Very nice !!!! Happy that my little mistake will be fixed soon !

By the way, I still found the original planet ring and EPROM, so you still want it ? (I have no idea why you would, or in fact anyone would.....the game is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better with the "mod" ring ....

By the way, this does look like a kind of weird version, I have never seen the eagle that had a flower growing out of his head...... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yeah, it's known as "the hippie dredd eagle" ... not so popular, because the flower does not fit in the dark Dredd theme as good as the original one, but the developers liked it, especially in the after work office hours. Anyway, I will post a pic after installation of course.

The mod ring is indeed a lot better than the original one. The gameplay too ... I can't imagine how stupid the multiball would be if the balls in the planet simply drop down on the playfield. Don't throw that ring away .. I take it, if you don't need it anymore. No need to send it though. Maybe a pickup on the next Eurocade  ;D

@muerto: wait till next weeks pics. I would bet my left kidney that you will not find out what that will be. ;)

Well, the factory ring didn't actually just drop the ball on the play field. What happened that the ball travelled (once "stored" in the slot)  "all the way" to the crane and it would pick it up and nicely drop it down.
The slots were only an "emergency" escape route for if the crane would fail.

The process would be repeated three times to get multi-ball....yawhn....

The only things I did on the crane was install a NOS cover (nice eh ?) and connect the connector which was loose for some weird reason (like a lot of them). It worked right away and it NEVER failed.

Can't believe Williams listened to that German distributer BITD.....
