Aerosmith New code 1.06 is out


Recommended Posts

V1.06.0 - September 6, 2018

=======================

 

- Added outlane sounds.

- Added speech effects to outlanes.

- Changed the criteria for when outlane speech is heard.

- Now Medley Multiball Wizard mode ends differently. If multiple balls are

still in play after making the final shot the flippers are momentarily

turned off. While the remaining balls are draining you are shown the total

points collected before returning you back to 1 ball play.

- Added Medley Multiball post final shot speech while the balls are draining.

- Increased score awards for Super Scoring.

- Fixed a bug where Super Lanes score awards were maxed out too early.

- The Aerosmith targets/rule is now available during the first

(non-Cranked Up) portion of the Same Old Song and Dance mode. Once the mode

is Cranked Up, and the Cranked Up targets are used to finish the Same Old

Song and Dance mode, the normal Aerosmith targets/rule is no longer

available until the mode is over.

- Now completing Same Old Song and Dance will also light the shot multipliers.

- Fixed the left scoop mode award lightshow (when the shot was lit solid) that

inadvertently flashed all the playfield lights for 1 frame.

- Added Super Lanes full playfield lightshow awards.

- Added Super Lanes completed lightshow.

- Fixed a bug where ejects/scoops/vuks would not wait for "Dude Looks like a Lady"

award's presentations to finish before kicking the ball back into play.

- Added a difficulty rule/adjustment to Medley Multiball, default = Hard. To

start Medley Multiball you must collect at least 1 award from every

mode/multiball. 3 Modes (Walk this Way, Back in the Saddle & Rats in the Cellar)

are marked as completed if you drain the ball while the mode is "Cranked Up".

At the start of Medley Multiball the game can decide to give you progress

towards these 3 modes that were auto completed. The "Easy" setting allows

the mode to be skipped during Medley Multiball, the "Hard" setting requires

the player to play this mode during Medley Multiball.

- All of the mode award full playfield lightshows have been reworked to remove

the "shot arrow" lamps, if necessary, from the award presentation. This was

done so that, upon making a shot, the resulting full playfield award

lightshow doesn't obstruct the remaining shots that are available. In turn,

this allows the player to quickly see what shots to aim for next.

- Reworked mode award lightshow presentations to be faster.

- Added more dynamic mode award lightshows for the right/left ramps

(when shot lamp arrows are Solid, CrankedUp, Super).

- Added an Elevator rule adjustment. The adjustment allows the drop target to

light an Elevator Lock, default = Yes.

- Added Jacky spotlights to the Toys in the Attic Multiball Start lightshow

presentation.

- Fixed a Last Child scoring bug where a blinking arrow award was scored the

same as a solid arrow award.

- Fixed a bug where, upon draining out of Elevator Multiball, the drop target

is raised too soon. This prevents any shots being awarded at the elevator

as Elevator Multiball transitions through its grace period. Now, the drop target

stays down and allows shots into the elevator until the grace period has expired.

- fixed a Sweet Emotion scoring bug where a blinking arrow award was scored the

same as a solid arrow award.

- Changed the rules for Sweet Emotion, i.e. an ALL shot centric mode. Make 12

shots to complete the Mode. The 6 "easiest" shots are available at mode start.

Once completed 6 more "difficult" shots are added.

- Added pluralized text to Hidden/Super skill shot display effects.

- Moved text to make it more readable in the display effect that appears after

you enter your initials.

- Added Elevator Lit as a Mystery award.

- Added Elevator 1, 2 Locked as a Mystery award.

- Added Mystery award lightshows for Elevator Lit, Elevator Locked.

- Added Mystery Audits for Elevator Lit.

- Added Mystery Audits for Elevator Floor Locked.

- Replaced the "Smart Missiles" mystery award display effect with

"Smart Missiles Lit" and "Smart Missiles Qualified" display effects.

"Smart Missiles Qualified" indicates that Smart Missiles were awarded but are

not yet available to be used, i.e. a mode/multiball is not active.

- Added VIP Pass as a Mystery award.

