Quoted from CashMoney:

Hey everyone, I’m hoping any Premium/LE owners can help me out with an issue im having.
8i have an issue where the tomb opens and I shoot a ball through the opening and doesn’t register the shot. Then I lose the award or ball lock and have to try again. Very frustrating. It only registers the shot about 50% of the time...
I thought it would a switch issue but I’ve tested it and it works fine. This switch isn’t the one in the “bent arm” switch that in the mummy ball lock, it’s much larger. So I’m stuck trying to figure out what the issue is.
Any thoughts on how to fix this? Anyone else had this issue?

Quoted from Sleal16:

Try re imaging the code from scratch. Could have been a glitch somewhere.
As far as that metal piece, it warps over time from the impact landings. I had mine brand new and started noticing some random hiccups as I put more games on it. Ended up swapping for a carbon fiber pad from Cliffy and has been perfect ever since. If you end up trying to remove it to flatten it, its a pain. The adhesive is pretty strong.

Quoted from ToddSonOfOdin:

Pinball-mods.com - need a body, base and skirt for each.
I used a hacksaw to score and cut the one skirt - two are cut on the game but I found cutting both was not necessary.

Quoted from Kkoss24:

Yeah I’ve heard people say it’s the easiest card to get but I beg to differ .

Quoted from Sleal16:

1-of-4 mods WIP. color scheme draft completed for this oen. Once i get my game put back together will take some new photos. Went with sandstone look vs antique gold. Made a magnetic mount cover to help hide the screws/etc. Second mod WIP sometime in September.

Quoted from Anony:

That's how it looks on mine too and yeah that ramp is a pain, if it comes back down you have a good chance of draining in the left outlane. I think the offset is there so it can bounce off the right post if it comes back down rather than go straight towards the center drain.

Quoted from Xdetroit:

Almost broke 1 billion yesterday. I feel like 1 billion is a good score but somewhere around 2 billion would be killing it. I got to a couple of cyborg multiballs but only 3 cards. Not completely sure what I’m doing to get the cards and get to the final wizard mode yet.
I checked the key post about the rules but the link in the post is now broken

There's a lot of paths I've seen different people take to a billion but most can abstracted to "Don't die and stack multipliers on whatever parts you're best at."
I've seen it done with <2 modes started/complete.
I also once had a game where I reached the beast with under 250 mil by doing the absolute bare minimum necessary to collect the 4 cards and bricking basically everything else.

I think I've done Mummy more than the other 3 combined.
Ignore lit shots. Cradle 1 ball on left flipper. Loop left orbit from right flipper over and over occasionally clipping the captive ball.
If you're feeling fancy clear the left ramp during initial ball save and if you lose your looping ball at some point fire the cradled ball up the right ramp during the grace period to get it back.

Quoted from craif:

Yeah, it's deceptive. All the lit shots do is trigger the add-a-ball. Super Jackpot requires 5 normal jackpots on the captive ball. Lighting the jackpot on the captive ball is any switch hit. 10 to light the first then another 20, 30, 40, 50. The first will usually be lit just from getting trapped up and the first few just need one good spinner rip though usually need 2 for the last 2. If you cash in by grazing the captive and continuing through the spinner the next one starts charging up immediately.
If I don't miss from trap up to super jackpot usually takes me about 9 shots including the final bullseye but I've done it in 7. Could theoretically be done in 5 if the first were already lit, the spinners were hot and you cashed in the fifth with a graze to the right side of the ball that made it up the center ramp to the bullseye.
The same-flipper catch on the return can be tough but if it bounces it's pretty easy to catch it on the left flipper. Either tap the left ball over while the right is airborne or pair them up on the left and cradle-seperate one back. Whichever works better on your machine.

Quoted from Sleal16:

We'll have a few of these maybe by late winter (February?). Guess this would be a tease then for this. Collab project with some friends, and my buddy who does painting on these kinds of figures just had twins, so waiting on that to settle down along my kiddo in the coming weeks =)
Doing two versions of her. The one on the right is a bit more on the video game promo art look.

Quoted from Anony:

Most people resolved this issue by getting the Cliffy carbon fiber protector. Even with really good 3m tape the metal one from Stern has a tendency to warp and end up lifting,

Quoted from Sleal16:

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

Quoted from mwong168:

Would this fit or work or does anyone have this on their Premium or LE?

Quoted from Sleal16:

topper WIP update. this rough draft puts us at about.....30%? ish. Theres a huge chunk of stuff on my list we need to slowly add and figure out. These stained glass windows will light up along with the cards in the game. Maybe first working prototype sometime in the summer.
Clairvoyant is needing an extra week or two before officially offering it. Instead of rotating the existing RGB PCB board to shoot up into the ball, I'm fitting in its own light in order to maintain the spotlight underneath. Just got in a few different lights I'll be testing this weekend.
Once kiddo starts daycare in a couple of days and gain some time during the day again, I'll sort my stuff further and make that thread to not spam here updates =)

Doodled some stuff but still mulling over placements and poses. might be a few months =/[quoted image]

Quoted from CaptainNeo:

I love the looks of this, but I don't like that you lose all the lighting from the entire back panel. Darkens up the back of the machine a lot. At first I was excited about it. The more I looked at it, the more I didn't like losing all the lighting. At $400 I might be in and do some specific ambient flood light mod attachments. But for $700-800. I'm out.

Quoted from Sleal16:

Also when that metal protector starts curling from all the drop impacts, it can prevent it from freely moving around those edges. Forces it to push up against those areas and slow down enough to keep it stuck. Cant tell from the reflections, but is your protector still flush with the playfield or starting to curve?

Quoted from gumnut01:

I only acquired my LE about a month ago. I am not an LE guy, but one came up with Gus and other enhancements for a fair but large price and I bit the bullet. I enjoy the underworld lifting up and the sarcophagus enhancements with the mummy target far too much to do without. I don’t have any problems with the orb or captive ball. No regrets, I’m sure the pro is great. I own a twd pro, had a STh pro and turtles pro. Would not want these in premium or Le form. But I do want these extras in maiden. You’re not going to get one consistent answer but don’t think you can lose with either version.
Edit. Don’t know why you would be downvoted just giving your opinion. Is this the bond 60th thread, sheesh!!

Quoted from gumnut01:

But so different from one another. I think they complement each other well.
Edit: and one pin is hard. Even though I like steak over chicken, couldn’t stomach steak every night.

Quoted from Ceemunkey:

Gotta say Lior's backboard complements the apron beautifully. I'm almost done with my Maiden now all that's left is to powdercoat it when I get my new side rails. Such an awesome game.

Ain't that the truth.[quoted image]

Quoted from dogwith1eye:

Haha, I’m finding the exact opposite. Just got my grand champion score and set my loop champion score in the process. A lot of different ways to approach this game, been having luck simply focusing on mummy and just letting everything happen in the process of going for that.[quoted image]
