Thanks for the Scorbit challenges sent my way,
Very cool.
Unfortunately I am away for work again.
So, no snub or disrespect champions.

Jay and Scorbit team, I realise you have a lot going on to fine tune the app, another consideration for down the track would be an away mode.

In saying this I hope our buddy Chaka is well and will come back soon.

as i say many time no need this, only adjust the sentitivity of your pop bumper more !

Many posts on this earlier in the thread. A felt furniture leg protector cut in half and stuck half on the bumper skirt and half on the adjacent playfield has resulted in zero hangups for me since February

Can you please check your Account Menu > Settings > App Version, and let me know the version and build? Also what version of Android are you running?

One thing to try: Try a light, quick tap on the Player 1 button. If you tap too long, it thinks it's a long press which de-selects it.

So far so good! As long as it works and looks pretty decent, I’m gonna play it. What am I, a museum?!

I'm with you. World needs more, imo.

Im in the group!...once it arrives. Lol
Hopefully in a few months.

Does anybody know actually what comes up if you turn on adult content, adult videos?
I switched it on and played a few games and few different songs and yeah I see some skeletons going at it but that's it...

Thx for the heads up, my sept build has a tiny wrinkle, gonna fix this afternoon ..

Well, for one, it gives you access to the songs with F-bombs that are inaccessible if that's off.

It's not going to turn the game into a porn or anything, but in addition to the swearing in the songs, there are a whole bunch of callouts that would be offensive to the easily offended and probably not appropriate for children.

The funniest one I ever heard, and i actually only heard it one time in the 600+ games I've played. I had set a new high score and and Duff calls out "yeah! Lets go get drunk and do some cocaine!" or something along those lines. To me it was a hilarious contrast to the early 90s when every single pinball machine had to display the "Winners Don't Use Drugs" banner.

But yeah Duff and Melissa say a lot of non-PC things when the adult settings are turned on.

Yeah but I was mainly talking about the adult video setting.

There's a setting for global adult content yes/no...
Then under that there is 3 detail settings where you can customize the adult content, and one of them is songs, another one is call outs and then the third one is video. So you could turn on the 5 songs without turning on the call outs or the video.

I got the call outs is just language, but it was the video setting that I was most curious about....

Have any of you guys ever hooked your GNR up to a smart plug just to monitor power usage? I did today for the first time. So when sitting idle, the game consumes about 90-100watts. During a game, it uses about 175-200 watts. But the most jarring is whenever the Axl magnet engages, it shoots up to 500+ watts. It's only a brief spike, but wow. Is that normal for pinball magnets?

Another great one I heard my buddy get on his 2nd tilt that ended his game: “I hope you f_ck better than you play.” I thought that was awesome.

I think there is video of axle giving the middle finger and some women grinding on a pole.

I had a crap game and slash said you don't have to go home, but you gotta get the f##ck outta here. Great work on the callouts, I laugh every time I play

There are a few videos that feature Slash wearing a shirt that says F*** in some form or another. Guessing it's either blurred out or just missing in family mode.

Right there too. Noticed it last night too. Same post.

Mmm, easy way to check the magnet is working
I don't seem to see any magnet action after the last code update
I miss it.

Biggest problem is they put on a ring at least a1/2" too small. I went up to 1/2 bigger ,a washer and longer post.

Mine works, both in 1.25 and beta20 so it's not the code.

On another note, along the same lines, I noticed that it seems like there are some magnetic forces right between the lower flippers as well as around the record... The ball can do some squirrelly stuff sometimes that only seems to make sense if there's fluctuating magnetic fields under there... Are there other magnetics under the playfield?

And….me too. Noticed it today. I just took that all apart a few days ago to replace the sling rubber that broke off (during a good ball). Could have addressed it then. Pita.

Time for a picture break. Look who stopped by to jam in my Backstage ....

Key post on this...

Most likely thing that happened is the thermal switch wrapped into the coil died. If you unwrap the tape and do a continuity test on it (don't touch the casing, it's electrically active and could mar the reading) you can tell if it's dead. It should have continuity when the machine is off and cold.

No. What I think you're seeing is english on the ball. It gets some crazy english on it sometimes on the lower pf. I've had it appear to levitate on the airball shield on the left and it's just because it was spinning so fast it paused in the air pressing against the shield for a second or two. Looked really cool whenever it happened.

Buddy printed these for me.

Very cool.. is that glow in the dark plastic?
Can he make plastic plate for the top with buttons and then paint gold, and add trim around that whole speaker grill to make it look like a little Marshall amp ? That would be sweet.

Not glow, but the tanks he made for godzilla are painted with fluorescent, looks cool under the black light

Neat!

Agreed. This game spins balls like nothing I’ve seen before. Funny thing is that I’ve subconsciously registered what kinds of spins are coming from certain situations now. I’ll swing a flipper at a moment that there’s no business to flip and it’s perfect. I’ve even found myself trapping according to spin and only realize that I was playing the spin without thinking about it. Kind of cool might be a cyborg.

Or maybe the simulation code for your instance just made an algorithm adjustment.

I forget what song , but the other night I saw boobs in the crowd .

Now I think about it , it was a hot night and I had my top off

Ok I got it sorted , I was pressing the top player one , instead of the bottom player one , now it says " you " and the spot is claimed .

Edit - if I do the QR code , I don't have to press player one for every game .

While I've been playing the game , I did notice the hood on the scoop did wobble .
I took the glass off and it was unbelievably loose , I tightened it back up with a Phillips head and it's all great now , the ball is hitting Just a Smidge above the middle of the left flipper .
In conclusion , the washers help , but your scoop is probably loose to begin with .

Outrageous. I haven’t touched it.

If anyone is still looking

For some reason my left guitar lock isn’t properly releasing balls during multiballs. The optos are properly registering and the coils fits fine in testing mode, but during gameplay I just get the continuous drum roll/light effects like the gate is about to drop but never does. Any thoughts?!

The only thing I’ve done around that area recently was add the two washers under the scoop eject, but I can’t see why these would be related. I did have to bend the guitars guide a bit last week because one of the optos wasn’t properly registering so wondering if I may just need to tweak that some more? Again, not sure why that’s help tho since the optos are working in test mode.

Who makes the decals for GnR? It is also just as flawed as the playfields, and I know Mirco does decals too. Is Mirco just a shit show?

Does anyone else make radcals. Would love to replace my GnR LE decals with radcals as JJP can’t get their shit right with decals.

Nope decals are done nicely.....radcals on my CE were badass, but I doubt u can purchase....I don't think they make radcals for the LE?

A lot of machines have defective decals both LE and SE. Bought new ones from JJP and they were defective before installing and sent those back as well. Went to my distributor and he said the floor model is fine. Then I pointed out the defects on the floor model GnR and he was shocked. Seems like the decals are delaminating. If Mirco does make the decals they should just close up shop or ppl should just boycott JJP until they drop their asses. Defective decals and playfields is unacceptable.

Boycott is what i've done. Even sold the Hobbit out of spite.

I buy a pinball machine every month or so, but i'll never buy another JJP machine. Ever.

MY cabinet decals where fine out of the box,5 months later the front one has bubbles ripples. Total shit . great game SHIT quality

Check the c-clip and washer that holds the spring in place on the up post. Mine was all jacked up - easy fix all I did was reassemble it and haven’t had a problem since.

Can someone post a pic of their left ramp gate/switch. Mine came off and I can’t seem to see how the switch and gate are tied back in together.

Never mind. I didn’t have the gate pushed all the way through on the left. All good.
