Question for those of you that have had Pins shipped via DLS Worldwide. Actually looks like Fedex LTL is the shipper, DLS is arranging it.
Showing a status of booked, and ETA of 10/9. Is the ETA of when they're picking it up or when I should see it?
Status ETA
Booked 10/09/2020 10:00 AM
T-minus 24 hours. Says delivery at 10AM tomorrow. Can't wait.
Update I guess. The freight company called and said they will "try" to deliver it tomorrow. If not Monday. C'mon man! I'll drive there and get it
Yes frank is very chatty. We were actually making fun of it yesterday. Frank frank frank frank..
Is there a setting on JJP pins where you can hold the flipper and say the start button to restart a game? Crap hit 3 players and there's only 2 of you etc..
Just a heads up. When lowering the playfield, the vuk by the plunger gets very close. If you don't push the playfield back and lower it, you will crack the rubber off of the end of the plunger. Or pull the plunger and lower it until it's past.
Has anyone figured out what the patches do for you? I don't see much in the manual or I'm not understanding it..
I have noticed that coil gets HOT after a good session of playing. I've had to resolder a couple wires on the left flipper so far and tweak the right plunger diverter.
As for dimples. I do have them. Don't care. 400 games so far. Home use only.
Question for those of you that have the game. When your shaker motor fires is it audible? Or can you just "feel" it? Mine is on stock settings and it's pretty loud when it fires. Took the plastic cover off to see if that was maybe making noise but still pretty loud.
Quoted from Pinball-Obsessed:Last 10 or so games I thought my plunger felt a little different and even sounded different. I was right! Opened the coin door and peeked inside and found the rubber tip of the plunge sitting inside the cabinet.
are these supposed to just pop on and off? Do they pop back in easily? Or is this going to just keep happening?
***mustāve popped off while I was lifting and lowering the playfield trying to fix the record spinner. [quoted image][quoted image]
Happened to me too. Lowering the playfield is tight. It will hit the tip and tear it off. I now pull the plunger when lowering the playfield. They did send me a few new ones after it happened though.
Quoted from Palmer:Frank here...Frank here...Frank here.
LOL yes we have a joke about that.. It doesn't seem to be quite as bad with the latest update. Maybe I just learned to ignore it.
Quoted from Moomert1:L.E. 0139 has arrived. I got some paint drip blemishes on the lockbar. Other than that, all seems fine.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
They must just have a pile of the tags sitting in a box they grab at random. I have 134 and have had it since week 2 of the game being released.
I have noticed the coil on the diverter, the curved one on the ramp to upper Playfield gets almost too hot to touch after playing. Don't think coil fade is an issue with this one.. It does get damn hot though
Quoted from Pinball-Obsessed:Make sure you didnāt sheer the rubber tip off your plunger like I did lifting and reseating the playfield. Thereās barely any room there and it happens easily.
Someone else here on pinside suggested to always pull the plunger back when you lift/drop the playfield in or out to avoid that from happening.[quoted image]
The plunger shooter rod will contact the playfield if you don't pull it. There is a huge ball of wires you need to compress before the playfield will lock in. Just pull it and lower it.. I did the same thing and jjp sent me a few replacements. That I'll probably have in a drawer for the rest of my life now that I know
Anyone with tips on keeping the skill shot from going stdm? I've been tweaking the pass under bumper up, down etc. Not helping. Auto launch is almost always a goner.. Skill shots are 50/50
I work for an ISP, and have 1gig download speed. Update took 20 minutes last night around 6PM CST. download was a minute tops. Maybe JJP was getting pummeled after that but I had no issues.
Updating sterns is a PITA. LOVE the wifi update process.
Pretty sure the 1.17 code is pulled. 404 error in the game trying to find it and 404 when trying to manually download it.
1.19 is an ISO, I formatted with Rufus and it's a bootable ISO now. Do I remove the serialized USB key and use the new one there? Tried in the usb connector behind the coinbox but it doesn't recognize it.
I'll be a guinea pig
Quoted from Lermods:Did you turn the game off and let it boot with the usb drive installed.
Yes plugged into the coinbox USB. Trying a different USB stick now.
Quoted from bigehrl:most likely the ramp diverter. something w a latch locking mechanism to it.
Yup that was it! Also a 3 handed job if anyone runs into that. That was a pita
Had a servo go out on my left spotlight. Ordered a couple replacements but now it's backwards in test. Should go up now goes down etc.. tried flipping the connector bit no dice. Not schooled on servos. What did I do wrong..
New servos are silent compared to the old ones.

I took the scoop screws out, added blue locktite, held it hard left as I was tightening and it's been 100% for hundreds of games now.
Used a long "magnetic!" skinny screwdriver and didn't remove anything on the playfield.
Quoted from jonboy71:NIB machine has had an issue with ball getting stuck on the far left of the Bass ramp almost every time on that lane. Any suggestions to fix this?
Tweak the sides that hold the ball up there. Either side of the pins that fall when the ball gets released.
Quoted from punkin:Thanks but i'm hit and hope. No chance of me doing all that on purpose from memory unless i had a wingman calling shots for me.
This whole game is written only for people who can learn complex rules. It's just not fun for a below average player.
No fun at all, mines gone down the back and will eventually be on the block.
Hear that keefer?

Ha! If you think these rules are too complicated. Avoid GZ.
