I used ones from data east/sega. They need some slight modification on the back but its easy and fit no issues

Well, my SF2 survived YEGPIN & the under 12 'Little Flippers' tournament this weekend. There was an issue Friday as the top-left flipper coil overheated, burnt out and started smoking. Found this thread on Pinside when we we're diagnosing the issue...

Viperrwk was 100% right on the money with that statement. We replaced the coil for the top-left flipper and adjusted the EOS. The rest of the weekend she ran great without any problems!

When I got home and went over everything I found this inside the cabinet. My first revenue from pinball, lol

And another shout out & thank you to toyotaboy for his amazing bartop mod. I had that thing on all weekend from 9am-1am Friday + Saturday....and from 9-5pm on Sunday. It worked great!! Lots of inquiries and compliments for that bartop mod!!

Anyone comment on the DMD colorization? :p

Actually a few of the organizers did. They loved it when I explained you redid nearly all of the animations. Your name was displayed during attract mode too

I was just wondering if anyone even noticed. I can show you how to pull my name out of the attract if you want.

Pinballers and enthusiasts noticed. I think the kids and casual pinballers probably didn't know the difference.

I think you said you just need to delete that frame to make it revert to the "say no to drugs" message?

yeap, the malenko trigger frame and you get back the no drugs bit. I actually found my old SFII for sale at Allentown pinfest, made me miss it!

I didn't see any SF2's at pinfest. Was it there on Saturday?

Can anyone tell me if I have the correct legs for my Sf2?

A buddy of mine at YEGPIN said he thought they were old EM legs.

There were 2 SFIIs, I was there satuday. One was on the row closest to the vendors, the other (my old one) was missing the backglass. If you go to the pinfest thread you can see it in one of levi's pix

Bummer, don't know how we missed them.

Hi i am looking for a dmd cover for street fighter 2 as well as a display cover for Gottlieb Victory.
Thanks

Bump for the leg question

3ac3fb9c56749aaaf08073ba30c91f137a9709a7.jpg

manual says 27 3/8 for the legs

http://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/D-4337

I got 4 new 27" legs from PinballResource. They are the right legs for the table but it still stits about 1" higher than my williams in the front.

The correct legs are part #4337 which are 27 3/8 not 27. Just to not confuse the person asking for the correct leg size. Attached is a pic from the manual and again the link to the marcos product page : http://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/D-4337

I measured my cabinet legs and they are all 27 inches. (that's from leg fold to the top of the triangular edge attached to the cabinet; not including the extenders)

I think I'll have to order a correct set

Hey all, working on sorting out my weak vuks. Filter board came in today, so swapped it out. Also got new (and correct) coil sleeves. As I was taking things apart to install them I noticed some pretty nasty soldering on the coils. So here's my question - what is the correct direction for the diode? If I'm reading the schematics correctly (IF...) I believe it should be oriented the opposite direction, band pointing away from the red/orange wire. Could someone please confirm the correct direction of the diode for both sides please (left and right vuks)? Thanks in advance.

Are those the ehonda + bison/balrog VUK coils?

You betcha.

I'll snap a pic tonight

Couldn't get a good pic unless I disassembled the coil. From my garbage pics it looks like the diode band faces the red wire

Nothing from color dmd. But pin2dmd has the ability and the files are free to load. (Thanks to @malenko)

Ordering and receiving your hardware from German gaming supplies is another story though.

Good luck...you're gonna need it.

Try to find a used pin2DMD maybe?

i guess i missed it, is it hard to get them from the guy in germany now for some reason? Ive been waiting to pick one up for sometime but keep spending my extra pinball money on my homebrew game lol

I just wish some one would buy like a dozen and pre-configure them to make them plug and play. Once I get a pile of parts and have to configure and mess with something, it gets shelved. I just dont have time to dick around. I really like the work Malenko did too, its a shame I cant use it yet.

Msg stpcore He does all my printing and I sent him the original file.

Look forward to seeing some pix! I just gave the original alt to Softstrum and the body art too; so hopefully he can get it installed on my old SFII and post up some pix.

