Isn't this a post for a specific speaker set-up not for the standard speakers the game came with? Thanks.

Quoted from northerndude:

Yes, it's more for replaced front and cabinet speaker.

Are these apron lights ever supposed to light and under what condition? Mine don’t seem to and couldn’t find anything about them in settings. TIA

Quoted from jkashani:

Can anyone give me the best settings for the sounds as far as music and voice attenuation. Also, how do you turn off the gif awful knocker. Thanks in advance.

Quoted from wywin:

They should be on almost all the time, I think they technically function as GI. They're lit in attract mode, and you should be able to see them in the LED tests? Probably a loose / disconnected harness?

Quoted from Sugar:

I like knockers

Quoted from troon47:

"Wow, what knockers!"....."Why, thank you doctor!"

Quoted from Jkaping:

I’m frustrated. My upper flipper is acting strangely. The coil seems to hold its charge after I let go of the flipper switch. It will pause and then retract slowly. There is no binding, no issue with the EOS switch. I replaced the coil and it solved the issue for about a week and now the problem has returned. I think I’m having a grounding issue maybe? The standup targets are shocking me when I manually touch them, now I’ve noticed the metal mount under the lockdown bar is also holding voltage.
Has anyone else had similar issues? I don’t know where to start.

Quoted from awesome1:

Did you replace the coil or the coil stop? Replace the coil stop and sleeve if you haven't.
As for the grounding, start at the basics and ohm from the ground in the game's plug to the ground in the game and the game's grounding braid strap to insure continuity. Then verify that your outlet is properly grounded.

Quoted from Jkaping:

Replaced the coil (and sleeve). I inspected the coil stop and it looks fine. I have extras but didn’t see the need to replace.

Quoted from ExSquid:

Buddy of mine came by yesterday and adjusted the shooter rod so it was straight and everything was perfectly lined up but I'm still getting messy launches manually and with the auto launch. We just don't know what else to do. We adjusted the power to the auto launch to everything we could think of, it either hits the magnet and goes straight down the middle or it just kind of bounces around and either doesn't make it around the initial "loop" and comes back down into the right inlane? or it makes it is just slow and messy. Sorry I don't know how else to explain it. Extremely frustrating.

Quoted from Sorokyl:

Hitting the magnet is basically the expected behavior on "full plunge". and its quite useful. If your auto plunge does this a lot, turn the power down a little bit. It shouldn't STDM here. Make sure your playfield is level, maybe tweak your incline some. That bit doesn't have anything to do with your plunger.
as far as the rattling plunge that doesn't make it around. that happens to me some times. Makes me think this is why he put 3 relatively low-skill "skill shots" right there... so that you don't get too mad at him when it happens.

Quoted from ExSquid:

...there is a PRO on location near me that's flawless and the ball goes around the top left flipper every time the ball is launched nice and smooth.

Quoted from mcvetyty:

If this is true (and I question that heavily), then know that this is not expected behavior, so don't try to replicate it at home. That skill shot is supposed to be pretty difficult to hit and certainly not something that should happen regularly on full or auto-plunge.

Quoted from ExSquid:

I'm trying to get it " close enough" so as to not have a rattling ball coming out of the initial launch. Running out of ideas. I can deal with everything else. Last night I played and it auto launched the ball to the right and the ball got stuck under mechas arm.
I have all legs the lowest they can go right now. That seems to be the point the ball least has problems. Who knows.

Quoted from FatPanda:

Do you have a cliffy protector in the shooter lane?

Quoted from ExSquid:

Negative, everything is stock right now except the external volume control I put in last week.

Quoted from awesome1:

On my machines I generally put the front levelers all the way in (or a thread or two out to allow some fine tuning), so they are as short as possible. I then put the rears at least midway out to almost all the way out, to make them taller. This usually gets me in the 6.8° to 7.2° range. I have Godzilla at 7.0° and my ball launches are very good, both manual and auto.

I can honestly say I do a lot less than that. Ill try to go higher in the back than I was before I put them all the way down, I always thought " too much" ruins the flow? Thats why I never did it. Im sure im wrong.

Quoted from Apex:

Just to confirm, you are supposed to be able to stage flip the upper flipper correct?

Quoted from fooflighter:

So here's the deal...if you watch a slow mo of your launch, I bet 99.9% you are either coming off the launch ramp with a side bounce or you are hitting the metal ball glide on the playfield and causing a rattled launch.
Here are the fixes as mine had the same:
1. First make sure your game is level side to side and front to back. I've found 6.8-6.9 degrees measured at the flippers to be the sweet spot on my game. Yours may vary. Use a torpedo level with a digital readout preferably.
2. My Godzilla is the first playfield that came without side cabinet switch plates that double as playfield centering stabilizers. Without these in place, my playfield could move left or right about 3-4 millimeters once lowered. I ordered a set of left and right switch plates from Pinball life and they perfectly centered my playfield in the cabinet which also aligned the shooter lane to the auto an manual plunger.

https://www.pinballlife.com/switch-plate-right.html
3. Check your manual plunger first. The plunger tip should sit on the ball dead center or as close to it when struck. If you are either left or right, you may need to realign or tighten your shooter rod slightly. You can use small washers to shim the rod one way or the other in extreme circumstances
4. Check the spring on the rod. The custom shooter rod was sent with a red spring, where the one on my game factory was a silver one with no color. Different tension springs will launch the ball differently and your spring may be hitting right on the metal divider. Either shorten your plunge to just miss the metal or increase the plunge to clear the metal. It is a skill shot and does require some finess. I've found using 3 fingers versus a hand grip gives better alignment control to strike the ball clean, providing a better rollout from the shooter lane.
5. Check your auto plunger gap. Your prongs may be too close together not allowing the ball to sit low enough in the shooter lane for a manual plunge resulting in less force of the plunger hitting the ball. Use needle nose pliars and insert between the autoplunger prongs to spread them slightly. You should be looking for a 1/4 to 1/2 inch max distance from the plunger tip and the ball when it's at rest. You also want to make sure the prongs are making contact with the ball throughout the balls launch. Use your fingers to move the autolauncher with a ball in the lane and observe if you are making direct contact with both sides of the ball through the launch...if not you may be one sided providing spin or side load on the ball causing the ball to have spin or english right out of the lane providing for a rattled launch. In this case, use the needle nose and bend on prong in the desired direction to make better contact
6. Check your tip. I use the factory Stern black rubber, make sure it is properly positioned and square on the plunger tip. I use Titan silicone everywhere in my new machines except the plunger tip. Rubber takes the abuse and provides the best launching power IMHO.
7. Consider turning down your autolauncher power from default to provide less force and short plunging the ball to miss the magna grab
It's going to be a long process but if you follow the above checklist methodically, there should be no reason you can't have a perfect shooter experience on your machine.
Hope this helps

Can anyone tell me WHERE I can find settings to reduce power for auto plunge, etc. I looked and can't find them in game settings or standard. Maybe I'm crazy?

Quoted from ZoraShinoda:

How and where do those switch plates install?
I have a Jurassic Park also so if you give me a general location I can see where they are on Jurassic Park for comparison
