Joined the club today. I think this one will do it. Needs a lot of work, but got it for IJ dirt cheap, which is still expensive

Either way, finally have it and pretty stoked

#4238 4 years ago

To confirm, the stock legs are chrome right? I see that in the original flyer. Mine has black and want to get whatever is stock

#4246 4 years ago
Quoted from Soulrider911:

wolfemaaan I guess it depends who you talk to I have a rare 100% original (goodie bag still stapled inside) and mine came with brass, they have patina’d a bit with age but definitely mine didn’t come with chrome.

Can you post a pic? I’m guessing they’re not for sale right

#4254 4 years ago

So pretty sure the answer is no, but is anybody selling the original Yellow Ball Lock & Gate anywhere? I did see some 3D printed ones here, but curious if these are being sold anywhere.

Same thing with the Ruins. Seems like you can order from Marcos, but they are back ordered

#4260 4 years ago

Put in an order. Anybody know where to get The Ruins plastic and The Gun?

#4262 4 years ago

Also, there appears to be a Path Of Adventure Ruins mod. Do you guys know where that mod is available? I’m watching it on a stream right now and looks awesome

#4265 4 years ago

Is the original rubber set on this machine white or black? It appears to be white but black seems to pop better on this pin. Also what is the original flipper color? Mine had yellow with red rubber and actually looked pretty good

Curious on good colors people are using

#4266 4 years ago

It’s interesting, the original flyer shows both colors

#4269 4 years ago
Quoted from Ricochet:

When I put mine back together I'm sticking with black. I've gone up, down and around on this decision... I can't seem to find a color that I like, black just works with all of the outlining of the artwork. I generally don't prefer to create a mix bag of ring colors for different parts of the playfield either.

That’s what I thought. I looked at the stock white and something doesn’t look right about it. Yeah definitely post some pics of the black when you get a chance. I ordered both kits regardless but pretty sure I’m going with the black

#4270 4 years ago

Looking for the apron decals. Anybody know a place with them in stock?

Seems like everyone is out of stock

#4273 4 years ago
Quoted from Ricochet:

The only color I added was with the posts... I may end up reverting that to black too. For all posts that are normally black, I'm going with green with the exception of red on each side of the center target that sits behind the drop targets. I made the kit on Titan's pinball kits database.

Post some pics when you get er dun

#4276 4 years ago

What’s wrong with your PF?

#4288 4 years ago

Man this pin is a beast. So many lamps

Can’t wait to get it rockin. Watching all 3 IJ films while I polish inserts and parts

Quoted from Davi:

Your idol lock set is ready [quoted image][quoted image]

Woooohooo! Perfect. My playfield is stripped and ready for it! Thanks Davi!

#4291 4 years ago

So ive never been one to change the stock flipper colors but this machine seems to be asking for it. Ive seen anywhere from green, black, and red bats to green, yellow, red rubbers. What combos are you guys using? Im leaning towards black bats with yellow rubbers or red bats with black rubbers.

Both look pretty good. This video has the red/black combo - looks pretty good

#4293 4 years ago
Quoted from Crispin:

Here's what mine look like; a little uneven as well.

[quoted image]

Damn! See those look good, that’s the combo right there

You got that huh, which is also the reason there’s only 1 IJ pin that was ever released

#4309 4 years ago
Quoted from RDReynolds:

Alas, it’s time for me to sell my IJ. This one plays better than any I’ve ever tried. HUO for the last 20 years. I’ll miss it for sure.
https://pinside.com/pinball/market/classifieds/ad/79110

Ah man, who is going to be the new IJ club owner then? You’ll be back

#4312 4 years ago
Quoted from RDReynolds:

It's a great game, and mine plays way better than most I've played. It's so funny, for years I didn't like this game at all...because I never played one that was working PROPERLY! Once I did, I was totally hooked!

Yeah, this is the most neglected pin I’ve ever seen. There’s one down the street which you can’t even make it up the ramp. I’m pretty sure mine will be the first I’ll play which is working. Same with my GNR, didn’t like it so much as all the ones I played didn’t work. One I got mine 100%, best Pin I’ve ever played

#4315 4 years ago
Quoted from Psw757:

What kind of anti glare hd glass are you all using?

All of them are decent. I hear Invisiglass is good, but I use PDI. My opinion is that it’s just a tad bit clearer like the glass wasn’t even there

#4317 4 years ago

If you’re in So Cal and need a good plating guy who does small runs for a good price, this is your man. Got my IJ & TOTAN done in the same batch. These are brass and he does gold as well.

Quoted from NYG:

I saw over the weekend a clear single drop target on an IJ in front of the captive ball. It looked great. Is that available someplace to purchase?
[quoted image]

Anybody able to track Indypinhead down for these drop targets? I hit him up and didn’t hear anything

#4339 4 years ago

Anybody know where to get the IJ Speaker Grills?

Heads up if you are planning on buying the Marcos planes, the green one is total garbage. The white plane isn’t bad but your better off buying the modded ones. Fan of Marcos generally but this looks like a kindergartener painted it while playing with a kitten.

I put the originals for comparison

#4348 4 years ago
Quoted from pingod:

That looks like shit.
Send it back, or have it custom painted.[quoted image]

Damn - is that the custom Marcos painted? Looks awesome!. The original actually has grooves in the body and cockpit is defined, the mold of Marcos really took shortcuts so curious if that's a Marcos painted.

Ive seen another thread where people have been buying 1/48 scale ww2 model planes and throwing those in. Curious if anybody has had any luck with that

#4352 4 years ago

Yeah I’m trying to convince myself that I have the skills to paint this and that I have the patience.

There’s a very good possibility I could actually make it look worse and lose time I won’t get back

#4356 4 years ago
Quoted from pingod:

They are originals.
Custom painted by SPINNY-VINNY on here.
Look close and you can see Sean Connery in the cockpit with a machine gun.

