Quoted from zaphX:

I wouldn't assume you're going to have problems. Don't even think about ironing unless you do.

Quoted from highdef:

I'm not trying to come off as woke or PC, but I noticed that the condom, bra, and underwear patches are still accessible in "non-adult mode."
This does not offend me one bit. I do not have kids and I'm very Rated R, however, I will soon have friends with kids finally coming to visit me. This is a game with flashy lights and cool toys, so kids are naturally going to gravitate towards it. Perhaps I am wrong.
It's just that I have a small collection, so it's not like they can walk over and play TMNT or Wonka while the adults throw down on GNR.
The game is obviously not intended for younger players, but it would make me feel more comfortable having the ability to hide sensitive patches like a condom or women's underwear when an 10-year old girl or boy is in my home. I would definitely want to have this as an option if I had a daughter.
It makes me a bit uneasy. I don't want to put my friends in an uncomfortable spot explaining or trying to hide "stuff" to their kid(s). The same applies if I decide to throw a work party sometime in the future. I want to be sensitive to those who are sensitive. Make sense?
Again, I know this is GNR, but I do wish there was a way to hide these particular patches, including the lighter. At the very least, perhaps they could become something else in Family Mode, even if each one is missing a callout. One could argue about guns not being kid-friendly, but there's no getting around it.
How do you parents deal with it? Are the kids kept off-limits?
In all seriousness, how does JJP address this in somewhere like Utah? I imagine their endgame is to sell as many games as possible.

Quoted from LTG:

Contact Yelobird he had a kit at one time.

Contact Nate at JJP.

Quoted from JHPSWE:

I’m sorry to lol!!
But this is so wrong. People are really adding washers to a brand new game.
Return it!

Quoted from jimwe5t:

We have a great charitable community. But JJP is a company, not a charity. There is no reason ever for us as a consumer to have to pay to fix our machines under reasonable warranty claim. It is just crazy to think some are suggesting we pay even at wholesale cost, for replacement PFs. That is like a new car manufacturer telling us after only driving a couple hundred miles, sorry the paint is chipping, peeling, cracking all over the place, but we will let you pay cost to have it repainted. No one, absolutely no one would agree to that scenario. Do we just roll over and say, just play pinball? That’s exactly what they want us to do, the cowards way. There are a bunch that are affected now, but it is only a matter of time when a wider number are affected. These PFs are ticking time bombs, as we have years of JJP PF known issues as examples to draw from. Voting with our dollars is the only thing JJP will understand. Stop buying till this problem is really fixed, not just a band-aide.

Quoted from punkin:

In the Haggis Fathom thread we are talking about aussie snack foods.

Quoted from darkryder:

My distributor notified me that my GNR LE is shipping this week, ordered on December 15th. Game is paid in full, can't wait to receive this masterpiece and bolt on all of the Lior mods I've been stockpiling. Hoping for no issues, but either way, I plan to address all trouble areas before playing a single ball. It's been a long time since I had a GNR (Data East) in the lineup and I have a feeling this JJP is going to blow me away. I'm ready for the @#%*&% jungle baby!

Quoted from zaphX:

I'd rather leave the rubbers off and preserve the original gameplay intent.

Quoted from fooflighter:

Here's what matters at the end of the day ...I probably have spent about 15+ hours just on playfield repair adding washers, ironing, tweaking, repairing...
This game represents the most labor I've ever had to put in on a NIB pin...not just the playfield. I definitely cannot at this point, recommend a JJP pin for a first time NIB user or someone new to the hobby...it is far too labor intensive and really requires a lot of maintenance and fabrication in a lot of places, and a ton of creative thinking and patience.
Repairs or replacements consisted of (I'm probably leaving things out):
spotlights, lockdown bars, mylar on sticks, cliffy protection, scoop hoods, fans for flipper fade (say that 3 times fast), rubbers, rail adjustments, rattling in backglass, sunken disk, magnet too high, fences sticking, machine not booting up, vinyl bubbling on decals, flipper alignment, shooter lane fence lower, this doesn't include all my own mods for fun...
DESPITE ALL OF THAT...this is simply a must have pin in my collection and is never leaving unless it decides to.
I totally can understand how this pin is not for everyone. It is not a plug and play pin solution in most cases. Maybe you are lucky and haven't had to tweak a thing.
Going forward, JJP really needs to step it up in pre release wear game testing...a bunch of these issues probably could have been worked out before distribution if someone from QC put 1000 games on a cross section of games.
This picture is all that matters now. It shoots like butter, is completely dialed in, despite the washers...here is my player view poistion. I Love this game.[quoted image]

