Quoted from MattElder:

Thank you for the update. I'm #60, so hopefully I'll get notice tomorrow that mine is ready so I can head up to Benton for pickup!

Quoted from GamerRick:

How did you mess up your side blades?

Quoted from SpookyBug:

Apologies to everybody who has had issues with their games this week. These early games are definitely always tough to work out the new kinks. We 100% feel every bit of the pressure, and have been working 12+hour days every day to make sure this is remedied. We will never ever take for granted that people care so much about our product, and are doing everything in our power to ensure a fun and reliable game to you all.

Quoted from Pugster:

For those of you that have played the game or have watched the streams, when you drain or time out of a mode do you pick up where you left off if you start that mode again? Say you miss on the unmasking - if you start that mystery again do you need to collect clues or can you go straight for the finisher?

Quoted from PinMonk:

If it's more of a buzz - vibration. Tighten the flipper plate, or put small rubber pieces at each end of the coil. If it's more of a whine like an old tube TV/CRT, coil whine. About all you can do is change the coil.
I think it's more coil buzz, having not heard it, though. Much more common.

Quoted from PinMonk:

Sounds like RF interference, but hard to tell because the game music/fx keep masking it in that video.
I would unplug the speakers and see if you still hear it. That would remove or confirm RF interference as the cause of the sound.

Quoted from ManBarePig:

Just checked and made a video of my own inside the cab 100% from the flipper coils and i had the speakers off and amp powered down....

Quoted from spooky_dj:

Hey all!! (it's true that we never sleep btw). The whine is likely from the PWM controlling the flippers. Some coils/mechs will just sing louder than others, depending on part tolerances and such. If it's bothersome, I can add a menu option to change the period of that signal to something that either doesn't resonate, or is less annoying.
The start and launch buttons only flash in attract mode right now, however the next code update will have them working in-game (start flashes if you have credits and player spots, and the launch button will flash if there's a ball in the shooter lane (i.e. tells you if your shooter lane switch is active)). By the way, hitting the launch button when there is no ball in the shooter lane will lock which villain you have selected during the base clue-finding mode (I call it the "get a clue" mode). So if you rip that left spinner, if you can time it right, you can lock in which case you want to visit next!
(ps BallyKISS1978 make sure you're on the latest code! (currently v2023.02.25.00))
And currently the shaker fires during unmask hurry-ups, when your bravery is running low in a case (villain mode), and I think, bashing cutler's helmet during the cutler case mode (I'll have to double check that last one). We'll continue to add it in more places (certain jackpots, for example) in future updates!
Regarding all comments about the music; we definitely hear what you're saying. There will be more original music by Count D to come (he made all the villain mode soundtracks!), and we'll include options in the service menu that I think will satisfy most preferences regarding which songs you'll hear in game.

Quoted from BallyKISS1978:

Well found another problem. Mystery machine is cracked. I found it because I was looking to see if removing it would help get the allen key on.

Quoted from JohnTTwo:

Does your have all those sharp cracked edges as well?

Quoted from BallyKISS1978:

They screws don’t come up high enough. They end up coming out before they even touch the lockdown bar.

Quoted from BallyKISS1978:

I went that way first and didn’t work. So went the other way and still didn’t work. I need to add thicker foam.

Quoted from BallyKISS1978:

Please read my other post please.

Quoted from brerspidur:

Maybe take a step back and take a breath. . . You have several people attempting to help you . You originally mentioned adding foam with no mention on attempting to adjust screws. Check that the lever is locking completely. (Lock it with bar off to see how far it should go). I had similar issues where it wasn't completely locking, but bar was locked enough that it wouldn't come off. Just needs to be dialed in. I remember not so long ago when you were quite short with people because you KNEW it was a weld causing your habitrail problem andquite rudely telling people to read your original post, only to find out later it wasn't the weld, but I never saw any apologies come out. Either way, I digress. . . Just saying be aware of how your post is could brle read when everyone is just trying to help. . . .I could be off base, but oh well. . .

Quoted from MattElder:

I've read about some others that are also having the ball trap issue at the entrance to the blue wireform (as shown in the picture). I probably had the ball hang up there 7 or 8 times before I experimented with a fix, and after my latest adjustment I have had zero hang-ups after many games.
The fix is to bend the the wireform tine (on the right) down, to open the gap enough that a ball can't wedge in there anymore. And after you bend it down, bend it slightly to the right so that it barely sits underneath the edge of the upper playfield so that the ball can't smack the tip of the tine. It works like a champ now, and no matter fast or slow I test-roll a ball off of the playfield, it goes straight down every time.
SpookyLuke - maybe you guys can start doing this to games on the line so that this is no longer an issue.
Also, as you guys see in the one pic, I had one of Captain Cutler's arms fall off (also a fairly common issue), and just an FYI on this, it's a 7/32" nut driver that you'll need to put it back on. And some Loctite, of course [quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from MattElder:

Now that I'm back home, I just wanted to add this pic of that wireform tine position after I bent it. It sits at approximately the bottom of the upper playfield, and just under the lip of that metal piece. Hopefully this helps others get rid of the ball trap.
