46" / 30" / 19" widebody cabinet

Hi Chris,

Do you happen to have the dimensions for your DMD? It appears to be the same size as your other pins and looks good. Do you like the size? What res do you run the DMD at?

Thanks,

-Ron

the DMD-bezel is an original part from williams wpc95 generation pinballs, so the size is exactly the same. An 19" LCD (5:4 format) fits perfectly. The DMD resolution is downscaled to 640x480 (native res is 1280x1024). This hardware downscaling effect gives an authentic dmd look (better than native res).

If you want the original look and feel go this way.

Could you post the dimensions of the view port? Thanks!

[chriz99]

DMD/Speakerpanel = 69.5cm * 22cm (approximately)

DMD/Scoreboard cutout = 34 * 9cm (approximately)

Thank you sir!

Chris, not sure if i am missing a trick, whats the advantage of the 19" screen in a 1:1 replica machine? the dmd is only 13.38" wide and that can be covered using a 17" screen.

I am struggling to think of the advantage of using the 19 over the 17?

I think your 17" fits perfect to your dr. who speakerpanel

In my case (with an original wpc95 speakerpanel, about 340-345mm width of the dmd-area) only a 19" will cover the whole dmd cut-out area + you can hide the tft-bezel a little bit better with 19".

19" (1280x1024) Display Area width 376 mm

17" (1280x1024) Display Area width 337 mm

thats odd, i thought all those williams had the same dmd size, as i based mine off the twilight zone machine i had sitting next to it. are we saying that the STNG dmd is larger than TZ or partyzone etc?

it is odd hey! Even "standard" lock down bars are not standard... so many variations.

the dmd-size is always the same, but the size of the dmd/speakerpanel is a little different (just a few milimetre).

ok now i am more confused. if the dmd size is the same across all the range of this style of williams machines, then the 17" monitor is big enough to cover the width of the dmd are as per mine copied from a TZ machine. if i recall its like 13.38" which you can get out of a 17" screen.

so not getting why the 19" is needed unless you want to make the dmd area bigger than the original williams ones.

[tagi3d]

I think he's saying the actual DMD (the lights panel) is the same size, but the speaker panels gap size can vary. So there is more border around it on some... and thus for SOME panels the 17 inch will produce a gap around the border.

I have some questions about the tilt-bobs, how to connect it, directly to ipac? Do you have a diagram?

Thanks in advance.

WOW! your build is absolutely awesome! you have to open your own thread, for sure!

How many switch do you use? Only one for frontal tilt?

yes, only one for front tilt... but you can also use 3 for left/front/right tilt... just try it.
