Anyone have an issue with the game losing ball count on 3.0? Played a few games on the last code before upgrading and it was fine. Had a 2nd ball in the shooter lane twice in 4-5 games (no auto plunge). Had 3 balls in Power Chord during a song and the game lost one. Couldn't finish the song.. basically timed out and gave the balls back for end of song drain
Nothing obviously is the switch test

You check your trough connectors?
Quoted from konghusker:You check your trough connectors?
You'll also want to clean the guitar lock sensors (just on the upper playfield surface). Once they get dirty, it's hard to see but they cause problems with ball detection.
Quoted from Vespula:CE new in the box. Got New code. Just need new caps. Wow.

It’s tempting and I already have an LE. 
Quoted from arzoo:First game after code update, wtf? I mean, I did crush the mode but still, this can't be right?
[quoted image]
It is. The modes are now really fun and worth playing, eh?
But seriously, you should have seen it in the earlier beta. I crushed the mode too and my score was 1.2 billion in b43... they adjusted it and Now it's more balanced.

Quoted from Pizza-Bob:Any new songs on the code update?
No
Quoted from blkspiderman:Anyone mess around with the equalizer after 3.0 upgrade for sub and stock speakers? THANKS!
I did go in and flatten my curve, but that's it.
I have pinwoofer and Polk.

Good to know, thanks! Just that now it seems like the modes are worth more than than songs

This is a good point.
Canterbury
Quoted from Vespula:This is a good point.
I’ve always felt it should progress that way. You play songs to qualify an album, after all.
Quoted from Shredso:I want to shut off the machine yelling at you when you walk by. Is it "show attract mode camera message"?
Setting->Audio->Volume&Mixing->Attract Mode Motion Sounds defaults to ON, set it to OFF

Quoted from thechakapakuni2:It’s tempting and I already have an LE.
I know that feeling but my choice for the LE remains was well taken because of the art package and of course this LE is more special to me than any CE so its easy for me to stick with my LE.
Quoted from replacement:looking at the scores posted here...
Slash told me just the other day: "Here's the ball back. Turn down the suck."

No way - did they sneak new call outs in with the new code??
I have NEVER ever heard that.

He didn’t say it was from the pin.
Perhaps slash was in the room with him.

Yeah, Like Steve Ritchie says "Play Better!"

Welcome to the club. You will also find this thread very active and useful. Bunch of nice people on here.
Quoted from robnotto:I am having a bit of a issue on my GNR. It randomly is double feeding balls. I have replaced the balls , and did a trough test. Thanks in advance for some direction.
Open up the coin door, and look for the board that has the trough optos. Unplug and re seat all connections. It fixed the same problem for me. Apparently the larger plug wasn't seated well. I posted a pic here a while back

Many thanks.

Props to you man. Trifecta. You couldn't have timed entry into GNFR any better. Clutch.
Quoted from DKong:How good has this game been from inception to now, it' been a wild ride, and just keeps getting better
No cap.
Just like the fuckin' game, eh! 
Quoted from Vespula:No cap.

And there is more code coming by the end of June !
Quoted from Pizza-Bob:Hopefully they will add Knocking on heaven’s door in the June code update.
You wish I wish but alas No!
Quoted from romulusx:And there is more code coming by the end of June !
Wow! Did JJP announce this officially?
So, coma multiball needs a scoring adjustment. I rarely complete the coma ball save and therefore rarely see coma multiball. But, I did it tonight. During coma multiball, the goal seemed to be to hit the ramps, which I did about 5x before a double drain. My score for coma multiball was about 32,000 
Way out of line with the recent adjustments

Are you on the beta group? If so, I'd recommend you mention this.
If not, I'll share your insights (if you are ok with that).
Quoted from romulusx:And there is more code coming by the end of June !
There is? I took their original announcement to mean that the 3.0 version of the code would come out no later than June 30th. But instead, they beat that mark by 7 weeks or so

That's how I understood it as well but I would love to be wrong.

Episode 14 of Quick Flips Bill Grupp talks about GnR code.It sounded like he was saying there would be two more betas by the end of June.Anyone hear this?

While it would be nice if this was true, I suspect Bill was predicting what would lead up to the 3.0 release. As it turns out, it was ahead of schedule.
We got 3.0. I believe the only other GNR betas or releases we’ll see are bug fixes, like the forthcoming 3.01.
But I have no specific knowledge here.

For this release, there may be some more score balancing where needed, but no new features according to the JJP Team.
Quoted from fooflighter:[quoted image]
Thanks for clarification.
installed 3.0 last night as mentioned before I got the upgraded I/O board installed. Agree with other it completely transformed the game. I am running the modified settings that have been posted here. All adds up to huge improvement. Now the negative, I paid full price for my machine and it was made in 2021 waited all this time for the code update and $400.00 for the board. So I am not excited to buy JJP in the future. Not saying never but.....
Lastly even with all the improvements, I still suck at pinball.
Quoted from insight75:Getting an LED/PFC board communication failure. Where is this board?
It's the board hanging down from the playfield with all of the blue cables leading to it. That error usually means a USB connection issue - either there at the board, or in the backbox where the other end of the cable plugs in to the motherboard.