Ok, now you’re just rubbin it in. Hey look, can you see Harrison Ford in my plane? That tan looking thing is the top of his middle finger to your Spinny Vinny fancy planes

Why Marcos gotta do me wrong like this?

BTW, is Sallah stoned on everyone else’s machine, or did somebody get creative with this playfield?

Quoted from Extraballz:

Haha. It’s not set in stone yet but he said he’s had them a long time. His kids are grown. Hopefully he is ready to sell.

It’s under $2K until he looks on Pinside or EBay, then add $8K. Otherwise be careful, sounds like a scam (unless you know the dude). Bottom line, no HUO IJ is selling for less than $6K so do your homework & legwork before paying penny

Quoted from Gogojohnnyquack:

There's no way that he is not going to be curious of the value and look it up, either before you go to buy it or after he has sold it. You know what the right thing to do is. Make the guy's day and be honest and fair.

Be honest and fair and bring him a six-pack of beer with the $2K

#4407 4 years ago
Quoted from Soulrider911:

Just got my cpr backglass wow! The mirroring is really awesome, adds some
nice depth. The color saturation is definitely different. It’s a cooler tone and slightly desaturated compared to the original. There is also some subtle differences in the font. But over all I really like it![quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Can you show what it looks like installed with lights on & lights off? Curious to see how it compares to the original lighting

#4419 4 years ago

Is there a lamp on the very right upper playfield inlane?

It appears a red lane cover goes there but I don’t seem to have a lamp socket

#4439 4 years ago
Quoted from Davi:

Mr. Ebay, I guess.[quoted image]

That’s them. They are dirt cheap and 1/48 scale, but they come from China so order a couple as one has Chinese quality and was missing part of the mold. I have a third grey one that looks great, I’m going mess with the lighting to see how that will work, but for $10.77 including shipping for 3, kinda have nothing to lose. 1000% better that the Marcos sponge

#4446 4 years ago

I think they all look great, but would like to see what Liors new mini playfield/POA mod looks like on its own without the Ruins mod on around it

#4448 4 years ago
Quoted from liorillusion:

you can see it here or send me a pm i will send you more photos. https://www.flickr.com/photos/156867125@N07/albums/72157709005827593

thats ok. anyone have his own opinion. i also dont like few movies thats others really like. thats pinball

Thanks! Yeah that looks great on it’s own. I wasn’t sure I was a full Ruins guy, even though they look great. But the POA on its own, got that on my list right after A. Finish putting the machine back together, B. ColorDMD, C. Pinsound. So D? on my list?

Anyway, great mod Lior! Thanks for keeping our machines ever evolving!

#4462 4 years ago
Quoted from Davi:

Guys, price check:
What is the reasonable price of a set if IJ wire ramps? Very nice repro, brass plated, perfect copy.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

A guy out here did all my IJ + TOTAN for $250 for just the plating. So I think anywhere around $200 USD is reasonable for the plating. The problem you’ll find is low piece runs, most places don’t want to setup for that.

With that said, the price of all the wireforms plated, well. I’ve seen single pieces for a couple hundred so a complete set you could get quite a bit.

Feel free to sell them all to me tho for $25

#4468 4 years ago

Can somebody take a closeup pic of the diverted shaft clip & washer? That didn’t seem to be on mine and want to see what it looks like correct. Thx!

#4474 4 years ago

Ok, so now that ive got some games in, my left flipper is a little weak and seems to be hot. The coils and flipper assembly for both left and right are new from Marcos (Pincoils). It was working when I first played it (maybe when it was cool) - I could hit the path of adventure ramp. Now its too weak to make it up. Any ideas where to look? Everything else checks out, but not sure what makes coils hot. The right one seems to not be as hot and is working fine

Also noticed a couple times the game resets. Happened when I hit the mode shot and another time on a slingshot. Not sure if this is overall a sign of a bad power board or combo of flipper optos and power.

#4475 4 years ago

Ok, appears the power resets are flipper related. I notice if I start whacking them esp at the same time it resets. Didn’t realized the flipper optos handled power as well and noticed when I swapped them I had improved left performance now so going to order 2x new ones.

Looks like I also have the Subway lock issue I’ve read about. I notice when I locks I tip the machine the ball gets freed up when the ball check rolls. So appears something is blocking the roll (a divot?) Gonna take it off and inspect it

#4476 4 years ago

Hmm, maybe this divot is the issue? How in the Hell would that possibly get there?

Not sure if I knock it out or fill it. I also see somebody 3D printed a ramp wedge that fits inside which may solve this issue permanently

IMG_8513 (resized).JPGIMG_8513 (resized).JPGSubway Ramp Divot (resized).JPGSubway Ramp Divot (resized).JPG
#4482 4 years ago
Quoted from gunstarhero:

It’s so far out of the roll path of the ball I seriously doubt it’s having any effect.
I’d make sure that the mechanism there is moving freely.

Yeah, once I put a ball in it that divot has no effect. The main issue appears to be the rod. After many plunges hitting balls it flattened the end a little creating a little edge at the tip which was throwing the ball back up the tray. I’m sure leaning the machine more would probably help as well but I grinded the rod smooth removing that edge and viola, works fine now. I got locked up once since I fixed it after 40 games so good enough. Seems like the more I play it hasn’t returned

Regarding the power resets, just unplugged/ re plugged all the back box connectors and haven’t had any issues since. Still going to replace the flipper optos tho as they seem to spring on the hold. Hopefully that’s it then I’m gonna play the shit outta it just in time for the 4th

America, Fuck Yeah!

