Hi Everyone, We've had our HW pinball for less than a month now. Getting it to where it is installed, was a story in itself. We just luv our pinball machine. No doubt about it, it's the best machine available. We have absolutely hammered our machine. 500 5 ball games in 20days, 2000 balls. We just luv those airballs, it adds to the unpredictability of the game. Lots of small 1mm pit marks on the playfield though which gives it character. Not so good for pinball purists I suspect. The hw build of the machine is exceptional and the code is pretty bug free considering its complexity. Well done AP.
We ran the machine factory shipped 20.08.01 code for 80 games and encountered multiple A/V crashes as well as many stuck playfield lights. After installing 20.12.10 we only had an A/V crash a couple of days ago after 450 games. This time the screen went blank and then cycled the primary 3 colours every 5 secs. Reboot fixed it always. We still have the stuck light problem every session and I'll go through the RGB cabling as suggested to look for loose connectors in connector plugs. I'm an electrical engineer, worked at IBM prior 2000 as hw/sw/comms specialist, educator on all platforms. Its my job to maintain and root out problems and resolve them. My mate is permanently connected to oxygen 24/7, COPD, and not a bad pinball player. Hence the moniker, handle. We're two old blokes having a hell of a fun time on our first pinny. Did I say that we just luv our pinball machine. P.S. Our hands, legs and arms get very sore and we have to take a few days off to recover. RSI.
