What you are describing sounds like an easy switch adjustment.

Thx, it was the switch.

Any ide on the gate, it's not opening and the coil still fires even when the gate finaly opens

For the gate, I am sure it is mechanical. Make sure it is connected properly under the playfield, and moves freely when you manually activate it.

You know, I was on the pre-order list for the premium when this game was announced, and I've had this game since that time. I migrate to this game in waves, but I have to say that every time I step up this game, I remember how much I love it. I had forgotten that I had ordered some asteroid mods from the Mezel's sometime back, and they arrived in the mail yesterday. I went ahead and put the asteroid strip in front of the falcon on the left, and the asteroid cluster underneath the Star Destroyer I had placed in the back right. I think it really fills the space nicely. Just wanted to share the pics.

Game is near a window, but it's early morning and the overhead lights are off...so it's a bit dark, but that's my preference in the game room.

Quoted from ChipScott:

I'm not questioning your choice of lighting. I'm asking for a photo in daylight, so I can see what you are trying to show and make a choice whether I want to order that as well

#7311 4 years ago

The sub-woofer has acting up since the first Rancor Mode (the volume at 21 pushes it pretty good). It was hard to tell where the issue was, but restraining the leads from the speaker-connector to the speaker-coil eliminated it. I replaced with a 4ohm equivalent of Stern's BKSORLE (the BK is 8ohm, SW 4ohm). It has resolved the sound issue and provides deeper sound, but required a higher bass-volume setting. Looking at the factory speaker; That magnet is quite small. The new one is very nice and strong. I like it. I plan to do an Iron Maiden too.

I picked it up for $11.85 on sale. It's over, now $24.99 Link; https://www.amazon.com/Goldwood-Sound-GW-208-Replacement-Speaker/dp/B0002ZPSD2/ref=cm_cr_srp_d_product_top

Hey @sprudeldudel
Sure, of course. Here's a couple pics with game lights off and room lights on, and a couple with the game lights on.
Overall, I think it looks really neat. I certainly was willing to not use them if it made everything look junky, but I did not feel as though it looked overdone or crowded.
Actually, I felt it added a reasonable amount of depth to the pf in general. Besides, the asteroid strip on the left in front of the Millennium Falcon corresponds well with the games video mode, and the smaller asteroid cluster underneath the Star Destroyer on the right corresponds well with the imagery at the beginning of TIE fighter multi-ball. So, I think all together it came out nice. I attached the small asteroid cluster to the far screw at the middle upper lanee, and I attached the asteroid strip to the nut associated with the hyperspace loop.
Cheers.
Chip

I am not so sure about the asteroids... I do love the Star Destroyer and have one in mine, thanks to your guidance.

I'm about to move on a NIB LE. The production number is in the high 100's. Is the anything I should know about on these as far as defects or mods that need to be made? I prefer the pro translite. Does anyone know where I can purchase one? Hoping to join the club this week!

if it's new in box then it will have a tube that contains both the Pro and Premium translites. you should be all set.

If it doesnt come with the pro translite, I have an extra one

#7317 4 years ago

I wouldn't mind having the pro translite.

Congrats!

The LE comes with all 3 translites.

There aren’t any problems out of the box that are needed for the LE. Shooter lane protector if you want.

Congrats! this is an awesome game and very addictive. So far I found it to have some pretty strong staying power. If it doesn't come with one, I would consider getting that shaker motor. To me, I think it's well integrated in this game.

#7320 4 years ago

My game had been getting worse and worse with the loop shot SDTM drains. Scores and progress were suffering as you might imagine.

Finally I screamed ENOUGH! I rebalanced the table and promptly scored 15B, only missing Wiz Mode by a couple Boba Fett shots.

I had a 3B+ bonus! Loved it.

#7321 4 years ago

Is the shaker a must have on this game? I checked sterns website feature matrix and I don't see one included with any model. Is it integrated well or is it too much?

For me it is a must buy. Very well integrated into the game code.

Thanks, any recommendations on which shaker to buy?

I always by the PBL shakers as they are the cheapest and give just the right amount of shake. If you buy multiples, Terry gives you a bulk discount at 3 I believe.

I have the PBL as well and it’s great. It’s now $80 vs $100 for the Stern branded shaker.

Stay away from cointaker unless you want something that shakes your whole neighborhood. The Stern and PBL are the way to go.

Can you share where you got these? I've been thinking of adding some to my game, but was always weary about how big they would actually be. these look to be a good size.

#7331 4 years ago

Ok I pulled the trigger on a star wars pro.

Never seen any of the movies (one I watched halfway trough about 20 years ago...).
But I love the multiplier blowup possibilities. Curious if it will hold, but I always enjoy it very much when playing at a location or at a friends house.

Are they making these? I’m guessing it’s a 1up machine?

Quoted from Psw757:

Yes, they're making them. Cost is expected to be $500.

https://www.theouterhaven.net/2019/06/e3-2019-arcade-1up-has-just-unveiled-a-star-wars-arcade-cabinet/

Yesterday, Arcade 1Up had shown off both a TMNT arcade cabinet and a Marvel arcade cabinet. Following that, they teased a surprise for today, one that they recently unveiled and ended up being a Star Wars Arcade cabinet. Releasing later this November 2019.

This Star Wars arcade will include the classic Star War games from Atari:

Star Wars
Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back
Star Wars: Return of the Jedi

That’s not all as this cabinet will also feature a fully functional yoke – the same one that the original Star Wars arcade included. This kit will be priced at $500, making it the most expensive unit from Arcade 1Up so far. In retrospect, the controller alone can cost hundreds, if not thousands of dollars. So $500 is a steal.

#7341 4 years ago

I got one of the Asteroids 1ups on sale. They were down to $75. Pretty awesome deal, but I don't much interest in paying much more than that. It's neat, but the buttons feel very cheap. Don't be surprised if that yoke is disappointing.

#7342 4 years ago

I joined the Premium club today. Now I have a Pro and a Premium. Going to try it out to see if I like the gameplay of the Premium as much as my pro before selling one or the other. My pro is such a blast to play that I am really concerned the Prem would be too much harder that it would take away some of the fun.

So far (one night) the premium is every bit as fun as my Pro! I don't really feel it is any harder than the pro

The Last Jedi or the Topper. What will come first?

#7344 4 years ago

Is there a way to adjust sling power? I can do this on my BM 66 Stern, but couldn't figure it out on Star Wars

#7345 4 years ago
Quoted from precisionk:

both will be letdowns

Not to sure how I did it but I'll take it!

Unboxed my star wars pro this evening.

3rd game was just great.. (3 balls, 2 xtras, outlanes mid position, factory settings)..

This is what you get when completing all modes but waiting to play the planet modes one after the other at 40x

Nice score. Star Wars Pro is one of those games that plays easier with the back legs jacked up since it’s easier to trap up, and less side to side action. Try it at 6.5.
