    Pinballnews.com - STLE In-depth Review Part #1

    I wish every designer would comment on their games as Steve has done here... Just shows that he actually cares about this stuff. D

    ColorDMD Next Release Announcement

    TOTAN would be excellent in colour. I can see IJ being great too. D

    FS Cabinet Repairs and Replacement

    Colin, Going this route saves a LOT of time and headache when it comes to prep, which is THE most important step in re-decaling a cab. Transferring everything over is really easy. (also doing it this way would be MUCH quicker as I can work on the cab without your game being in my shop until...

    Nice to add another crazy pinhead to the mix! Welcome to the club Tyson. D

    FS Cabinet Repairs and Replacement

    I was just going to say, whatever WPC it's for... it's a widebody! So IJ or RS or STTNG would be my guess. Excellent work Steve! D

    FS "Not Mine" Pinball Machines For Sale

    That was in fact before tax and premium. Over 3K for a BTTF that has issues... this hobby is ridiculous. (and this is one of the reasons it sours it for me) D

    Re: FS: Who Dunnit Cool. If it was I could vouch for it as I shopped and repaired his. GLWTS! D

    Genie woes...close but no cigar

    The 10pt not working could be a stuck switch. I had a similar issue on my BH after a PF swap. D

    Genie woes...close but no cigar

    If coils are locking on thats a sign of bad transistors. I'm not familiar with Genie so not sure if the coils that are locking on are driven from the MPU directly or from under PF mounted transistors. You need to locate the transistors that control each of those coils and verify the...

    Potentiometer Help

    Sounds like the wiper arm in that pot has failed, which isn't uncommon. If you're certain it needs a 200 ohm (or thereabouts) pot, just find any that fits and you're off to the races. (if it's for an audio circuit it technically should be a pot with an "audio taper" which is what the 'B' in...

    Grauwulf's Tips/Tricks/Tools thread

    If you're just checking for strobing / pulses a logic probe will suffice, but there are times when an o-scope is the only tool for the job. (sound boards would definitely be one of these times) D

    Smoke in the cabinet is bad, right?

    Luckily the damage wasn't too bad, and I was able to repair everything for Chris. D

    Congo - erratic post beside left ramp (pwned!)

    Yep, that sounds like the correct theory of operation. Let us know if this ends up being the issue. D

    iPhone Pinball Machine Leveling App

    I'm sure each ring on that level represents a pre-determined angle. Find whatever 6.5 is and mark it with a sharpie, and you can level side to side and set the correct pitch at the same time and you're good to go. (or just use one of the free phone apps... lol) D

    BSD - The one that got away... and came back!

    Only games I've sold and re-aquired are Whitewater and Rollergames. The previous was to obtain a better copy as the original was misrepresented by the seller (and was bought over long distance). The later I should have never sold my original copy to Chris Hutchins, and I regret it immensely...

    iPhone Pinball Machine Leveling App

    But I'm cheap and the bubble level app is free. I have a nice big bubble level at home I can use to calibrate, but hauling that same bubble level around on service calls not to mention using in a game is a bitch. :) D
