Not a glitch. But I thought worth mentioning here. Anytime you do a Full System Install, you'll need to recalibrate the spinning house and legs kick out.

Easy to do. If you need help, please email me [email protected] and let me know and I'll send you the link to Daniel Tonk's video that shows how easy it is.

LTG : )

I thought there is one already in the settings.

Maybe that's intentional, it sounds like it would be cool to have a different colour for the ball save and extra ball, no?

Turn the ball save off and it won't bother you

Dimmer Inserts won't help with the poor GI.

Extra ball needs to be on 20 YBR trips, not 10, put the points on 10 and the extra ball on 20, 20 in a row is honesty not that difficult, the ramp feeds itself at just the right speed to continue hitting it over and over

Please explain. The only thing that helped my WOZ was adding spotlights. Fail to see how less light will make more light. Maybe my common sense is getting in the way of rationalism.

Same reason you can dim the dash lights in cars and trucks, surprised this cannot be done for different room lighting conditions for WOZ. I thought Jack mentioned that it might be added in the future but I cannot find where he actually said that.

Good explanation of what I thought was common knowledge to most everyone. But I suggest being proactive and putting the spotlight kit in. It is well worth it, because just like the annoying strobing YBR insert lights that still haven't been addressed, I'm guessing the decision to leave it as is has been finalized. I mean how hard would it be to lower the intensity and strobing inserts? The fact that they haven't yet means someone at JJP knows better than we do what we like. ......Damn those stupid stobing lights.

During battle the witch, when you lock a ball in the Winkie guard VUK and immediately drain the other ball, there is a wait period before the game recognizes the drain and ends the witch mode and thus finally kicks the locked ball up and drains it through the castle pf (I believe the upper pf flipper is disabled).
I experienced this on my game and another game. I am going to melt that witch soon enough!
Anyways, could use a shorter wait period there.

Also, I have ball save off as default. However, crystal ball mode could possibly use a 2-3 second ball save for modes like reverse flipper and no hold flippers. I have not yet got to reverse on newest code yet though to verify one isn't there. Maybe this is as intended because it is a 2x scoring (or 3x) mode. As it is, the player must be immediately prepared for the ball feed (as well as prepared for whatever nuance the mode uses) from the crystal ball after the mode starts. It just felt like a cheap drain. Maybe my feelings will change as I experience the crystal modes more and then hopefully don't screw it up.

I'll check into that Skulz. May just be a quick timer change. Or it may be the modes ending before the game processes the ball in the trough.

Btw, just an fyi, my Woz started going into ball search mode upon hitting the start button all of a sudden. So, somehow a ball got lost and I just dropped another in there. Works fine now! No idea where that other ball is....

May have jumped over the backboard? Happened once to me in like 3000 games. Couldn't find it for 2 days. Flipped the playfield up and heard it fall into the cab

P.s. There is an option I'm pretty sure to allow it to start with less than 5 balls. It will still do 1 ball search though to try to find it.

Regarding the addition of highlighting of LEDs on the playfield image in single LED test mode:
LED77 - TI(N) MAN and LED79 - (T)IN MAN are reversed.
LED101 - WINGED (MONKEY) and LED102 (WINGED) MONKEY are reversed.

When you get both a high score and YBR champion the game reverts to AAA for the 2nd set of initials. It will show the initials you entered for the high score, but then reverts each of them to A.

Did they get the GI fixed with this update? I played version 1.23 and could barely see the playfield. Will Hobbit have the same GI system?

This just isn't going to be all fixed via software.

Another great update! WOZ just keeps getting better and better. I still haven't reached Battle The Wicked Witch but it's awesome that the game now has it's first of two wizard modes.

Thanks to JJP for continuing to crank out regular code updates for this game.

I'm hoping in one of the upcoming updates that we get a lot of call outs for jackpots and emerald , jewel / reward collect

So the game still has no jackpot call outs? Did they switch up the music yet for different features ? I know on. 1.23 it still just keeps playing the main loop which gets very annoying

Please tell me this is just a troll because you can not be serious about this.

Off the top of my head, the following music is in the game:

Shooter lane
main play
(OK these are the ones you are complaining about)

Witch's castle playfield
Twister mode
4 x Munchkin Modes (all different)
Crystal Ball modes (all the same)
Witch Hurryup
Fireball Frenzy
ECMB part 1
ECMB part 2
Rescue MB
Hurry-build
Toto Escapes
4 x TNPLH parts
Bonus

1.24 added:
Wicked Witch battle
Wicked Witch victory
Haunted MB

I mean seriously, puh-leeze. Most of those have been in the game for months, too.

Thank you Keith I think you left him speechless!

WOZ has more music then a vast majority of pins out there.

KEF - Please ignore the people who are clearly WOZ haters and simply talking out their ass. That guy doesn't even own a WOZ so I'm pretty sure he hasn't a clue about how "annoying" the music is or isn't. And by the way...it isn't. There's tons of variety, and you're doing an incredible job of programming. I wish my RGB boards worked as well as your code! Keep up the great work and have a great holiday!

Someone who can't help but boost Stern in every thread on Pinside trolling a WOZ thread? Seems pretty unlikely.

Keith,

I applaud the new software update. Though I have to defend Derek a little because he was playing at my house on Version 1.22. I believe he was referring to the witch mode as you tend to hear the with a lot as that target is very easy to hit. I think 1.24 is much better though it still needs jackpot call outs. It is very difficult to manage the balls and get look at the screen. I also do know that when you only play it for a game or 2 the witch seems overpowering.