#4484 4 years ago

ROM Questions: It appears the latest CPU ROM is L7 which should be located in U6. The latest sound ROM appears to be L3 which is located in U2. I did notice a boat load of other Sound ROM slots (U2-U7) which all currently have L2 ROMs. So the questions is, if I upgrade the sound ROM to L3, do I just need to upgrade the U2 chip or all 6 Sound ROMs to L3? IPDB.org only has the U2 listed

#4489 4 years ago

Can somebody confirm this EOS diagram is correct(or incorrect) for IJPBA? Mine is just the opposite and the EOS switches are flipped so when you activate the flipper, the EOS is closed.

Flipper_EOS (resized).JPGFlipper_EOS (resized).JPG
#4492 4 years ago
Quoted from pinballinreno:

WPC fliptronic games the EOS should be normally open.
Its probably installed wrong on both sides, or backwards.
Did someone downgrade the game to non-fliptronics?
It happens.

Actualy the fuses were wrong and I think the optos are bad. Fliptronic 2 looks legit, but won't know for sure until I get the optos changed out. If that doesn't work, im gonna take the board to a local pro and have him bless it

#4493 4 years ago

And with that, too all my fellow IJ'ers. Here is some deep thoughts while you are playing pinball over the 4th to think about if you are contemplating putting brand new decals on your IJPBA

Quoted from DexterH:

That's some BS. The seller knows what he's doing and clearly avoided the damage in his pictures with no regard for people that will travel far to buy the machine. He's probably hoping for someone to just buy it after travelling so far. What a chump. I flagged his ad on Craigslist. Everybody, feel free to flag it.

I think that same dude has this ad here on Pinside. Let the fire begin

https://pinside.com/pinball/market/classifieds/ad/80551

#4507 4 years ago

Ok, question about the Rotor Lock Door/Gate Assembly coil that keeps blowing out F116 Fuse.

The original coil I had in the machine is attached here as “AE-26-1500-01” and it didn’t have a diode nor polarity listing which is 50v primary vs low power.

The manual says it should be “AE-26-1500” (attached pic) and so I picked up the Marcos Pincoil (attached pic) located here https://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/AE-26-1500

I disconnected the 50v Connector from the coil (left twisted for the next coil in line) and haven’t had a blow out, so could it just be a bad coil or the wrong coil? Or something else.

Can you guys confirm which coil you have installed?

#4508 4 years ago

Also, do you guys have a nylon ring to keep the shaft aligned inside this bracket hole? I don’t see it listed in the manual but seems like maybe that can short if not? I’m just guessing

D951CC92-D401-422C-AFE4-13EC27E43E65 (resized).jpegD951CC92-D401-422C-AFE4-13EC27E43E65 (resized).jpeg
#4511 4 years ago
Quoted from pinballinreno:

Are you talking about the coil sleeve? I'm at a loss...
The coil sleeve should be flanged and go thru the bracket hole.
The sleeve that came with the coil is probably the wrong sleeve for this application.

I was just wondering if it had a nylon sleeve like the diverter shaft does. It looks like this https://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/20-8790

Either way, that's least important issue. Can you confirm you have the same Coil number? (AE-26-1500). I assume its the same but just wanted to be sure

Nylon (resized).jpgNylon (resized).jpg
#4513 4 years ago
Quoted from pinballinreno:

Those are called nyliners.
It's not used there.
Looks like the correct coil.

Ok, thanks. Yeah I’m starting to think it’s the knocker. Since I’ve disconnected it on had 1 outage. Seems like this Gate was also causing it but after I disconnected/reconnect the 50v wires, haven’t had an issue correlated with the gate going down. I might have to re-solder all the Purple yellow 50v connectors as I believe one of them might also be causing the short

#4515 4 years ago
Quoted from pinballinreno:

Cover your connections with shrink tube if in doubt.
That's what I do.
You might have a short down stream from the coil.
You have to go through the harness and everything in that circuit.

Yeah I traced it and nothing stands out. I’m going to replace the knocker coil as it looks toasted, might just be shorted. Consistently when I was cracking games it would blow the fuse. I played for 5 hours last night with it disconnected and it stayed on fine

Anybody here had to resolve flopping flipper issues? I started another thread but curious if anybody had this issue and resolved it. As you know, weak & flopping flippers are not gonna get you up any ramps in this game.

Also, what is your experience using a Rottendog Fliptronic replacement board? I’m leaning on my issue is my original board just isn’t cutting it anymore and I’m gonna need a replacement

#4517 4 years ago

BTW, here is my original board in case somebody with a hawk eye can spot any issues

Quoted from Ericpinballfan:

That board looks pretty good to me.
But, isnt it 25 years old?
I have a new one and it works great.

Yup, 25. I’m going to get it checks out by some local pros regardless.

So I’m assuming you mean you got a Rottendog and it works great? Did you get it because you had poor flipping hold and it fixed it?

#4523 4 years ago

Where is the best place to buy a Rottendog flliper board for IJ?

#4525 4 years ago
Quoted from pinballinreno:

I don't think it's your board, it looks fine.

Yeah, I think I need to re-visit the flipper assembly. I noticed there was a lot of play in the left flipper which may be the culprit. If I Road & Track everything to spec then I might just get the Rottendog. It’s only $60 so worth having it regardless. If I don’t figure it out after than, I’m calling in the pros

#4529 4 years ago

Ok, I think my weak flipper issue is resolved. It was a combo of adjusting the EOS and mostly not gauging the flipper bat to the bushing. There was a LOT of play and who knew tightening that to the gauge tool made the world of difference. Gonna have to go back and check all my machines now

#4545 4 years ago
Quoted from BeeGeeMtl:

Here's a slow motion video of 3 balls coming down the chute and ALL 3 draining! So frustrating.
Let me know if anyone catches the issue, because I can't see it other than the fact that (perhaps) the balls are coming down too fast? (or the hinge needs to be tighter so that it falls behind the ball, once it crosses into the playfield) Any advice welcomed!
https://www.dropbox.com/s/2m2nmd55x1srqa8/indiana-jones-pinball-bug.MOV?dl=0

Can you put a straight edge from the right lane guide into the idol ramp to see what is misaligned and take a picture? I’m curious if it’s the lane guide or ramp. Something is off for sure. Also is there anything warped on the playfield path that would cause it to veer into that post?

