Cavey's AC/DC Pro   or  Cavey's Gilligans etc...   (title dependant)   (99.99 percent of games allow custom messages, even some older games).

I like to set the Tournament mode on any new Stern title cause it adds alot more random DMD annimations etc and once you set the tournament mode, u always want to make sure its turned on and functioning.

Some people like to set the date they bought the machine, and it can be done in custom message OR game identification settings.

On alot of models, they have really cool random advertisements already programmed in for other DMD pinball machines that were going to be released around the same time. This can espescially be seen on alot of Data East machines and Segas, as well as the typical "Say No to Drugs" messages.

On some/alot of the Sega/Data East pinnys from the 1990's, it even has alot of really clear and indepth annimations of other pinball titles that had been released, or were going to be released. If u watch a DMD long enough, u will always see something u havent noticed before. Sometimes hidden messages that were cheeky from the programmers. It always pays to make sure u have all the latest sound and game roms in your machines so u always get the latest of all the great programmed annimations and messages etc.It makes a huge difference alot of the time. Go to I.P.D.B for the latest roms. Real easy to get. I think DMD annimations are the coolest thing on a pinball machine. Like looking into its personality/brain.lol  %.%

Most Gottlieb/Capcom/Stern/Bally/Williams etc etc have some cool DMD annimation/message stuff as well. You just have enough DMD machines and be patient enough to sit long enough to notice all the really cool stuff.
