My wife makes the graphics.
She use every trick in the book.
Handdraw, pieces from images , include copy past, altrue it's not really simple "copy past".

as long as you're not going to ruin a real MM playfield to get it done, then I'm all for it.

No MM parts are used in my MC project, nothing.
Castle, troll and bridge mech are handmade.
Read my 5 year old MC tread.

Change the whole right side from the Playfield.
So the right shots are more easy to shoot.

She shifted the inserts a bit, that's all.

Damn. That’s professional.

It looks like a pinball machine now.
Next job, everything underneath the playfield.

Thanks,

It's now like a playfield swap underneath.
It will be ready for sale soon and also leats to the end of my homebrew career. that will be the end off dragging with pinball machines.
Tomorrow I get the final parts to finished the machine, and by next week there will be a video to show.
BTW I like your tales software project.

Quoted from noitbe1:

Not yet, have to make some changes to the bridge assembly and rewire a loop switch (it's on the wrong side on the playfield) and I take a few days off. Friday I make a video.

that is so cool!
i don't understand how your system works. Did you use the boards from an Medieval Madness? and for the switches etc. you changed positions in comparision to the original? if so i would imagine that is really difficult to think through when designing a new playfield.
or did you have to recreate the software?

The quality of your Medieval Castle 2.0 is fantastic! What a cool project!

#31 3 years ago

Can you show a photo of the upper playfield area? I was trying to figure out what all is going on up there

I use a wpc 95 board system with MM software.
Made a complete new playfield layout and mechanics for the trolls, Castle gate and bridge.
All switchen have been relocated, some changed and added some extra. Even four not used.

Behind the 2 door are the trolls, doors get up/open and you can hit the troll, then door closes. 2 merlin targets( third is ad the end off the pop bumper lane).
And a target that gives you troll bombs when flashing red. So there's always something to do.

Medieval Castle has left the building.
This was my third complete 100% playable/working machine.
It's time to play some pinball now on my new Stern Jp.
NO MORE HOMEBREW.
Thanks everyone for your time and effort on this journey.
Goodbye.

You're not doing any homebrew stuff any more? Loved seeing your work

Hope you enjoy flipping and enjoying the game of pinball for now.

#36 3 years ago

What did you do for the playfield art? I am working on a homebrew with some people and it could be very helpful. Is it printed directly on the wood, or an overlay?

#37 3 years ago

Wow, thank you for sharing again! That sounds like a long haul.

Enjoy the JP; it is a killer game too!
