After playing the production model at VFO I never knew the chest acts as a physical ball lock.
Pretty neat as this was disabled in the prototypes.

Quoted from goren1818:After a year of waiting and starting this thread, my game has finally arrived! I am LOVING it! Thank you to all who made this possible!
Has anyone had this one problem? When my ball gets kicked out of the tortuga hole, it usually hits the wireform that is right above it. Adjusting the coil strength appears to make no difference. Does anyone have a fix?

Is the bracket with the two screws near the pop bumper firmly screwed on?
Mine was loose and ejected funny.

Quoted from Ramjet:Not like this game. I've bought all three JJP games NIB and never had problems like people are seeing on POTC
Luck of the draw, I didn’t have any problems with Potc

Just setup a second game.
Needed the link on right flipper tightened, and a few adjustments in the settings.
15min later playing great.

Spoke too soon..
Three switches aren’t working.
How do you lift the mpf?

I'm reading posts where guys are zip tying the ball lock (treasure chest) due to product arriving with missing parts. The frustration and time spent Jimmy Rigging your brand new machines is disheartening to read. Weekends ear marked for fun...overshadowed by disappointment.
I understand parts shift during shipping, but missing parts on a new game is inexcusable.
My advice to JJP is simple. Fire Helen Keller, and employ competent Quality Control. That person should have only one job. End of rant.
Totally disagree, I’ve had Sterns nib with way more work. X-men was over two months after I opened it to play first game. Iron Maiden was missing parts out of the box too.
But then again GOT was insert balls and ready to play, WozRR same.Honestly it’s kind of luck of the draw.
Want to increase your odds for a problem free games? Wait for a further down the production line game or buy a HUO game.
As well as buy from a local good distributor so someone can come help you in person.
Quoted from Genjuro:Fair point. My counter is; did you pay $9500 for X-men? *grin*
I'm getting ready to lock down on $12.5k for the CE and if I have to deal with broken wires, mechs not working, etc.. I'm going to be really disappointed.
Granted, I am going to go to JJP and pick up the game myself with the hope that my game will be sitting there, legs on where I can play it for a bit and go over every inch of the game before driving back to a distributor free location.
Tbl was 8500 without shipping and had more tweaks needed than all my JJPs and Spookys games combined.
It’s not so much the cost as it is every game could need to tweaked. BM66 SLE have had issues too, their node boards blew too.
Sure I’d love to see games all arrive perfect, but till that happens i will manage my expectations and stand by companies that support their products.
Which both JJP and Stern do.
Setting reply to free game is an adjustment I recommend for home use.
The crack and animation are very rewarding.
Quoted from Psw757:There are two upper switches from what I see in the matrix and using map in game.
The upper switch works fine but the lower one under the pearl ramp I just see a piece of white plastic, no switch.
Can you take a picture of yours?
That doesn’t seem right.

Quoted from DerGoetz:Thousands released vs dozens.
What are you talking about.
I own both IMDNLE and FullTLE. i am an owner of both, are you?
Oh I spent way more tech time on IMLE versus two Potc.
Just my experience
Quoted from Energyspike:The tortuga VUK is very inconsistent as it sometimes it shoots it the right flipper and next time a strong shot to the left flipper. I cranked up the coil setting to 30 with those results and had it down to 8 which gave a better consistent weak shot to the right flipper. Anyone having the same issue. Also, looks like a protector is needed for the Tortuga hole.....

If you bend the metal tab down towards the pf the eject will be a lot smoother.
I have my power set at 22.
I would love to see a Cliffy here.

Quoted from VillaThrills:I just can’t get through my head the behavior. Do the JJP coils work like the old Bally ones? So button is pressed and high power coil kicks in and the flipper goes up. Hits the EOS, and adds in the low power coils. Either low power never engaged (short in the coil connection) or is not enough (poor solder joint). Flipper comes back down, releases EOS, bypasses low power coil and high power kicks it back up trips the EOS and somehow low power magically is enough now. Just don’t understand that.
My money is on the flipper button switch
