Quoted from 30FathomDave:Upgraded to .93 tonight (Prem) and I’m getting way more hangups on the fork than I was getting on .92. Ugh. I’m going to mess with the ramp tomorrow and see if it’s something I can adjust out. It just doesn’t return low enough to let the ball pass on a soft hit. It sticks up just enough to be an asshole.
I still love this game, but that fork is currently the bane of my existence.
I removed my ramp and had a look at it,I realized it has a spring that helps pull it back down and the rest is just gravity,my ramp needed a little stronger spring or more gravity,I used a drop of zoom and a stronger spring and that works to pull the ramp Down,not to strong to stress the motor
Quoted from Rob_G:I would be more worried about stressing the motor driver board.
Rob
It seems fine but I don't know what else to do ,that ramp need to be below the playfield,the ramp should be ballbearing or something better than a plastic bushing,mabey mine is faulty,it should just drop like a stone free and easy even with out the spring
I joined the club even though I have a kiss,bm66,gb that all need work,but I played it on location for weeks and I changed my mind about the game,yes it is stripped and the code is not finished but there is a fun factor that is undeniable and I am having a blast with my pre,I am even having fun with the multipliers,they are way easer to understand than I originally thought and now I realize you don't need a ton of toys on a playfield to have a lot of fun
Quoted from dnapac:I am having a blast with my SW premium. I am in the process of installing a few mods (I hope tasteful). A couple x-wing miniatures, the lighted Star Destroyer and a plasma bumper by lightedpinballmods.com, and a frame around the mini screen. I'm trying not to overdo it, but I like making my games mine. Once I get the plasma bumper installed I'll post some pics or a video. I can't stop playing it! Just one more time.
I recommend mirror blades on this game also ,very nice

Quoted from zaphX:Hey folks, I’ve developed an intermittent issue with the opto on the right side of the inner loop. It is intermittently failing to register when the ball crosses its path, which causes failed captures and shots not registering.
I’ve not yet had to troubleshoot an opto, other than cleaning it (which I’ve already done.)
Can you give me tips on how to make this solid again?
I just had the left ramp opto go out on my pro,all The others worked and the opto checked out fine.i traced it to a bad node.

Quoted from Jediturtle:Many prem/LE owners will balk at this, but the pro really is a good option. I've played multiple prem/LEs and the hyperloop is a decent gimmick, but to me it doesn't outweigh the issues it causes. The Death Star shot is hard enough without adding a 50% reject rate into the mix, plus the forks kill the flow of the Hoth shot since they can't drop out of the way fast enough. On the pro, both shots are always smooth as butter, 100% of the time. I personally wouldn't trade that for the ability to watch a ball zoom around a racetrack a few times. I also love how the pro handles Hyperspace multiball, with needing to smack the captured ball out of the horseshoe and then lock another one in there. It's a great feeling shot, and still feels special and different than other multiballs. Opinions definitely vary on that, but I would urge you not to overlook the pro. It's an awesome, vastly underrated game either way.
I have owned both A orginal premium and now a comic pro,I have lots of trouble with the hyper loop And the frustrating Hoth fork block,but when you hit the shot and maybe are lucky to get more than one ball looping it is cool but I love my comic pro and agree it is underrated.

Quoted from Meri-cah:Just joined the club with a very low play premium. Traded my Iron Maiden premium straight across. Super fast game and still figuring it all out. So far only issue I’ve had is after shooting the fork ramp into the Death Star, if it’s in the mode where it sends it back out, it goes directly down the middle. Doesn’t seem to be an adjustment for that but if anyone has a suggestion please let me know. I’m very handy and rebuild machines, so I’m not afraid of tearing things apart to fix them
That what makes the premium so frustrating and fun,I had to admit I have a pro but had a premium in the past and I want to trade my comic pro loaded for a premium plus cash of corse,if anybody want to trade.maybe someone really like the comic art on the pro and mine is very very nice

Quoted from ChipScott:Question:
So I changed the drops to those lighted drops from Mezel Mods. Love it. No question at all. But when changing them out. I noticed a grease or something (looked intentional) on the back side of the original black drops. I imagine it was put/smeared on to keep the drops smooth and lubed for all the up-down action.
Reason I'm wondering now is that the far drop and it's neighbor are a bit "bricky" now since the change-out, and I'm thinking now want to take the drop mech down and put some of that stuff on the back in of them as I think it would help smooth the action out.
...so the question is, what is that stuff and any recs on what to safely use?
Thanks
I don’t know what is on your drops but they should be clean from anything other then what they put on the disrupters so they can be seen by the optos,I use black paint.

