OH, I am so all over this. Looks fantastic!

Quoted from TimeBandit:

Finally get some boards back. Here is the AC/DC pro in full premium replication. Met pro is next. I also have a bunch of custom effects. Videos of that a bit later, my code seems to be clogging the mcu up a bit at the moment. This will be better than the premium.

Timebandit,

First off, this mod looks fantastic and will undoubtedly be in the 'must have' category for the supported machines.

That brings a question to mind though - what is the official status on AC/DC Pro and Tron? I saw AC/DC mentioned in a few replies (and even in video at the beginning of the thread) and saw where you mentioned that it was done, but all discussions on it kind of died off after that. Same for Tron - just wanted to know where they officially sit as ideally I'd love one for each of those games.

While I'm asking, what other games are you planning to develop for? Is Iron Man in the plans by any chance?

Thanks!

Most excellent... I'm definitely going to be in on a kit each for AC/DC and Tron. Thanks for the detailed response as well - helps to understand where everything sits and what the order of operations are.

Quoted from TimeBandit:

As always Broken, firstly thanks for your interest. AC/DC is officially to be released alongside Met. I am waiting for the first production run of boards to come back so I can dedicate a board to my test machine, polish the code and check the installation procedure of the sockets. AC/DC will include a bonus of a Fade to Black type effect during Back in Black that fades out the GI as switch hits are accumulated.
Tron is currently fourth in line. It requires the completion of the porting of the low level led strip drivers from my custom strips across to commercially available strips. This is almost finished by the way, and it also allows me then to work on the single bulb RGB GI solution which is also coming along nicely. The single bulb solution is required for machines that are not driving separate Blue/Red/White GI strings in the same way that Met and AC/DC premiums do.
Which brings me back to ST Pro, which is next after Met and AC/DC get out the door. ST will see the kit in full flight. Colour ramp lights as first shown, plus single bulb RGB GI.
After these four are done, if interest is sufficient, I will move on to other machines that are appropriate. I don't think this is necessarliy a mod you can force onto every machine successfully, and once the machines are not replicating a Premium lightscape, then the whole package needs to be created from scratch, which will take a while and will certainly need a feedback cycle from users. IM would be cool, yes.
