I was under the impression the LEs were all sold out. I see pinballsales.com is still selling them on their website.

Gotcha

I've seen recent LE numbers around 400. So at this rate they'll be finished with the LEs around this time next year.

I'd just settle for getting my MMR. This wait is pathetic.

So I was looking through the MMr rom image and stumbled upon a samples directory which contains all the sounds in the game. I was listening to a few of them, and found one referring to a "Moat Monster Multiball". Is this an actual mode in the game? I've never seen it before. If it is, how does one start it?

Here are the sound clips I was referring to.

My guess is no. They didn't rewrite the code for the game. I found the mm_10 game rom in a directory. I'm assuming they're emulating the rom, and replace the sound calls with the wav files I found in the samples directory.

I listened to all of the King of Payne tracks, and I'm pretty sure it's the same guy. If it isn't, they got a pretty good voice actor to mimic him. It may be a relic of a mode that was never implemented.

I know a few on here are friends with Brian Eddy. Maybe they could ask him to shed some light on it.

Given CGC's track record, we'll probably see them in a month or two.

If you're so jaded with Pinside, why are you still here? There are other pinball related forums.

Cry me a river. You act like a two year old throwing tantrums left and right.

Mine is not like that at all. This is on the Medieval Madness remake?

I went with orange titans on the flippers and purple on the slings. I really enjoy the way they play, and have them on all my pins.

If I remember correctly, each insert is actually a collection of three surface mounted LEDs. If one of those happens to go out, the other two increase in intensity to make up for the failed LED.

My callouts sound great.

Both the censored and uncensored callouts are in the MMr firmware. The game rom is simply pointing at the censored callout. If you open the firmware and rename the uncensored sample S044E_C6.wav to S044D_C6.wav, it will enable the callout.

Maybe use a paper clip. Toothpick could break off.

Sounds like you need to purchase the color chip.

I have some on mine, and they look great. They are prone to scratching though. I would recommend using some felt on parts of the playfield that con potentially rub against them. You could also pick up some of these to protect them when you need to lift the playfield. https://www.pinballlife.com/interior-cabinet-protector-blade-set.html

I don't have any experience with the PDI blades, but they would likely work as well. I imagine you could buff out scratches, but it may be a lot of work. Those blade protectors I recommended do a great job at preventing scratches.

The display looks great. The RGB lighting not so much. Maybe it looks better in person.

I fixed the volume on my call outs a few years back, and offered to either release custom firmware or release the tool so others could do it. I was immediately contacted by PPS and told I was not able to do this, as it violated their IP. I then offered the tool to them so they could do it themselves and was told their sound engineer was going to work on it. This was back on July 24th 2016. 3 1/2 years later it's still not fixed.

I'm not sure why this is so difficult.

You can alter the firmware to enable profanity mode. It's just the one call-out though.

You can increase the strength of the catapult coil to address this issue. You shouldn't have to increase it by much. Just go into the CGC settings menu and adjust it there.

Yes, there is one, but for some strange reason CGC/PPS refuses to fix it or allow others to release a fix for it.

The King of Payne edition which comes with brass armor and a real hawk.

I've bought a few sheets of invisiglass from cointaker and they were great.

Sometimes a game just doesn't click with you. I felt the same way about Jurassic Park. People gush over that game, but I didn't care for it at all.

I gave it about 6 months, which I felt was a good amount of time to get to know a machine. Just wasn't for me.

No need to update firmware unless you plan on adding one of the Royal upgrades.

I believe that update was to support the newer beaglebone boards.

Congrats on the game.

I just moved MMr back into my basement, and it's fairly average for a B/W game. Sterns tend to be fairly light, while JJP machines are ridiculously heavy, especially The Hobbit.

You could try telescoping magnet if you have one. The hard part is seeing where the screw ended up. Maybe take your phone and put it in video mode, and try to see where it is.

I'm not a fan of the RGB lighting either. I like the classic look. The RGB lighting just color bombs the playfield and washes everything out.

I'm a big fan of these flipper mods.

System 11 glass trim is what I've used. Still a tight fit, but it works.

That's strange. I used these for my Addams Family backglass. It was tight for sure, but the original trim was never going to fit. As for the trim being small, you can order the top trim for the sides and cut to size.

Are you able to measure the thickness of the backglass? I can compare with mine.

Better speakers may help marginally, but the issue is in software. If you compare the callout sound files with all the other sounds, they are drastically lower in volume. I've modified my own firmware to increase the gain on these callouts and it's much better.

The chip you have installed enables the improved colored dots on the display. The chip in the coin box is likely the one that came with the machine. It's not needed.

It's only a single callout. You can enable it with custom firmware.
