make the other switch blade closer gapped, so the ball cannot sneak through without triggering.

Quoted from Chosen_S:

The layouts are eerily similar on Woz and SOF
Maybe we need a rethemed WOZ turned Lionman!

Yeah, isnt it time for Swords of Fury 2? come on Stern, Jersey Jack, Spooky Pinball and whoever else, screw the movie/comic pinball themes let it happen!

#753 7 years ago

It will never happen heh...

All we can hope for is new playfields

My SoF have started to miss some lines on the top of the upper displays now, could it be a dying board or display?

Anything is possible, but it may be cold solder joints on the pins

Hmm, i'll check it, im cleaning the droptargets atm so i have the game "in parts" anyway.

#758 7 years ago

Thinking about changing out the posts on the game with either light blue or orange and then maybe changing the rings.

Any opinions on these combos?

i'd go with white rubber, because I do not like the spin that titan and superbands put on the ball. Adds way more spin than rubber really should.

#760 7 years ago

Well i fixed my display problem now, i sodlered every contact on the display board and now its back to its usual self.

And yeah, go with blue posts and white rubbers.

I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue where some of the sounds in my game don't play. The most obvious to me is the spinners, but others may be missing as well. When I go through the sound test mode, only 3 or 4 of them work.

Can anybody tell me what happens when they press the sound diagnostic switch on the MPU? I get a single sound effect (groaning sound), and I want to make sure this matches up with a working game.

#763 7 years ago

Hi I have uploaded the original correct order of incidental sounds.
Follow link to audio and good luck.
Try reseating the audio chips.

Thanks for posting this. To clarify, your clip is coming from the sound test, or from the diagnostic switch on the MPU?

I have tried reseating the ROMs to no effect. I'm not swimming in money so I am trying to eliminate everything else before purchasing a new set of ROMs.

#765 7 years ago

It's coming from the sound test.
Check all your switches are open as closed switches might have caused cpu to switch off certain sounds. Use the switch test feature.

I will try that when I get home. The reason I ask about the diagnostic switch test is because of the instructions in the pic I attached.

It says that when you press this switch, you should hear two rings. When I press this button, I don't hear any rings, instead I hear one audio effect.

Quoted from CaptainNeo:

colored LED's for GI's or backboxes always looks like shit. ALWAYS. I'll have a thread about that coming soon and explain it from an artists perspective and give examples on why it should never be done.

nope. my SOF popped and my T2 pop with a mix of warm/cool/colored leds. youre wrong. about many things. SF2 fo life!

Hello,

I noticed my "Special" plastic near the backboard is different from the usual one. It just read "Special" and there is no orange color.

Do you know if this could be an early production, or maybe a repro or something? Anybody else have this version?

20160503_175122[1] (resized).jpg20160503_175122[1] (resized).jpg

#779 7 years ago

Hmmm that is different....... mine is orange lettering & says " magic target scores SPECIAL when lit"

#780 7 years ago

Well, could be a repro, does your ROMS have prototype stickers and stuff like that?

#781 7 years ago

no

#782 7 years ago

I think plastic sets are still available for SOF so a repro? Idk? maybe , anyhow I have an extra one Ill trade you for that one

#783 7 years ago

No idea really if a repro or a rare one. It's also in good shape, so in doubt.. I'll keep it

Not sure if anyone is in the market, but will be listing my very cleaned, very restored SoF shortly. Hoping the lighting will be ok enough to snap some pics. Level II cleared and touched PF, new plastics, new ramps, LED displays, LED throughout, all mechs got new springs, sleeves, rebuilt flippers.....

#785 7 years ago

Here are some pics of my SoF: Cab 8.5/10, Translite 8/10 PF pretty darn minty http://s1209.photobucket.com/user/nerdygrrl/library/Swords%20of%20Fury?sort=3&page=1

#786 7 years ago

One of the best looking ones I have seen. (inside the machine that is) The cabinet could use some restoration. I would also change those bulbs behind the backglass so there isn't bright spots from the bulbs. Also looks like your flippers arent evenly angled. Can't wait to clearcoat my SoF so it shines like yours.

Hey guys.... I just installed my magnet apron cover and thought I'd share it with you... I love it! It's not permanent, it looks amazing and really awesome quality!!

Bring it broha

Quoted from Chosen_S:

I will. It's going to be a huge writeup with lots of pictures so you can see how colored light ruins the look of all artwork.

I just use warm frosted bulbs unless there's a very specific thing I want to accomplish, but it's still 99.9% warm lamps in the backbox on all my games, the colors look goofy when over exaggerated

Anyone have a use for a used SOF playfield? Has original mylar still installed. There is some wear near the upper loop inserts and the Release the Titans insert. Could also use a good cleaning. Might be a good candidate for a playfield restoration. Any idea what something like this is worth?

Hey there guys, joined the club a few weeks back and loving this amazing game!My one question is about the intermittent drop targets on my game, they register every so often and there's no rhyme or reason to it. I'm new to system 11 and I've checked the connectors under the target bank and on the board in the backbox where 'playfield switches' connect to and everything seems in check, same goes for cold solder joints in these areas. I've read how some people have reflowed the power supply connections but I'm just unsure of where to check for this - which board and which connections in particular? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Cheers

#800 7 years ago

In the club. Have owned a pristine SoF for 12 years now. Never leaving my gameroom. Just put on the orange Titan rubbers, really looks good with this game.
