I have a CPR playfield to install in my ww. I am interested in how it affects gameplay and would like to see some photos too.
I have a CPR playfield to install in my ww. I am interested in how it affects gameplay and would like to see some photos too.
I have just installed mine, and have only a few games on it as I am making adjustments, but I think it turned out well, and seems to play fantastic.
A couple of thoughts:
-Not all the dimples on the backside of the playfield were there and not all were in the right spot (Which was to be expected), so I made sure that before I started putting in screws that mechanically everything fit together.
- I had some trouble with the discs being level-not the up and down adjustment, but one side of the discs being flush with the playfield and the other side not so much. I leveled things out with washers placed on one side of the disc assembly underneath.
- When I built the pop bumpers, I followed Ed Cheung's advice to make things easier. I did this on a another game and it worked out great. http://www.edcheung.com/album/album08/pinball/tz.htm
A list of stuff done:
I ended up replacing the ramps, the topper, put in a NOS translight, new power supply board, new single drop target board, remote battery holder, new flipper coils and a rebuild, getting a xpin display, pinball pro speakers and sub, tumbled and cleaned the crap out of everything, put Pinbits protectors on to save the new CPR plastics.
I really wanted this thing to look and play well, so I'll never get back what I have in it, but I love the game so there is no intention of it leaving my collection.
One note about Cliffy's: I had to modify the ramp protector a little as it didn't fit the thicker Pinball Inc repo.
Also, the hole protectors do not fit. I think the playfield is a little thicker than the original, so when I tried putting in the protectors, the kind of twisted and buckled a little and did not fit flush to the playfield. Anyone else have this problem with Cliffy's and CPR playfields? I have an email into Cliffy to get his recommendation.
Nice work GJB! Looks fantastic! I'm going to be doing my WW pf swap this Winter. I may hold off on ordering the Cliffy hole protectors until he comes up with a solution to make them fit right.
Not that you are looking to spend more money but did you see that CPR is now doing a mirrored WW Backglass?
Quoted from boo32:Excellent job! Did you see the post about the CPR backglass?

Thanks guys. Yeah I saw the CPR backglass and it looks very cool, but I'm kind of tapped right now. Maybe if I can recoup a little I'll try and get one.
Let me know if I can help in any way. I've got a ton of pictures as well.

Thanks! I may hit you up with some questions once I get started!
