Quoted from Sako-TRG:

Ah, ok...thanks for the input, I’d never seen it occur prior.
I’ll keep an eye out to see if I can nail the events leading up to it.

I've had that happen a couple of times now. Never happened before the update on mine.

Quoted from sk8ball:

Nothing was removed from aces high videos or match.

Thanks you for Maiden (goat) and Avengers.

Now get back to work on Bill and Ted or Back to the Future please

I think you mean Godzilla.

Thanks ,I could swear the first night I didn’t hear the fighter guns but I just played a quick game. last night it was there so I must’ve got confused with something else .Thanks bud great job with this code took it over the top .Me and my kids are basically learning how to really play pinball on IMDN .I call it Pinball U at home because that’s what it is a University for playing pinball .

Glad it wasn't just me because I thought the same thing! although there are still somethings I like better from 1.06.

I may be one of the few according to the responses here but I don't care that much for the new Flight of Icarus/ Revive animations. Let the down votes begin !

I was hoping that they would have just added the video and kept the old one. Like how fear of the dark has 2 different animations.

#8011 3 years ago

Yeah I’m not too excited about he FOI animations. Especially the ending with Eddie in flames and it says burn burn burn. Kinda dumb.

#8012 3 years ago

You’re nuts. The previous animations were awful and unfinished looking. The updated animations suit the brand and are completely refined. It’s a major improvement. Now if Stern will tackle the other subpar animations in this game ie: orb, ball save and ball lock as well replacing the terrible font this game will clearly be the GOAT.

#8013 3 years ago

Is there a way to play all the animations while your not playing ?

#8014 3 years ago
Quoted from Lethal_Inc:

Yeah the melting face and burn burn burn is a little excessive, but the rest of the mode is improved imo. I think I liked the old revive animations better but I'm barely looking at the screen on this game - the audio cues are huge for me and my skill level (or lack thereof).

#8015 3 years ago

I updated my LE and no regrets, this is a worthwhile upgrade. Machine gun sounds are different, but in a good way. Absolutely love the new Flight of Icarus and Revive animations. Got Cyborg multi ball on my third game which also has cool new animations. The game feels very polished at this point, what a masterpiece this game is. Thanks for the Christmas code update Stern!

#8016 3 years ago

Can someone explain the logic of the flashing lights above the left ramp on the backboard by the Anubis figure? I saw the left light flashing red today and didn't understand why. This is on the Pro model. Thanks-

Mike

#8017 3 years ago

First time battling the beast on the new code. It wasn't a very long battle, much like the previous 2 times on the old code. So close to 1 billion!

Torches one will flash per tomb treasure and sarcophagus lock, the other is for power/super ramps. The left pop bumper will flash during super pops. All part of the pyramid.

#8019 3 years ago

Thanks!

Is it possible to go back to a previous code after installing the new ?

Yes

Gotta be quick and download the previous code though. Stern keeps it relevant (and real), and they remove old code from the site.

Often they just remove the posted links. If you know the URL, you frequently can still access the last version or two of the code.

Why would you want to do that?

#8025 3 years ago
Quoted from gunstarhero:

I like the new light show in the latest code but I just don't care that much for the new revive and flight of Icarus animations. I'll put some more games on it next weekend and decide from there.

Try turning on family mode and see if it reverts to the older animations you prefer. It takes away the bloody extra ball animation...

#8027 3 years ago

Well as i suspected my gf is loving the new code....because it reset all the high scores. Ill give her until the end of the year before i start clearing her off the leaderboards again lol. Not bad for someone who had never touched a pinball machine until 3 months ago.

PinMonk Just ordered you’re Anubis 3D mod for my premium. Looks freaking so cool! You’re fans made a huge difference on my ST. Ya think Maiden could benefit from them?

#8029 3 years ago

Previous owner install. I believe he used, I think the term is "a wash", to give it this look.

#8030 3 years ago

In the new code when do you start seeing the roaming shot for EDDIE letters and do you have to change that somewhere in the adjustments or it is default?

