Stern, 2018Quoted from PinMonk:Glass off. Put it in test mode for the switches and see which switch is firing from vibration by hitting the playfield with your open palm in various places. That switch or switches is/are likely your problem.
Thanks VL the orbit switch was hung up ready to roll when home tonight !!

Thnx VL it was switch at orbit was hung up ...ready to roll tonight after work !!
Quoted from Rob_G:Loops are extremely difficult to make on my game so I'm tempted to change the upper right flipper angle slightly to see if it makes any improvement. A big part of the issue is if the ball hits too high in the left loop entrance, it just bounces dead. Has anyone else had grief making loop shots on their game?
Rob
I had to adjust my upper R flipper slightly as it was just being grazed by the auto launch. And it did make the loop a lot easier to hit. The only negative is the ball will not feed to the right lower flipper when it loops around--it just clips the upper right flipper.
I put a lightning flipper in on that upper right to prevent clipping. Works like a charm. Loop shot is difficult but it has its moments.
Quoted from Eskaybee:I put a lightning flipper in on that upper right to prevent clipping. Works like a charm. Loop shot is difficult but it has its moments.
Does anyone sell lightning flipper sized flippers, but no lightning design or logo? I've been wanting to put shorter flippers on some games that are non williams, but don't want to put williams lightning flippers on them.

That is a cool idea.
Quoted from Kkoss24:What’s a lightning flipper
Its a shorter flipper, I think about 1/8" shorter.
Here's my upper flipper. This is how the previous owner had it and I've left it for now. It's the only Maiden I've ever played that had the flipper like this.
Pros:
+ Really easy to make the big loop. As in you really don't need to ever lift the upper left flipper.
Cons:
- Can't really shoot the mummy ball or spinner
- Much easier to shoot the outlane by accident
I actually used a white lightning flipper. It looks funky with the yellows, and I have since bought some yellow lightning flippers. But, the white one has worked so well (over a year now), I don’t dare touch it haha. Maybe I’ll trade out the others to all white. Anyone know the part# for the mininipper left flipper - wonder if that comes in white?

Yeah mines like the other guys .I don’t have a problem with either shot except that I suck lmao.

If you’re having a problem with either of the loop shots, try a standard black rubber. It makes a difference.

Yeah I hear they have more grab prolly because no added color I’m taking it .Just kidding w that other I just got into this earlier this year I’m getting there .Most games 150-350 I just havnt got over the hump yet but I will !! Hopefully tonight when I get home from work 
Shit doin it again ...won’t let pick song then that laser sound keeps going off and points add for nothing I’ll try again

Quoted from Ty-Arnold:Kkoss24 90 pins there and Maiden is the best. That is a strong statement! Where in ft. Wayne do they have 90 pins? You are lucky to have such a great local place to play.
Place is a blast.Wizard World arcade the owner said they’re in the process of buying its neighboring businesses and adding another 100-150 pins !I bring my kids there just about every weekend .They just got turtles in !

Joined the club finally! Traded my Comic Star Wars Premium for my IMDN Premium! Already started modding, and fixing some of the issues like the ball getting stuck behind the left ramp tomb and one of the bumpers firing its self. Nothing I couldn’t handle. I love this machine so much!
Thank you for all the tips I’ve read through. Look forward to many more

That means your orb is adjusted too sensitive. Happened all the time on the one at our regular tournament location. We always were taking it out of the tournament because the game would register a hit on one of those while the ball was still in the shooter lane, taking away the possibility of a skill shot.

Quoted from Kkoss24:Yes that sounds like it ...thank you how do I adjust that .Im guessing it’s that part underneath that holds the stem from captive ball ?
Yes. It works like a pop bumper spoon switch. Use a leaf adjustment tool to get it just right. May have to loosen and move the spoon assembly as well, it if isn't centered.

The sooon assembly seems centered ...is the adjustment on those 2 screws to the right?

Need to see the switch from the side to check the gap. Looks like the blade is twisted on the bottom blade. Could be causing intermittent unintentional contacts. Also, do you have the pencil-point version of the dish actuator post or the squared off one?

I’ll take a side pic In a bit ...but for now I tightened the 2 screws that hold mechanism up to playfield And the 2 that hold the “rod” up toward playfield (don’t know what to call that )they were loosey goosey now played 2 games all working fine ..

It’s the pencil point

I think it’s just exposer .I lived most my life on south side of Chicago and hung out in bars regularly and never saw one believe it or not.Then we got a camper out in Fremont IN they had 2 in real rough shape so that was a deterrent.Finslly when I was starting to finish basement I looked up arcade games and up came the trailer for WOZ pinball n I’ve been hooked ever since...I mean hooked lmao

Not to shit on your unicorn, but you can go to jail for that...

Lmao
Been giving this game hell the past couple of weeks trying to A) get to the Beast again and B) defeat him!
So tonight I threw on my Legacy of the Beast shirt and started another run. I played 3-4 warm up games then started my attempt.
Game is set to factory settings with a pretty decent tilt level.
After Ball 1, and the 1 extra ball I earned, I had 3 EDDIE cards.

On Ball 2 I got to 2MTM, which gave me my fourth card and drained out.

Started ball 3 with the Beast ready to go. This was my second time ever battling the Beast. The first time I played terrible and only took 2-3 health away. While I didn’t defeat him, I did get him down to 6 health. Pretty ironic what my final score was too!

Is Stern service shut down? I tried calling their number and got an automated response that says due to COVID, they are not answering calls and to e-mail them. I sent them an e-mail and have not received any response in 24 hours. Anybody know the best way to get a hold of someone?

i emailed them about a 3weeks ago and still nothing. Just tried again. I'm only asking for the revised 'pointier' hex posts used on the 2 newton ball targets!

That's what I've been hearing from friends.

I've also failed to get any response from them recently, even with my distributor helping.
Well couple of years in from original release and still loving the fast gameplay of my tricked IMDN Pro.
I had the option of the LE at the time but just loved the cab decals of the Pro.
It’s funny cause now I’m wondering if I would have preferred the additional mechs of the Premium. It was good reading the comments made previously in this regard - Pro vs Premium.
I would like a Premium, but would miss the crazy fast gameplay of Pro - it gets totally mental, nothing like I’ve seen.
Saying that - I reckon the mechs would be very interesting

I went Premium, and other than those 2 stupid newton ball mechs; very happy indeed.

Cool, glad you’re enjoying it!
I think I need to have a go on a Premium at some stage for sure.....
I didn’t even know it had the extra — Can I play with Madness Mode —-
I had to remove the PU shooter lane protector from my one as it was messing with the gameplay. Fails to register the ball has left the shooter lane.
Still haven’t collected more than 3 eddies - need to try harder!
