty decal damage - now they include metal stand offs and felt protector Ala jjp. Nice job spooky
[quoted image]
Spooky please stop shipping with the topper on. Pieces fell off during shipping and left with this. Hopefully they can be plugged in again and I’m sure you’ll replace if they don’t but same thing with my Rick and morty.
But that butter - damn does it look good compared to what I saw at helicon which is the standard. It just pops so much! Absolutely gorgeous. I wish I had more room just to display it by itself
[quoted image][quoted image]
[quoted image][quoted image]
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
[quoted image]
Again I never buy butter - always thought it didn’t make a difference even after seeing it in person. I went to play Halloween a few months ago and came away with the normal art looking flat so I opted for butter and this is exactly what I was expecting with the pop. I could have sworn my rick and morty non butter popped just as much though so maybe it’s just a Halloween thing but very happy with the decision

Quoted from SpaceFury:

#108 delivered today. Has anyone else had a problem getting the glass back in? My glass will hit the stop on the left side before the right side about 1/4 inch. The lockdown bar will run into the bottom of the glass and not go all the way down. I am no sure how they got the glass in. I have measured both pieces of wood were the glass stops at the top and both are the same. I have measured down from the stops to the lockdown bar bracket and both are the same. There is no resistance when sliding the glass in. You can definitely tell when sliding the glass in the left side always goes ahead of the right side like the glass is going in cockeyed? I removed the trim piece to get a better picture and check to see if anything was stuck in there. Any ideas?[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from John-Floyd:

Just had an airball near the scoop that took out a key piece of plastic which holds the fencing and pumpkin along the bottom and left side of the sanitarium. Sadly my game is unplayable until I can get a replacement piece. Emailed Spooky so I’m hoping they can ship out a replacement piece next week.
[quoted image]

Quoted from Reality_Studio:

On my machine the ball tends to get stuck in the scoop because it gets hung up on the pumpkin cable that's been routed through that hole, after which only removing the glass will fix it. A bit hard to tell from my pic, but the ball is being cradled between the cable and the metal wall. For now I put some packing tape to hold the pumpkin cable against the metal bracket so that the ball will just roll over it when it falls into the scoop, but that's just a temporary fix. Anyone have ideas on a more permanent fix? The best solution would be to route the pumpkin cable elsewhere and not via the same scoop hole that balls go through regularly, but I didn't see any other nearby hole where I could re-reroute it to [quoted image]

Quoted from brerspidur:

Had a very interesting thing happened just now while I was testing, was in the middle of a hedge multi-ball and hit the center ramp, and thought I heard a thud. I couldn't tell for sure, so I kept playing until I eventually drained everything , and just as I thought there was a ball missing. Long story short, it had jumped out of the side of the center ramp and ended up in the bottom of the cabinet. After further inspection I realized the ball can easily fit through the hole off of the side of the ramp on either side. This probably helps to account for the many rejects I'm having off of the center ramp, if the ball is slightly getting off center and bouncing on the way up , it would be hitting the wood rather than having metal Channel it all the way up. I also noticed that the edges of the wood inside are getting destroyed a little bit too, not sure how that is happening

Any idea on shipping schedules? Where are they? Did the pinotaurs come in for the 50 that were on the line awaiting them? Still hoping for 163 to arrive before Christmas.

Quoted from djsolzs:

Wow that is exciting news - that new DJ guy seems to be an impressive add recently for you. Fun to watch a team being built.

Quoted from iceman44:

Update the game in home? Does that mean I have to find a PC right now for current update. Getting ready to unbox mine

Quoted from Mad_Dog_Coin_Op:

#138 is in the house. Two annoying issues so far. The first is both wires were broken on the pumpkin. The second was a large amount of saw dust in the shipping box. I had to vacuum everything. The saw dust even got between the display and the plexi. Still no knife shooter rod. I have only played a couple games. It is very different from other games in my collection so that is a good thing. Seems like a fun game.

Keep an eye on the books Spooky. We want you to know this out of the park but not at the expense of the company going down!