ROM upgrade questions for those that have burned their own. I currently have CPU L5 and Sound L2 and noticed the chips sets are different. CPU Rom is an ST Micro M27C4001-10FI and Sound Rom TMS 27C040-10 EAP9310325. When you burn the new chips, do you match the existing chips or just go with a single/same model for both CPU & sound?

I’m actually going to the effort to build out a completely separate Jackpot board mod without messing with the original.

Good luck guys. I’ve only thought about swapping out a restored playfield and especially with this game it’s gonna take a bit of time. But will be worth it in the end when that ball rolls flawlessly over the inserts without hopping

Quoted from gliebig:

My POA post isn't dropping when the ball is up there. What should i look for?

Also make sure you can manually sink it. If the bridge ramp isn't installed correctly or you installed the hidden back plastic, the shaft can get lodged and not move. It should move cleanly down and up

IJ is an investment. Don’t worry about how much it costs, this machine is one of the highest valued machines and you will get it all back when it comes time to sell.

Quoted from PinWoofer:

I think you guys would like our Pyle sub driver. It has superior construction (rubber surround, poly coated cone, dual voice coil, lower impedance / higher power rating) and can accommodate the PinWoofer dual-channel sub amp.
Our sub ring (WPC or universal) raises the driver off the deck and allows for free movement of the cone beyond the plane of the basket, unimpeded. We have amps, powered sub and backbox kits or go over the top with the 5-1/4" WPC super kit:
https://pinwoofer.com/shop?olsPage=products%2Fpinwoofer-powered-super-kit
We design and cut our own cabinet and backbox rings. Pictured are the sub kit, WPC backbox adapters and some proto runs on the development router. (Get rid of that 3-1/2" speaker for good!) We have many more designs depending on the target (WPC/WPC95/Sega/DE/Stern/CGC, etc.). You guys should give PinWoofer a try. We have scores of kits in WPC and they really do take your pin to the next level.
If we don't already have it, we will make it! Just ask.
Thanks!

For those that are using Pinsound, which Endprodukt mix is the best

IJ_Remastered_Endprodukt.zip

or

Indiana Jones - Reorchestrated

What say you?

It is. I’ve still yet to get the Wizard Mode. It’s a thick as it gets for 90s pins and tops most new pins out

It’s a difficult pin to get 100% working order but spend the time and get it there if it’s not when it arrives. It makes a world of a difference, especially have the flippers in perfect order cuz these ramps are do or die on this one

Better verify your connectors, sounds like something is not plugged in right. Also, if the Rottendog has a specific dip switch setting for this pin, better verify that too

Hi,
Need some advice.
Single drop target is malfunctioning on start up test IF the drop target is down when I power up the game (tries three fast attempts to raise, then stops and generates an error report)
Works fine in test both up and down.
IF single drop target is up when I power up the game it drops and gets up in the start up test without problem and is working in play without a problem.
Any ideas what can caus this and what to look for / adjust.

Clean the target and/or replace it including the coil. You’ll most like need to remove it first. I find tho if you exercise it (lift it manually and hit the drop level) over & over several times it will work. But that lasts only a short while.

So I contacted CPR the other day about releasing an Indiana Jones Williams playfield and the response was interesting.

"Sorry, we currently do not have digitized artwork available for this playfield."

So anybody interested in pursuing this?

Quoted from paynemic:

I can usually get to the wizard mode if I time out the modes and just hit the mode start. I think I’ve made it twice the real way. Gotta capitalize on all the extra balls (like path of adventure, etc)

That was my gonna be my next question. How many people got the Wizard mode without draining modes. I might have been able to get there by now if i did but it seems kinda cheating. Also most of the modes are progressive so completing each of those is a challenge in itself. I barely won the tank race the other day and have only done it once.

It’s crazy they went this far in building out this game. Pretty sure very few saw Wizard mode in the 90’s

Seems like the most difficult to get vs any other pin

#4947 4 years ago

I have been to wizard mode twice. Own the game about 4 years. I only once waited to time-out the mode, the last one before wizerd mode. I wanted to get there so badly. I did not make the billion shot I was one shot away....Same on POTC and Spider-man....just one shot.....

Yeah I probably would have done the same. Would have been torture to lose it one mode short

I've just been cleaning (a lot), some of the flipper wiring was bad, the flippers need to be rebuilt, lots of blown bulbs, most of the rubber is dried out, needs a couple drop targets, needs some trim, and the balls keep auto-firing after the first trigger pull, but other than that, it's in good shape![quoted image]

For the Pinsound peeps here, are you using the Endprodukt Remastered or ReOrchestrated? Not sure what this difference is

#5025 4 years ago
Quoted from okgrak:

Use the IJ_Remastered mix directly from Endprodukt. The ReOrchestrated is just a dupe that someone else uploaded. I've been using the Remastered for a year and it's flawless. With some upgraded speakers the results are night and day from the original mix.

It’s strange though, the Re-Orchestrated is much bigger for some reason. I’ll go try the Remastered then. Thx

#5027 4 years ago

Ok, got it. BTW, what do you mean “directly from Endprodukt”? Not through the Pinsound forum?

Got a link?

#5029 4 years ago
Quoted from okgrak:

I simply meant his upload on the pinsound community.

Ah, ok. Thought I might need a secret meeting to get it like a drug deal.

