Nice one htamas!!!  Great choice of backglass

For correct bulp no.'s and position you could always use the existing UVP's .. so you don't have to invent the wheel twice!

 

Cheers,

Thanks FD... actually, I did look at it but as mentioned, I'm not sure if there is any activity on the real backglass. There were just a very few videos I could find showing the backglass , and on those there didn't seem to be much (if any) flashing. It seemed to be mostly static. Nevertheless, I used the bulb numbers from the existing UVP (for the most part).

 

Can someone confirm whether the UVP bulb codes are true to the original? I only played the real Shadow once or twice myself and I don't remember how the backglass worked.

I couldn't figure out from the manual what the backglass lamps are, so if there is some confirmed information, please send it my way and I'll update the backglass.

Nice. Thanks! 

 

Good timing because I have been actually working on a MOD of Groni's table and just got a release permission for it (still not ready to be released though). Should go nicely with the new backglass!

 

Sorry for OT but here's screenshot of the WIP anyway

Just fired this table up with the new backglass. Its pretty sweet even though it doesnt have pop bumpers (ermm what??). Anyways if you have an LEDwiz hooked up with a knocker you maybe in for a surprise . For some reason the knocker is programed to S21 (right flasher) when it should be S7. So my knocker was firing rapidly during gameplay until I fixed it. It was kind of cool though, sounded like machine gun fire.

 

That mod looks awesome teppotee !

As I have already posted on the download page I have a Shadow in decent condition. The plastic left of the Sanctum is mostly missing, but I can provide some pictures and video clips if needed.

I updated the backglass with the authentic bulb locations and flasher codes, so no more guessing, this should be as close to the original as possible. Thanks to Sir Cheddar for providing videos of the illuminated backbox with and without the backglass and the flasher test video.

 

Please let me know if there is anything else to change or correct.
