Its possible to increase bass audio without change subwoofer ? Look like tron bass are very weak compared to my LOTR bass.
thanks

Quoted from Reul1:

Pinheadpuckguy sold these. Not sure if he is around anymore.

It may be for the best that he is no longer around. I commissioned him to build a Tron Topper years ago and he never produced it. As soon as he received my money he faded away.

Do yourself a favor and get a 10" powered sub (Polk is a good one) for under the game. Just connect two wires from the existing speaker at the bottom of the cabinet to it. It will change your life.

I have that polk on every one of my games. I think a external sub and pdi glass are the 2 best mods you can add to any game!

Pinwoofer then with the amplifier kits. I used to be a huge FF supporter but am now a Pinwoofer supporter as their kits is a lot better at near the same price.

#9560 3 years ago

I have a brand new mini lcd mod does anyone want it and looking for a price check. I can put in marketplace
Thanks

one of my lighted bikes goes in and out. i have to pull the glass off and jiggle the wires to get it back on. really annoying. how do i fix that? just add more solder? i pulled it out and it's solidly connected. weird.

How is yours set up to stay on? Did you glue the button down or did you remove the button and solder the wires together? If glued down, I would recommend removing it, soldering wires together then gluing it back on. How is your power delivered. Did you solder to the ends where the battery goes or did you get the kit with the fake batteries that you just push into the battery holder? If soldered to the ends (my preferred method) make sure those joints are good and solid. If you didn't prep the surface real well it could be a weak point.

#9563 3 years ago

not my doing, but looks like button glued down and wires soldered onto the battery contacts.

#9564 3 years ago
Quoted from weaverj:

If it's the button glued down approach, often times that tends to come up a little and cause poor contact. Next time it happens try pushing that button before wiggling wires. If it works better I'm betting that is a source of your problem. If it was mine, I'd just check out the battery compartment solder joints too while I was at it.

Gents,

Does anyone do the stand-up target decals, ZUSE + 3 in front of Disc?
I know Pinball decals do them but wondered if there was different types out there?
Thanks....

You looking for Sterns decals (there wasn’t any supplied on the 3 bank as far as I’m aware) or are you looking for aftermarket decals?

#9567 3 years ago

Haven't visited this thread in awhile, but a big Thank You to whoever got the title back to lamp...

Still loving my LE, and it destroys me everytime I venture to the grid....great, great game!!

Either, in my case. Just need a fresh set.

Aftermarket....I’ve seen pics of Tron pins with the 3 Bank with decals accommodating the rivet. Different graphics to the ones ones listed here:-

If that’s all there is out there now then I’ll order these but would like to know if there are any other alternatives available?

anyone see this rumor Tron 3 is back on?
Jared Leto as lead
Daft Punk on sound track
Trying to get Joseph Kosinski to direct
.... mmmm

#9573 3 years ago

northvibe I’ve read the recent news that there’s a script already at Disney that the exec’s like and they want Daft Punk back above all else.

Not read anything new about Leto although I remember him being attached to old TRON3 rumours/news.

I have zero idea where Leto came from but that is where all these news outlets are saying. But yeah, the script is done, now it is DP and director time. I'm excited, but Keeping hopes and dreams to minimum so I do not disappoint myself.

So I watched Legacy the other month out of just flipping through, and then watched uprising. Both fantastic. and then randomly on YT saw that Disney has been posting clips from Uprising on their YT page for months now and recently.. is that normal? With D+ uprising season 2 would be great. Disney treated uprising like firefly.... adult cartoon, shown on a kids app/platform....great.....

#9576 3 years ago

I'm not sure why Daft Punk is the #1 priority in making another sequel. How about a decent story such as utilizing Ed Dillinger, Jr. or what happened to Lora/Yori? How about getting Jeff Bridges and Bruce back on board. The soundtrack for both Trons was great but I can't see the music being the most important thing to consider in making another movie as the article focused on Daft Punk involvement more than anything.

#9577 3 years ago

I'm just glad someone at Disney is passionate about anything Tron, even if it is just the musical score. If it takes Daft Punk to get part III rolling--great!

Because the music was sooooo good in that movie which made it extremely memorable and gave that emotionally link during the movie. Not only did daft P do the soundtrack, then they were in the movie and did a remix! They really brought that music to life. It was tied together so well.

I’m okay with some original cast but really, Disney is great at messing up sequels. They should just show more life in the grid via other people etc. hell I would take the sequel to uprising today.

#9585 3 years ago

i've recently thought about some kind of speaker grill, just can't find one i really like.

#9586 3 years ago

post some pics, please.

Same here non of the decals are to my liking like the one above is so bloody lazy. And the stainless steel ones don’t blow me away either, I’m thinking of designing my own and powder coating gloss black with a load of LED’s setting off the cut outs and edges with blue/yellow.

#9588 3 years ago

Vault the damn game already stern!

Yeah, the DMD panels don't accommodate the Tron LE badge either

#9592 3 years ago

ZfromEarth hope you don't mind my asking, where did you source your disc 3 bank stand-up target decals from?

#9593 3 years ago

Guys,
Anyone have thoughts on these:-
I like the girls translite - is the FF translite on its own a better quality one than the Stern?
Also, can it be installed with just the standard fluorescent tube or must it be installed with the kit as per the 2nd link?

Yes, I’ve seen his work but didn’t know if he did Tron - I’ll make contact with him.
Thank you

Edit:- Made contact - unfortunately he doesn’t do the Tron Girls trans-lite

That girls translight from FF is the Stern one. So quality should be fine. As for the animated kit, that is personal preference. I personally don't see the point for that translight but I'm sure others will disagree. For me, the only active part that is nice for this game is the portal light mod for the 3D translight.

#9598 3 years ago
Quoted from PeterG:

I like the idea of the flynns building but it is not there yet. I think you need to paint it. Dark red bricks. The grey is now to plastic for me. Also it misses something, do not know what. I would not put it over the scoop. Maybe if you want to share the 3d design, I can print it and see what can be done.

New version available, more "red".
Also the FLYNN'S logo turn on colors when the led is powered!

Could you make one without the falling "N"? In the original movie and in Legacy, the sign was fully intact without any damage to the sign shown.

Thanks for the info:-
Well it looks like I’ll have to look elsewhere.
For some unknown reason, Flipper Fidelity want 154 dollars shipping to UK to put a 79 dollar translite in a tube.
Maybe it sits in the cockpit of a 747 with the Captain - who knows
