Got my MMr just last Thursday. Ive notices that the peasant ramp sensor just right behind the castle doesnt always register the ball. From observation tonight it would seem that fast balls are registered, but slower balls do not register. Is that sensor supposed to register every ball?

I have read here that some find the shoutouts are too low in the sound mix. I found them a bit low until I added a subwoofer to my machine. Although, I think the difference was from the capacitor I put in place for the subwoofer. Now the shoutouts have nice separation c\learly coming from the cabinet speakers, more clearly.

As for the peasant rollover switch issue I mentioned above, I tried bending the leaf, works some but not 100%. I will check for loose screws tonight, thanks for the tips!

Ok, so Ive had MMr for 10 days in the house. Havent made any adjustments to make the play easier. Left the out lanes as per factor, same ball save time, angle at as close to 6.5 degrees as possible and man, its kicking my butt. So fast and draining like crazy...

Has anyone else had this experience?

Ummm, dont you want the speaker wires going to "speaker level In"?

How do you initiate multiball madness?? The manual says compete one of the tasks, for example, revolting peasants, and then make the Merlin eject shot. Im assuming that when you complete a task, then it lights up under the eject hole. but, there are times when I light up a number of tasks then put it in the eject hole, but multiball madness does not initiate. Do you have to do something else other than lighting up a task?

wow, looks great!! I may have to do that myself!

Thanks for posting this. Looks good, I will do exactly that. That blank space sure is begging for something. And why they didnt put the LE plaque with your numbered pin in that space is beyond me.

Id like to see how the inserts look after the diffuser is in place. Looks like is a pita to install, but if it looks better then, might as well get it done. To get the diffuse sheet, do you contact them at their Chicago gaming website? Thanks for posting.

has anyone noticed a little static sound when playing it?

That totally rocks!! Congrats on the build, very nice work!!!!

Ive started to have an issue with Merlin's VUK. Merlin's VUK, doesnt work after game is at rest for a few hours or more.

Over the past week or so (have had the pin for 1yr, NIB), when I start playing MMr, when the ball goes into the Merlin hole, it is registered by an audible or Merlin's magic, but the VUK doesnt kick the ball up. Then the pin goes into search mode, then kicks the ball. For all the next times the ball goes into Merlin's hole, it gets kicked out no problem for the rest of the time I play 2,3, 10 games.

This only seems to happen when the machine get turned on or has been left on but has not been played for a number of hours. Sight inspection under play field show no obvious issue.

Any idea why/how this can happen?

Thanks for the tip! Tried it and it didnt work...will try a thicker washer. Anybody else?

no, its not stuck in up position and i believe the washer trick is to push the ball all the way out of the hole when the VUK is still working. My problem is after the game has not been used for a while the first time the ball goes in it is not kicked out. After that it seems to work fine...

I followed LTG's advise for a similiar problem followed the cable to the board and reseated the plug. I did a quick rub of rubbing alcohol on the pins and now its working every time. Thanks for the help....

damn!!!! its happening again.

Yes, did switch test, the switch registers. any other idea's why the VUK doesnt work when dormant for a while, but then after ball search it starts working??

Are there optos to Merlins hole, I took a look, but coulnt see any?

thank you LTG for the help!

I think I finally have it fixed...I checked wiring back to the board for the switch, but not the VUK, I seated and reseated and it has worked twice now after being dormant for a few hours...should have done that when I checked the switch, hate these grey moments...happening more and more often...duh

Can you do an RGB Color-changing lighting upgrade to a MMr LE circa 2016?

Thanks guys! I'm just back from checking out a MMr LE, and the verbal deal is done. This will be second MMr LE...the one pin I want back after all these years! ...and the seller, very nice guy, has a SM LE...the other pin I want back, lol...

Ive looked through the manual for my MMr LE and cant find specs on rubber size. Can anyone give me the sizes for the rubber just above the right and left outlanes? As well, are the slings rubber standard size? Thanks in advance. BTW, after a 6 year absence, MMr LE is back in the house...and loving it!

Perfect, thanks LTG.!

As for full flipper assemblies, is it Williams that work for an MMr? In the manual it appears the part number is PIN-A-15849L2 Or R for right I guess...but I can't find this at pinball life - can you only get them though Chicago pinball?

Man, if we were in the same town, Id invite you out for a beer, thanks again LTG!

Quick modding question - I have a MMr LE: I installed Lermods green troll lights (Medieval Madness REMAKE Trolls Illumination) as per directions to the power supply in the cabinet. as per directions, the lights stay on and create light bleed to the inserts around it. They provide foam to block the light, which I have installed, but there is still light bleed.

Previously, I installed Pinwize's LED Trolls and these LEDs get their power from a troll coil, therefore, the LEDs are only on when the trolls are up - no ongoing light bleed.

My question is, has anyone installed Lermods green troll lights to the troll coil on a MMr with success. Since both mods are LED lights, very low draw, I would think it would work, but just checking the pinside wisdom and experience before I redo and maybe have to undo.

Thanks in advance!!

Can anyone point me to the proper full flipper assemblies I can buy to replace when needed? Is it simply the ones for MM Williams?
