Quoted from e4mafia:Holy SHIT how did that happen? Did you somehow have a giant shot multiplier, plus the 2x on play field running with a huge finish shot? That is amazing. Way to go, dude.
I agree , may not be a scoring "flaw" . The X on the inlane can build to <not sure how high> high amounts. If you didnt use it, it may have been up high enough to score way big. Risk / reward , a Lyman staple.

Quoted from gweempose:Can someone please explain to me how exactly you get 2x playfield going.
Hit the targets at the prison, this lights up Tower. Shoot RIOT shot into Tower target and boom! 2x. The more you work the targets before collecting the Tower , the longer the 2x lasts.
Quoted from Hashman:Thats good to know. I always thought it was lighting the X's on the inlanes. What do the X's do then?
X's build up as long as you dont use them. they light (and build to the next X level) at every 2 zombie kills IIRC.
Got some Evil Dead stuff i put in tonight.
Quoted from gweempose:So every time you complete the lanes + kill 2 walkers it increases the lit inlane multiplier? Can this be stacked with 2X playfield? If you have a 4X inlane multiplier and 2X playfield running, is your next shot worth 8X? If so, that's f***ing awesome!
You got it , except Bicycle girl shots do not work with the X. That might be a bug or intended. Earlier in this thread i posted a pic from a game i had. You can see a "next shot is 5x" when the ball rolls over the X switch. If you get a chance to trap the ball the information screens will tell you what the X has built up to.
Quoted from Hazoff:I don't know if any of guys ordered the flasher mod for the WellWalker from PinRef but if you didn't and weren't sure how it would look I'm here to tell you that it is amazing and a must have, I've changed my flasher to blue underneath and ordered the blue for the upper playfield flasher as well and it looks great, really adds some contrast and during frantic play its quite nice. Anyway for 20$ can't go wrong.
One referral credit to Hazoff. SOLD!
Quoted from Bond_Gadget_007:<<You can start Blood Bath on its own or during MB>>
Yikes, thats a bad rule. Way too easy to just go for MB only then everytime. Ugh, rules do matter unless you want another bash Sparky all day fiasco. No offense, I just can't buy a game with just one strategy. Sorry I won't be joining TWD club
Keep in mind that every time you complete a "supply" you have to knock down the correct "unlit" remaining supply target first (while it is flashing) in order to complete that supply set and to advance to Blood Bath. If you think that is too easy during a multiball, you are mistaken. It is possible to complete the drops multiple times without ever advancing the lights to blood bath. Of course the drops also light the modes, so going for drops can be lucrative , but dangerous.

Not looking to "one up" anyone , but i always wanted to post when i hit the Billionaires club too.
Well it just happened in a big way and i was very excited to see the score when Ball 3 ended. Had an extra ball still to play which i tanked on.
congrats apollyon
Quoted from gweempose:Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe I discovered an interesting strategy that applies to the premium/LE. If you are only one shot away from starting a multiball, and the lockdown bar button (walker bomb) is lit, it's almost as if you have a free ball. You can safely shoot whatever you want, and even if you drain, just press the button right away and the multiball will start. It's similar to how you can use the VIP passes in AC/DC.
Also works if you want to start multiball, after you shoot riot mode and start 2x scoring.

<crappy glare> Video taken when it was 50% complete .. i am now at 80%
how many TWD owners are Evil Dead fans?
not shown : Blood Bath multiball music that *should * replace original music . It is downright scary.
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:Evil dead series is my favourite horror series of all time.
this ones for you QG ..and everyone else
https://www.dropbox.com/s/br5pvzzksv6wimt/EViLD01.bin?dl=0
LE\premium only
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:Is it possible to replace ALL the music with evil dead music?
probably .. i prefer to use the existing music , tone it down 50% and add iconic sound bytes to that. Fitting in all of the great sayings is near impossible with the time limit restrictions of each callout. Most are in the range of 1 seconds to 3 seconds.
Notice that the ramps sounds are evil dead sounds .. there are a lot of cool sounds to choose from.
There has to be more than one Evil Dead fan that bought the TWD machine ..
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:YES!!!!!!!!! That is how it is done! Can you post this code? I didn't like how the first one you posted still had TWD theme music playing in it. In this new version the theme music was gone
That is the code posted.
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:What? Your first video had TWD main theme music playing in it when no modes we're going and the above second video didn't. It had evil dead music playing all the time no modes we're going????
First video was sneak peak and was taken long ago <when the seas ran red with blood> .. nice necronomicon

