Some information that may help regarding auto ball launching and lack of power.I was having this problem intermittently and thought the coil was losing power. I researched this thread and followed some advice and removed the auto launcher coil sleeve and replaced it but it didn't help. I cleaned the original and put it back in. I have previously done all the others tips recommended in this thread and they have worked but this had me stumped.
I cleaned the shooter lane with some novus 2 and the playfield where the ball tracks, no good.
I then noticed that the auto launcher was at times hitting the shooter lane protector on the right side. I pushed it away and it launched balls perfectly. After trying a few things I loosened the screw slightly on the auto launcher pin and now it works perfect every time.

Anyone receive their Art of Pinball Oracle yet? I’ve been waiting on mine and no response from my inquiries with Little Shop of Games.

I received mine over a week ago but ordered direct from Lior

Those are commodity items used in cabinet, furniture, home decor and general home/building construction. Should be available from any large hardware store, construction supplier, etc.

Check Mitre 10. It looks like they have most of these items. There's one on Elizabeth St.

Can anyone tell me the size of speaker cut outs that comes with these!

Here's the same without cut outs. Looks like 4 1/2 inches

Killer thnx!

Inquire with lior directly. He seems to take service very seriously and gets these things sorted out fast. It sounds like LSOG is behind right now and slow to answer e-mails, I've seen a few other complaints about a lack of reply from them.

To the folks who own a Premium: have you had any issue with node board which controls the ramp?

I know where you’re going with this. The ramp in IMDN is controlled by a solenoid and not a motor, like Rush. Node 10 in IMDN simply controls the lighting of the “intelligent dome” in the back, right corner.

Thanks!

I know exactly where that goes.

Thank You all for your responses on this part.

Coming back to this post, I'm about to replace that plastic piece and I do notice these posts get loose a lot. When you say make sure the cone is not upside down, what do you mean exactly? I thought these pieces were cylindrical and not conical?

I read this message the other day and today I played a few games trying to only hit bullseye targets. Prior, I didn't know it kept track. Although now I wish it would be a stat when holding the right flipper button in to see how many I have shot.

High score is 36 Bullseyes.

Damn, yea I reckon 47 is not going to be beaten on my machine

Reset all the scores now before you get a lot more high scores. its only one score but I know it would bother me long term

I love the powercoat on this one. Great color choice. One of the better ones i've seen. I did the same Translite swap on my GB. didn't like the premium look and swapped it for a pro version.

Does anybody know if there are any Senjutsu mods? I understand the game came out prior to this album, but I do think it is one of their top 3 albums and would love to pay homage to that on the playfield...plus a samurai Eddie would be beyond cool.

Save me a seat in the club, boys. I just put a deposit down for a Premium in the May run. Super-psyched!

Thought the same after listening to the album. And the concert giant samurai Eddie looks badass. Not sure where one could go on the playfield though. Also because I'm guessing once that merchandising expands there will be figures readily available at a good price that could replace one of the existing ones. Working on a diorama topper that merges the themes of the three versions of the game, so maybe one can be added up there.

Speaking of which, I'll have a teaser of a fragment of the topper I'm working on hopefully this weekend. All pending if the newborn can sleep enough on his own so I can finish some painting, lol. I'll end up making and linking a dedicated mod thread of the stuff I've been working on for the past 6 months with more details and optimistic timelines on releases.

I was thinking of swapping out Straightjacket Eddie with Samurai Eddie??

Also, heres a fun one after 6 months of slowly adding to it. Needs a couple of more tweaks to the design to increase stability on some small sections. Merged some accuracies from the game and the comics in her clothing and color detail

I'll play with that. I have some crude posable stuff that I 2d print to see how something might look. You just end up losing the package of what that pop bumper area is supposed to represent.

Really nice my man .I see your a boob guy lmao those things are gigantic !!

looks great. you make this? She is a little big, but not too bad. I think a 20% reduction in size would be perfect for her placement.

Hah, I think thats perspective on the video. But now that you got me second guessing it, going to ask my wife. Its usually the first thing she points out on things like that and she never mentioned it before when I ask her for feeback

Yeah. Good feedback. I initially had her smaller but wanted it to stand out more (up to getting close to the glass). Will mess around with scaling this week or two.

she will stand out anyway, because she is front and center, but you don't want her blocking to much visibility in the pop area. plus those fingers look very close to the glass line. You dont' want them getting snapped off when putting the glass on.

her boobs are fairly big. Doesn't look out of proportion at all.

Fingers have good amount of clearance. Theres still about 5mm space. Dont think playfield placements vary. And visibility everything looks good. I'll take some more videos+photos from the player perspective and make some assessments. Will make one smaller without putting much detail in the painting and try to get some comparisons.

My custom codes add a Senjutsu attract mode video which is really cool.

Always a good idea to play it safe and tell her you modeled it after her

Looks great though, that or the Art of Pinball one is a great addition to any game.

looks great as is

this is very impressive! You do amazing mods mate!

Does the machine not warn you if you've got 5 balls installed instead of 6?

I haven't played in a while but my friends play sometimes and after taking the glass off today to do some maintenance I noticed only 5 balls were in. Took me a minute but I found it up on the plastic piece under the right ramp.

I'm surprised the game hadn't been warning that a ball was missing unless it was and I just didn't notice.

When will be able to buy Miss Clairvoyant Boobs? Really cool mod!

Thanks guys

lawl. looking at my other version more in line with the mobile game reference art (captainneo's post up above), theyre about proportionate to herself and the game art. but i'll be doing hopefully 5 a month just for a few months. 1-3 weeks to make and test final tweaks. I'll post more info here+in a thread once i have a super small preview of the WIP topper this weekend

so it let you start games with 5?if you were between games and hadnt started one, it shouldnt check for balls. starting one then it would try to find it. been a while since i've had something stuck but remember it behaving that way

Shoot me a pm when you have some ready. Thanks
PS: I prefer the bigger ones

Yeah I was wrong , they’re petite I guess I’ll be following !

I have Piece of Mind Eddie (Straightjacket) straddling the bottom of the left ramp instead of the normal spot to the left. Another figure would fit in his normal spot easily.

What is the price on these?

Still need to figure it out. Trying to base it off how long it takes to paint but just havent had time to sit down uninterrupted yet. Will find out by end of the month. I'll have unpainted DIY as well. Just gotta finish all the model adjustments first.

Looks sweet. I would like one as well once you get them finished. Can you keep me posted on this amazing mod? Thanks!

What’s the correct term for these ? I’m trying to find to order they did not have at our hardware store or Menards .Also if anyone knows of dealer of loose pinbsll plastics please lmk
