I have a Gottlieb Freddy Nightmare on Elm Street pinny and a Waterworld machine. The layout of the boards n playfield and everything the way it is under a Gottlieb on these two titles is engineered extremely well. The easy layout on the base of the playfield with fuse layout is a very smart idea i havent seen on any other manufacturers etc. Gottlieb put alot of thought into those designs. If u look under a Freddy pinny, you will see all the smart design features I mentioned etc.
Obviously these are later DMD machines but I was exceptionally happy n surprised at how easy they are to work on and have been absolute hassle free. Perhaps its the earlier Gottliebs that are a pain ? 

Also, the Waterworld machine will be getting Leds soon so I will report back on the end results with Leds etc.

that patch works on all WPC 89, WPC-S games.
apparently they changed the software for the lighting in WPC 95 machines and when you patch the earlier WPC Roms the patch one of things it does is patches the early WPC lighting code with the lighting code that is used in the wpc 95 lighting

Thanx Dann36, that should help a lot of people out, v1.4 seems to be the latest version there, guess it's the latest overall?
