dokworm Posted June 16, 2011 Posted June 16, 2011 Astoundingly good artwork, only thing I'd work a bit more on is the tombstones, and use a slightly different model for each and grimy them up a bit. I love it.
Lucian045 Posted June 16, 2011 Author Posted June 16, 2011 Going to upload a new video in HD later this weekend showing off the cab with artwork and a better view of the playfield.
dokworm Posted June 16, 2011 Posted June 16, 2011 I'll be looking forward to it, if my build ends up half as good as yours, I'll be doing a happy dance.
Lucian045 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Posted June 19, 2011 Here is my updated video in HD...big file so might take a while to load. Again, I just want to thank everyone on this forum for the awesome ideas and support. Next up will be adding Hyperspin to the cab for some 42" Donkey Kong!
Numiah Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 Very nice job you did there. You mentioned adding solenoids.. Well, you should definitely add those, the feedback from these things is great. It adds a lot more reality when you push the flipper button and the sound is actually coming from the front of the cab instead of the speaker panel. And your artwork is impressive too ! As I am working on mine I am a bit concerned about the corners. You've set my standard now **Each pinball machine is a tiny universe... that we control** My Build Overview My Computer Specifications
Guest gstav Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 Great work there mr! 42" Donkey Kong(!)... That I would love to see!
Lucian045 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Posted June 19, 2011 Great work there mr!42" Donkey Kong(!)... That I would love to see! Well, when I can figure out Hyperpin it will be installed. It seems a little more complicated than Hyperpin, or maybe because I just don't know enough about it.
dokworm Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 I'd second the suggestion for putting solenoids or a big arse relay in to get the force feedback. Although, the option to turn them on or off is good if you are like me and have a game at midnight when you can't sleep. My cab is getting a headphone socket for the same reason.
ArcadesRFun Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Your pin came out sweet! Very nice job on the artwork. You used the same style vinyl mamemarquees gets for us. Now your pin needs one last touch. A custom aluminum water jet engraved game sign between the DMD and backbox screens! Here's what Bent98 did for the game we built for him. It's what we now do for all the games we build. Price is not too bad either, about $50-60.
Lucian045 Posted June 27, 2011 Author Posted June 27, 2011 Send me the info so I can get one ordered. Any word on forcefeed back setup Jack?
viriiguy Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 I am totally going to have to play off of your theme of a Pinball Graveyard with my own unit! That is just awesome!
Lucian045 Posted July 27, 2011 Author Posted July 27, 2011 I am totally going to have to play off of your theme of a Pinball Graveyard with my own unit! That is just awesome! Go for it! Love to see how it comes out.
viriiguy Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 I am drawing upon a few ideas now. My table is still VERY much in the planning stage... I only start back to work Monday after 3 months of being unemployed! So I am a couple months minimum from start.. However, your premise and all the history of Pinball I have been reading.. I see a vast Cemetery, with Backboxes for headstones....
alexandreb63 Posted September 7, 2013 Posted September 7, 2013 Parceiro é assim que quero fazer um agora com display de pontuação muito bom!! Parabéns. PaulistinhaGames
Lucian045 Posted September 7, 2013 Author Posted September 7, 2013 Got my force feedback package and will be updating the machine with lights, contactor's, shaker motor and knocker. I'll be posting pics soon and making a video as soon as everything is done.
Polemicist Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 How much does the force feedback kits set you back?
Lucian045 Posted September 8, 2013 Author Posted September 8, 2013 Took mine out in trade but I would say around $500 - $600 depending on what you did and where you got your equipment.
Polemicist Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 Wow. Virtual pinballs are an expensive hobby. But damn they look good.
Lucian045 Posted March 22, 2014 Author Posted March 22, 2014 Well, I sold the PinReaper a little while back. Plan on building or buying a new one soon. In the meantime this will have to keep me occupied! Lol
Luckydogg420 Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 One of Stern's best games is Star Trek. It's a lot of fun, the colour changing lights are a great addition to their games. They are really good for showing you your target shots and what mode your in. It's as much fun as WoZ or TSPP. I rate it better then MM or AFM, just a great game.
