I think this is it for a long while as Lyman will be on the next title. All we can hope for is that he revisits this on his own time to perfect band member modes or add another mode for ride the lightning

Should be easy enough to fix with pinball browser, no?
Actually id love to see blackened replaced with the four horsemen since that was the original intent for the band member mode.
I played a game late last night but noticed the coffin kept lighting up from time to time for, what I thought, was no reason to be lit (no mode, still needed hits to lock ball). The light would not stay lit. It would come on for a second or two and go off. Anyone else note this? I have a premium met.

Yes I noticed that too it'll glow red for a few seconds then turn off then light up again weird hey.

A german engineer would say... the glass is too big (wasn't constructed correctly)
Quoted from Gorgar1:Yes I noticed that too it'll glow red for a few seconds then turn off then light up again weird hey.
The coffin now lights when a ball goes down the inlane based on the default award extra coffins setting. Hitting the captive ball while it's lit grants and extra coffin hit as per the rules changes:
- Added an adjustment to award extra coffins from the captive ball. The default is "+1 W/ RETURN LANE" which will award 1 extra coffin if the captive ball is hit within ~2.5 seconds of a return lane switch.
Now if they would only post the Pro code I could try it out...

I thought so. I wasn't sure if it was some kind of lighting effect or an error. It was drawing my attention to it though.

Cool thanks.
I only played six games last night, so I know it's a small sample size, but this. pin. is. AWESOME. Got coffin multiball twice in six games, without even really trying, as opposed to the usual one in a hundred. The second crank it up mode is no longer a massive coffin grind, thanks to the new inlane rule and lowering of items needed on later CIUs.
I was in such a zone that I managed to finish FWTBT for the first time, and collect it. The light show got awesome halfway through FWTBT, which I later found out meant that I had started Blackened. Unfortunately I didn't see the intro animation, and drained pretty quickly after exiting CIU. Blackened has maybe the coolest GI effect ever. Can't wait to get there again!
Like others have said, the new scoop kickout sound is a step back, but it's such a small issue that I can't be bothered to care when the rest of the game is nearly perfect.
Quoted from yancy:Blackened has maybe the coolest GI effect ever. Can't wait to get there again!
Being a pro owner, I'll just have to imagine how cool it is. 
Quoted from PhantomHacker:I just downloaded the code and it does say 1.6 for the pro. Updating now....
yup me too!!
Quoted from Hashman:Shame they changed the kick out hole sound. I liked the original.
shoot I really liked that sound..
Quoted from Frax:My wife got it somehow.. backing up the old code now so I can rip the scoop sound if I don't like the new one..
good Idea !!! I might have to ask ya about that later on
Quoted from WeirPinball:I still can't get the pro yet either
If I use Chrome I get "The page you are looking for can not be found or is no longer available." I had to go in and use <shudder>Internet Explorer<shudder>. I knew there was a reason I kept IE. 
Quoted from vtec16:Page is down.....arrrrgh!
Not sure if this helps, but here's the direct link.

I feel like its the same as the last update in the pro.. still sounds wicked to me
Quoted from TheLaw:"The page you are looking for can not be found or is no longer available."
Like I said above, clicking it, I get the same message. If I use "Save link as...", it works.
Quoted from TheLaw:"The page you are looking for can not be found or is no longer available."
Got it! Thanks, need to click save as, noted above thanks herg! Verifying now, come on hurry before I need go to work!

Whooooooo I Love This !
Updated my pro. I like the captive ball lights now. I also really like the change to the mystery kickout sound. That was the only thing that got on my nerves from the last update. It just didn't fit the game before.
My first game was pretty good with over 100 mil and a couple of CIUs. Is that like changing your oil and your car is faster and handles better? 
...those ramps sure did feel easy!
Quoted from epthegeek:If anybody managed to DL the Pro 1.6, couldya dropbox it (or something) and throw me a link? Stupid page still isn't working.
Here ya go:

Wow...Love iT,The GI are freakin amazing Band memeber mode just adds to the great game already there.
After shooting the lane go for the block Inside 2.5 sec and get an extra hit ? is this right ? Fuk'N Love it !
My dream Pinball Theme is now an Amazing Gameplay Pin !
Thanks Lyman I knew it I knew it !
Hopefully, "Blackened" isn't the end...hopefully, summer rather than winter it will send...can't wait to get home and update this software. Thanks Borg and Lyman!!!

Didn't they take down the Pro code because of a bug? Better to wait it until its reposted? I don't know the specifics of the issue (obviously)
Quoted from WeirPinball:Finally got it via chrome
Looks like they finally fixed their link. Cool.

Default settings the coffin shot flashes when ball goes through the lower inlane. If hit while flashing, it counts as two hits in the cue for CIU but only one hit for the lock total. If you start an SnD strobe on the ramps prior to going through the inlane it looks like collecting the SnD award overrides the +1. At least that is what I thought I saw.

Quoted from Shapeshifter:Still no pro code on Stern website?
Sterns website sucks, just download it thru the dropbox link that schudel5 posted.
Quoted from Apollyon:Blackened mode is very cool.
SPOILER ALERT!
Lighting fades in and out.
It's more than that...it's hard to explain but it's like a color changing pulse effect...like it fades from white to purple-ish and back. I only got there once last nite...but it was cool as f*ck!!!!

I got there once too, and yeah, cooler than the other side of the pillow. Gotta be the best GI effect I've ever seen.
