Future of AA (Please Read)
It's been over a year and a half since "upgrading" to Vbulletin 5 and to say its been a disappointment is a understatement partly due to it feeling like a downgrade in some area's and missing a lot of features other forum software has standard and partly due to some people struggling with the software especially attachments, I also feel a lot of features have been left unfinished like the Calendar.
I went with VB5 over other forum software at the time because I expected the migration to be smooth....how wrong was I. I spent the first week from 6am to 10pm trying to address issues and even longer getting it to where it is now. I could have spent that time migrating to another forum platform.
I'm looking to moving AA to Invision Community or Xenforo however leaning heavily towards Invision due to its standard features. The end goal is to have a simplified user friendly experience.

Vale Yee Fong - AA users Rocky2 and founder of NZ Pincade. We lost a great mate.
I am absolutely gutted to pass on the sad news that one of the great workers and doers and best all-round blokes of the pinball community, Yee Fong, lost his long battle with cancer earlier today.
Yee was known to AA as Rocky2 and was the driving force behind New Zealand Pincade for a decade and a half. He worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make NZ Pincade the international success that it is, an event enjoyed by pinball friends from NZ, Australia, USA, Canada, France, Sweden, the list goes on. Yee was the sort of bloke who turns up to a pinball event like the Australian Pinball Expo or the Barn Meet a week early and works alongside the organizers to help make it a success. He worked on his own time and never asked for pay, except perhaps in the form a beer or two which most of us were happy to share with him. Yee seldom asked for much but often gave of himself.
To those who know him, we know that we have lost a friend the like of which is impossible to...

Announcement: Western Australia set to have its very own Pinball Festival
Hi folks!
We’d like to share some exciting news with you all…
Western Australia is set to have its very own Pinball Festival 😊
With Western Australia starting to ease restrictions from tomorrow, we thought what better time to announce plans for a pinball festival over here in the West.
The West Coast Pinball Festival is a community event that will aim to help increase the overall awareness of pinball in Western Australia, and with any luck help grow the pinball community; while also serving as a means to help support some of the local small businesses following the economic impacts of Covid-19.
Dates: Fri, 18 Sept - Sun, 20 Sept
Location: The Old Pickle Factory, West Perth
We'd like to take this opportunity to thank the following festival partners who have already joined us in support of the event...
- Stern Pinball
- Kids Just Wanna Have Fun Amusements
- Marco Specialties

Reply to More Sf2 dramasby djsheepJack your 5v so it’s reading 5v on the JAMMA edge.
Touching the volume won’t break the board.
It’s good you’ve narrowed down the fault to the A board. As you’ve probably read these are prone to just randomly failing. Womble is right that it’s probably either the RAM or A Custom at this point.-

Reply to More Sf2 dramasby brentos82Ok I have some updates. Board one has been problem solved. Mask ROM 5 and 11 are screwy. I've replaced them with the 5 and 11 from game 2 and we have a working A , B and C combo. I've now taken that working B and C combo and tried it with board A ( the one that glitched after volume change ). It still has the graphics glitch and now no sound effects/announcer /hadouken etc only background music . So I'm thinking I messed something up by touching the volume ?...

Final Scores ...
Never played before in the MGL, this game turned out to be as difficult as many others in this tournament. Being a very rare title, it was a good nomination for all gamers to "try and work this one out". Some managed to do very well, where a quarter of a million plus is very good news. Well played to the 9 gamers who managed to handle the "Horror Story" (the title of the game released in Japan). John McAllister scored 1.84 million points for an outstanding 2nd place. He also helped the winner to set up the game on his machine.
Congratulations to Shahbaz Sadiq for winning Game 6, with a superb score of 2,848,800 points. That's a masterclass performance. Excellent play!
Elevator Action, Amidar (STERN) and Tapper are all turned on and ready to be played. Please try your best on these titles, as it takes several years, if not longer, for them to be played again....-

by thejudgeFinished installing the 10 pin plug this morning.
Next I then started to work on the cabinet.
First problem was that I couldn't get the lockdown bar off. I mucked around with that thing for bloody ages and finally managed to get it off. The receiver in quite rusted and hardly moves, it will be going into a rust remover bath.
Second problem was that I could take the glass off. It would wiggle a little bit from side to side but I couldn't slide it out. Once again I finally managed to get it off. It looks like the rubber glass stop at the top of the glass had fused with the glass and it just wouldn't let go.
I have now removed the front door, receiver and all the associated parts which will all have to be de-rusted.
I also removed everything from the playfield and now it looks like this.