Quoted from Radagast:Hey folks, I just made deposit on a TWD Premium Refinery Edition and I'm beyond pumped to get it home and start playing. I've heard there is a really good alternate sound file for TWD LE/Premium out there...Can anyone point me to where I can get those files? Thanks very much!
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/walking-dead-le-sound-replacement-v-09
Believe it or not there are 4 sound replacement options . this thread should contain links to all of them. I do 2 of them. One being Evil Walking Dead (based on the Evil Dead movie Evil Dead2) Enjoy
BTW the Bicycle Girl Light mod is another must-have. I tried to get Lyman or someone to answer as to why this feature was never provided a light on the Dead Flip stream last night. But no answer.
Quoted from PBINTHESOUTH:OK sorry if I didn't see an answer to this (I did read the rules summary)
but am still confused (even after watching Bowen on PAPA tutorial)
I don't own TWD yet! But am making my mind up over Premium or Pro
But how does the "x shot" work again?
I can see the x inlanes light up and the balls rolls over.. but how do you control
when you want to "use" your xshot up?
I assume once the inlane is lit and you roll over the lit
X any next shot you hit (ramps/targets/bash) use up that X multiplier?
you got it right. every 2nd walker ups the X value ...from 2x to ???? might be unlimited ... change X lane lit with flipper

I have a problem on the ring of the character.
gray sticker torn. is that you have the same problem?
I think it is a bad idea this sticker ...
why not just put the metal?
is what we must completely remove the sticker?

everyone gets that .. they might send you a new sticker , but it will fall off too. some people make alternate stickers that may be more durable. search "well walker pants"

Quoted from NPO:So, I have absolutely zero xp with a Premium or an LE.
Get the LE / premium. You can always trade down later i, suppose. Premium is the full experience. Crossbow has its own Frenzy mode (and should still have crossbow multiball to achieve) , so its significant. The changes in gameplay give you a temporary rest from the masterfully orchestrated madness. Every update has added more value to the premium / le model.

Quoted from bigdaddy07:What are the must have mods for TWD? Right now I'm thinking shaker motor, bicycle girl light, mirror blades, and crossbow mod to start with.

Quoted from SteveNZ:Can someone confirm when the Horde insert should light. I've started Horde a couple of times on the 1.56 game code and have never seen the Horde insert light up. I would have expected it to light (or flash) when all the multikill weapons are lit (or are flashing).
Also I would have expected the Horde insert to be on solid during horde, but not on my game.
I tested the Horde insert through the diagnostics and it works fine.
Just checked a video i have on youtube .. the insert never lights before or after.

Quoted from kpg:Anyone playing this game on 4 ball? It seems very hard, any reason u wouldn't use 4 ball in a home use situation?
you can tweak extra ball settings if you want to be a little more subtle about it
Like others , it is extremely rare to not get some sort of magnet action with the most recent software. The only problem i have seen is a rocket magnet pulse SDTM. 2 prison "hits" seems to happen every once and while.
Quoted from TBatti:So I'm getting the impression that the Barn shot isn't supposed to wrap around and hit the pop bumpers. Is this correct? Mine hit the pops every time.
No , some people think it shouldn't and like the game more when it doesn't.
Personally , i like the original design.