Quoted from Mattyk:

Say you keep multi ball going the entire song. You never get a cash out opportunity. The songs all vary in length but on full completion you should get the jackpot. The applause jackpot feels like it should be a separate award. I mean it’s a bit frustrating that you can play excellent and then miss out on a huge score because you fail to hit one shot in the last 10 seconds. Just my opinion. It still keeps the risk reward feature in place, just provides a little more satisfaction

Quoted from Eskaybee:

Exactly this. I fixed my DP playfield thanks to that owners thread and haven’t had a care in the world since, play the snot out of my DP, and it’s been well over a year. I’m hoping the same comes to fruition with GNR. I don’t have time to flip flop between multiple threads, I tend to just follow owner threads of the games I own on a daily basis. this is the owners thread; let’s discus, adapt, and overcome so we can enjoy the game enough to discuss its gameplay.

Quoted from zaphX:

That's the thing. The issue and solutions have been discussed to death already.
I am 100% in favor of identifying issues and sharing fix info. But there also comes a point where we're just piling on and beating a dead horse.

Quoted from VALIS666:

Don't forget pintips.net as well. Handy site, and nice and bareboned for quick searching/browsing, but not a lot of people know about it.

Quoted from deejaypee:

Exactly how I feel! I’ve been following this thread and taking notes since I ordered in January. I don’t think a lot of people have the time or inclination to do the same, so I get it when I read questions that have been answered ten times, and I ain’t mad. We’re gonna see a lot of repetition. I’ve stayed mostly off since I don’t have mine yet and can’t really contribute anything, but I’m supposed to be getting mine soon and I’ll be darn happy to try to be more helpful. I don’t mind people posting about almost anything game related.
I totally get how annoying it is to read playfield concerns over and over when you’ve had your game for a while and you want to talk strategy, lost jackpots, and parse out rules more… but hey, we’re all at different stages of the process. Soon I hope to have some ability to take all the strategy posts and make some sense of what to do… but dangit, I haven’t been taking notes on that stuff!

Quoted from deejaypee:

I hope sooner than you think Xelz! I don’t know how many jjp allocates themselves in the schedule or how long the queue was. But the games seem to be coming faster and more furiously here lately…

Quoted from romulusx:

This should be fun!!![quoted image]

Quoted from Mattyk:

I thought that I read that someone removed the plastic washer from a trouble area and the pooling was gone.
Has anyone else checked their playfield condition by removing a clear washer?

Quoted from fooflighter:

I ironed all my pooling prior to putting down clear PETG. I haven't touched them since I put them down (something about not fixing what's not broken) but they look the same from above coming up on 1000 plays since installing them. No new damage, no edge pooling, no pressure squeezing into the playfield...they look perfect. Even the PETG's that i scored or cut to fit haven't fractured, cracked or anything. Love that material.
My son came home from college for the past week and we've had a blast playing it. He really loved it and thought it looked amazing. I showed him my fixes and he thought it came from the factory that way. I don't even see them anymore to be honest. I know it sucks but for those who already have the game or are getting it who either have issues or are worried...but you can get after it the minute you notice some shiny pooling if you choose to wait and see if your's is affected...at this point you can arrest further issue by being immediately proactive.
These were both just taken with 1000 plays since install...as well as the rest of the playfield
[quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from MacJedi:

