Quoted from Time:

I have felt underneath the plastic protectors.

Dont matter I've seen the felt compress and cause wrinkles.
The metal standoffs are always the best.

How long were you on the list?

Since ARA released the 40

#870 4 years ago

Man I absolutely love this game. The callouts are amazing. It plays great. I have no playfield dimples at all. I was worried about the music but I really like the instrumental versions. Really blends in well.

Couple small issues but I'll get them figured out. The ball doesnt always launch up into the shooter in the lower bowling alley.

The ramp rejects but the 3d printed clip is supposed to fix that.

And really really fast shots to the donny lane will come around and go SDTM. But rarely.

I am so in love with this machine. It shoots like a new bally/William's.

#871 4 years ago

Has anyone else noticed how they do the gi?

A small solid plastic peg through the playfeild to a board mounted led below the playfield.

#875 4 years ago
Quoted from Manic:

I actually don't see why this game would dimple much anyways. Just like CFTBL the PF plastic window protects much of it and the game doesn't launch those full playfield airballs that beat the hell out of other titles.
My old CFTBL has no dimpling either but why would it? The balls never leave the PF.
.

I've gotten quite a few airball on this game especially if you get it flying around the donny loop then smash the ball into a target or post its bound to get air.

Just really good playfeilds. My huo first run Metallica premium has almost no dimpling either.

Just seems the playfields were better 5 years ago I guess.

#876 4 years ago
Quoted from cpr9999:

The Led light pipe is an interesting and less expensive way of dealing with the GI lighting.

I think in the end just different ...

Definitely different but works really well and you dont get any flickering from loose bulbs.

Quoted from cpr9999:

Replacement: display
All,
What are people’s thoughts on the custom display used in TBL.
I contacted Taiwanese manufacturer and they will still make a few of these even though they are discontinued. $500 each plus shipping.
Is there any interest?
Should we worry if this one goes out?

Have you contacted Barry for a price through him?

#923 4 years ago
Quoted from JustEverett:

Think they are doing batches to Nitro then to CT?

I was with cointaker also. I wont do buisness with nitro.

#935 4 years ago
Quoted from colonel_caverne:

No problem buddy.
Just It is always a challenge for me to read pages of english!

Barry is making them himself.

#937 4 years ago
Quoted from colonel_caverne:

For previous buyers or/and new orders?
Thanks

Just new order right now but supposedly is building some EA games soon.

#940 4 years ago
Quoted from colonel_caverne:

2 last questions please.
Can we order directly from Barry or need to deal with distributors?
Is the code finished?

Dont know either of those answers

#948 4 years ago
Quoted from DANGERTERROR:

The car is at an angle to the PF. It hangs on the wall.

Pics?

#960 4 years ago
Quoted from ToucanF16:

Why do you ask? Are you having issues? Looking for a spare?

I wanted to buy a spare set but so expensive.

#975 4 years ago
Quoted from LT4play:

Melissa has a few spare parts for TBL. Including playfield set:
https://cointaker.com/products/the-big-lebowski-playfield-set-3-pieces

Wow this is crazy. I just ordered parts directly from Barry and he charged me more then cointaker is charging.

How are they cheaper through a second party? And I'm not including shipping in my prices.

#988 4 years ago
Quoted from Rensh:

What kind of differences are we talking about? If it is a few percent it could just be fluctuation in exchange rate where the dollar was higher when CT bought their stock.

Almost 400 usd difference on a playfield set.

What's the newest code and where do I find it?

#1047 4 years ago
Quoted from delt31:

when you shoot the left orbit, should the ball return to the left or right flipper?

Tip of the right on mine.

#1050 4 years ago
Quoted from delt31:

Ok mine too. Thanks

Quoted from BladeFury:

Mine goes to left...

What's your playfeild angle.

#1080 4 years ago

I'd be in for a bowling ball launch button.

#1082 4 years ago
Quoted from JimB:

Here’s my before. Does it qualify and if so which ones on the coil do I switch?[quoted image][quoted image]

Yours looks wrong. Looks like the right wire on the connector goes to the middle coil etc

#1133 4 years ago
Quoted from delt31:

Mark it zero - I could be crazy but after I get that once, the next times I light it up - sometimes the insert stops blinking by itself and I'm back collecting again. Does the game auto collect? Anyone notice this?

It is a timed shot like a hurry up. The timer is on the display.

#1184 4 years ago
Quoted from Rensh:

That’s a pitty and I can’t help it I am afraid . I did get some copyright warnings but it was said it would still be published just with some add’s. As I have published TBL gameplay befor without issues I didn’t think much of it. In my country I still can see it.
[quoted image]

Seems like your car isnt registering every hit.

#1274 3 years ago
Quoted from ChipScott:

I certainly do not want to make any hard or fast recommendations, but at some point either earlier in this thread or in the maintenance thread the issues with the ball from the orbit going straight down the middle was talked about. When I first had the game I noticed the very same thing. I made a very slight adjustment to the metal guide on the right (just to the left of the right ramp). I pulled on the end of that metal guide just a little bit, ever so slightly, making a small adjustment, so that when the ball is coming around from left to right it goes straight to the left flipper. I never had a problem with SDTM since that adjustment. Hope that helps.

I did the opposite I bent mine in a tiny bit now it feeds the end of the right flipper like it was designed.

#1289 3 years ago

Is there anyway to disable the ramp diverter and have a virtual lock.

I love everything about the game bit the occasional ramp reject when lock is lit really suck as the ball drains SDTM. I have the clip mod at the top and I take it better but not 100%.