- Added Shot Multipliers Lit as a Mystery Award.

- Added mystery award lightshows for Special Lit, Extra Ball lit, Increase

Spinner Value, Increase Pop Bumper Value, Bonus X, Shot Multipliers Lit,

Smart Missiles Lit & VIP Pass lit. These lightshows dim the playfield lights

while blinking the lights of the award just given.

- Added Mystery Audits for VIP Pass.

- Added Mystery Audits for Shot Multipliers Lit.

- Improved flipper blowoff on Mystery display effects. Previously the display

effect could be killed/blown off by simultaneously pressing both flippers

buttons. Under this scenario the player didn't get a chance to see what

Mystery award was awarded. Now, instead of completely killing the display

effect, the game fast forwards to the portion of the display effect that

reveals the mystery award. Additionally, this newly revealed display effect

can also be blown off.

- Added a Medley Multiball Wizard Mode High Score Champion.

- Added adjustments to support Medley Multiball Wizard Mode High Score Champion

(default score threshold, type of award to give, # of awards to give.

- Added Medley Multiball Wizard Mode Champion to the attract mode.

- Added Medley Multiball Wizard Mode Champion to instant info.

- Added artwork for the Medley Multiball Champion Background display effects.

- Fixed a bug where Same Old Song and Dance progress towards Medley Multiball

wasn't saved properly. This was due to the rule change where a Cranked Up

arrow shot could advance 2 shots at once, i.e. one for the arrow/gallery award

which spots 1 duck target.

- added a Perfect Bonus rule/presentation (+200M) for starting Medley Multiball

with all the modes/multiballs already completed. The display effect appears

after all the Bonus Level awards have been presented. At the end Final Tour

Multiball is ready to start at the left scoop.

- Fixed a bug where the "Toys in the Attic" level during Medley Multiball

occurred twice and the "Back in the Saddle" level was missing. This occurred

because no shots were made while playing the Back in the Saddle mode. Upon

draining the mode was marked as completed and nothing was added to the

Medley Multiball level sequence.

- Added logic to the Same Old Song and Dance level of Medley Multiball to assist

with scoring neighboring standup targets that are difficult to hit.

- Love in an Elevator scoring has changed. Jackpots start at 500K and increase

by 25K. Elevator Jackpots start at 1M and increase by 1M for each floor visited,

i.e. 1st Floor Jackpot = 1M, 2nd Floor Jackpot = 2M, etc... Jackpot values

reset at the start of each multiball.

- Changed the rules for Medley Multiball, i.e. the first Wizard Mode. Previously

you would play through the 9 levels/songs in a set order,

i.e. level 1 = Same Old Song and Dance, level 2 = Toys in the Attic,

Level 3 = Love in an Elevator, etc... Now, the sequence/order through the 9

levels is determined by the order the modes were played throughout the game.

For instance, at game start, if you selected/played Walk this Way, then

Sweet Emotion, and then Last Child you would be presented those same songs/levels

as you progress through Medley Multiball.

- Added a Bonus Sequence scoring presentation/rule to the start of Medley Multiball

for modes already completed prior to starting Medley Multiball. Completing

1 mode is worth 10M, completing 2 modes is worth 10M+20M, etc...

- Now the player is no longer required to play a Medley Multiball level that was

already completed prior to starting Medley Multiball.

- Now completing a level during Medley Multiball advances the player's progress

towards Final Tour. For instance, if the Sweet Emotion level during

Medley Multiball is completed the player's Sweet Emotion progress towards

Final Tour is also completed.

- Medley Multiball levels are now easier to finish, i.e.

Last Child = 2 shots required to finish, shots are not extinguished.

Walk this Way = 4 shots required to finish, shots are not extinguished until the last shot.

Same Old Song and Dance = 9 target shots required to finish, shots are extinguished.

Sweet Emotion = 6 shots required to finish, shots are extinguished.

Dude Looks Like a Lady = 4 shots (1 scoop, 3 lanes) required to finish, shots are extinguished.