Hey guys
I got the call from JJP that my machine is very close to shipping. I am really torn about going ahead with the purchase. I have been super excited about the game, and the one-of-a-kind gameplay experience it offers. And it combines our families passion for live music with pinball. But it is heartbreaking to see all of the playfield issues and other quality issues with the game. Any word on what these new post kits are that JJP is shipping out? I have hopes that can help keep the playfield issues at bay. So ultimately, the tough question is, is the game really worth it given all of the challenges to keep the game going? Are there a lot of GNR owners that are happy with the game? I know I see some here on the forum, but they seem to be drowned out by so many folks having problems with the game.
Thanks,
MacJedi

Quoted from CaptainNavidad:

Not helpless, no. It's just that I have this absurd notion that when I drop 10k for an elaborate toy, I'm going to be able to play the game instead of shutting it down for an extended period of time to iron a pooled playfield and install additional washers. Out-of-the-box adjustments are one thing, but I'm not eager to invest time in a machine to address aesthetic issues on a brand new game.

Quoted from megalo17:

Anyone know what would cause the keyboard sensors to pickup upon trough eject? That’s the only time I can tell that they misfire, every game. I’ve tried reseating connectors, and calibrating, to no avail. I’ve searched this topic, but haven’t seen this particular issue with the sensors.

Quoted from fooflighter:

Just got it today actually...Sorry no photos but I broke my phone camera lens yesterday
It was 3 posts, including nuts and black washers...I'm assuming they are for the 2 posts near the AXL lanes and the one by the AMP GNR Lanes...I think they may be longer. There were also black washers with notches in them for the metal fence proximity to the inlane post.
The other part of the kit was repacement posts and clear washers for the slings. Mine already came installed with and have never been an issue in that area.
So it seems like an interim type kit as the new ones going out already have all the fixes. I may take the posts out and replace them but I've got everything else already covered.

Quoted from Sako-TRG:

A big rolled up rug cannot be cheap to ship to UK
All good stuff is always overseas....

Quoted from Vespula:

There's nothing to indicate that they have stopped adding washers and posts improvements. Latest shipments have shown these modification. What you may be referring to is a post of one request made to support for a may build that did not have these changes and they replied to this person due to supply chain issues they can't send parts and go source from Marco or pinball life.
As for the limited warranty, the may GNR manual is very limited compared to nov2020 version last year.

Quoted from liorillusion:

Resin is much much more durable than 3D printed ABS or PLA. we are not doing resin print that get damage very easy and doesn't suitable for production. we are doing CASTING with silicone molds ONLY! and also the quality is 1000 times better than 3d printed parts. its all made by hand! if it will brake also during installation or after long time just contact me and you will get new one with no charge at all. we stand behind our products
[quoted image]

Did you check it in person? There is over 200 kinds of resins. We are using the best resin by smooth on that is flexible and also can get big impacts. same for the paints. its only because sometimes the air is trapped in the tiny spots also if we are using vacuum or pressure chambers. but as i said if it broke you will get new one

Quoted from rrosenhouse:

I bought all the mods, and I'm still waiting to receive my machine.

Quoted from Vespula:

I ordered direct 12/30/20 and have been told by JJP to expect a fall ship date. If yours was October 8 direct, and flip out just gave one of their customers their Le from October 15 order then they are shipping slower than I thought. I'm sure I remember some posts on here from people ordering direct at the end of October and getting theirs. I also thought there was some very few first of November direct orders being received. So just makes no sense to me. I thought for sure they'd be into November by now. October 8th is very disappointing.
Another comment is that last I saw some recent unboxing that they were shipping in the 1200s or 1300s referencing the license plates.... The flipnout le just received was 1729 from mid October .... Draw your own conclusions there. My conclusion is that there is a lot of pins being shipped out and their owners are just not on pinside.