Quoted from Robotronx:So I have only had mine less then a week and I am still learning the rules and tweaking the game.
I was wondering if its normal to have the Riot shot bounce off the target and come right back out the Riot shot?
Mine does it about 50% of the time. I am loving the speed of the game and it only happens when the ball is flying around.
I was thinking about changing the angle of that target and direct it back to the pops.
Has anyone messed with this?
Or maybe I am just over thinking it.
First time i am hearing this as an issue. If it's 50% bouncebacks you should probably do something or attribute it to a lightning fast playfield.
Oh and its double riot shots and a shot that isnt going to the pops. Are you sure you want to do something . lol

Quoted from cooked71:Last night had my first dead feature for the game going and multiball. During the dead feature (riot I think) I dropped at least 2 more banks of drops. No more dead features started, but when I'd finished riot, blood bath was lit. So it had counted the drops towards blood bath, but not started any more dead features.
I'm not 100% sure what the rules are though - was a bit of a blur.
completing drops adds time to the mode (dead feature) so you can collect a lot of millions.

Quoted from jkashani:What would one consider a fair price for a huo only TWD with a pin grafix apron, mirrored pin blades and a few other minor mods. With set up and delivery?
You may want to specify PRO, PREMIUM or LE to get the right idea on prices.
My guess is 4K, 6K 7.5K
If you don't have a delivery/setup guy, try Paul at wannapinball.com
Also consider buying a new premium if they are still producing.

Quoted from Edenecho:A question for prem/le owners:
After the woodbury target is hit, the left orbit flashes and hitting the spinner raises the spinner jackpot. Is it correct that this jackpot is collected at woodbury?
Also, is it a way to increase the spinner value and thereby raising the spinner jackpot faster?
It's definitely collected at Woodbury.
Look for the point total before the Woodbury skill shot graphic. Don't forget to use X on it (the spinner jackpot shot at Woodbury) if you want to collect big.
Not sure of the possibilities of increasing the spinner value.
Added over 8 years ago: EDIT : spinner increases value with each activation. Not sure what else may increase it.

WW multi is switch hit count style. Not sure how many hits , but shoot the spinner or into the pops to light the WW for the jackpot.
Quoted from chuckwurt:the rules read pretty confusing on both of those. I'll let others chime in, as I would like those clarified as well.
Quoted from chuckwurt:How does the super jackpot work? That wiki rulesheet goes into it, but couldn't quite follow. So if you basically avoid hitting the WW long enough and hit enough switches to light all the letters of well, you get the super?
Each jackpot progresses to the next letter . So the last one is super? ..i don't even know .. im too busy trying to advance the drops or a mode usually. Sorry i am not 100% sure.
Quoted from mark9:After you qualify the x multiplier through the lit inlane, the next shot is the big payoff. But what if you hit the slingshots or the pop bumpers next, do minor points scoring shots collect the award if you hit them first?
This README quote gives a little insight. Can't say i fully understand it, but it seems like the pop bumpers and slings may score the X value..
- Shot multiplier, along with X champion HSTD sequence, has been extended
(instead of terminated) when the left prison standup target is hit. The
only follow-up shots allowed at the moment are the center lane and the
center lane standup. This allows the player to clip the left prison
standup target and still get credit for COMBO/MODE/PRISON.M.B./etc.
awards on the center lane at the multiplied value.
Seems like another README will be in the works soon or "next".