Back in the Saddle = 25 pop hits required to finish.

Rats in the Cellar = 25 spinner hits required to finish.

Toys in the Attic = 6 shots (toy box) required to finish, progress shown on 6 toy box inserts.

Love in an Elevator = 3 shots required to finish, shots are not extinguished.

- Raised the volume of the Medley Multiball award sound effect.

- Added a Bonus/Mode Completion Display Effect to the start of Medley Multiball.

- Fixed a bug where Medley Multiball could start prematurely if a mode shot

was made to the left scoop that ended that mode.

- Fixed a bug where Final Tour could start prematurely if a mode shot

(or Medley Multiball Super Jackpot) was made to the left scoop that ended that mode.

- changed the Medley Multiball ball save timer settings. Default = 40 seconds.

- changed the Final Tour ball save timer settings. Default = 40 seconds.

- Added rule progress (Loops Needed, Ramps Needed, etc..) to the Medley Multiball

background display effect.

- Added speech to the Bonus Sequence presentation at start of Medley Multiball.

- Changed the rules/scoring for Final Tour Multiball, i.e. the final Wizard Mode.

Now all 8 shots stay lit (until the final 8 shots) as you progress thru 24

cities. The first 8 cities are worth 10M each, the next 8 are worth 20M each,

and the last 8 are worth 30M each. Once all 24 cities have been collected

the left scoop is lit for a Super Jackpot worth 100M. All of these scores

can be increased via combos, shot multipliers and double scoring.

- Shot arrows change color during Final Tour to represent the progress/scoring

for each "band" of 8.

- Removed add-a-ball from Final Tour for completing a shot (shots are no longer extinguished).

- Now Final Tour Multiball Wizard mode ends differently. If multiple balls are

still in play after making the final (Super Jackpot) shot the flippers are

momentarily turned off. While the remaining balls are draining you are

shown the total points collected before returning you back to 1 ball play.

- Added Final Tour post Super Jackpot speech while the balls are draining.

- Added City Progress to the Final Tour background display effect.

- Added new artwork to the Final Tour Super Jackpot display effect.

- added Medley Multiball Completion Bonus art.

- Added time to the default Back in the Saddle timer, i.e. default = 50 seconds.

- Added floating score award display F/X to a Cranked Up Back in the Saddle

pop bumper hit.

- Added floating score awards to Super Pops (up to 9 at once). Each award is

associated with a pop bumper hit. Previously only 1 score award appeared in

the presence of multiple cows.

- Added flipper blowoff to the Rats in the Cellar mode start/award display effects.

- Increased the font size and slowed down the animation speed for the large

Rat score award to make it easier to read.

- changed the logic for large Rat Score awards to appear on the screen fully.

Previously, if the rat was near the edge of the screen and died when a shot

was made, the score award might appear partially off screen.

- Added flipper blowoff to the Back in the Saddle mode start/award display effects.

- Added flipper blowoff to the Dude looks like a Lady mode start/award display effects.

- Added flipper blowoff to the Last Child mode start/award display effects.

- Restructured when duck targets are reset during the start of Super Targets.

- Added flipper blowoff to Medley Multiball & Final Tour Multiball advance

display effects.

- Now the left scoop will retain a ball while the Medley Multiball advance

display effect is active.

- Fixed a problem with flipper blowoff where sometimes multiple screens would

be aborted/blown off due to flipper debounce logic.

- Changed the rules for Same Old Song and Dance, i.e. a target centric mode.

Now 12 shots are required to complete the mode. Shot arrows collect both

gallery awards and spot 1 duck target, i.e. advancing the rule by 2 shots.

- Added flipper blowoff to the Same Old Song and Dance mode start/award display effects.

- Changed the score value of the Same Old Song and Dance target awards.

- Added flipper blowoff to Sweet Emotion mode start/award display effects.

- Changed score awards for Solid/Blinking/CrankedUp shots during Walk this Way.

- Fixed a problem with Walk this Walk mode start flipper blowoff.

- Changed Super Targets award scores, i.e. targets score 1M+ based upon coins

collected during Same Old Song and Dance.