I can't find the flipper power settings for this game. I have other companies games and know my way around all my games. But am I missing something in the menu?

Quoted from kciaccio:

Anyone get the knife shooter rod yet?

Quoted from Coolpinballdino:

Bit confused seeing some later numbers ship out I'm 141 and haven't heard nothing about mine shipping yet? Is it because my game is coming from a distributor and not directly from spooky.

Quoted from Dan1733:

ugh
Spellcheck?

Quoted from murfe88:

Didn’t work. And while trying to reset the connectors I lost the flashers on the bottom half of my playfield some how. Called spooky they put me on hold for 45 minutes then I hung up.

Quoted from miyagiPins:

Any ideas or rumors as to what will be in this code drop?

Quoted from jeffro01:

That makes absolutely zero sense... Does Spooky plan on changing game layout at this point potentially affecting rubber sizes? Good god I hope not... So... Post the damn sizes so the rest of us can order what we need. This is so stupid.
Jeff

Quoted from radfordian3505:

Ok now that I got over 100+ games on Halloween. I have one very hopeful change they make too code in the future. When you get into house/sanitarium mode it locks you out of everything and the only pumpkin mode selectable is death in the driver seat. This has got too change in the future I pray. And house mode has got too be timed as it can go in forever otherwise/though it does add suspense to the game. I constantly avoid the center ramp bc I don't want too get stuck in house mode lol.But overall I'm beyond ecstatic with this game and I know spooky will fix this easily with code updates. Just my 2 cents.
lol. Oh and spooky PLEASE add more pumpkin modes bc I can personally say if there is more of these this will make this game perfect.

Quoted from jeffro01:

I appreciate the response but no need to defend your time off or your employees time off. I wasn't in any hurry nor had any expectations that my comment would be addressed directly. Thanks!
Jeff

Quoted from radfordian3505:

Awesome. This game is by far my favorite in my collection and I have Godzilla so thats definitely saying something as it's a great game as well but there is something so special about this game. I absolutely can't wait too see what you and bug have been working on for this game and your future releases bc I can honestly say I'm gonna be a day 1 buyer if it's a theme that speaks too me.

Quoted from Ceemunkey:

Wow, now that is amazing - I was thinking that just having 8 scoop modes would be perfect, but to also add 2 more wizard modes and another multiball. Mind blown!
After picking up an ACNC (few posts up), and experiencing how different and refreshing the layout is, how its's a real single ball shooter (not just MB after MB aftre MB), and how stunning the sound/animations/callouts are - I'm thinking Halloween could very well become my #1. Excellent work guys, really impressive stuff.

Quoted from delt31:

The matching powder Shooter face plate is being sent to all owners along with the knife handle shooter rod. Current plate is just the holdover

Quoted from RC_like_the_cola:

I believe Spooky does the powder in house, so it does seem silly that the shooter housing wasn't done, as well. Only thing I could think of is that the housings they use are chromed and they would have to strip that off first. Perhaps they couldn't get raw housings.

Quoted from kciaccio:

I am glad to see your third Michael sticks out a little like mine. I thought maybe mine was out of alignment.

Quoted from brerspidur:

SpookyLuke. Any update on shooter rods for those of us that already have our machines? Over 3 weeks ago they were waiting to be shipped out after recovery from the backlog. Thanks for all you do

Quoted from Mitoska:

Well, we put 40 plays on it after it arrived yesterday, my first impressions, my cabinet is not quite square in the back, you could hear the wood cracking when the leg was Installed trying to smoosh it together, random grey powder or shavings or something inside the cabinet, my backglass and speaker panel are not quite straight either, you have to finagle it to get the glass out, head decals have some slight peeling at corners, which will probably get worse. My GNR sitting right next to it, and my sterns have a nice T molding for a nice finished look with the art slightly recessed , I'd recommend spooky change to this in the future. Also..I don't have a # plaque on my speaker panel, looks like they forgot mine. The shooter housing really should be powder coated to match everything else. The knife shooter handle is a seemingly poor quality unfinished wood. I don't think it will hold up well over time. It should at least be sealed, or changed to a composite material later on. I'm not sure if there is supposed to be rules cards included, if so I don't have those either, and the lack of a manual is lame, I don't see a downloadable manual anywhere either. Now let's talk about playing. Game played well, not sure what I'm doing yet on it, but I can read up on that. My ball got stuck in sanatarium scoop behind drop Target.. had to shut game off to fix. Got some balls stuck on hedge, had to take glass off to fix. I don't care for the house mode just seemingly going on forever..I could not hit the spinners well..and it doesn't time our so your just stuck completing...or draining. I don't see this being a good game for a location, it would not be enjoyable with all the other games on, loud people, lights etc. A quiet home environment seems fitting for it.
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from miyagiPins:

Mine is on the line right now and I’m really hoping Im not impacted by the quality control issues from the past few weeks. This is my family’s first home pin and reading a few recent deliveries has me nervous.

Quoted from RKip455:

OK... so I took off the sling plastics and all I had to do was loosen the to post, see photo and the SS flap laid down flat... it was not bent but post were over tightened causing the flap to buckle. I held the flap down to push the enter "V" section flat while tightening the post back into place.
First pic was before adjustments, then two showing flap repositioned. Pretty simple fix.
Good Luck... RKip

Quoted from adamross:

SpookyLuke Any timeline for the next code update?

Quoted from Cheeks:

My concern here is that even the promised rules updates sound simplistic and shallow. Not necessarily easy per se, but the code doesn't have a lot of nuance.
I picked up a new game today (DP Prem), and while I was at the guy's house, he had me play a game of IMDN Prem. I had never played a Prem before, and I hate Maiden music, but this game was awesome! There is so much going on in parallel, and there are multiple ways to attack the game. Even if you are just an average player, you could choose your path through the game (focus on modes, or the [whatever it's called] multiball, or the Power cards, or whatever). In one game, it drew me in. I could see the game has legs, and could last in a collection because the path wasn't so linear.
Moving over to HWN/UM, the code is so barren by comparison. Adding another mode, or a mini-wizard ultimately doesn't change a whole lot about the experience. It's just such a rudimentary take on a ruleset.
I really like the themes of both HWN and UM, and ordered both games () with the intention of keeping the one that resonated with me more. I don't *hate* them, but I'm definitely not connecting the way I hoped, and I'm not sure the expressed rules direction will fundamentally change my feeling. When I first ordered them, I feared I wouldn't be able to decide which game to get rid of. Now I'm far more concerned whether I'll have any desire to keep either.
On the flip side - I DO *hate* Maiden music, and yet IMDN Prem connected with me in one game 10X more than HWN or UM have since I've owned them.
I REALLY want to be wrong here, and I kinda don't have a choice but to ride things out. Hopefully the game(s) turn around, or they at least level off in value so as to not lose my ass x2. Unfortunately, I'm feeling like a re-imagining of the rule theory is needed.
HWN follows a movie storyline, so this seems potentially harder to do. But UM is wide open. Similar to how GZ has tons of parallel variety (shocker - Elwin) UM has a theme that could support the same. I'm not expecting the impossible here (Spooky code rivaling Elwin), but when the price of the games are the same, I'm at least hoping to be in the same ballpark. Unfortunately I'm not even sure if these games are playing the same sport.

Quoted from McIntyre905:

Sweet I'll pick up one on payday thank you!

