Glad to be in the club

#508 2 years ago

Man I’m glad the list stalled 30-40 days back .I just had the time to read the whole thread .Talk about excitement ! The license issue had to be such a bummer to only do a 180 to an eruption of joy ! I myself had a series of events happen where I ended up with a deposit down on a LV. Incredible job the team is doing for sure .Not to put anyone down who spends they’re time making mods for this hobby but I challenge anyone to come up with one out there that will change the game as much as this one .I even tried to get Marc to make a version for IMDN and MET lmao .Sorry guys I tried .

I’ve been looking for the video clip of the light show in action with it set in and focusing on the apron lights only .Can’t find in here or on Youtube .Please help lmao

#828 1 year ago

No I was looking for the one that showed a behind view with the strobes and multi ball effects .Thank you though

#830 1 year ago
Quoted from Baggerman:

it is on this ones you tube page.. he has other videos. Dig a bit.

Time is a hot commodity lately but finally found it on post 345

#831 1 year ago

Now I just hope the July date comes through for delivery .From what I heard ,Alien is one of the most immersive pins out there and this apron will take it over the top from what I’m seeing

#833 1 year ago
Quoted from Baggerman:

Container from Italy departs this week.. so 3 week travel time so yeah July looks about right. Full container too from what i understand both SV and LV onboard. Lots of happy peeps in July i think!

That’s music to my ears , thank you buddy .

I was just wondering how many different lighting effects does the apron have and is there any possibility we can get a updated “sneak peak” at one we have not seen yet ?Other than that thanks Marc and to you and all the people in this thread “Happy 4th if July weekend !” Cheers

Quoted from Zablon:

Is there any strobe effect implemented in the game? How does it look?

Post 345 captures the moment

#873 1 year ago
Quoted from Red_Devils:

Ok guys we're on the home stretch now. We have a small production batch on the way and should be here by the end of next week or earlier. we will then make an installation video and contact the first people on the list to submit final payment before shipping. The balance of the aprons will be coming on 2 pallets all are almost boxed and ready to go.
You guys are going to be so happy once you receive these.

Very nice .I can’t wait to get this pin here .Shoukd start shipping any day now .

Quoted from Zablon:

What is the round chamber in the middle?
Mine is 80% installed. Mostly straight forward so far. Had to stop for work.

That’s a pic of @Mageek’s pin

#954 1 year ago

Bless you Zablon .A little on the short side though

#956 1 year ago
Quoted from Zablon:

What do you want to see? Hard to film the entire (beacons,etc) and play. I just set up a multiball, and stepped away to get it all in frame and started the camera.

Just messin around , but…..if you would shut your lights of and give a taste woukd be much appreciated Thanks for sharing buddy .

How long have you had your pin ?

#958 1 year ago

I’m just curious how hard it is to play in the dark .My best games are in the dark as I feel it keeps you on your toes .IMDN fotd mode and Rush fln mb are my favs .Can’t wait to see what this has in store for me .

#963 1 year ago
Quoted from Zablon:

I don't think it needs a fix really.

Thanks bud , that’s music to my ears

#967 1 year ago
Quoted from brado426:

One thing kind of weird is that I like the transition between the multi-ball mode back to single-ball mode better than activation of multi-ball mode. The mood goes from chaos to peace within a few seconds... and you can feel it.

That’s exactly what has me all giddy .That right there .There’s games that seem to have it all but I’ve still, to this day have yet to be engulfed with the atmosphere of any pin .Monday can’t come soon enough .I don’t even know if I want to unbox it until the apron arrives .

#990 1 year ago
Quoted from moat-pin:

Have you owned/played the Hobbit in home? Pretty immersive!

No I have not just on location so far .I swore WOZ would be my last widebody going down the 180 staircase but here I am

#997 1 year ago
Quoted from Rob-T-800:

Where can I get the screen frame and sleep chamber?

Look for Mageek in the PB Alien thread .I’m not sure if he’s making more or not but very nice guy shoot him a PM.

#1001 1 year ago

Now to get the Queen down the 180 staircase

#1005 1 year ago
Quoted from Royale-W-Cheese:

Ouch...lots of stairs.

Actually my 14 yr old is getting pretty strong now .As for me ……couldn’t open my hand for 30 minutes after

#1007 1 year ago
Quoted from Zablon:

I read this as 180 step staircase and was scratching my head - where do you live? Rapunzel's tower?? You meant 180 turn.

Lmao .9 foot ceiling but the turn is real tight after I finished the basement .Standards are fine .This was a tank .

#1049 1 year ago

I can’t contain myself .This game is so damn incredible as is I can’t imagine what’s in store when it arrives .You guys need to officially name this mod .It deserves something fitting .You can’t show up at the Twippys with “Alien Apron Mod”

#1050 1 year ago

“The Queen” would be cool and give a plug to PB’s new title

#1055 1 year ago
Quoted from Baggerman:

Since this mod has limited reach (100 sold), we need every owner to vote for this come Twipy time!! Keep this top of mind when the vote season opens up.