Here's all the important info that you will need to know:- Please register your entry for the Masters at the desk on arrival. We will do a 'roll call' before we start, but will make it easier to confirm if you register on arrival.
- Machines will be available for "official practice" between 8am-9am for Brisbane Masters competitors ONLY. Machines will again be switched off at 9am. There will be NO further warm up on any machine after this time.
- We plan to kick off by 9.30am (or after tournament briefing ends). Please do not be late, as we will not wait for you.
- Masks MUST be worn while within the venue at all times due to current restrictions in place. You are however now permitted to eat and drink whilst standing inside the venue.
- The will be 7 rounds of 3 games for qualifying, which will likely take anywhere between 10-12 hours to get through. At this stage, there is not likely

Touching the volume won’t break the board.
It’s good you’ve narrowed down the fault to the A board. As you’ve probably read these are prone to just randomly failing. Womble is right that it’s probably either the RAM or A Custom at this point.-

Reply to More Sf2 dramasby WombleThis fault has nothing to do with grounding issues or where the video ground connects. All grounds are common on the vast majority of arcade boards, including these ones, by moving the video ground you are still connected to the same part of the circuit, just moving it slightly to the left.
It is possible, but highly unlikely to be related to a voltage level either, but that’s always the first thing to check, as borderline low voltage can cause odd effects.
I’d bet this is actually a RAM failure or damage to one of the mask ROMs. A failure to the A custom is always a concern on these too.
There’s no reason why adjusting the volume should cause damage, unless you were holding a static charge and gave the board a tickle when you reached in.-

Reply to More Sf2 dramasby brentos82Hi John . Thanks for that. Yes the ground from the power supply seems to be a very thick wire then it goes into a little box an comes out with thinner wire. I do also have a slight screen wobble going on. Any point in taking the video ground and moving it to pin 14? Would that have any effect? It looks like video ground is currently one of the ones on pin 28. Hoping to eliminate wiring issues before I proceed ....

Reply to More Sf2 dramasby jbtechHi, the main thing to double check would be to make sure the video ground to the monitor is connected to ground on the PCB so if it is not connected to pin 14 then it should be connected to pin 1, 2 or 28. If it is then it should be OK.
Pins 1 and 2 on both sides should all be connected to ground to share the current between all the contacts. It can be done with a single heavy gauge wire bridged to all 4 contacts or 4 lighter gauge wires, one for each or as per your photo, as long as they're all ground. Similarly +5V should connect to all four contacts, pins 3 and 4.
Pin 28 is also ground on the JAMMA PCB and control panel grounds are often connected to these pins, possibly also your video ground.
Pin 27 is defined as ground in JAMMA but some newer boards put controls (e.g. button 6) on these pins as an alternative to using a separate kick harness. Although it is probably ground on your PCB many harnesses leave it empty to avoid compatibility issues....-

Reply to Joysticks for Hankin 20"by prktkljokrIf its not letting you go left or right, you may need to test the inputs, just take off the coloured wires that correspond to the left and right movement of the joy stick ( I would say green and yellow by your pictures) then coin up a game, then touch the wires against the black wired terminals to see if you have movement, if so just replace the micro switches in the joystick https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/30402538...frcectupt=true
If this is not the problem then you need to check the jamma edge connector on the board to see if its seated properly.
If none of the above then you may have broken or rodent damaged wiring, you will need to trace it back to the connector.
Hope this helped
good luck-

Reply to More Sf2 dramasby brentos82Hey guys I'm just about to test with multi meter. Just before I proceed I've uploaded pics of the jamma harness. Does this look correct ? A few questions.. pins 1 and 2 have the 1 wire bridged across the 2 pins. Is there meant to be a seperate wire for each pin? Same for 3 and 4 with the 5v.
Pin 14 is empty (should be video ground according to diagram)
Pin 28 has two black ground wires and one on the component side. Pin 27 is empty.
I Must add last time this was used (before I bought it) it was running a Pandora and LCD screen. Is this something that I've overlooked?