Hey guys, had to sell mine. Didn't want to, needed the $. The guy I sold it to is having a party today, and he did a factory reset. Now he can't get it back in free play. Any ideas? I never messed with the menu buttons at all.
Hopefully this guy will buy an alt translite from stpcore and the pin2dmd from Malenko.
Thanks for any help.

Found this on rgp:
**I set up a webpage detailing how to do this for Street Fighter 2, but
I'm going to paste it here so that all the people with Stargates and
all these other fine pins have it in the archives once and for all.
This and more information is available at:

http://www.geocities.com/pinballjim2000/sf2/sf2.html

-----------------------------
I've been asked this so many times by so many people that have found
my
website, that I've decided to write it up here.

Yep, there's a free play option on the Gottlieb System 3s. Don't
dispair,
lots of people have trouble with it... in fact, my Stargate had a tiny
credit button mounted on it because they didn't know how to set the
freeplay!

All you had to do is open up the coin door, and on the left hand side
you
will see a little PCB. There's a slider switch to put the machine into
tournament mode. Put the machine into tournament mode, and a menu will
pop up on the DMD. (if it's already in tournament mode, I think a
quick slide
back and forth on the switch will bring the menu up if it doesn't come
up
automatically when you open the coin door)

What you want to do is set Free Play to YES and set everything else to
Normal. Then just close the coin door. Can't remember if the menu goes
away or not.. if not, just power off and back on and you're good to
go.
The start button should now flash during attract mode.

As you play the machine more, there's a nice feature with that
tournament
mode. You can customize the settings to make it harder or easier in
both
regular mode and tournament mode. Essentially, you can have two
variations of the rule set that you can quickly toggle between. You
lose the
freeplay when you're not in tournament mode, but it's just something
to keep in
mind.

Personally, I have everything set factory but have the match feature
turned off, specials award extra balls, and my extra ball levels are
150mil,
300mil, and 450mil and have the self-adjusting turned off.

Hope this helps someone!

He has put it in tournament mode...no dice. Maybe he didn't restart machine.
Tryin to help this guy out, he's a good dude.

Does the start button work? Have him check the contacts/solders

Other than that, put in tournament mode. Then turn it off and on again?

Thanks man!

Can he still play fine with a credit...?...just put max credits on it...get thru the shin-digg...then mess with it after....???!!!.........Joey

New coin door with no coin mechs doh.
But thanks for the suggestion Joey my dude.
He's got 2 techs/buddies there helping him now.

^This

Tournament button not working. No response from it. Boggs did get it to work though by setting replay award to 0 points. Now the knocker goes off everytime you hit start.
He is totally interested in the color dmd and alt translite you did Malenko. Where should I direct him to purchase these? Stpcore? Thanks for all the suggestions guys. Now I wanna play SFII though....

stpcore sells the translite. the pin2dmd well theres a couple vendors or you can roll your own. Some of the vendors take a while to ship
I wish Randy would take up on my offer to redo the coloring for ColorDMD instead but until he does pin2dmd is the only way.

Doing some work on a friends SF2 and had a weird thing happen.

The right sling shot was not working (stuck on until it blew a fuse). Replaced Q3 and it was back in business.

Played a few games. Worked fine save for a few switches I still need to replace.

It was left in attract mode and I came by to play a game. Was going fine until it went down the left subway.

The ball was stuck. I checked the coil and it was melted, BUT, the kicker was not engaged. It was still in the down position.

I’m not sure when it melted. Since it was in the down position, it leads me to believe that it happens during game play and the mechanism hung up. It just seemed to happen awfully fast.

Is there another cause I should be looking for?

So I got a weird issue. Some of you may recall that I had issues with my lower left pop bumper. Back story:
Old coil was burned, fuse popped.
Replaced those, fuse still popped.
Turns out transistor Q2 was bad
Instead of replacing I said F&$K it and bought a rotten dog driver PCB
Unit ran fine for about 4 months

Last night I played and realized the bumper wasn't working again. Replaced fuse and it popped. Obviously the Q2 transistor is stuck on again. Can anyone think of a reason that one specific transistor on the original and rotten dog would pop? Another interesting fact is that the same transistor had already been replaced on the original driver board. This has happened too many times to be a coincidence. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
