Been way too long between work on this, but finally on top of work and other stuff, so pressing on.

Let there be light!!!!!

Amazing thread, missed it first time around. Great work, you must be very pleased with your efforts so far. After watching the video, I really hope that one day this game gets built for all to purchase.

Working on the wiring loom now, spend a couple of hours over the weekend extracting the wiring information from the software using pinmame which was handy.  Just about everything needed to know is there (although if the switches and solenoids are anything to go by, there may be the odd error given this was still in development). Got all of the feature lamps sorted. The GI (every one of which are individually controlled on Capcom) took a bit of guesswork, but the implementation of the GI is vital to this game, as there is a change of normal white to everything red for Raid Multiball which I think is very important. I saw it work once in pinmame (for some reason it has never worked again) and I think the effect will be excellent.

Lamp Matrix A just about done, getting keen to see if I have got these wires around the right way!

Almost 100% "out of the box" for matrix A - half a dozen dead lamps (I use old ones that were in the sockets) and one missed connection. Pretty chuffed!

Now onto Matrix B.......