I’m going to add & change some stuff out in the mix. Also going to up the quality in some of the files

#5073 4 years ago
Quoted from Psw757:

So what I’ve noticed on mine with original pinsound is of an extra ball is awarded through the pit on POA there is a extra ball callout.
If the extra ball is awarded through a score threshold which I believe is progressive based on high score I don’t get a extraball callout with animation. There is however a shootagain callout once that ball is put in the shooter lane.
As for jackpot callout, I keep bricking that when needed so I’m not sure.
I’m assuming we are taking about the jackpot associated with right ramp or Super jackpot at center hole?

Here are some thoughts and discoveries with the Enprodukt Remastered Pinsound ZIP

1. If you change/unzip/Re-zip the file, it runs into a character length issues which will eliminate sound files. If you did this it might be why some files are missing. Try unzipping/zipping in a single root folder only 1 folder deep

2. The gunshot on the final/completion of Cairo mode the gun shot does not sound - not sure why. Either gun shot is corrupt or getting over played with the prior sound bite from Marion

3. The folder/sfx names are different than the original. Not sure why this. I also noticed .ogg files vs wav. Seems strange since ogg only has 256kbps vs wav.

3. There’s a very simular zip file on Pinside called “Reorchestrated”. Not sure why this was posted but it’s recompiled with German labeled sounds files that don’t rezip easily without renaming them. I’d just avoid it

Anybody notice any other issues?

#5077 4 years ago
Quoted from CoPinfan:

If the "Re orchestrated" zip file on the Pinsound website is the corrupt one, where is the good file from Endprodukt?

Re-orchestrated is not corrupt, it’s just a copy of the original Endprodukt Remastered but somebody added unknown files to it and some files have German names. Both Re-Orchestrated & Remastered are on the Pinsound download forum. I only discovered the issue with Re-orchestrated because I added an additional wav file to it and rezipped it and it barked about the non-conforming letters. I renamed those files and it worked. Since then I found out the Remastered (not Reorchestrated) is the original Endprodukt so went back to that one.

Both versions though have the missing gun shot at the end of Cairo. I’m going to try and fix that in the Remastered because it’s really unsatisfying to not hear a gun blast when you’re shooting that guy.

#5078 4 years ago
Quoted from okgrak:

When I set mine up, I simply dropped the .zip file onto the flash drive and booted the pinsound+ board. This way it allows the zip to be uncompressed in it's native linux filesystem. I have had no issues with missing or corrupt sounds.

Are you getting the gun blast at the end of the Cairo mode?

#5081 4 years ago
Quoted from Psw757:

Same here, pretty sure I’m getting that sound. I will try it as well.
I have the original version, have had it installed for a while and am running the original sound board as well.

On the original it works fine. It’s the Remastered/Reorchestrated ones that it’s either being played over or corrupt/not working

Does anybody know what specific gun sfx it is? I’m going to dig into now but last time there were several listed and not specific to Cairo

#5082 4 years ago

So listening closer, when you shoot on Cairo he says “oh shit” instead of the gunshot. My guess is the Oh Shit file took over. I’m going to see if I can locate it in the Remastered. It could be 2 files and the gunshot is just not getting played

#5083 4 years ago

Ok, so I reloaded the original and it’s not a gun shot but a punch sound.

I noticed the remasters starts with a laugh sound then followed by oh shit or sometimes nothing.

Hmmm. Does anybody know how the Callouts work with the Pinsound app? It seems they are predetermined by folder name but not 100% sure as the remastered has completely different folder names

Is there another app I’m missing besides the Pinsound Studio Pro? Otherwise I’m gonna have to piece the folder from the original file to the Remastered and put a loud gun shot wav in it

#5084 4 years ago

Ok, so now I’m confused. Is the Cairo final shot supposed to be timed or is there a guaranteed shot by pulling the trigger?

I am noticing on the original Pinsound zip it varies from a thud punch sound to oh shit. That’s definitely not how the original sound board was. It definitely was a shot which was pretty satisfying and why I remembered it after installing the Pinsound and it was gone

So I’m guessing I can replace “oh shit” with a gun sound but not sure if oh shit is used somewhere else or the final Cairo battle is a timed shoot and I’m doing it wrong all of a sudden

#5086 4 years ago

Ok, so unless somebody confirms otherwise, all the Pinsound zips don’t fire the gun at the end of Cairo.

It does the 4193824549-hahahahaha folder voice file, then it does the 3727780889-oh_shi_ voice file, and nothing when you pull the trigger. I’m guessing a voice folder (or sfx) is missing

Curious what callout folder/file name it’s looking for

I’m tempted to install the original soundboard to test unless somebody who has the original can confirm the sound sequence for Cairo

#5087 4 years ago

Here is a video with the shot at 11:30 in you can hear the gunshot with the trigger pull

So it’s pretty clear the original Pinsound conversion (and every other one) has missed this. Curious if this works for anybody

#5092 4 years ago
Quoted from Psw757:

Anyone able to briefly explain the super ball buy in and if it’s worth doing in a home environment?

I’m not sure how it works but adding extra balls really depends on you.

The original intent was to keep quarter paying suckers like me around longer by getting an extra quarter to extended a good game. I’m guessing you aren’t charging yourself in your own home so it basically gives you a 4th ball.

For me, i pride my scores on the standard 3 ball plus earned extra balls in game. Others might follow tournament play and not play extra balls. Really depends on your standards of play

So that’s my thoughts, do as you want. It’s your machine

#5095 4 years ago
Quoted from Psw757:

Those were my thoughts, wasn’t sure if the buyin triggered some sort of scoring multiplier.
Makes no sense at home if it’s Just an extra ball.