Of course ,but what do you think about naming it ? In DP , Hellhouse is not called “deadpool scoop mod” and Pinstadiums has a more exiting ring to it than “brighter lights strip”.I’m not trying to name it like some people that try to name others newborns ,I’m just saying they need a name that sticks out as they will be creating more of these for different titles .

#1059 1 year ago

However ,I will throw some suggestions in the box I would guess a pinhead spends roughly 66% of a game staring at the lower portion of the machine .We all know the apron is there ,we just don’t “see it “. Now with the “Miniskirt” (tm), we will need to figure out how to re attach our eyeballs back in the sockets you know ,so we can see it again

#1074 1 year ago
Quoted from DoorCounty:

I see some Aprons have text below ALIEN that says Limited Edition. Who gets this version?

You had to state which version you had when ordering I believe .

#1075 1 year ago

If anyone has info (pictures)on the 3D trans that was produced for the LV I’d greatly appreciate it .I’ve been searching with no results thus far .I’ve heard he’s finished with them, but we’re only getting started with these pins landing and I’m just trying to make a decision on wether to purchase a SV and use the blue lighting or wait and see if I can find a LV or possibly another run .

#1091 1 year ago
Quoted from KJS:

Hi...check out the Alien owners thread
Mike has a couple spare for sale or if not I can do another run

Thank you and can’t wait to see it in person .

#1092 1 year ago

I had mine here yesterday but nobody was home to sign for it . Now I’m camping overnight at the post office so I’m first in line

#1093 1 year ago

Arrived !

#1095 1 year ago

I’m hoping to get to it later this week , as without money from these other jobs I would be pinless. This game just keeps getting better , our whole house plays it and we play it more than any others when first got them .

#1103 1 year ago
Quoted from Red_Devils:

You cannot run the app from a phone it has to be run from a PC, you need a USB cord to connect from the board to a PC to program it. You can't do this from a phone.
Also just as an FYI the app will not work on Apple devices, you will need to run it in a Windows emulator on a Mac.

Is this just if you want to customize it ? I have not checked out instructions yet might tomorrow night and hopefully install this weekend .

#1105 1 year ago
Quoted from Red_Devils:

Yes, The app is used to customize and also to troubleshoot any issues Oh and to update the firmware to take advantage of any new updates we come up with

Thanks my man , I’ll lyk how it goes this weekend

Please take a look at the documentation provided here. Be sure to read through the instructions and look at the video. The video summarizes everything pretty clearly.

I’ve been watching it and using the instructions .

https://www.evolutionmodsllc.com/documentation

Thank You.I did everything using just the instructions and am very close to finishing. I have not seen that video I’ll watch it as I didn’t like any screws I had for mounting ,,I’ll go get exactly what I want for it .Came with machine screws not sure on those .

#1226 1 year ago

Just woke up and am delighted it’s raining out .I’m painting the exterior of a house so I have all day to finish up n play . I have all the wiring done and one question I have is about the strip lights .Do they just stick on the foam with the duct tape ? I have not seen anything yet on them .

#1228 1 year ago

Thanks .I’m in the home stretch , are we using the old screws to re attach new apron ?

#1230 1 year ago

can’t get screw in though even though it’s centered perfect

#1232 1 year ago
Quoted from brado426:

The apron should have come with new screws.

the only screws that came with are very small machine screws .Do you have a size? i’m running to the store to get mounting screws anyway .

#1233 1 year ago

the 2 sets of smaller screw that came with do not fit

#1235 1 year ago

The circled one ?

#1237 1 year ago
Quoted from brado426:

It should have come with one set (2) of metric screws for the front of the apron. The 2 sets of screws, I believe, are wood screws for securing the AUX boards. You're sure you can't find 2 metric (not wood screws) in the box somewhere? They're pretty small.
Instead of filling up this thread with support talk, you could use the form on our website and we can get whatever issue resolved: https://www.evolutionmodsllc.com/contact

If I can’t get it I’ll go there ,I appreciate the help .

#1239 1 year ago
Quoted from brado426:

The front mounting screws should be M3 8mm. I'll get this added to the documentation.

Thank You

#1240 1 year ago

I’m pretty much all set .Have not turned it on yet as I’m installing a new complete ring set (light blue /translucent mix) and a few other things .Will report back later .The instructions and video were spot on ,very easy to follow thanks team !

#1241 1 year ago

I’m liking the blue/clear mix so far .

Thank you for replying. The store only shows the kit for the Heighway version, and the kit for the Limited Version. Will the Limited version work on an SV?

It’s a absolute must have
