@@gallimead I honestly don’t remember how many connections there are. We have sold our M&MPM Machines. RECOMMENDED: Just take photos as you disconnect each connector and then reverse following the picture order when reconnecting. Cheers

@@piervilla3778 I’m so sorry. I tried to translate and I was unable to do so. Cheers and happy pinball times!!

@@keithsmith6356 99% LEDs. Sourced from Pinball Life and Yoppsicles as seen in my Space Invaders repair video(s) here on UA-cam. FreePlay is achieved by lowering replay threshold to 10,000 points for replay credit in the settings. The manual explains how to get to this setting. 10k points is low enough to keep the credits maxed out at 40 credits. Cheers!

I’ve been trying to figure out how to change and where to change these settings but I guess since no one wants to tell me I guess I have to figure it out thanks again.

@@keithsmith6356 on page 6 and on page 8. Setting to credit and adjusting scoring down to 10,000 points. www.ipdb.org/files/2252/Bally_1980_Space_Invaders_Manual_no_schematics.pdf

@@Steveos-Gameroom I’m on page 6 I’m sorry I’m old and it’s hard for me to understand but I still have not found how to get this machine off free play. It’s okay someday I’ll figure it out as of now I’m going to life the table completely up so I can work on the lighting. This machine is really in good condition but I’m OCD I want it to play just like it did in 1980. Accepting coins all lights working everything as it was. On the display where it shows ball the left credit area does not display anything I’m assuming because it’s in free play mode I don’t really know. I’m going to continue to try and figure out this free play mode and lighting, my LED should be in Monday wish me luck

@@keithsmith6356 i believe there is a dip switch setting to show credits or not

@@jlarsson1978 thanks! I’m a big music lover, but not a musician. ….maybe in my next life….

Cheers! @Blackrosemf

It’s a solid machine for sure.👏

@@jameswilson4426 lol.. this old classic Bally plays pretty tough even after all these years!! Cheers!

Very kind words. Thank you! + HWN is great. Welcome to the club!!

You know…. I kinda have forgotten, but what makes sense to me is that I sent a long, long wire from the led strip all the way to the back of the playfield and then down in the bottom of the cabinet, then sent the same wire all the way to the front of the bottom cabinet to the largish sized circuit board below the left flipper (coin door pcb? I tink 12V is printed on the board near the male pin). There is an unused male pin there that is 12 volts DC. I know that it’s a long path to get the voltage, but it was just there and being unused, so I chose it. Now as far as the ground wire for the led strip, I kinda feel like I just found (with my multimeter) a common ground close by the led strip and only sent a short single positive wire. There’s very likely an easier way, but heck, I had the extra wire and I didn’t hack into any used existing 12v. Cheers to you and your project!

@@Steveos-Gameroom I see that pin for 12vdc on the board and also a power ground pin. I'm assuming I can use that ground?

@@shock_me-gl9tw I believe that should work for your ground. If you have a multimeter you can test it, but I believe it should be a good and solid ground. I usually use little alligator clips to verify good power before finally soldering the connections to their final positions.

Measuring it, it appears to be 7/32” to 1/4” inch. I’m unsure if it is solid metal or tube. At the ends (under the playfield) the ends have a flathead type screws going up into the material to connect it to the armature.

Measuring it again it [may] be as small as 3/16” diameter. My measurement tool is pretty imprecise to measure it exactly.

Thank you for your reply and time

Congratulations and welcome to the Club! I love this pinball system and once learned it’s pretty robust system. Cheers!!

@@Steveos-Gameroom 🙏🏻 thank you !!!

👏 Bravo!!

Cool ideas! I’ve tried using original switches connected to the MPU and had conflicts. Maybe some kind of isolating may work. I’m interested if you can pull this off. Please let me know as I’d love to do the same. Cheers!!

Looks like someone did what we envision on a Bally Paragon. The guy used an Arduino in conjunction with the Wave Trigger. ua-cam.com/video/VDeCThowUhI/v-deo.htmlsi=aM8LNXCBh1k8suFU

Thanks!! These classics still stand tall today! Cheers~

That would be great addition

It is a real pinball machine. It was originally a Chicago Coin “Top Ten” and I modified it to be Rust Bros theme. We are Rust Bros viewer family! Cheers!!

@@Steveos-Gameroom Thank you for the info. Our family are big fan's of Rusk Brothers.

Thanks! Glad you liked it! It’s a real fun playing 😊and rare System 11 game. Cheers!

Yep. All true. I think in one of my The Big Lebowski videos I segway over at the end and pull and reflowing 3 or 4 Flintstones playfield lamp pcbs. 😂. Cheers!