From this rule sheet

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/pinball/916481-indiana-jones-the-pinball-adventure/faqs/1396

“ EB Buy-in: Extra Ball buy-in is an optionally settable by the operator.
When activated, you can buy a 'Super Ball' for 1 Credit.
Note: Certain software upgrades on prototype cabinets cannot use
EB buy-in since the software expects to find a dedicated
button for this function. (software in beta's used the
trigger on the gun. L-5 onwards has this fixed).

Super Ball: This is the ball you just paid a whole credit for. Eternal
Life is lit for about 20 secs, Path of Adventure is Lit, and
the next Mode is started. Eternal Life Multiball does not count
as a Mode for this (ie it won't start automatically if you have
all 12 Modes spotted already).”

#5099 4 years ago

So, did any of you Pinsound peeps get the gunshot sound out of the end of Cairo mode?

Still trying to figure this out

#5107 4 years ago
Quoted from gliebig:

Is it normal to get a lot of SDTM's from the drop/captive ball/blue lane?

That’s how it was designed. I believe it’s called the sucker shot

#5111 4 years ago

You guys are talking about the captive ball shot for Quick 2 ball multi & Castle Mode shot right?

#5126 4 years ago
Quoted from Psw757:

So I just did this for you and when the dmd says pull trigger there is a gun shot sound although not as loud as on ball launch and someone says shit....or it sounds that way.
Edit - correction, dmd says shoot mode start but you can pull trigger and definitely hear gun shot. I’ve tested 4 times now.

Can you DM me a link to get the same copy of the Pinsound file you are using?

#5141 4 years ago
Quoted from VALIS666:

I'm running out of ideas trying to trace this short down, so I wonder if anyone here has any Indy-specific advice on where to look. I feel like I've looked everywhere five times already, but who knows what I overlooked or is hiding in plain sight.
My wife demonstrates how easy the short is to trigger and clear, just raising/lowering the playfield half an inch does it:

I've actually been able to clear it by just raising the playfield a barely perceptible fraction of an inch, never mind half an inch. So you'd think the culprit would be in plain sight, but it isn't as far as I could tell. Or it is, but I'm just not seeing it.
Also got this while playing/troubleshooting last night: "Check Switch 45 Center Enter"
That's behind the 3 drop bank to lock balls in the Totem. Any idea here? It still seems to recognize locks and sends balls to the Totem, so I'm not sure what the problem is.
Thanks.

It’s says the Row short is on the left return lane. Have you checked out that switch under the PF?

#5143 4 years ago
Quoted from VALIS666:

It's actually row 6 that's shorted, white/blue wire, which covers 8 or 10 different components (right pop, N rollover, upper right orbit switch, left return, etc.) and I've looked at each one of them a few times. I just had that test screen on in the video since it was an easy way to demonstrate the short triggering on slightly bumping the playfield.

If you can’t trace the white/blue to an obvious short, then your gonna have to trial an error starting with the first connection. Clip everything past that and see if it shorts, then move to then next in line

#5145 4 years ago
Quoted from wolfemaaan:

Here is a video with the shot at 11:30 in you can hear the gunshot with the trigger pull

Still can’t get the gunshot to work at the end of Cairo. Even Endprodukt is looking into it. Seems like Pinsound 1 it works fine, but not Pinsound+

Gun Blast or bust!

#5147 4 years ago

Yeah I’m gonna keep trouble shooting with Pinsound, hopefully we can figure it out. Curious if anything else if not working I’m not aware of

#5150 4 years ago

I’m discussing both issues with Nicholas at Pinsound. Hopefully he can figure it out.

Seems like a Pinsound + vs Pinsound 1 conversion issue.

#5153 4 years ago

It’s definitely not a muffled gunshot, it’s no gunshot at all. I actually stripped out all the sounds on that mode one by one and still couldn’t get it to fire. My guess is it’s just not lining up the sfx with the number assigned in the machine. I don’t think it’s missing because people with Pinsound 1’s get it to fire correctly.

I believe it should be sending the “Gun Sound” sfx which does fire when launching the ball, just noticed in that particular mode it doesn’t. It’s probably the same issue with the Extra ball and jackpot

We’ll see, still looking into

#5156 4 years ago
Quoted from okgrak:

Have you tried downloading the original unedited sound package, and see if the SFX# matches up? Maybe it was incorrectly modified.
One thing I have also noticed from working on other pin sound mixes, is that sometimes a file that isn't recognized properly can be fixed by simply renaming the folder AND the file. I'm not near my machine, but you can check and see if that works.

Yup, they don’t line up. Besides none of the packages including the original on Pinsound + don’t work. I don’t think it’s ever worked. The original Pinsound 1 it works fine

#5166 4 years ago

Ok. Well if the game wasn’t powered on you’d need to order a Marcos Exorcist

But being that it’s powered on sounds like a stuck switch or ground short. You run and tests?

#5168 4 years ago

Well when it comes to repairs, you need to figure out whether you are afraid of breaking more stuff or not.

Regardless of what category you fall into, I would highly recommend locating your local Old school pinball repair guy. ItA good to have this guy available for many reasons such as you do have time, you give up on an issue, you broke more stuff than the original issue, etc. And it’s just good to keep these guys in business for Pinballs sake.

If your afraid to do any repairs (the fear everyone has when they get their first pinball machine), then try and fix small things (bad coils, switches, etc) and eventually you’ll get brave and move on to something more advanced.

If you have no fear, well then it’s an open book on how to solve issues. Make sure you have the schematics and manual, preferably printed. You are going to be narrowing down issues and you’re gonna want to know the path of the issue. Doesn’t hurt to ask here as well.

With that said, your issue might be a single issue hitting multiple items or independent issues. Pick 1 item that is failing and start there

You mentioned the idol lock, what is error is being reported?

#5175 4 years ago

Ok, so Nicholas from Pinsound messaged me and said the Indy issues (IE Cairo Gunfire, etc) are fixed.