- Added time to the default Rats in the Cellar timer, i.e. default = 50 seconds.

- Added time to the default Sweet Emotion timer, i.e. default = 50 seconds.

- Added time to the default Same Old Song and Dance timer, i.e. default = 50 seconds.

- Changed the Rats in the Cellar score award display artwork making the text

easier to read, i.e. now awards are outlined with a brighter Orange color.

- Changed duck target score award coordinates and dynamically scale score award

text to insure display text doesn't overlap with neighboring score awards

and/or boarders.

- Changed how Toys in the Attic qualifies Medley Multiball, i.e. now you must

collect 1 award instead of starting multiball.

- Changed how Love in an Elevator qualifies Medley Multiball, i.e. now you must

collect 1 award instead of starting multiball.

- Moved the clown and wheel gallery score awards in Same Old Song and Dance to

be unobstructed by the Aerosmith logo.

- Now gallery targets in Same Old Song and Dance show score awards in

abbreviated format, i.e. 1M instead of 1000000.

- Changed gallery score awards font color (now it's Yellow) to match arrow shot colors.

- Added outlines to Gallery Target score awards during Same Old Song and Dance.

- Changed default Crank it Up settings, i.e. now Crank it Up is available at

game start instead of requiring a mode shot to be made.

- Added time to the default Walk this Way timer, i.e. default = 50 seconds.

- Added time to the default last Child Way timer, i.e. default = 50 seconds.

- Crank it Up no longer adds time as the default mode timers have already been

increased. Mystery is still available to add time to modes.

- Changed how Medley Multiball is qualified, i.e. now you must collect

1 mode/multiball award instead of starting a mode/multiball.

- Fixed a bug where a mode shot award display/sound/lamp effect was not being

shown if it completed a mode.

- Changed the rules for Last Child, i.e. an orbit centric mode. Now 7 shots

are available after Cranking Up the mode. The last 2 shots require both orbits

to be collected.

- Added flipper blowoff to Crank it Up display effects.

- Changed the rules for Walk this Way, i.e. a ramp centric mode . Now 7 shots

are available after Cranking Up the mode. Make 10 shots to complete the mode.

- added flipper blowoff to Walk this Way mode start/award display effects.

- Added Final Tour Wizard Mode Champion to Instant Info.

- Fixed Tournament Leaders attract mode display effect text, i.e. "Current Winners:"

text is replaced with "Tournament Leaders:".

- Fixed Tournament Winners/Leaders attract mode display effect initials text

that could sometimes exceed the width of the display now that the player can

enter up to 20 initials.

- Fixed Tournament "Top Scores Win" attract mode display effect text.

Previously it would display "Top 5 Scores Win Cash Prizes" regardless of how

many prizes were actually being awarded.

- Added Tournament Winners attract mode display effect title screen. Added

logic to determine if the text should read "Previous Winners" or "Current Winners"

based upon a tournament being active or not.

- Fixed Final Tour Champion attract mode text/position.

- Added the "$" symbol along with several other symbols that were missing from

the outline/embossed fonts.

- Changed the criteria for when mode select is available, i.e. now it is no

longer available after a Wizard Mode where there are multiple balls on the playfield.

- Added new Final Tour award sound F/X

- Added new Final Tour Super Jackpot award sound F/X

- Added speech to Medley Multiball Start

- Added flipper blowoff to Final Tour Multiball Start.

- Fixed a bug where the crowd cheering sound f/x was cut short during the Final Tour Super Jackpot.

- Fixed/optimized Final Tour Super Jackpot Ready lightshow.

- Added speech to Final Tour Multiball start.

- Added full playfield Final Tour award lightshows.

- Synced Final Tour start display/speech/shaker/lightshows.

- Optimized Final Tour Ready lightshow.

- Now balls are held in the left scoop during the Final Tour Super Jackpot presentation.

- Optimized Medley Multiball Ready lightshow.

- Now the Smart Button can collect Final Tour awards.

