I got this  reply from Steve Ritchie

I am impressed he responds so quickly


Hi Rich,

Thanks for the kind words.  I am very glad you are happy with your machine.  Lyman will publish rules for the game when he is finished with the code, which will probably be a couple months from now.  You may find that Pinball News has them all before Lyman does, but I am not sure they have anything for the LE's and Premiums.

I know that many things in the game do not "work" yet but they will when the code is done.  Your game isn't broken!  It needs code to make the things that you mention work.  Lyman is working as fast as he can to get the code written, but AC/DC has been like making 2 games at once for both of us.  The LE has so much more than the Pro, and management wanted the Pros to be built first.

Your blue train LED should come on when you make the left ramp shot.  If it doesn't, check to see if all the connections are good.  There is a connector for the train on the bottom of the playfield.

I started a topper, but I am not sure they would let me finish and build it on my own, but maybe...Please be patient.   More iterations of code will be issued soon.

Thanks

Steve Ritchie

Nice email so hopefully apron flashers and train LED work with more code and my train connector is fine

Got it home, now just cant get it of the Hilux.Got to wait for someone to come home. Frustrated ^&^ :D :D :D :D


NICE

Thanks Mark

Got it home after its been at sitting at the depo for two days as was trying to pick it up with the wrong con note number #@#.Could of been playing it on Monday picked it up Thursday.
Couldn't get it off the ute on Thursday, so just had to look at it for a couple of hours and drink untill someone came home.

Finely got to play it last night and yes, i am inpressed.Been holding off playing the pro as didn't want to spoil the experience playing the bible for the first time and all i can say is WOW.The wife evens likes it which is even better because she doesnt no their is another machine coming as well %.%.This machine will be one of the better stern for sure and a lot better than the last couple i got.

One happy customer and thanks to PSPA ^^^

No faults yet, and cant find any scratches and dents, and it came with a manual.I hope all the other trouble that some people are having with their machines gets sorted.Great game indeed. ^^^ ^^^

REPORT FOR PRO OWNERS

After installing Stern's 2nd gamecode update (version 1.5), I can advise after playing a few dozen games that the machine is EVEN BETTER again than it was after the first gamecode update (1,25 to 1.4).
The audio has heaps more sounds everywhere during gameplay, but espescially after losing a ball when u scores are tallied. Heaps n heaps of extra really large n detailed dot matrix annimations.

Overall, a much better experience, and Steve Ritchie says there will be even more gamecode updates to come. Give the gamecode 1.5 version an upload cause its worth it in every way.  ^^^

Played the BIBLE on site at Sonix today. Great game! The pro did absolutely nothing for me but the LE was awesome, and i assume that is the case with all of them. BIBLE, LTBR and Premium.

The sound and lightshow had me rocking along with it, Found the ramps were nice and easy to hit and i enjoyed the lower playfield as a distraction. The bell and cannon were great also.

Tron LE (my personal favorite game) has got a reputation of having the best lightshow of any pinball, I think it may now have some competition. Choosing the song at the start looks absolutely amazing with the different colour LED's changing with every song.

I had no bias with this machine as i like AC/DC but i am not a huge fan. I have been following this from the start and it was never a machine i thought i would buy as the theme was not for me. After playing one i wish i could afford one as it was great (although a Tron LE would be first) and i would be happy with a premium as i believe it has the exact same features just not the bling, plus i like the premium backglass the best.

Plus how great are Steve Richie's taunts! "Thank you, Bye Bye" cracked me up at the end of the game.

To everyone that bought one i want to say i wish i was you! Enjoy your machines guys, Feel free to invite me round anytime.  ^^^

 and almost 10 000 views

We might have more videos and more photos to come from other owners hopefully.  

This AC/DC post shld reach 10,000 views and hopefully become a record for AP.  More to contribute yet. Just wait til I launch the AC/DC naked ladies calender with the Gold Coast models.  &&  ^^^

I would buy a acdc except for the fact that I am sane and not prone to peer pressure.
+ the fact it is pretty lame for a pin imo.

I am maybe abit biast but I've played most modern stern games and I reckon AC/DC ticks all the boxes it's fast fun great sound awesome theme with the best flow by far! Most people who play it love it as well so to me money well spent and at no time have I had second thoughts
