I have a STTNG with a color DMD which has been temporarily taken out and is currently in my TZ in HD white.
STTNG will be leaving the lineup to make room for others. MoPLE, STLE, WOZECLE and THLE
Have had a STLE on order for six months and they still have not officially confirmed there is going to be one.
Quoted from Jean-Luc-Picard:Can you tell others how a Color DMD can be replaced and moved into other machines. I think many of us would benefit from this. (Most of us are waiting for CDMD)
It's easy. Just swap them over.
If I can do it, anyone can.
Yes. Any color DMD (even the older ones - after an update.) can be used on any supported game in full color by downloading the free firmware update on the website.
The color DMD can also be used in any B/W games in single color in either dots, HD or Scan Lines.
They are also bringing in a sigma display for Stern games in single color in the next few months.
Quoted from Jean-Luc-Picard:I imagine this data is by far more amazing than data's emotion chip "in some sense". What you are saying is we don't have to wait Months, Months and more Months for our TNG 'COLOR DMD' to come back in stock. We can buy whatever is out now? I am sure by tomorrow others will have questions. To see ST:TNG in full Color DMD. As well to be able to fork out $400 USD in a DMD that can be interchangeable via the listed supported machines such as " STTNG, WW,AF,SS, MM and AFM.. via. Colordmd.???
That said, Thank you for your info I shall sleep now....
Correct. Buy any color DMD they have in stock and just download the firmware for STTNG from their website.
You will be amazed at the difference. The best mod ever for any pin.
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:Anyone have the laser cannons? I am pondering getting them but I think they will take A LOT of the challenge away from the gameplay and make it too easy. Any opinions?
They look awesome but they do help you with the shots. You just have to learn what spot the laser is at to make the shot.
Help.
Since I moved my STTNG down to the beach, I have a problem I have never had before.
Lock 1 & 3 are fine but lock 2 does not give me the ball back. Machine goes through the locate ball sequence and the. I get end of ball bonus and on to the next ball.
Any one had this happen and know how to fix it.
Cheers
Paul
Quoted from nicoga3000:Rules question - how do I light mission start and away team after I finish a mission?
Once you finish a mission the 'away team' will light up. Hit the ball into the VUK to the left or under the top flipper on the right. Select the next mission with the flipper buttons.
Quoted from Nokoro:Crap. I think I ordered the wrong ones, as I didn't see the 7/16" ones being sold. I ordered these:
http://www.pinballlife.com/index.php?p=product&id=3358
which are 3/8", similar to the ones Marco carried. I'm guessing the 1/16" on the outer diameter won't matter. What do people think?
I think that they wouldn't have two sizes if it didn't matter. JMTCW
Quoted from Jean-Luc-Picard:Until recently AUD was 1 to 1 USD right now its 1 to 0.93.
So Stern is selling NIB at 9296.50 USD?
When I use to live in Sydney the currency conversion was about 1 USD = 2 AUD I was living the dream lol. Wish I bought a few Pins when I had the chance.
We have to pay for shipping and tax plus the distributors profit so makes it a 10k pin in Aus and NZ.
Quoted from Kcbbq13:Just ordered!
You wont be disappointed. I have one in MM, AFM, TZ and IMVE.
If you could only have one mod on a pin, Color DMD would be it.
Quoted from Kahanaohana:dayum!!! wtf? so what are your strategies/secrets to reach such a score? Tell me your attack plan, i need to break 200m and reach E.A.
Main strategy is to try to stop the ball from draining.
Stern Pinball has posted new Star Trek pinball code version 1.6 for the Pro, Premium and LE editions.
The updated code features substantial refinement and some new features:
• Medals are a new feature that awards Bronze, Silver and Gold Medals based
on performance during missions. Medals are also redeemed at the start of
wizard modes as a lump sum of points. Medals create additional incentive for players to perform well during missions.
• End-of-Ball Bonus has been tuned to play a more significant role in the
scoring strategy.
• Scoring has been re-balanced across the entire game.
• Numerous potential game exploits have been addressed based on comments
from players and observation during tournaments and location play.
• LE and Premium light shows have been enhanced.
• Throughout all models of the game visual effects, sounds, speech,
presentation and choreography have been enhanced.
• In addition numerous bugs have been fixed.

Quoted from 0geist0:Almost unplayable when I wax it...lol
Didn't think the new playfields needed waxing.
Quoted from jawjaw:52? Anyone have more warps? My best is 27. Hitting the warp ramp on cue is tough. I can hit it during gameplay now and then but tough when you really need it. Sometimes you can kind of craddle the ball with the third flipper or knock it up a little bit to get an easy shot. Going for the warp ramp on every ball launch is a good way to practice. You can get a nice skill shot award if you do it right. I feel pretty good when I get that.
Quoted from Eskaybee:I'm gonna guess here that either your on 10 ball with extra ball at every 10 mil points; orrrrrr your onto sensor wire came loose and started firing free warps. Mines done that before. Either case nice warp champ
3 ball game. I did think that there might be something wrong. I did get a lot of warps but didn't think it was that many so thought there might be something wrong. Will check the sensors.
Yes it goes down as well but you can set a fixed score for extra ball so it's the same every time for everyone.
Quoted from Eskaybee:I'm gonna guess here that either your on 10 ball with extra ball at every 10 mil points; orrrrrr your onto sensor wire came loose and started firing free warps. Mines done that before. Either case nice warp champ
This happened again yesterday. Eskaybee, could you please tell me where is the sensor, I can't find it and nothing I can see looks like it has come loose.
Quoted from knockerlover:I have a similar problem with the warp ramp falsely triggering... from warp 1 to warp 9.9 in 12 parsecs. It's only happened a few times so I can't pinpoint the issue.. would love to hear what you find out.
There is an opto connector under the playfield behind the vengeance.. Once I made sure the connection was good it never happened again. Wasn't exactly sure which connector it was so I just made sure all of them were good.
Quoted from TBatti:I think a separate thread/club should be created for ST TNG. There is too much volume to go through.
There already is a STTNG club.

Quoted from MustangPaul:I hope SOON. I have the dmd so just waiting for the program.
Me too. In the meantime, it looks pretty good in blue to match the armour.
