Hi all. Joined the club today. Thanks Coz !
Have an issue with the Gimli VUK switch not working properly. I read in a couple of threads that this is common. Some folks suggested using 180-5209-00 rather than the original forked switch. Any reason not to?
Also since I will be ordering some parts, any other things I should have on hand for this title? The game is in great shape, but I wouldn't mind having a few likely to need parts ready to go.
thanks!
Quoted from Damien:Watched a couple streams of LOTR, and now realize that my ring shot is definitely not where it should be.
I can basically never hit it on the fly, and even making the shot from trapping is even difficult.
My previous LOTR was much easier to hit the ring on, so I'm wondering if it has more to do with the angle of the ramp, or the spinner.
Anyone else ever have to make this kind of adjustment, and if so, what worked?
There are a few posts in the thread where folks adjusted the ends up the spinner so that it means forward. This should help the ball to go under it without draining your velocity.
Hi all
I am wondering about the barad-dur eject on my game. It always ejects softly and the ball ends up in the ORC lanes. I saw on youtube that the PAPA game always ejected stronger over to the Orcanth tower. Is that what you all see on your games? The coil is nice and clean and I put in a new sleeve as well.
thanks
Quoted from auspin:Oops have I not studied the game right? I guess the 4th only comes out if you hit the palantir, is that correct?
Add-A-Ball:
During any movie multiball, lighting Palantir during the MB and then collecting
it will usually give Add-A-Ball. This puts one additional ball into play, up
to four (if the player hasn't lost any). This award is pseudo-random - you will
USUALLY get it within the first or second Palantir, but occasionally not.
No ballsaver comes with this extra ball, however, balls drained SDTM *right* as
the new ball is ejected will usually be returned to play as well.
You can also get to 4 with gollum.

Welcome to the club. Your game sounds awesome.
Quoted from auspin:color screen owners with lotr, is there a general consensus the color dmd or the color lcd is better for this game? (as it renders)
Its similar price, will be my first color screen and not sure which way to go.
LCD looks really nice. You can always set it to dots or dotsxl too if you so choose.