New Pinsound + firmware (Jan 14 2020)

https://www.pinsound.org/help/pinsound-plus-help/

Gonna test later today! Woohooo!

#5177 4 years ago

Ok, just tested - its working. Its a little muffled like people reported but you can turn up the gunfire volume in the PinSound Studio App.

Haven't tested the jackpot/extra balls yet but so far so good.

#5179 4 years ago

All Good!

#5184 4 years ago
Quoted from KornFreak28:

Pinsound studio app? Didn't even know it existed. What is it for?

It also lets you set volumes on music/voice/sfx/etc individually and globally. Once you adjust it and save it, you just zip it back up and Pinsound updates the settings.

Handy if you want something to stand out a little better or if something is a little loud vs others Callouts

BTW, the app is FREE FREE FREE

#5186 4 years ago
Quoted from Jimmyhonda:

Can anyone give me some advise on how to update my firmware on my pinsound+? Also, will my custom mixes need to be re-downloaded afterwards? Thank you!!

You need to download the firmware file on the root of a fat or fat32 usb drive (separate than your sound files one)

Once it’s completed it will instruct you to shut down the pin.

Then put your original usb with sound files back in, boot it up and it will update and you’re good to go

#5189 4 years ago

So I just discovered something and I feel like an idiot. For the longest time I thought I had bad switches on the path of adventure. For some reason, I thought you were supposed to hit the switch above the yellow light. Doh!!! I took the glass off and kept testing the switches because I couldn’t figure out hitting the switch above wasn’t turning off the light. I was ready to take off the mini PF and replace them

I made a mistake and just realized it’s the switch BELOW the light. Now I have to say, it’s much harder now to complete the pattern. So I’m curious how TF I even completed it at all. I was reshooting the ramp several times to make up for my thinking it was the switch above. I’ve failed

Quoted from Flipper_McGavin:

Good job on the restoration. I love the brass plating on the habit trails. Do you think the plating will last with the friction of the ball rolling on the habit trails? I want to brass plate my habit trails now but I worry if it is as durable as powder coating.

When I got mine done, they guy also clear coated them. Added an extra layer of protection

#5255 4 years ago

Naw I didn’t, I was yelling too much to focus. Time just freezes and your just trying to hit everything you can. I think I needed both ramps, they were still lit. But what a victory lap when it starts. I played every mode fully, no mode drains. I did have 2x extra balls earned thou, almost made it on the 4th but drained playing the 12th mode. So the 5th ball was due or die. It’s interesting though, if you drain on the 12th mode and you have 1 more ball you get the attached shot. Man if I drained on the 12th without a ball left I would have fell over

#5257 4 years ago

It really puts an almost impossible challenge on this table. Just to get all 12 modes is a fulfilling task. But to get the Wizard bonus in 30 seconds - one in a million. I guess when you get that goal you’re ready to compete at Pinburg?

Either way, the most challenging Wizard mode hands down. The only one simular but not as challenging is GNR. 6 balls in the finale is just insane esp since all 6 never drain

#5259 4 years ago

Some people have definitely got it. They’ve mentioned it here. Not sure when then bug takes over but I’ll tell you once I actually get all the switches. I could clearly see which ones were left

#5261 4 years ago
Quoted from Averell:

Software failure depends on the reached modes and the sequence how they restart.

So you got to Wizard Mode and it didn’t work for you?

#5270 4 years ago
Quoted from Averell:

Often the game doesn't continue and starts to count wrong and this is independent of which mode is currently played.

So only some pins might have this issue, and there doesn’t seem to be any specifics. Probably bad switches?

On the other hand though, many people on the leaders scores got it so its working.

Wonder who specific has run into this issue.

Fremen What version of the code you using? Seems like you were able to get the Eternal Life 1 Billion Bonus

#5275 4 years ago

This post is interesting, but based on older L6 code.

“ It would appear that this feature is one of the buggiest on the game.
Sometimes it will give the animation for the 1B but not the points,
and it will often leave the Path of Adventure playfield confused.”

I am confused as to what you are mentioning here. I have been to wizard mode at least 15-20 times now and have never had any problems.
I have read that there is some bug that if you succeed, it occasionally does not award you the 1 billion points, but again i have never experienced this problem

Yeah that was my thoughts, seemed like the bug exists but rewards the 1BIL majority of the time but a bug existed in L6 where it had issues. Not sure if this exists in L7

What version of code do you have?

I’m looking for suggestions about what to do for divots in the ball trough. Marco wants a bunch for a new trough, but they had an insert as a solution for magnetized balls, so I bought it. Problem is, the ball return from the play field is pretty tight - I measured it at 1 1/8”. The insert is 1/8”, which causes the ball to get stuck. So, what should I do? I have a few ideas, but would like to hear from others who have faced this problem. Thanks

Small fun factoid for those who havent noticed. During Get the Idol mode, if you knock down all 3 drop targets in one shot, the bonus is 20 million for that shot. (5 mil for 1 target and 10 mil for 2 targets). It doesnt happen very often and it has to be a random bounce where the ball just glances all 3.

Yeah it can be easily one of the highest paying modes in the game. I always forget it’s the targets plus end bonus

Quoted from Digduglus:

Just got her in. Getting ready for a resto job. Noticed the backglass flashers work but not the GI backglass[quoted image][quoted image]

Welcome to the IJ Club. It also appears your part of the #FadeGang just like some of us here. Don’t let the decal haters try and play you. Fade Haters Gonna Hate

Now that GI problem, should be basic but you’ll need to open the box of course to be sure. Most likely connectors, mine were soldered directly to the board. Had to redo the headers and then it was fine ever since. People do some whack stuff with these greats machines

#5340 4 years ago

So first off, if you don’t already have one, get the schematics

https://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=1267

Learn it, know it, live it

With that, I believe you are looking for J120 & J121 on the power board

Inspect it and reseat it. That would be first. Possibly fuses after that

#5346 4 years ago
Quoted from Digduglus:

J120 and 121 both fairly crispy, does that mean board work necessary?[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

So your board actually looks ok, you might clean the pins though. Those connectors definitely need to be replaced though. You can probably get it to work by seating/unseating exercise. But it may be diminishing returns.

