Mini-Pin X Build

[nuama]

I love seeing more pictures of your machine! Do you have anymore day shots of it in action?

You were right about the measurements, I had to make some adjustments to make it all fit. I will start a thread sometime to show my progress and share the measurements to use 3/4 pine.

[njay]

Yeah it forgot the thickness of the wood in the measurments... stupid me

i can take some shots tommorow if you would like !!

and yeah start a build thread of your own i am very interested in that

[njay]

So i was getting tired of the off screen surface errors etc because my 9800gtx had only 512mb of ram...

I ordered a GTS250 with 1GB of ram which are not so expensive anymore.

But question how did everyone get it working with the required 182. drivers for nvidia?

[njay]

Ok just installed the card and it worked with the 182.50 drivers on my machine

I can finally run the high res tables now sweet !

so for anyone who reads this don't hold out on your vid cards

[njay]

Next up:

Flashers and strobes on the backbox through ledwiz

(ofcourse when chriz99 en et2k finished their project)

[njay]

Ledwiz ordered

[njay]

So i installed some buttons already for the led wiz project

Blue for start

Red for launch ball

Luckily i had some around from my old mame project

[njay]

LED-wiz installed and working also a pic of the great new sttng table ! by jpsalas

[gbeef]

Wow you have everything wired up ready to go

[njay]

yeah, like you i cannot wait

[njay]

Little update:

I ordered 2x rgb led drives for the top flashers, they will not be as bright as the cree lights because they where designed for push button illum. but they will do because i am really close up them.

Also ordered 2x electric ice buttons with rgb drives and leaf switches for my cabinet.

Thanks to chris for his patience for all my 1000 questions

Hopefully they are bright enough but i think it will be ok , seeing how bright the single leds are..

i think three top flashers it just to much for my little mini

[njay]

OFcourse not as bright as those cree leds, but they will do

Still need to decide where to point the LED at or towards me or to the back to the wall

Cool beans njay!

Is this the RGB 3W LEDs found on ebay?

Have plans of pointing them top up against the player.

Do you think they will suit as I don´t want to blind the player as chriz99 LEDs may be to bright for my placement?

Cheers!

[shilmover]

I will let njay answer, but they dont seem bright enough to be the 3W LEDs from ebay...

[njay]

You are right they are just the RGB leds from groovy game gear.

The video does not show it but they light up the room a little bit

Big difference with you big cabinet owners, i stare straight into the leds on the backbox

So high powered would blind me in my play ! i think it works ok

Nice, where did you get the caps for the leds ?

[njay]

thanks locally from a shop here in bunschoten www.pinballwizard.nl

little expensive 4 euros per cap

[njay]

Installed Leaf switches for the flipper button left one works perfect , the right one sometime fails to respond.

How can i adjust these easily?

[pixelmagic]

Losmaken en naar elkaar/van elkaar af drukken

[njay]

Ok thanks

[njay]

I ordered a williams replay knocker assembly and i will temp. power it through my psu from my pc so 12v

is it correct when powered at 12v i can just connect the ground to my ledwiz? and if i power it higher 24v i need a relay?