Quoted from metallik:

Played a fair bit last night after setting up, some observations
- The current code has meat on the bones. Finishing an 'expert' pumpkin mode netted around 7M... best game of the night was around 42M. The Stalker mode appeared to have good risk/reward and was worth good points.
- I can see how people get 'stuck' in House... it's very easy to start (just 3 center ramps) but tough to get through once started. Part because once the House was open, center ramp shots from the right flipper wanted to reject, and also because it takes a lot of spins up top to take down Michael. Gotta learn the buttpretzel timing. That said, the mode never actually got stuck for me - I was always able to get enough spins and make the shot to finish it off.
- Had an issue where I hit Judith enough times to lock the ball, it did lock the ball, but then immediately released it after I hit the flippers to blow off the receding Michael clip. Bug? Skillshot locks here appeared to work normally
- Need an option to turn flipper power down. They started off almost overpowered, but do get quite hot and weaker after extended play. Could still make the center ramp but was getting ehh. Turning down power a bit might help keep temps in check. Plunger/coil alignment seems good on spot check.
- I think once there's a mini-wizard modes for finishing the three main modes (starting each multiball) and another for starting all the pumpkin modes (equivalent to DTR and TABA), the code will feel much more complete. Biggest problem currently is you can have a good game that just fizzles out... tidying up the ends will help immensely.
- Music and atmosphere are both very well done. Animations are kinda ehh but I don't often look at the screen while playing so less importance to me. Even at this early stage, the atmosphere makes this a rather unique game, and one I think people are going to want to add to their collections once it's complete.
- Waiting on balls to dribble through the plumbing and get lifted to the inlanes is noticeable, but not horrible. Staging will be a welcome addition. Remember if you're in House and drain to Asylum, hit the green targets to heal before draining back down.
- Build quality is good. There's a few things... LCD panel rubs up on the BG lift channel when opening and decal edge on bottom lifted a few MM in one spot, but overall good. Cab art pops even without butter.
- LCD is the same shitty LCD that's in Morty, and will need the same IPS replacement for good blacks. In the meantime, use the menu on the current screen to enable gamma and bump contrast a little.
- Audio is very good in content but needs work in execution. Specifically, too much bass and mic 'thump' in the Pleasance vocal callouts... meanwhile the Asylum music has a drumbeat that has no bass whatsoever. Need to remix this stuff, filter the bass from vocals and clean up levels. This thing has a massive cab speaker, let us use it haha Also, the increase in volume in some callouts (shoot green NOT RED!) could be reduced just a tad.. it gets almost too loud if you turn the game up.
- Game plays long. Outlane entrances are tight and flipper gap small. For tournament, I'd change the upper outlane posts to slims, and maybe switch to lightning flippers. This game is similar to LOTR both in rules and easier-than-average layout.
Definitely worth keeping til the code is done. I will evaluate the whole thing at that time, but it's better than I was expecting at this point.

Quoted from Coindork:

The lineup just got a little more Spooky.
Halloween and Ultraman arrived today.
Up to 6 Spooky pins now. [quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from Lopa:

Might be helpful for spooky to use a 3d printed Go/no go gauge to set the scoop deflector as part of the QC at the end of the line.
I suggest 3d printed so it could be “open sourced” once these games are out in the wild
for a while.

Quoted from adamross:

Very exciting. I do wish all efforts with this game were going towards refining the code as it currently sits rather than new modes but happy for any progress regardless of what form it takes.

Quoted from flashburn:

"Pull the rubber tighter" is what they told me too, but I literally have no idea what that is supposed to mean. Just tug on it? I tried that, it didn't do anything, and I'm not really sure what that would do to help either. It seems like the two posts are just too close together.
Your behavior with the center ramp sounds similar to mine. I can make it probably 85% of the time with the left flipper, but randomly even that one will reject. Even when it does make it though, it's just such a clunky shot, and until they had me do some adjustments (pushing hard down on one piece of metal), the ball was getting stuck after making to the upper area the majority of the time.

Quoted from SpookyLuke:

Funny you say that lol on the agenda for the update following this one is a revisit of the 6 scoop modes. Before the end we definitely plan on going back refining and adding to all the current modes. It's always a balance between getting people new content and then also improving the older existing stuff. Often times it's good to get it all out there and see what people like and don't like then revisit later with a good list of goals for things to become. We also want to make sure to get 1 of the main wizard modes in soon to.