You’re probably dying to play it though and parts won’t arrive till next week, so you might as well give it a spin. You’ll probably locate other issues as well. Then you can decide what to order.

Before I play a single ball on a pin I buy though, replace the balls. If you don’t have any, at least clean them and the playfield.

Good luck

Quoted from delt31:

Has anyone experienced their IJ automatically add another player mid game? I just noticed I'm playing 1 player and when my ball drains, I see a spot for player 2. I'm not pressing the start and the switch is OK in test. Is there a setting maybe?

When you say mid game, are you talking after ball 2 a player gets added or while you’re playing ball 1?

Quoted from Ricochet:

Quick question for you Indy restoration folks...
Does the metal guide go behind the exit ramp from the idol as I have it shown here. I think it does ... but it has a little bend to it that makes it look kind a funky. I can tweak the guide so if it’s on the outside it is flat against the ramp structure.[quoted image][quoted image]

Definitely inside meaning the ramp to the left of the flap. Mine actually has a space about 1/8 so it’s not even snug against it

The most important thing, roll a ball down it and make sure it goes smoothly through the gate

Quoted from gearhead:

I have a ramp question for you guys. My right ramp, the plastic one, is pretty beat and I plan on getting a new one. Planetary Pinball has two listed on their web store. Same ramp, different part numbers and cost. GS-IJ1 for $123 and PPS-A-16319-PD for $119. I emailed them to ask what the difference was and here's the response: "They are two different suppliers with two different prices – the most recent product is the PPS-A-16319-PD the other GS-IJ1 is made by Starship Fantasy ramps."
So my question is does anyone have any experience with either, or both of these ramps? Which one is better? Cost is really a non-issue because they're nearly the same.

I bought mine from Marcos, is perfect

#5409 4 years ago
Quoted from gearhead:

Thanks, that's good to know. I wonder if that's a third manufacture or the same as one of the ones at PPS?

Not sure, you could probably email Marcos and they would tell you. Otherwise if there’s something identifiable on it, I could look

Quoted from desertT1:

I did the switch matrix test on pinwiki where you unplug the connectors from the MPU and touch point to point with a wire. Both switches acted as they should so that means it’s a short somewhere in the wiring or bad diodes. If it’s a diode, isn’t it the one that triggers the other switches? The switches that are being triggered when they shouldn’t do not register any others when they are pressed.

Did you try doing the single switch test? Maybe disconnect the outlane switches and try testing the letters, then visa versa

#5427 4 years ago

I’m kind of confused then what the issue is. Can you post a video showing it? (Or pics?). I’m playing my IJ RN so maybe we can figure this out

#5429 4 years ago

So when you disconnect that switch, does everything else work?

The mirrored IJ backglass looks great. Saw they had them during Black Friday and was able to get one.
Planning to use a new glitter version of the playfield to accent this and the other shiny trim.

Quoted from 3pinballs:

Curious , has anyone updated their speakers with Flipper Fidelity or any other speakers?
If so, is it noticeable difference to even bother? thx

If you upgrade to Pinsound plus the speakers yes. Otherwise unless you have old busted speakers the difference IMO is marginal

Has anybody ever modified the prototype jackpot lights? I have this and they are very bright and wondering if anybody put a color lens or replaced them in order to lower the brightness/color

Quoted from 2pupPinz:

That’s a great idea! Might be able to use those acrylic gels that they use for photoshoot lighting effects. They’re only a couple of bucks on amazon and can cut with scissors to size

I’m not the only one right? It’s way to bright and not pleasant at the stock brightness. Actually washes out the symbols. I’ll look at it. I’m also curious at getting some colored LEDs and just replacing them. I’ll have to measure the voltage. But maybe the gel you suggested is good enough

#5468 4 years ago

Sounds like Gold is a good investment right now

Quoted from delt31:

so just installed the pinsound motion controller shaker. Where do I get the shaker file to actually use it? Checked the website and says available but can't find to download....

I'm not sure anybody has modified the existing sound files. Guess I would check with Nicholas or somebody from PinSound.

You could always edit your own with the studio app

Well, before they close down shipping from Europe, looks like I just made it

Quoted from Flipper_McGavin:

They're banning FedEx and UPS flights from Europe in addition to the tourism flight ban?

Not yet. When it was first announced that was the impression but it was confirmed Cargo was still on. But when a single package, which the virus can live on for days, comes back positive - it will slow down or be halted.

Mine was already in transition and when I heard the announcement, I thought it might get blocked.

But the rate things are getting shut down, if your going to get something from beyond, you better get it now

#5479 4 years ago
Quoted from delt31:

OK - they mentioned it was already available. I will reach out.
As for modifying myself, can you just open up the current mix and add in shaker? Right now I’m running the gold standard ; )

Yup - in the studio app it has specific settings you can add/edit for the shaker

Does only the glitter playfield have the predrilled holes ?

Yes, glitter is pre-drilled. It just looks so right for IJ. I’ve been just hovering over it to see it glitter

I got the glitter mainly cuz it looks good and is a one of a kind. I figure my original is decent, I can always get it restored if I want the original. After spending some time on this pin, it’s never leaving so getting a new PF was not a question

#5524 4 years ago

Its the Indiana Jones Telenovela that was coming to the playfield via Netflix.

RIP El Barcodearea

Wow, I just looked at mine, guess they all are? I for some reason thought it was screened.