#8031 3 years ago
Quoted from JHS71:

[quoted image]

It needs more or less of a black wash. Right now it's in a nowhere zone between the two and looks weird.

#8032 3 years ago

Thanks. I see what you mean. Just recently learned of the process. Will give it a try

#8033 3 years ago
Quoted from Lethal_Inc:

I think it is after the 4th mode is played, and I didn't have to do anything, it was already running.

#8034 3 years ago

Ill be listing a laserific topper fs soon and 1-2 characters off the pf....pm with any interest. pics soon.

#8035 3 years ago
Quoted from JonCBrand:

Anyone know what length this standoff should be for center support of left wire form? This one is 1.5"
Searched manual couldn't find a spec
Seems long and preloads wireform lifting exit of ramp.
2nd owner so might be normal or someone's mixup.[quoted image][quoted image]

It is long, but that was by design so the ramp does not interfere with the spinner.

#8036 3 years ago
Quoted from bigehrl:

Super Mode game (Esacpe Nublar-style) where you play as the Beast battling Eddie.

Thought the same. But I’m happy.

#8037 3 years ago

...so I hear the update includes the Center Bullseye ramp on the Pro. To rise revealing the scoop underneath!!! Woohoo!!...

#8038 3 years ago

Love having eddie letters lit at the upper mini loop on the new code. It's a fun, semi difficult shot, and it gives you a lot more incentive to shoot it now

#8039 3 years ago
Quoted from tomdotcom:

I agree - it was one of the shots that I felt was wasted before. I never really aimed for it, and only hit it when I missed the playfield multiplier target. It's definitely something I aim for after a ball lock or a slow ball coming down to the top left flipper

#8040 3 years ago

Anyone notice a change in the shaker motor since the update? I have a pro and since I did the update it seems the shaker doesn't activate as much. For example It used to shake when collecting score at the end of ball, but not longer does it. I have the setting enabled to maximum.

#8041 3 years ago

Any recommendations on what type and what size storage wise i need when purchasing a thumb/flash drive for my code update?

#8042 3 years ago
Quoted from Bohdi:

It would be tough to find a new thumb drive that wouldn't work. If all you need it for is this, go cheap.

I use this one:

On both the previous and the new code, my shaker only activates intermittently on the collecting score part of end of ball - seemingly only when i do well, and not for a mediocre ball. I haven't noticed any change in the shaker between code updates.

Is there an option to turn off the combo timer in order to collect death blows? Thanks

#8045 3 years ago
Quoted from luckyjab:

I’m pretty confident there is no timer on the combos. You simply can’t repeat a shot or hit drops, targets, etc.

#8046 3 years ago
Quoted from djreddog:

I meant to say can we turn off the timer for death blows? There definitely is a timer for that with the new code?

#8047 3 years ago
Quoted from luckyjab:

Not sure what the old code was, but just tested and you have 5 seconds to hit the death blow after you successfully do a combo. Once the 5 seconds runs out, your combo is still “active”, meaning hit another shot in the sequence and again you will have 5 seconds to hit the death blow.

Do you have the "Bonus Countdown Shaker" (or named something similar) turned on? The default is off.

Kind of cool, wanted to share. Bought my Maiden 3/7/20. Took a look at my first concert stub. 33 years to the date. The "Somewhere in Time" tour.

Finally updated. Love the new code.

Biggest noticable changes:

1. Eddie letters for mini loop. Absolutely awesome. I'm a loop addict.

2. Loop extra ball down to 30. I found 50 loops for xb too high, so I adjusted to 40. Now 30 is too low Lol. Keith: if there is another update, please consider raising the default to 40. It's the sweet spot for difficulty. EDIT: Sounds like others think 30 is still tough, so leave it!

3. Icarus visuals. I bitched about these after release. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

4. Bonus visuals, sounds and lights. Awesome!

5. More insults from the devil. YES!!!!!!! just when I thought I couldn't swear at this game more. The callouts and voice acting in this game is rarely talked about. They are so damned good.

Thanks to the entire team working on this game. It truly is a masterpiece. I was already playing this game more than any other. Now it's just crazy addictive, even after owning it for a long time.
