    Red & Ted's Roadshow Interactive Dual Beacon Topper

    Glad you ended up doing it the way you did... I wouldn't have wanted to get that call to come repair your MPU. At least this way everything is completely separate from the game should anything go wrong. D

    GnR just got better

    I'd be more interested in loading in a song by Pedro the roadie... at least then there is a reason for him to have his own plastic in the game! ;) D

    GnR just got better

    The problem I've found with GnR sound is the amount of compression DE had to use to get everything packed into the ROM's they had available at the time, which is what Goodmanners is likely talking about. The best way to describe it is loading up your mp3 player with songs using 128K bitrate or...

    Golden tee 2004

    That is definitely a source sync issue. Most cards cannot produce native 15khz or 24khz sync... although if it's a AVGA card it should work no problem. D

    WTB Gottlieb metal backbox doors

    What I'd like to know is where in the blue hell have all of these missing door's ended up?!? It's crazy to think about all the missing door's over the years... they must be SOMEWHERE! D

    #14 Twilight Zone Reset and the 5V Regulator

    It can be, but its not pretty and even then you still have a voltage drop across the driver and mpu PCB headers regardless. D

    #14 Twilight Zone Reset and the 5V Regulator

    So this one will be a first for me... in that I was out at a service call last night working on a reset issue in a Twilight Zone. Now that in and of itself is not new, anyone that has been into pinball for any legth of time should know that Twilight Zone is just one of those games that can be a...

    Looking for a Golden Tee vid card

    I don't think that fan and robertson screw combo is factory... just sayin'. :) D

    Whats with all the recent Rollergames love?

    RG is great bang for buck. It's ugly as sin, but that just contributes to how awesome it is! The music is some of sys11's best as well. D

    #13 STTNG Tie Back Mod *BEST WAY*

    It's an interesting thought... but where coils and flashers are driven the same way you would still have the issue of locked on flashers if the tie back wire was to fail. And not sure if you've seen some of the damage a locked on flasher can do, but I think I'd rather a locked on coil over a...

    #13 STTNG Tie Back Mod *BEST WAY*

    I've often wondered this myself, and I honestly cannot come up with an answer to this other than overall cost? Back in the day it was probably cheaper (parts & labor) to run all that wire and tie it to a coil vs. terminating it to another connector as the wire was probably much cheaper than the...

    #13 STTNG Tie Back Mod *BEST WAY*

    To be honest I'm not sure and I would have to look at the cab wiring schematics to see if they indicate how they did it, but my guess is they tied it into the 50V in the head somewhere. If you wanted to take my mod one step further, you might also want to replace the IDC connector on the right...

    #13 STTNG Tie Back Mod *BEST WAY*

    Alright, for anyone that owns or has owned a STTNG you likely have heard about the dreaded Aux8 PCB "tie back" wire along with all of the issues this game can have surrounding it. For those that have not heard about this particular issue, the coles notes are this... STTNG has a LOT of parts...

    WILLIAMS WPC89/S DMD CONTROLLER

    I would stand behind ANY product Ed @ GPE has made over any other on the market. The issue can be supply, as Ed is frequently back-ordered on this stuff. (for good reason... it's the best) D

    Just finished my DMD Clock

    All said and done, it rings in between $450-and $600 right now mostly because of the exchange sucking. I had a hell of a time getting the LED panels to work with the controller because the documentation for everything was pretty much non-existent, but beyond that there isn't much to it. The...

    Just finished my DMD Clock

    I can absolutely do this as long as you add $5-600 to the bill. D

    Just finished my DMD Clock

    It's a custom controller made by a guy in Sweeden named Torbjorn. D

    WILLIAMS WPC89/S DMD CONTROLLER

    Is yours completely missing or has it failed? These are not usually too difficult to repair if it's the later. D