Guide to Walker Bombs (posted in another thread)
Knocking down all drops does the following in regards to Walker Bombs:
Food: Gives well walker bomb, only after starting WW multiball countdown Button light: GREEN
Weapons : Lights crossbow when not in horde, When in Horde lights Horde Bomb. Button Light during Horde: RED
*may store horde bombs during "non horde" collecting unless you get a default #of bombs when you start horde (i guess more clearing up is in order)
First Aid : Gives Prison Bomb only after starting clear prison yard. Button Light : BLUE
README:
- Added fire button colors for the walker bombs (prison=blue, horde=red,
well=green).
- Added walker bombs (Premium/LE only). Prison walker bombs can be
applied during prison yard/prison multiball/siege and are earned by
collecting first aid during prison yard/prison multiball/siege. Well
walker bombs can be applied during well/well multiball and are earned
by collecting food during well/well multiball. Horde walker bombs
can be applied during horde and are earned by collecting weapons during
horde. To apply a bomb, hit the fire button.
Haven't reached Siege in a while are prison bombs still active in Siege?
Quoted from chuckwurt:what about if I have at least one prison and one well walker bomb, I have each MB one shot away, drain, hit button. What MB has precedence and starts? Not a huge issue, just curious. And I assume since I have the other bomb still, when I drain out of the first MB, I can just hit the button again to start the other MB?
its either prison has priority or the first one you collected (Cant remember exactly). And yes , it will remember your bomb should you use one of them to start multi , after you drain out .

While the walker bombs make the LE / PREM a bit easier , the WW magnet, Additional drop and BG shot make the pin harder due to the magnet slinging the ball wildly, fast return on the close drop and the faster return via BG shot (as compared to a nice flow ramp back to the flippers.
That and the pin turns quite dark while in Blood Bath.

Quoted from chuckwurt:What's your strat on accomplishing this as the main way to feed the right inlane is from the CDC ramp?
It's the 2nd shot (2 left ramps) after shooting the other shots that completes the mode . So you can get the inlane x then shoot the ramp for the 2nd time.
Quoted from stoptap:Do you have a shaker installed in your WD ?
I'm not really a fan of shakers but this might be a game that suits it. When does it kick in ?
If there is such a thing as "tastefully done" for shaker code, this game has it.
It does every thing from subtle kicks (horde mode alone is worth the shaker price) to manic pop bumper hits. Every time you kill a zombie it kicks. When pop bumper limit is reached every pop bumper is a shake. It's a zombie killing game, it shakes all the time, as it should. It's the slight kicks when you make a major shot that help you feel the accomplishments along with the sounds and light.
Never turned it off of default , so i imagine you can tone it done in the settings, as mentioned.

Quoted from Diesel35:Ive got a similar issue with mine. My crossbow fires intermittently. Sometimes it fires fine. Sometimes the ball barely makes it out of the crossbow and sometimes it takes to presses for the ball to fire. Any ideas on where to start? Thanks.
i had this problem and over time , the ball would always end up sitting properly. check to see if the ball plunger is sticking out after each previous launch. Also, if you are trying to shoot early, there is a bitof variation in when the button is available to be pressed based on the animation running.

Quoted from shoemakesmusic:Skill shot question: I've noticed that after I complete a successful skill shot once or twice, the next time I plunge sometimes the Prison doors will open during mid plunge which totally throws off your plunge and the ball ends up in the pops or draining out of the pops.
So my question is what causes this derailment? Is it the force of the prison doors opening? Or is there some other invisible post that pops out that I never seem to see. I think it's a pretty cool trick. And forces you to be quicker on the draw for future skill shots.
i think this is code. Happens to me all the time. The timing of the doors opening needs to be delayed a little further. But yes, the vibration causes the metal guide to smack the ball enough to impede the progress.
Quoted from dannunz:Does anyone make a sound upgrade for TWD pro?

https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/walking-dead-le-sound-replacement-v-09?tu=cleland
short answer , yes
there are others as well. take your pick
Horde should be the goal of any normal game/ Getting Siege is much tougher , getting LMS is (i dont know , i never got there)
Going for horde requires attention to shooting mode shots , completing drop targets, shooting right ramp , shooting bicycle girl, getting jackpots and supers. Much more fun to go for and the HORDE mode itself is well programmed. Someday HORDE will be escapable.

Quoted from JY64:Just picked up a TWD in a trade over weekend how do I collect weapons
Basically what i said previously. Play Modes (drop targets), Drop targets award multikills (weapon inserts) etc. Go for everything and you will pile up weapons very fast especially during multiball.