As you may have noticed or determined , I think JJP direct is always slower because you're in one big honking line.... I chose to go direct because I didn't know I even had a distributor model at the time I ordered and I thought going direct to the source was going to be faster. Apparently it's slower and just puts more money in JJP's pocket because they don't have to pay a distributor. Doesn't help me a bit. Not to mention I've got to deal with the installation and pick up all by myself with no help. If I could switch to a distributor I would do it in a heartbeat.
Going through a distributor seems faster is most all cases and extremely fast in tdiddy case. His order was like Amazon fast. That's crazy. I've seen other distributors deliver in few months too. I have a personal opinion that the larger the distributor The more orders, the slower it will be because they only are allotted so many. But there is not consistent data to support this just my feeling. So not only would I go with a distributor if I could do it again, but I would go with a small distributor, maybe smallest possible and preferably with less than three orders pending.
Because everything is so inconsistent and data from the posts here and who they order from and at what time they ship I feel like there's a lot of back scratching going on, but maybe that's the impatient conspiracy theorist in me.

Quoted from ThePinballFuries:

The sound quality on the this machine is extremely bad for a music pin. I've seen posts about adding pinwoofers and powered subs with alligator clips, but has anyone tried to add a bluetooth soundbar and sub?

Quoted from deejaypee:

So on the sound front, I have a pretty nice home stereo that happens to be in the same space as where the GNR is going when it arrives next week, and I’ve been on the fence about pinwoofer. Not because I don’t think it would be great, but because I don’t have money to spend thoughtlessly. I figured I’d see how it sounds out the box, then see about hooking it up through the stereo. It seems silly but it’s already right there and no harm in trying it out?
Is there an easy audio line-out in the game, or would I need to splice some wires, or what? If you think I’m crazy, no need to post, I’m aware, and Axl sings it to me every time I put on my GNR Lies (the superior version of that song all day every day).

Quoted from PanzerFreak:

For Pinwoofer owners did you install the anti rattle tape on your Invisiglass? Does it matter what side of the glass it goes on? I'm not sure if the anti rattle tape adhesive would cause any damage to the Invisiglass glass.

Quoted from Silkenone:

I am closer to your point of view than others Zaph, loving the game.
I was just hoping to do the iron thing before putting a petg or Cliffy on, but thwarted by a stuck washer.
(It’s the inlane amp/GnR post - suspect petg on top of that washer will increase impacts to the post but…I dunno!)
And I prob would order a back-up pf, if there was any indication they were any different…

Quoted from Kkoss24:

Looks like I’m going to a expo early on saturday

Quoted from PinMonk:

Yes, but I want to gather temp data of the magnet before I jump into that so I have a baseline. The diverter coil also gets VERY hot, well over 200F.

Quoted from chet218:

Interested in ordering a LE. Anyone know if the playfield issues have been fixed as of late?
Thanks

Quoted from Vespula:

Wtf. Let's put these disty pins with no orders on hold at JJP and blow through the back log of direct orders for a while, um-kay?

Quoted from punkin:

Next time? Why would you put yourself through this playfield issue again?
There'll be no next time for me and JJP.

Quoted from wackenhut:

Is it that worth it to buy with all these new titles coming out? Have not played one yet. I can't imagine people would want the machine if it is pooling and chipping. Sucks

Quoted from punkin:

What do you suppose would happen if a distributor ordered 15 LE's back in November on spec?
Perhaps they'd get them now, and perhaps they'd have a couple that aren't presold and are available for immediate delivery?
Not everything is a conspiracy.

Quoted from DaddyManD:

