we have waited so long

the view bucks for the shipping should be free

at the end of the week we will see if they told the truth (this time)

i will wait with a order.

barry told me that all parts are already in the NL office now

and don't forget to post some nice videos of the color screen

the last BOP 2.0 video is from de 2013

any new video from the expo?

will the PC run on Windows or Linux?

Hi Scott!

Should we run a backup with Acronis or something for the case of a hdd crash?

Hi Scott!

Will you start shipping in europe this week?

i know

You = the company

barry emailed before expo, when they are back at the 20th the start

they said
we wills hip it at the week before expo, when we have packed TBL for Expo

then
we will ship it at the week when we are back from expo, it will be the first we will do

so lets see what happens now

a visitor of the expo told me the colordmd should not look very well

the resolution is very low and should look very unsharp !?!?

a13.jpg

more Infos tomorrow

a16.jpg

yes but at the moment i have a problem

sometimes the ball will stay in lock 1 and no ball search!?!

try to figure out the problem with DP

hardware is running fine, but have to wait for info why this happens.

no it will be detected in the testmenue always right

yes!
looks like a bug in the sw somewhere

hope to get feedback tomorrow

i use anti Ghost leds
____________________
at
Bop 1.0 die brightness is normal
at
Bop 2.0 the inserts are to dark ??
____________________
in both games the coil "outhole" will not work in the testmode
but in gameplay in both.
____________________

ball search only search 2-3 holes in BOP 2.0
not inc. Lock and skilllock ?!!?
in BOP 1.0 there are all coils (may be not the bumpers)
____________________

hope we can figure the problem out.

its definitely not a machine problem
everything was working 100% before we swapped the boards

i l get a update today to fix the led insert brightness.

they are working on it

let you know

of course!

we are working together to fix it ASAP

Installation and Hardware is running without Problems.
Sound is awsome !!

ist more complete then other 8K brand new machines

yes!

i installed the update now

will provide a video later

looks great now

I used at my original HW the patched Rom
but also many no Ghosting leds

i dont notice any diferrence or ghosting to BOP 2.0

all leds are perfect!

yes!
but i am very busy this days.
at the Weekend i have to Mount all cables,...

then i hope i have much time for more Extended games, not just a view testgames

Good news!

The balls search problem, looks like solved.
It was a tricky switch problem at the helmet entry not a sw bug
With the new microswitch i could not reproduced in 4-5 mutliball simulations
looks like the wpc95 microswitches 5 x ok the 6th time or so no contact

so thats great

BOP 2.0 could be played now without a problem.

GREAT JOB!!

Gameplay:
Sound is amazing also very good in BOP 1.0
Animations looks best in small dots
its now more a space mission pinball and i looks like not to build a woman
may be in other missions theres a transmission or so ?!!?
I don't know if there is something like the methamophises in 2,0 ?!?!
but had no time now to test all missions.

Now i have the full restaurated Bride with new decals new clearcoted plastic
next to a Stern TWD Pro

5 K for which game?

definitly BOP 2.0

BOP 2.0 VS a Stern LE ? may be also 2.0 better sound better display, more at the playfield

tom

yes, i will check it, but i am now not at the machine

i tried some games and have not noticed it ?!

i think it will work.

the lights are extremely dark, not realy noticeable
must be a pinmame problem, will forward it.

the gameplay is great!

i hope that this will be Extended during the next months (more missions, Tournament, more testoptions,..)
there is a lot of potential.

the game itself plays nice, and no pc crashes or hang up.

metamorphosis will be included in the future

wizard mode?

you get modes by the wheel 3-4 different at the moment

at this time there is no coin menu or match

i don't think it is possible to play with coins

also what would happen when you have credit and change to pinmame ? BOP 1.0

@kosmo

already installed?

*I noticed from the other video that when the ball goes into the pinbot area it lights up a letter in the word "pinbot". What happens when you spell the full word?

you get points!

with the next update you will start video mode

*What must be done to make the ball skip the face area and go into the pinbot area?
if lock is not lite, the ball goes to the pinto area
with heartbeat ramp you will lite lock

have to figure out the rest

yes the code is uncomplete!

but
-what you get is better then the original game
-ist cooler then a new Stern pro

updates will follow soon, or nobody will ever order this or TBL

the same here

alle inserts are led
but the helmet is still with lamps looks better

i bought the shuttle in europe at amazon for 4$ !! + leds 2-3$ att he electronic store in my town

yes you can regulate the bass at the amp.

na ja im Kernölland muss gespart werden

sorry

right is of course 6 mods (small wheel)
and a multiball

i are this is realy cool

but you are absolutely right it is unfinished

and if this was already so at expo 2013

let see what happens the next week

i and many friends are interested in TBL but we are all waiting what happens now with BOP 2.0

not yet!

i like to see the Pinbot video mode also

any idea how this starts "if you have spelled pinbot"

but where you must then lock the ball

i can`t wait for the update

nice condor, ha ha!

shakes the balls