Thank you aj! Much appreciated!! I’m doing a big pinball project and hopefully I can reveal it sooner than later. ✌️ Peace

It’s nice having lots of options with cool mods for our machines! 👏 Cheers!

Cool machine. Pretty rare to find, but they do come up for sale every now and again. PP fits right into a good sized lineup well IMO. Cheers!

Thank you!! Glad that you chose to view it. I find that Riverboat Gambler is a super fun machine!! Cheers!

@@Steveos-Gameroom I have one myself and am currently troubleshooting the diverter and both drop target banks-none of them are activating.

@@RearviewMirror-ij2pr I would check all fuses (pages 41+) and verify all fuses have continuity. www.ipdb.org/files/1966/Williams_1990_Riverboat_Gambler_Operations_Manual_August_1990.pdf Also check for fuses below the playfield (not sure if there are any). I’d then check the wire colors of the the diverter and drop target banks and follow them back to their origins. Also any connectors along the pathways. Cheers!

@@Steveos-Gameroom Yeah I already checked their fine..Looking at the drive transistors now. All of the connectors have been re-pinned. Thanks for the manual link!

@@RearviewMirror-ij2pr Be persistent and start with the most simplest before assuming the most complex. For me it’s been mostly simple remedies and sometimes taking another direction of thought. Oftentimes I come up with the correct resolution after sleeping on it. Keep me posted!

Thank you! We have both machines in our home for many years and both are very, very good and fun machines.

After several games these PPP flippers they seem to me to be more accurate and responsive overall. Ball hop seems to me to be less than the factory Sega setup and for an average player (me) they hit the mark and are consistent. They are definitely on the pricey side, but I do feel that the potential of their lasting performance due to their high-tolerance construction edges out the initial coin that I had laid out to get them. Plus.. they look extremely alien in an awesome way. No regrets with this flipper mod. Cheers and happy flipping!!

So pretty quickly after this video was uploaded my deadworld locked up again. I did enough research to realize that a replacement gearbox was an expensive direction. I pulled the gearbox again and soaked it with a combination of carburetor and brake cleaner and then blew it out with air from my shop compressor. I then extensively tested it out on the bench where it then worked phenomenally. Reinstalled it and it's functioning perfect. Fingers are crossed for sure.... But in the back of my mind it's a just ticking time bomb that I'm just waiting for it to say, "sorry that's all folks!" Cheers and good luck with your DW motor issue.

@@Steveos-Gameroom the guy I purchased mine from noted that the opto interrupter, the the small globe spins on, rubs on the inner shaft causing them to bind up and that us what causes the stop and gear spinning on shaft. Mine was stuck and wouldn't turn. As soon as he got the interrupter shaft off, it freed up. Now he's been sanding the inner shaft to a smaller diameter, if that's possible. I'll find out this weekend how it plays out. I'll let you know what I learn

Welcome!! Your kind words are greatly appreciated! Thank you. You’ve offered an incredible insight to the 1990’s pinball scene of Argentina. My illuminating modifications were done very inexpensively but still yielding nice results. Cheers my friend, good luck with your Judge Dredd pinball machine.

I wouldn’t have it any other way! And the longer the individual ball time, the better it gets!! Cheers!

Thanks. I’ll be using them exclusively until something even cooler gets invented. Cheers!

Wish we could help you out, but we sold this NSM jukebox several years ago.

I think similar to page sixteen: www.ipdb.org/files/311/Williams_1989_Black_Knight_2000_Operations_Manual.pdf They run the same software as the pinball machines from that same era, I believe. We sold our Shuffle Inn a couple years ago and the game manual went with it.

I really don’t completely remember though…. come to think of it. I do kinda remember loading up credits with my finger and the coin switch inside the coin door. and the game saying something like, “thank you, thank you, thank you…..” over and over

I believe it! The lamps are cumbersome to access and they really don’t interfere with gameplay. I’m sure glad our lamps are finally locked and loaded.

Purchased them on Amazon. I kinda feel like they were about $20 bucks cheaper... but everything has gone up in price lately. Cheers! www.amazon.com/SparkFun-4334427041-MP3-Trigger/dp/B01BHHBJ4K/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=sparkfun+mp3&qid=1707761384&sr=8-3

By they way, I think you're going to love your James Bond with its new sound mod!

😂 yep!

I highly recommend doing this mod. Cheers!

Glad you figured it out. I’ve got a really wonky switch issue on an old baseball machine that really has me scratching my head even though it is simple enough on its face. Like you I’m in for the long haul to correctly diagnose it remedy it. Cheers!