Quoted from djsolzs:

Good work - cant make everyone happy. They are still working on this guys - lets get the new content in and then the game refined. I assume this content will support a wizard mode as mentioned before. Im starting to understand how hard it must be negotiating for new content and getting approval not to mention building machines and supporting customers.
Oh yeah and interacting on pinside

Quoted from delt31:

Agreed but that was really a filler scene with the girls talking. Interesting to see how they pull it off Bc everything in the game right now is very spooky/scary. Not saying it’s a bad thing - just curious how this comes together with the current code.

Quoted from McIntyre905:

Also is this pooched? I didn't even do anything just lifted the playfield up to look at a switch and when I put it back down and played the auto doesn't work anymore
[quoted image]

Quoted from McIntyre905:

Yea Im sending an email over now I tried to call but no luck

Quoted from McIntyre905:

Oh didn't know the hours sorry email is sent!
Damn looks like I nicked the plunger when I was putting the playfield back down. [quoted image]

Quoted from miyagiPins:

You mentioned the metal ramp should sit just under the wood, is that just under the bottom edge (entire wood) or just under top edge of the play field wood?
Sorry for asking for the specifics.

Quoted from GreenMachine19:

Ok I think I finally have it. Can anyone tell me if these tabs are suppose to have spacers underneath. My game does not have them. The screws were tightened all the way down. I was getting trough coil misfires. I loosened those screws and the ball was coming out each time in coil test.

Quoted from GreenMachine19:My wife and I first played Halloween at Pintastic after I had already preordered. Her one negative comment was that knife looks fake, can’t you do something about that? I said yes so here you go. Real knife. Not sharp, I took the edge off so I wouldn’t slice myself open. Had to be done. My wife required it. One added bonus, it doesn’t flex or bounce around like the plastic one.

Quoted from Meadows22:

I just received 215 today. I'm having a few issues with mine of anyone can help out.
1. I hit the ball in the pumpkin scoop and it's still stuck in there. It wouldn't do anything and I can't get the ball out because my fingers are too fat lol.
2. One of the drop target leading to the ramp is down and will not go up with the others. It looks a bit bent in there, not sure if its getting caught on something.
3. This is the weird one lol. For the life of me I cannot get the back glass off. I have the speaker and lcd screen down and when I push the back glass up it hits the Blackbox and there isn't enough clearance to remove it.
Any ideas at all? I know spooky isn't open till Monday but I kinda wanna play the game haha

Quoted from jailbreakjustin:

I think I may have receive a lemon. I've been working with support but at this point, I'm just flat out exhausted. I'm a brewery owner with this installed in my taproom so I'm unable to troubleshoot to the level that support would like. Below is a list of my many issues thus far.
1.My right bottom flipper continues to get screwed along with the lower right sling and a few other items. The same fuse on the board continues to blow. Service seemed to think it ok to fuse up from 3A SB to 5A SB but it continues to blow. Replaced the fuse over a dozen times. Support thought a coil might be stuck but I cant see how changing the fuse would "unstick" a coil.
2. The game randomly reboots itself when idle
3. The topper knife came with no set screw
4. there is no back rail slide down for the coin box (where the back metal lid slides down over the metal u clamp) so no way to maintain it's position. It constantly moves which ends up causing coin jams
5. I'm having the same pumpkin issue in multiball mode as others have mentioned.
6. In non multiball mode, the ball gets stuck in the pumpkin. Support told me to try and manually adjust the drop out ramp underneath but the problem persists on random occasions
7. My machine now smells like burning plastic and the bottom right flipper is completely dead though the fuse is not blown. The machine is now officially useless after only two weeks.

Quoted from Frax:

There was literally a picture posted on here a few days ago of this happening. Not in the sense like "ermagerd half my playfield is gone anywhere there's a post" like some JJPs and Sterns, but....a piece of art chipped off at a ball impact point. Post # 3018 and #3021 on this thread. Small, and an isolated example, but it is what it is.
Did anyone ever answer what the caster wheels on the playfield are for? Saw that pic and just kinda scratching my head as well.