To test at power supply : Black at ground , Red at 5v both on power supply while turned on.
To test at PCB edge connecter: plug game in and turn on. Black at pin 2 components side , Red at pin 3 components side ? Is there enough of the pins sticking out to do this or is jamma thing in the way?
To test at chips on the board: I'm lost here. Is it the 1st and last pins on the mask ROMs ? The first being to the left of the notch when looking from above?

I went with VB5 over other forum software at the time because I expected the migration to be smooth....how wrong was I. I spent the first week from 6am to 10pm trying to address issues and even longer getting it to where it is now. I could have spent that time migrating to another forum platform.

by brentos82Hi guys a few months ago I posted some pics of my Sf2 champion board with vertical glitch bars. I managed to fix it by swapping out the S92-5M rom and it fixed it. Last night I was attempting to use another working SF2 board and all went well for about 2 minutes until I attempted to turn the volume up and then everything went glitchy. Is it bad to adjust volume while the game is on ? Here are some pics. I'm going insane with these games 😭😭😭😭
any ideas ?
Could it be an external issue to do with storage or the wiring/power supply/screen setup? It just seems weird because
I had another cabinet with a different crt and I used these boards for a long time with no problems and the minute I pull them out of storage and put them in this new machine they get issues.
Any help appreciated...-

Thought I'd share a topper I have made for myself to compliment my TZ. All my other games have toppers so I thought I'd try my hand at this. It interacts with the timed modes in that the whole pyramid flashes but it still leaves room for minor changes to lighting and visuals addons etc for the future, but I'm happy with it at present. I can't seem to upload a short video of it, sorry. The blue led from the eye looks great btw, better than the photo shows...-

Hey guys I hope everyone is keeping safe during lockdown.
It’s been a while since I’ve posted so just thought I would share some pics of this fortune teller I’ve been working on.
It’s based off these animated fortune tellers sold in the US Target and Home Depot back in 2017/2018. I bought this on eBay at that time and it’s been sitting around since.
https://seasonalvisionslimited.fando...Fortune_Teller
The prop itself is pretty good but I wanted to put it in a proper cabinet.
So recently I picked up this Top Gun redemption cabinet from Lloyds for $200 which looked like a good candidate to house it.
Stripped the metallic vinyl
and patched up the holes
after that it was just a matter of wiring up the buttons and speaker and slapping on some woodgrain decals to make it look more old school.
I got Carson @...video, sharing, camera phone, video phone, free, upload-

by AxedBanditHi
I reckon I could work this out but wondered if the brains trust here might make this easier for me...
I have a lamp column on my Space Shuttle (Williams System 9) where the lamps are on all the time (Flashing very quickly). I have confirmed this directly at IJ18 and IJ19 on the main CPU board.
Any pointers appreciated.
Thanks

by darkjediSlowly clearing through a bunch of projects/things I've hoarded for far too long. Finally got these PowerBooks sorted - 1x fully working PB 190, along with a second partially working one. Rather than replicate the eBay listing, the rest of the info is over here: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/114902822409
If any AA members are keen, will do the lot for $200 +post

Welcome to the Visual Pinball Gaming League with VPGL 19 - Nudge and Tilt. This tournament is the 3rd of the year and part of the overall VPGL 2021 and all gamers worldwide are welcome to play. You can join in at any time and play.
Competition:
The player with the most points in this tournament will be the VPGL 19 champion. There will be 9 games played over 8 weeks, competing world wide on some of the most challenging and toughest pinball games of all time. 2 tables will be released at the start, then 1 table each week, with the final 2 tables released at the same time for the finale. Games are only open for 17 days each, so pinballer's must play their best in that time and post their scores before the game is closed. At the end of each VPGL, points will be accumulated for each gamer toward the Visual Pinball Championship of 2021 Scoreboard. The highest score after (the anticipated) four VPGL’s are completed will be the undisputed champion...-

Reply to Joysticks for Hankin 20"by thebluecarHi. Just found this thread but can't see any specific recommendations for joystick replacement. I have the same problem with a joystick that intermittently won't let me move left or right in Galaga. The joystick is approx 35mm diameter and the control box behind it is 65x97mm and the square part is 63x63mm. Hope someone can help.3 Photos