Had my GNR about a month now and loving it! Had some of the same issues folks have posted about in forum or brief key posts but wanted to add a few photos and all in one place as I just did all of these fixes and they all immensely helped! Thanks team!
Right flipper alignment issue: as some others reported, my right flipper was tilted slightly up from factory and it felt hard to hit left ramp. To adjust, simply loosen the hex nut with a wrench or hex driver in small increments while holding the flipper. Once the flipper moves, adjust it to the preferred angle and hold it in place while you retighten. Be sure the tighten as much as possible. Before "B" and after "A" pics included as well as a photo with hex nut circled.
Center scoop SDTM issue: another user glpinball kindly posted his fix of adding a washer to the left screw holding the scoop down. This worked for me too! Luckily both left and right scoop screws can be accessed with a long Philips head from top of playfield carefully through guitar head. Magnetized screwdriver or magnetic wand may help with screws. Pic of screw to add washer under is circled.
Center scoop protector not level to playfield: was having issues with side shot never going into scoop. See in photo from factory the scoop protector was arched up on both sides, causing the issue. Used a piece of felt for protection and just pressed gently down with needlenose pliers. Don't go too hard so you don't dig into playfield.
Right ramp ball jam between left drumstick and gate: as another user PeterG posted, loosen the 2 screws on the gate, slide gate back a bit ensuring still in line with ramp exit. Also add a washer or 2 per glpinball under the back left post of right ramp (circled pic). This should end ball jam issue.

Quoted from deejaypee:

Mine don’t hit the slings, but counter clockwise orbit is close to down the middle. I can always save it, it hits around 3/4 of the left flipper, but it’s an ugly chaos right after and I should surely try to reign that in a bit. Shooting multiple orbits does sound fun.

Quoted from Vespula:

Bingo! .. She wants to finalize because it shipping soon!!! That's a good sign for those with a direct order. Mine was placed 12/30/20.

Exactly why all the "fix" posts were such a waste of time. It is what it is, play it and have fun. Get the playfield offer. Swap it when it's time to sell, or sell the backup with the game. Life is short.

Quoted from Dobler:

Sweet. Congrats! I’ve got a box of parts as well and waiting for mine to come in. I think it’s close so I’m hoping it will arrive before Thanksgiving (fingers crossed). I’m just a bit south of you in Bothell, WA. dobler on Scorbit.

Quoted from Lounge:

Went to install my cliffy scoop protector and found this ….
[quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from trailrider:

Interesting that you would say those blue bumpers are a "wear item". It seems to me they one of the many not very well thought out pieces of this game. Think of the Addams Family "chair" with the posts on either side, I have never in 20 years had to replace them.

Quoted from Vespula:

I thought the same thing. If someone could post up all the cheat settings to change make it easier on scorbit that would be helpful.
Or maybe JJP can code in with the scorebit integration so if you're actually responding to a challenge that uses default settings so everyone's on the same level play field ... Then again maybe it just doesn't matter

Quoted from arzoo:

While we're on the subject of the washers, this is interesting. While swapping out the clear washers that came with the pin on the slings, I noticed they are not flat on the bottom. Instead, they have a raised ring in the center and outer edge. Wonder if this was by design? I can't see any advantage and I would think they might make indentations (although I didn't see any).
As an FYI, I've been putting a clear PETG washer on pretty much every post on the pin (although the black ones really do look fine) and in only one case was there any pooling, and that post was not tightened down from the factory, so it was leaning slightly and digging in to the pf from the rubber pulling.[quoted image]

Quoted from PinMonk:

It's because that black washer is cut from a tube and the PETG ring is cut from a flat sheet. It's a manufacture artifact from the process.

Quoted from jsa:

Folks just know we're hearing you loud and clear about challenges. Ironically they've been around for over a year but we really do need to roll out more data and instructions on using them! We're taking in all this feedback and you will start seeing changes soon.

Quoted from Vespula:

Sorry to be a downer guys...
I'll work on this over the weekend.
I've had my 2 weeks of fun playingb and modding it.. now it's time to get on it.. it, being the not as fun "bulletproofing" stuff.

Quoted from adrock:

Having a problem with SDTM drains from the left guitar lock. It started after I installed the scoop Cliffy. Not sure why, because all connections are tight and both Playfields are level. I did record the ball in slow-mo, and it is careening off the left catwalk as others have noticed. Not sure why it wouldn’t do it before, I can’t recall a single SDTM during prior to the Cliffy install. I did increase the lock release duration to maximum which helped (I think the coil was releasing too soon and shooting up against the ball as it was being released which made it worse) But I still get one in five or so SDTM. Any ideas? I know some people have used bumpers to cushion the catwalk impact but I feel like that would be a last resort, and I’m not sure why it worked fine before the Cliffy install without a bumper being needed.
Tried to link slow mo video prior to adjusting the coil:

Quoted from etr104:

So I haven't seen too many people in this thread complaining about how long it's taking to get their game. In fact I haven't seen much in the way of 'unboxing' type posts in the past month or so. Does this mean that JJP is finally pretty much all caught up in terms of manufacturing? I got my game in September after a 10 month wait, but I'm curious how they are doing for everyone now?