- Changed the criteria when Mystery awards an add-a-ball. Under normal

circumstances Mystery will try to award an add-a-ball if a multiball is active.

A problem occurs when Mystery and Medley/Final Wizard Mode start are both

awarded at the same time. The game would prematurely award a Mystery add-a-ball

and then start the "lit" Wizard Mode. In this case the player wouldn't want

an add-a-ball award yet since the multiball mode is just beginning with a 40

second ball saver. Now, the Mystery add-a-ball criteria has been changed to

make add-a-ball available later in the multiball.

- Extended timer's pause time during the hidden skill shot award.

- Added logic to pause timers when kicking a ball to the upper playfield.

- Added logic to pause timers during the hidden skill shot, i.e. it takes a

while for the ball to travel to the right eject via the hidden path and

mode timers could have timed down/off during this sequence.

- Added time to how long mode timers are paused when hitting Jacky in the Head

with a Toy/Ball.

- Fixed a delay problem where the game waited too long to kick the right eject

when hitting Jacky in the head with a Toy.

- Add sounds for hitting Jacky in the Head with a Toy.

- Added time to how long mode timers are paused when locking a ball and starting

multiball(s).

- Added Slam Tilt functionality to the game, i.e. for games that have a

Slam Tilt switch installed.

- Fixed a power up problem that occurs when the game tries to empty the toy box

of any balls. The toy box lid may close prematurely and restrict balls from

exiting the toy box. Now the lid is held open longer.

- Updated Jacky ball save timer logic to determine if the ball saver should

set/augment/ignore any existing ball savers or multiball savers.

- Added Jacky Ball Save logic for times when a ball drains upon hitting Jacky

in the head.

- Added a Jacky Ball Save Timer adjustment.

- Added a Hidden Skill shot rule, i.e. at ball start lightly plunge the ball

to enter the hidden path at the top right orbit.

- Added a Super Skill Shot, i.e. at ball start hold the left flipper in while

lightly plunging to light 1 of 3 Super Skill shots.

- Now, making a Hidden Skill Shot awards 1 Smart Missile.

- Now, making a Super Skill Shot awards 2 Smart Missiles.

- Changed Mystery criteria for awarding Smart Missiles.

- Added "Smart Missiles Qualified" logic, i.e. now you can collect Smart Missiles

during the game when the Smart Missiles are not available to be immediately used,

i.e. Modes/Multiball are not active.

- added Smart Missile award/limit adjustments.

- added logic to disable Smart Missiles during Toys Multiball countdown when

the smart button is used to abort multiball and lock more balls.

- Fixed a bug that occurs when there are balls missing from the game. Upon

locking a ball, if there were no more balls in the trough to serve a ball

back into play the game would dump out all of the balls from the toy box.

You would see this happen upon locking your 5th ball (in a game with 1 missing ball).

Now, the game tests to see if there are missing balls and instead, kicks the

ball into Jacky's head.

- Fixed a bug where, upon entering your initials, the game didn't inform you

of your position/rank. Instead, it just provided player info, # credits won

and score. Now it will also tell you if you are a Grand Champion or which

High Score position you earned.

- Fixed Smart Missiles lit display effect (it had no X/Y text coordinates and

the background video did not play).

- Fixed a problem when there are no balls in the trough to instantly serve the

right outlane ball save. If this happens the game will now wait for the ball

to arrive at the trough and serve it back into play.

- Fixed a problem when a ball drains while a mode's timer is paused at zero.

At the start of the next ball mode select should be available, but instead,

the game was restarting the mode with a full timer.

- Fixed a problem where several modes, upon draining, were marked as played

but were not available to be chosen again during mode select.

- Changed default volume to approx. 75db

- Fixed audit text that overlapped/exceeded screen boundaries.

- Added an audit to track multiple Toys in the Attic Multiball starts per game.

- Changed the toy box difficulty rules, default = Easy. To advance to multiball

you need to light/lock 3 balls in the toy box.

Easy = Light/Collect lock shots in any order.

