Is there a way to reset the high scores on this game? I can reset the casino run, but i dont see a way to reset the HSTD. I think I zero them out on the settings, but i guess it doesnt stick.

Had this for a year and a half. Just now getting it shopped. I'll post some pics when done.

Finished my Jackbot. I made a new mini playfield too.

It keeps the ball from rolling all the way back down the ramp. Once you pass the first skill shot hole, you are guaranteed to get at least the bottom shot.

Quoted from MustangPaul:

Is anyone still in the club or am I the only one? Any way, I took my mini pf off for cleaning, new rubbers and replace one of the red mini posts and found that they are screwed on from the underside AND glued on. Who the hell thought that was a good idea.

Yea I found that out the hard way too. I ended up making a whole new mini PF.

Here is a couple pics of my custom mini playfield. Doesn't have the decal on it, but I like it better that way. You can see the ball better when its popping around.

All I did was take my old mini PF to my local glass shop. Told them I needed a replica of this. I chose lexan due to its strength and doesn't scratch easily. They gut me a new piece and the pinball hole. (every hole cut is $5) So, with that price I cut the mini post holes myself. lol. Whatever pop bumper caps would normally fit under the original mini PF would fit under this custom one. My mirror blades are from pinball side mirrors.

Yea, the random legs by the shooter is off. Whomever makes them could simply remove those if they have the art file.

#194 6 years ago
Quoted from NinJaBooT:

She's kicking one leg back. It totally goes with the art direction of the game. Look at the front the game under the extra ball button. Another "not so" random set of legs.
We ran 25 JB magnets and only have a few left.
Thanks for posting Paul.

Except, that you say that she's kicking ONE leg back. That is both her legs....

Overall looks great and leg ordeal will probably go unnoticed.

Seems like an awful amount of work for something that is unnecessary. You could have sprayed it with some old bulbs still in place to protect the sockets. Or just used a roller and removed the bulbs and the sockets would not have been affected. I mean, I'm trying to figure out the point of this project. Maybe you can explain it better? Good job on the mini playfield! You can get replacement posts from outlets online. I went to Titan to get my clear posts for the mini PF.

Quoted from MustangPaul:

Well after about 2 hours of sanding I have one side of the cabinet sanded down so the mirror blade will actually sit behind the plastic pf glass channel a bit so the mirror won't get scratched when lifting or lowering the pf. Now to sand the other side.

Sucks you had to do all that. Mine went on without an issue. It is tight though, but they fit.

If they don't come with posts I recommend getting clears posts instead. Makes the game look a lot better. Especially with multicolored rubbers from titan.

Color code for Jack*Bot CDMD came out today. Got mine going and it looks great!

Quoted from MustangPaul:

I see you got a LCD, so did I. Got it in the mail yesterday but don't know when I'll have time to install it, Leg Light orders are keeping me REAL busy. Now you need the light up speaker panel, that's next for me.

Nope, I have LED. I like the dot look on the DMDs. So does the wife.

#322 5 years ago
Quoted from MustangPaul:

Well I installed mine and I got the dreaded optos in ball trough not working check connection etc. Went to their web site and looked under trouble shooting and they had a listing for that. All connections are good so I may have not enough 12v power. Anyone know which of the 3 power wires is the + and -? I have a 12v wall wart I can splice into to power it. I just reseated the connectors and now the game will start but no balls will kick out.

This is where mine is connected. J116.

Quoted from MustangPaul:

Thanks for testing it. I downloaded the file but how do I get it on to a memory stick and get it in the dmd? I've never done it before.

Empty flash drive.
Download and copy "chroma.rom" file onto empty drive
insert drive into usb slot of Cdmd
hold down the USB button on the back of the Cdmd for 5 secs or until the LED starts blinking
release USB button when light is blinking
when light stops blinking remove USB drive
you are done - may require a reboot.

#335 5 years ago

It also depends on if you got the newer model of the colorDMD. The new model uses "chroma.rom" while the old version of the ColorDMD uses the "colordmd.rom". The .rom file will not work with the wrong version of colorDMD.

Once I see some pics of it on a game all lit up - that will be the deciding factor for me.