Quoted from Pale_Purple:Does add a ball eventually stop in blood bath? Had a good game going and at the end I knocked down the drop targets twice and didn't get another ball. Ended up with five weapons and 440mil had bicycle girl going with two hits already, so close to horde again!
You get to Terminus by completing/playing all the modes/features right? Never been to that either.
Add-a-Ball will kick in twice by knocking down all targets twice) . Complete all target lights for another Add-a-ball (super jackpot) . And believe it or not Add-a-ball for each completion of lights thereafter. Seems unlimited (for super jackpot add-a-balls).
You are right about terminus. Just knock down targets again to qualify it after completing the rest.
Quoted from chuckwurt:Need clarification on the walker bombs. I feel like I don't always get a bomb for completing the drops when first aid or food is lit. Do I have to do something first before getting a bomb for completing the drops while one of those is locked in?
Also can I get multiple bombs? Like can I have two prison bombs from collecting first aid twice?
The corresponding feature has to be started.
Start "Clear Prison Yard" before collecting the First Aid Drop
Start WW by completing the initial WELL letters before collecting food.
You can collect multiples after that. Especially during Blood Bath if both WW and Prison aren't completed yet.
When in Horde hit the weapons to gain horde bombs.

Quoted from NightTrain:Question about the Color DMD. Do you only need the "Add Shield/Standoffs for metal speaker panels" for the newer style backbox??? So all TWD Color DMDs would need this, correct?
That is what i was told on the colordmd thread and i can tell you , you need it. Tried to find in hardware store (not fastenall) and there was nothing even close to what i would need.
Quoted from freakandgeek:Had perfectly working game...went to install Color DMD and never could get it to display properly (pretty sure I did everything right...not my first color DMD).
Gave up on it...put back in old display and NOTHING now.
Anyone have any clues as to what the fuck may be going on here. I am so frustrated. I wish I had never learned about the damn color dmd for TWD.
I tried swapping ribbon cable both directions. All fuses good on machine. Not even sure what to try next.
Anyone have a clue?
Take a picture for the group to help. Confirm that on the old display you connected the power back to its original location as the instructions have you remove the power cable.
Did you get the chroma rom from colordmd (if it is a new display)? I had originally downloaded the colordmd rom which is for older diplays..
Quoted from Eskaybee:Not sure if Lyman fixed the code or not but when I had my TWD prem, if you disabled the xbow it would disable the mode completely so you couldn't play it like a pro.
Quoted from chuckwurt:Unfortunately this isn't possible on a prem. You can only multiply a crossbow shot by the 2x playfield. Can't combine an inlane X with it.
Unless you disable the crossbow then you might be able too. Not sure.
Not sure if it has been mentioned , but it IS possible to combine inlane X with Crossbow by missing the initial crossbow shot and then having it roll over the inlane X during the grace period. Only major shots stop the crossbow shot-making time limit.

Quoted from stoptap:I have shot the Woodbury shot before and not been awarded it although the Extra Ball light remains lit on the shot and I can shoot it in there again to get the Extra Ball. Can't say I have ever noticed it not giving an awarded Extra Ball.
Another possible explanation to not being awarded extra balls (in the form of an extra ball) . Maybe its set to points through a tournament setting.

Quoted from bigdaddy07:Mine is set to factory and after owning it for about a year and a half, I've made Siege and LMS zero times each. I've been temped to lower the standards so they feel possible. I can reach horde and Terminus occasionally, but just can't bring myself to it as it would kill my bragging rights. I have changed my strategy a little recently to focus more on the prison so that maybe I can get a couple of cracks at prison mulitiball in a few games and maybe rack up the required jackpots.
This game is a punch in the nuts in terms of difficulty, but it does have that reply factor that keeps you trying.
A strategy i use to concentrate on getting Siege: never stack bloodbath and well walker .. blood bath either should be started within prison or used to advance to prison multiball ..