Medium = Light/Collect lock shots in order, i.e. collecting a lock is required

before another lock can be lit.

Hard = Hit the toy box 2 times to light a lock, collect lock at right eject

in any order.

Extra Hard = Hit the toy box 2 times to light a lock, collect lock at right

eject in order, i.e. collecting a lock is required before

another lock can be lit.

- Added game logic and an adjustment to save progress during Toys in the Attic Multiball,

default is OFF.

- Points accumulated during Toys in the Attic Multiball for lock lit/awards

were not being added to the total tally, this has been corrected.

- Fixed text in the Toys in the Attic Double Jackpot display effect.

- Changed the debounce timing of the Right Eject. This was done to fix a

problem when the Right Eject switch was improperly adjusted. Balls shot into

and past the Right Eject would cause the switch to momentarily close/open.

The game would see this switch activity and, upon seeing that no ball was in

the right eject, perform a "Courteous" kick. Now, the game recognizes the

transient behavior of this switch scenario and waits for a true arrival.

- Fixed a bug where the Jacky multiball start countdown speech, i.e.

"multiball starting in 3..2..1" continued after multiball start was aborted.

- Added slingshot power adjustment.

- Changed default slingshot power.

- Added an adjustment for auto ball launch power.

- Fixed a bug with the credit knocker - it would knock 1 less time than it was supposed to.

- Added start game functionality to action button on the lock down bar.

- Added green light to lockdown button when it can start a game.

- Fixed a problem where mode select was still active after the player plunged

the ball and inadvertently switched the selected song upon pressing a flipper

button.

- Fixed bug report email address in readme.

- Fixed a lamp function that was not turning on the correct number of lamps.

This would occur during whole playfield lightshows.

- Fixed an issue where an X multiplier light would blink incorrectly when an

X multiplier was awarded.

- Fixed an issue where mode timers would display "zero" momentarily upon ball drain.

- Fixed an issue where balls were not ejecting out of the toy box during

game over if match was turned off.

- Added ticket dispenser to diagnostics menu.

- Fixed a problem where balls were not kicked out of the toy box if the Match

adjustment was set to OFF.

- Added LCD high score initial entry display screen.

- Added LCD Tournament display screens to replace default system dots.

- Fixed the custom message default text.

- Fixed an issue with custom message duplicating text.

- Removed old style dot matrix display effects that could appear in the attract mode

- Added emboss and outline to several attract mode display text boxes.

- Added LCD custom message.

- Added LCD screens to report tournament results.

- Replaced competition mode purple dots with LCD Aerosmith text and BG graphics.

 

- Added USA_13 Coinage 1/$1.00, 7/$5.00

- Update to nodeboard firmware v0.25.0

- Added adjustment to scale GI, Insert, and Flasher LED brightness, range

is 25% to 100%.

- Added adjustment to limit GI, Insert, and Flasher LED Max brightness, range

is 64 to 255.

- Enhanced center channel clarity.

- Added bass frequency filter selection options: 125Hz, 250Hz, and disabled.

- Added treble frequency filter selection options: 4kHz, 8kHz, and disabled.

- Added adjustments for backbox and cabinet speaker types to the service menu

UTIL->VOL. Supported speaker types are "8 OHM" and "4 OHM".

The amplifier power curve is appropriately adjusted for the selected speaker type.

- Added Maintenance Reboot support. The game will automatically reboot if it has

been on for more than 48 hours and has been idle for at least 15

minutes. A 15 second notification display will be presented and can be

postponed by pressing both flipper buttons, inserting a coin/bill, or starting a game.

- Updated AD_TILT_DEBOUNCE minimum value to 750ms to avoid overly conservative configurations.

- DIAG->NODE->COMM test would occasionally falsely report address collisions,

this has been corrected.

- Extend TIMED PLUNGER adjustment range to DISABLED or 1 - 300 seconds

- Correct minimum firing time for flipper coil when an EOS switch is inconsistent

or poorly gapped

- Improved LED refresh rate and blink consistency.

- Improved reporting of shorted General Illumination bulbs and sockets.
