Quoted from Shenanigander:Oh good! I was hoping it held up for the 2nd shift! (seeing as how I already broke one machine on early shift )

Quoted from MarkInc:Something, something licensing, something, something impossible.
It's only impossible until it's not.

Welcome to Sterns world... people bitch about prices day and night but they pay out the nose for license for all these big themes.

But it's a widebody (and rightly so), so Stern isn't touching it.

Quoted from MarkInc:So, if anyone is going to Pinbrew...
Have you updated your code at all or made any changes to your machine over the years since these last posts? I would love to make my own TNBC pin since no company will touch it and am closely watching P1nhead build theirs.
Code ground to a halt when I was in production discussions for a few years.
I didn't want to put more into it if it was going to have to be all redone for licensing reasons.
I only got back into it for NBXr.
Hopefully have them side by side at the show.

Which show are you talking about?
Also...glad to hear you're getting back into it. Since I am not a programer, if I did end up designing and making my own, I would have to have someone else write the code or adapt it for my needs/wants. I love what you've done with it up to this point and can't wait to see where you take it.

Thanks to all those that came out to play my game and thanks for all the wonderful comments.
Was a pleasure to meet so many Nightmare fans. Glad you all enjoyed it!
Friday we worked a bit on configuring and getting NBXr closer.
We got it running the code and flipping but it still needs a bunch of optos connected and ramp diverters installed.
Steve's done a great job so far and all the positive feedback will definitely help push it to completion.

Expo was a blast. All the homebrew guys were great to meet. Sean and Tanner in pics.
NBX - 450 games played. Great to meet all the Nightmare fans.
Only issues were wear and tear after 1000s of games:
Drop target bank bracket destroyed, luckily I had a replacement.
Horseshoe guide bracket welds gave out and the magnet opto path got blocked - sticky tape to the rescue!
Guide wires near the flippers came loose - Sean (8 Ball Beyond - Best of the show!) was a savior with some crazy glue.

Quoted from leeoneil:Well done !
You machine look very nice !
450 plays in a fews days? Wow !
I know it's not the subject, but is there some information somewhere on the "cerate life" pinball machine next to yours ?
Backglass looks crazy !
Thanks! Was a great show.
The Create Life game was really cool. It was made by a friend of Lin's and brought to Expo by him.
Contact him for the full information: https://pinside.com/pinball/community/pinsiders/linolium/contact
And your Cthulu pin looks amazing too!!