Quoted from gweempose:I really want to purchase the 2Niro light saber mod. Mezel used to carry it, but I no longer see it on their site. Do any North American distributors sell it, or do I have to order it straight from 2Niro?
Just get it from nitro,easy enough!
I sold my beautiful comic pro to upgrade to a premium,I loved my pro and the comic art is the best imho but I am really enjoying my new premium and I have modded it up with lot of goodie’s,light saber is waiting for the controller from nitro in France or work with 1.10 but other than that it is good to go and what can I say the hyper loop and metal ramps are the reason I went though the trouble to upgrade!

Quoted from dutchi:Maybe its the honeymoon fase, but why did the game get so much hate? I absolutely love it.
Got a real nice deal for a comic premium so will be upgrading on friday the guy is a non pinhead and got it for his son, they even put a playfieldprotector in. Will take that out right away..
Is the premium stuff worth it in this pin? Will read all the pages anyway. What a fantastic underrated game!
It seems like the game is getting more and more popular and demand has gone up quite a bit,fantastic game!
Quoted from Hop721:Hi everyone! Joined the club today with a used pro. Yay! I’m sure I will be inquiring about a lot of things but, My first big question is where do you find the Death Star super laser led replacement board #520-7041-00 in the us? Forgive me if my Internet skills are lacking, but I’m only seeing European suppliers for that. Mine has 2 lamps out (somehow, seeing the Death Star smiling at me is not so menacing lol) Thank you in advance and I appreciate all help! Love this game and looking forward to putting in many hours. Fast, challenging and the theme is….Star Wars, man!! Stoked!
[quoted image]
Easy fix, just order a few 3 mm green leds,make sure they are clear not green color,I just fixed a few on mine,easy to unsolder the old ones and replace with new ones,of ask a friend to help if you can’t.
The board comes out with two easy screws and one connector.
Quoted from Hop721:Ordering led’s now and confused a little…should they be green or clear? Appreciate your help!
Edit: just realized you meant green with clear lens lol
I have a ton,I can send you some for free!
Quoted from Hop721:Aw, damn! Missed it by THAT much lol
Much appreciated but already placed the order. Now I’ll have a ton!
That is exactly what I bought,no worries!

I have owned both and I loved my pro and my premium both,the pro has a cool ball lock that you can smack and the premium has a hyper loop,I have never seen more people ask the which one is better pro or premium .
I upgraded my pro to premium because of the steel ramps and of corse the loop but if the pro came with steel ramps I think I would have not gone through the trouble.

Quoted from Ecw0930:Do you still have a source for the clear targets? Thanks for the pics! Looks good!!!
I went ahead and bought the lighting kit.
Hoping someday someone will come up with usable clear targets.
I keep forgetting who I buy them from,ask pinsider Zitt for where to get them,fun mod and if you need help for joe to do it ask me I have good pictures?

Quoted from ClarkGriswold:I only have the pro, but this game is awesome! I do not have the issues of cheap drains and only had to adjust just a couple things to get it set up to really sing.
Having said that, the game is fairly hard (I'm a mid-level player) and some games are short, other games, when you're really feeling it can last 15 minutes or more.
Only the pro, love the pro and lots like it netter than the premium!
Quoted from Loganpinball:I made a stainless steel ramp and segmented wireform mod for the pro models and I will be starting on the first set for a customer in the next few days. If your interested in these and have not seen the mod thread please message through pinside or Loganpinball.com. I wanted to post in the owners thread for anyone that does not look through mod posts.
These sets take 16 hours to make, sand, stone, polish and I playtest every set I make. Its $755 shipped to U.S.

Just an observation if you buy these steel ramps you will be able to install the ultra cool lightsaber mod that does not fit well with the stock plastic ramps .