Most important thing to know about the witch hurryups is that you CANNOT collect them til she finishes rising and the countdown starts. Trap the ball while she goes up then clobber her as soon as you see the timer move.

Oh, and Derek, your trolling is quite uncool. I see you're now selling STLE games - posting bullshit about competing titles is just childish. We have an STLE, it is a great game and stands on it's own four legs just fine. Stop trolling please.

Yes I have put plenty of playtime in on the game and like hank says there are definitely flaws in the game that needs worked on; it still feels a lot like ij4 with the witch meaning that you are just always seeing the witch non stop and very few call outs in the game so far I mean come on no jackpot call outs at all ? I know that there is other music in the game too, but still feels like all you hear is that same damn main loop over and over again and not to mention that the 4 way split of the screen must go . I am just being honest here that is all and if I did not support you guys at all then I would not have a hobbit on preorder gees

Yep your right I don't support JJP at all; I have a hobbit preordered

All I can say is play better. Hell, once you do the witch 3 times it changes modes to the fireball anyway. Also, the main loop is interrupted and replaced anytime you start any of the many features. If you're sick of it, then start the tornado mode, or ECMB, or Rescue, or Fireballs, or a Ball mode, or Munchkins, or whatever.. you get the idea.

There are no Jackpot callouts in ECMB because you're not scoring jackpots, you're doing the end sequence of the movie. The wizard's callouts "Step forward tin man!" etc are the audio bits for this MB. Rescue does need more audio. Other MBs don't feature jackpots in the traditional sense so it would be stupid for such callouts.

Got you bro I definitely want to play the new code

The 4 way split must go? That's not going to happen especially at this point and it does its job fine.

What pin other then music pins have multiple theme songs? None I can think of off the top of my head. Not MM, not LOTR, not STTNG, not TZ and not even ST...

Your grasping for straws here dude. We get it, you don't like it. move on.

I like the WOZ update a lot.

Please explain how I beat the with on fireball mode? I assume I shoot the blue shots? This is confusing to newer players. Voice call outs would and will be a great addition to the game. With most of the lights on and only changing color I think the player needs guidance on what shot to hit. It needs dumb ed down just a hair with some voice call outs to let the player know whats gong on

There are really only 2 things lit. Blue shots keep the mode alive, red shots end it. 3 red shots and the mode is over. You don't really "Beat" it, you just keep amassing points. The problem is there are MANY more red shots than blue available and they can be hit off ricochets so you need to be careful.

It's a cool mode. I admittedly sometimes like to set the scarecrow on fire on purpose for a laugh

HAHAHA

I do agree with Hank that a bit more help like some callouts would clean that up and help newer players figure things out (I really want some jackpot callouts!). However, after playing 1.24, I don't feel the need to suggest anything to Keith. It sure seems like he has this thing in control. Even the stacking seems smoother now. It is just feeling very polished, and I'm sure he will just keep making it better (and it is already crazy good).

Have you won a "free" game in 1.24? Wow.

Unless the fireball jackpot is high, I usually only shoot blues that are convenient with whatever else I'm going for at the time. If I need the ramp and it's red, sorry scarecrow...

We enjoyed the replay animation til the qualifying score quickly reflexed to 800K. Had to set one score level at 100K for free game to see it regularily or for novices to see it LOL

Hello on the atmosphere:
-is it possible to adjust the sound between music and sound effects?
-during certain missions, is that the sounds could increase alone?
-in the castle, the music cut too quickly

The code ends. It is great now.
These are the things I'd like to see added:
- Multiball "hanted"
- Sound for jackpots during Multiball "RESCUE"
- Shots of victory when Multiball "Emeuraude City" is finally
- Sound for winning horses
- A sound to capture Dorothy
- Increase the difficulty of "kill the witch"
- More atmosphere (sound,,) during the mission to "kill the witch"
-When the witch is killed, I'd like flips intersect to see the scene (like "destroy the Rings") and only then 5 balls.
- Increase the difficulty for Extraballe for yellow road (10 advances, it is too easy)
- Put sounds when emeralds have been earned
- Final big
- Glenda adds a ball during a multiball

I know that Keith has already anticipated many of these things even more.

Digging the new replay callout!

Game is way more enjoyable now that 1.24 is out. Addition of Melt the witch means I now spend all my time shooting winkie guards (since I suck at the castle playfield ) Couple comments:
* Advance YBR lights don't seem to match how the game actually plays. Lights alternate between left and right loop when they are hit, but you seem to score an advance regardless of the light position.
* I have had more crashes (all in 4 player games). Had 3 crashes in 2 hours last night.
* During one ECMB + Fireball frenzy + weak flippers, I had all music and ECMB callouts stop playing. It was really strange to have the game making basically no noise other than switch hit bleeps and bloops (that's the technical term for those right?).

I am really glad jjp are getting the code out regularly and in to our hands. Really excited to see more get added, but also really hope stability improves (I am more than happy to live with the stability as is until all games modes are done).

Welcome to Pinside!

It's been posted elsewhere but in case it hasn't been noticed, there's a couple sound bytes that don't come off "polished". The release of the Emerald City Multiball and the call out is at a lower level than other calls. Also there seems to be no exclusive byte that is attached to the "Dorothy Captured".

Again, hope that I'm not beating a dead horse (or one of a different color) but those are two areas that IMO could be a bit smoother.
