I don't know if this is a bug or if I am missing something.

Once while playing Nero 2, I completed 7 of 10 shots. Then nothing was lit to shoot for! When play then turned to Player 2, who was just beginning Nero 2 (no shots yet completed), nothing was lit! We both shot everything we thought we could shoot for, but nothing seemed to be registering towards the 10 shots needed to complete the goal.

I have found there that it goes blank for a while but then comes back. Maybe 3-5 seconds of wondering Wtf. Maybe there is a pattern and you get big points of you hit it blind?

Saw this, too. Should probably be brought up in the "bugs" thread.

Looks like someone else saw this problem and it might be unique to 2 players: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/post-st-15-code-bugs-here#post-1869487

Yeah, happens every time with multiple players, but I had not seen it with one player. Definitely a bug, and was there as far back as v1.41 (probably since first release)

I haven't seen this yet in 1.5, but I can confirm it happened to me with a 1 player game in 1.41 so maybe they just never fixed it.

Has anyone reported it to Stern yet?

#11 9 years ago

I sent them some details and how to easily reproduce it on Friday after confirming it still happened in 1.5.

Not that this is the answer, but when I cannot locate a shot, it seems to always be the warp ramp that is lit. I just don't notice it as easily, as the emblem is not located where your eyes are fixed during play.

When the machine was still new to me, I sometimes failed to notice a lit warp ramp. In the case of this Nero 2 bug, though, I checked and the warp ramp was not lit.

I look at the warp ramp also and nothing

Something similar on Nero I is there is no Final shot lit on my machine, the one that is alternates with another color along with the Nero purple shots. Anyone else see that or maybe my LEDs are not 100%.
