I've owned this for a few days now, great fun. The theme is so well done, I'm surprised how many songs from the movie are in here (even if some are vague covers, like "Just Dropped In..."). And as I talked about in the Lebowski pre-order thread, MY GOD is it heavy and solidly built. Nice job! The whole package is a fitting tribute to my favorite movie ever.

I've checked into this thread now and then over its lifespan and remember tuning tips here and there (like with the Rug shot), but alas there are no key posts marked that I can jump to, so I was wondering if anyone had some tuning tips. Like the flippers, my right flipper doesn't have a stop point nearly as high as the left one. I know how to adjust that on standard flipper mechs but these seem different, but I haven't really looked at them in depth yet.

Also wondering if anyone has tips with The Dude ramp. The ball flies off it quite a bit, or hits the airball protector on the way up and rattles around and comes back instead of travelling through.

In the menu, there's Switch Test, which allows you to activate a switch yourself and see if it's registering, then below that there's Solenoid Test... which does nothing as far as I can tell. I assume I should be able to fire any solenoid I want in that submenu, but I've tried every combination possible (enter button inside the coin door, launch ball, start, coin door open, coin door closed), and nada. How is this supposed to work? Also while talking about the menu, I assume opening the coin door cuts off higher voltage to the machine? It doesn't say this on the menu when opening the door. I assume it does, just want to make sure.

I have a tip for you guys if your trampoline kickback isn't working. Mine wouldn't work about 25% of the time, and I figured out that the ball can sometimes travel too close to the plastic side of the outlane and miss fully activating the bottom rollover. I cut off a little piece of two-sided Gorilla tape (but kept one side on, of course), stuck it to the bottom edge of the plastic, so far my trampoline kickback has been 100% since.

Cheers.

Exactly this. Someone was over today to help me out, we took out the two standups next to the left ramp, they were bent back like a mofo, bent 'em back and reinstalled, within two games they were shooting balls into the glass again, probably because they're re-bent already.

We also took off the roof of the bowling alley, adjusted the car and the two handicap standups, and within two games the car stopped registering some hits again.

Which is to say nothing of the airballs off the left ramp which will probably need a custom PETG airball protector all the way down to fix it.

Touchy, touchy game.