Quoted from pinchamp:I know it has to be somewhere but can someone please post the link to the detailed rule set / walkthrough for TWD pro? Why can’t I figure out how to get siege? I have been to horde twice in the same game and killed close to 70 walkers I think.
In 1.60 , if you look at the display , it tells you how many jackpots remaining to get to seige . I think default is 12. Keep starting prison multiball until you get there. It's not easy.
Quoted from Jason_Jehosaphat:*** Pinball-Browser; Cataloging Sounds in TWD ***
Has anyone done any cataloging of the sounds in the v.1.6 code in Pinball-Browser?
If you don't know what I'm talking about, Pinball browser displays "Requests" by number, which correspond to sound samples. There is no description of the sound. For example, the sound for an inserted coin is listed simply as Request 168, 01s770ms. This makes it impossible to scroll through and find the samples that interest you.
It would helpful to know, for example, the request numbers of, say, the main song, etc. I have started cataloging, but there are *many* requests/samples. Has anyone here on this thread who has been using Pinball-Browser done any cataloging he/she can share? I will certainly share mine when I have more, but if there is work done already by another person, I would love to see that rather than slog through this myself.
Thanks!
Unfortunately , i do not have an index , but the options for sorting sound samples can bring all of the longest sounds to the top or bottom (V or ^) . All music will be longer samples.
There is another option which sorts sounds in groups by events. Ex. all of the sound relevant to a mode will appear together.
Quoted from Jason_Jehosaphat:Er, wait. I *may* have it now. Searching by "Scripts" allows me to see certain script numbers that have multiple entries, each with a different alpha ending. Trying one example - "It's gotta be in the brain!" reveals a series of similar/related callouts. Is that what you mean by "groups"?
Thanks.

Yeah , i think scripts is what i meant.
Takes a long time to go through every sound and label them. Probably why nobody did.
Quoted from imagamejunky:Milhouse posted this 2 years ago. Hopefully this helps you.

FYI - when sounds are added in an update, it changes the address of some of the sounds.
So a lot of those sound locations (0x32) will be shifted , which is part of the challenge of re-compiling custom for each software revision.
Pinball browser has the capabilities to redefine the positions once the "shifts" are identified.
Here is the shift id info from 1.43 to 1.56 (which may apply to millhouses document)
ShiftId,1,0x32,0x30
ShiftId,1,0x41,0x40
ShiftId,1,0x98B,0x9DE
ShiftId,1,0xA02,0xA5C
ShiftId,1,0xA6B,0xACC
ShiftId,1,0xA80,0xB58
ShiftId,1,0x1061,0x1140
ShiftId,1,0x158C,0x1695
Bottom line is the document will most likely not be useful for locating exact locations anymore (once a shift is encountered) and certainly will not contain any new sounds that were added. However, the gaps or additional sounds might be revealed in the ShiftId's listed above.
If you are confused , so am i.
Quoted from tp:Does youve been bit have any purpose besides the meager points? I'm hoping I'm missing something here.
Bit value can build quite high, although no one is trying to build it up. with double scoring and an accidental X you could win a match by draining!

Quoted from bridgeman:When the ball is in prison magnet I use a “shimmy” of the game. Not a nudge but a slight shimmy back and forth within the tilt. On my Premium many times the magnet will
Sling ball to side rather than drop straight down the middle when I shimmy. My daughter came up with this.
As for Tunnel you have to really watch the ball when in the pops and learn a feel how it will exit. Once you spend some time on it you will get a good idea where the SDTM exit is and can nudge it.
Or you can sell the game.
you have to play it like your battling zombies for your life!

Quoted from Damien:The most I've had is 54, and I've been to Horde and I'm very close to Terminus. Considering Terminus is pretty tough to reach, and even at that point, you might be at 40-50 zombies, it's insane to think you're still not even halfway.
Part of what keeps a game fresh is having multiple wizard modes that are at several levels of difficulty. I've had TWD since very early production and have never come close to LMS . If you are a newish owner , you should consider not messing with the settings this early on, unless you plan on seeing everything and then selling.
