We are working on a Sparky frying mod. Needs more work but you get the effect!

first i just wanna say thats awesome! BUT id be worried what the smoke might do with regards to keeping my machine clean.. of course if the fan removed it quickly prolly be fine... pc fan flex tubed through the bottom vent? intake and how to trigger the fan being turned on those would be the toughies. 
Love it.!!
If you could tweak it a little, (All within one game)..go with just a small puff of smoke the first time you get Sparky,
A little more smoke for the 2nd time , and what you demonstrate for the 3rd time ..!!!
(Heck, how about adding a smoke-blowing snake when Snake-multi ball is achieved.!!) 
THIS is what I've been suggesting since Met hit the street! Great work and I'm sure you will get it tweaked just right. 
That is just down right "COOL" !!!!

Quoted from tilted81:BUT id be worried what the smoke might do with regards to keeping my machine clean..
I did a "trunk'N'treat" one year and had smoke machines in my burb and it took me a few weeks to get the "oily" residue off. I used a water based fog juice.
I think that's way to much smoke and it's coming from the wrong place, it should be coming from Sparkys electrode attachment on his head. Just a little smoke not a lot.

Quoted from thedarkknight77:Nice. You need a fan to kick in after to suck the smoke out.
Yes indeed. That stuff will eventually stick to anything.

Yea, that's pretty much what I was afraid of..
I think if you have fans sucking the smoke right out....so that it's in for a 10 seconds after the frying of sparky.....than out of the machine it should keep things clean. I think it's a great idea and a fun MOD!! Looks good guys 
I think even with the fans that this will accumulate unwanted layer of particles over time either on the Playfield, on the inside of the csbinet, or on the wall behind the machine. Plus, in real life if someone hits the electric chair, is there any smoke?
Quoted from Mudflaps:I would love to see this... on my friend's game.

Suuuuuch a cool effect, though. Wow! Great job.

That's piss funny, awesome. Nice extractor fan in the head box venting through the back will add to the atmosphere too.
Pretty cool as I like the 4d effects. However, I think Tmezel already sells a smoke machine mod on their site. The smoke is not in the machine but outside of it. Might be better to avoid possible game damage.
Quoted from markmon:Plus, in real life if someone hits the electric chair, is there any smoke?
Only if Percy is in charge of wetting the sponge.

Looks like a modification to Lior's smoke mod. Did you use Lior's version to create this?

My post was Lior's smoke mod. Not sure what the Met is using.
