No. 315 arrived .

Top of box was crushed with some damage to the linkage hardware on the topper and the topper slightly bent.

Box and topper protection needs improvement.

Played great reliably for 10 hours with one game reset , possibly due to line voltage . Game was plugged in with many other things.

TECH HELP NEEDED: The speaker and topper lighting are not working at all ; except the left speaker light came on mysteriously half way through the day and stayed lit green . They are not working again this morning. The tabs on the "light board" broke off when i reseated the connectors. Too fragile.

Email into to spooky about the issues.

Game plays great and i am not understanding negative reviews on gameplay . Everyone that i had over loved it .

Constructive criticism : (possibly redundant )

Pumpkin flashes like most scoops that kick out and directs your eyes away from the flippers .
Pumpkin is not lit when pumpkin is active for a mode or award.
Delay between left side scoops and ball return becomes annoying when shooting locks you have already obtained at the hedge.
Maybe add instructions like "get to the upper playfield" when the spinners are lit.
Personally i would like an option for a small shaker kick with each slingshot or a knife slashing sound
Less playfield lighting when choosing the skill shot - people had trouble seeing the light moving , especially on the drops
Mode introductions could use a little more fanfare , so to speak. Maybe fade in and out of a Michael face or quick knife slash "wipes" in and out of the sequence accompanied by a shaker punch and a jump scare style one-note shock sound.

Callouts are amazing and dark . Great work there. Lighting is also very cool

Look forward to hooking up my Woojer to this and seeing what it adds to the experience. Woojer works great with Jurassic park and Alien

Thanks Spooky team . Appreciate all of the hard work and maintaining interactivity with the community.

Quoted from kciaccio:

Quoted from P1nhead:

Is that you tucked away, hiding in that sea of green?

Updating the code , even though it's the same version , fixed the Speakers and Topper not lighting.

Quoted from radfordian3505:

I want to see someone with a 1.06 on their audits screen and I will believe otherwise as I have done every update with no problems

i updated and see the same thing 1.05 in menu system

#3907 2 years ago
Quoted from dnaman:

It appears that the code says 1.05 but is 1.06 unless I just haven't seen or reached these modes before. The Sanitarium mode shows the patients walking around in the yard and I see the pumpkin mode as an option but is 'Not Ready'. Is this not 1.06?
Edit:

Okay this makes sense as the first time that I downloaded it right after the initial post, it was ~400MB but when I redownloaded it a short while ago it was over 500MB. So I have just played (as summarized above) v1.06 but it still says v1.05 in my settings.

can confirm the same thing .. still says 1.05 , but is 500mb and has the new modes

Quoted from John_C:

Actually, I have been working with Spooky support for the last few weeks while I tried everything I could think of to identify the source of the problem. I've replaced the servo extension leads, braided the servo flat wire leads, replaced the 12v/5v power supply (at my own expense), etc. All along, Spooky has tried to offer guidance but they've been unable to determine the cause of the problem.
It wasn't until I changed out the servos that the problem seemed to go away.
MK6PIN - You suggested this issue might be some sort of inductance loop. Can you shed some more light on this?

I have the first Michael (closest to the player) permanently exposed ; seemingly after the latest code update . Not sure how to fix; although i may have missed previous posts .describing this.
