Where is the KISS code?

I was told KISS code in 21 days or under when I was at TPF last Friday. That would put it just in time for MGC on April 8th.

Cool, i hope so!
I'm even more tired of hearing people complain about the code, as I am waiting for the code.

Well that is a TV show...so it's fake. Detroit is much much worse than that in places.

I live in Ann Arbor...which isn't really very Michiagan-ish other than speaking nasely and calling soft drinks "pop."

Good friday is not a national holiday. Its only a public holiday in ~13 states. IL isnt one of them...

Code is a ways away.

How do I know? Gary goes to red glasses right before new code is released. He is now wearing "no code release white" glasses, also known around Stern as "def-code-1".

Can't believe we didn't figure this out sooner.

He's been saving BDK. I think its nieve to think if code needs help its all hands on deck. GG job is to make every game a success not just have a good game when Lyman is involved.

yeah. I am sure they get lots of hiccups along the way that can throw things off also.

I was just glad to hear it is actively being worked on!

I really like the shots and layout of KISS but find the current code pretty boring.

Do they generally add new animations post release or just make use of existing but unused dots? Someone said when they went and looked at all of the animations and call outs in pinball browser there werent many more of either available for future use...

Love the shots on the game. Art is great. New Spike sound system is awesome. It just needs code to make it stand out.

And it's still crushing on route! New code should make earnings stay that way for awhile.

Pretty sure they can add whatever they want to it. If there aren't many more dots or callouts available, then that seems pretty weak.

Well...since code updates always seem to be just a couple of weeks away, I thought I'd change the conversation up just a little. Has anyone else noticed that during certain modes that approximately 1/4 of the right side of the DMD goes black/blank until whatever image it's currently showing changes 3 or 4 seconds later? I've also noticed it occasionally on the left side of the DMD. Anyone else seen this? I have a feeling it has something to do with the factory installed SD card. I know there were issues with some of the SD cards, but not sure if this was one of the issues. If I were to swap the SD card out with a new one, will the flash drive write/update to the SD card too during the code updating process or would I have to remove the SD card and copy it on my computer?

Only weird thing I have is that the sound cuts out for a second on the first game after firing up. Nothing after that though.