Quoted from abelelectronics:

Anyone interested in a fresh game off the line PM me. I have some coming next week from JJP. I can drop ship one right from the factory.

Quoted from Hayfarmer:

My right flipper has been mushy feeling since day 1, not bad but not strong. I put stiffer springs on both today and huge difference. Very snappy now, had to turn back down to factory settings

Quoted from f3honda4me:

So orders from April/May are getting theirs now, right? Trying to figure out current wait time if I order anLE now lol!

Quoted from Jon9508:

How is everyone handling the chip playfield issues? I have a chance to get a used one but of course there is a chip behind a metal post. Are we filling them in with something? Covering with washers? Thanks for the input. Just trying to get a game plan. At 10.5 not sure if i should even mess with it.

Quoted from Vespula:

Awesome ! just make sure you've worked all the bubbles (if any) out to the edges now. It dries over the next few days and there's no getting a bubble out at that point.
Once it dries it tightens up and really flattens out and looks even better!
P.s. don't forget to put your protectors on EVERYTIME you lift the playfield. I had to stop myself a couple times until it's a habit!

Quoted from hiker2099:

New owner today, got a new Jan build GnRLE .. Absolutely love this game. However, a few issues I need advice on:
1. The bottom piece of wood of the head cabinet is cracked on the bottom. Should I return or try and fix?
2. Glass has three big black rubs. From rubbing the metal on playfield is my guess. I assume they will send me a new one.
3. The spring on the shooter rod is too weak. It won’t launch a ball. I had another spring from a different game which I had to adjust to get just right.
I plan on contacting JJP on Monday. I am looking for advice on each issue. Pics attached.

Quoted from usafstars:

I just got mine two days ago, had the same issue with scuffs in the glass. Left wire ramp and wire on apron rubbed the coating off the glass. JJP had me take pictures and are now sending me a new sheet. Sorry to see the damage to your back box, hope they do you right in fixing that. Best of luck.

Quoted from deejaypee:

Sorry everyone, not trying to turn this thread into a commercial, but just to answer a couple of questions I’ve gotten a bunch of times already, depending on how many preorders there are (the bigger the parts orders, the more I can save), the price for the Hyperlytes will be around $250-280, and USPS priority mail within the US will be around 15-25 bucks.
Here is the website with the high end of the cost on it (inventory is 0 so you can’t order them anyway) and a link to the preorder form, which will help me greatly in my parts orders! I will update anyone who signs up in a week or two and make sure you’re down! There’s no deposit or anything binding to be on the list, but please be reasonably sure you’d like a set so I don’t end up with a garage full of backups for my own GNR

Quoted from Vespula:

There are two pieces of adhesive one at the top and one at the bottom on each rail.. so you could pop them off. I did it once already when I installed them upside down. Lol.
It's just a 3M adhesive so while they stay on there very well they're not permanent .. And of course the adhesive is replaceable.

Quoted from mmuglia:

I haven't liked the flippers on my GnR since I bought it December. They seemed slow to return compared my other games, and they bounced a little on return. I decided to give the Stern return spring a try. They are the same exact length and diameter, they're just a slightly stiffer spring. It's a night and day difference, especially with all the multiballs this game throws at you. Your flippers settle back to the rested position quicker, which allows you to be ready for the next ball quicker. No adjustments were needed to coil strength because I didn't notice any loss in power with the stiffer springs. They were only needed on the main and the upper right flippers. It's not needed for the upper playfield.
At $0.62 each, it's a great upgrade! These are the springs I bought if you want to give it a try.
