Revenge From Mars Opto Expansion Upgrade (For 6-Ball Trough & Physical Ball Locking)
To work with our ongoing RFM software updates, we spent some time developing a way to expand the trough functionality of the game so that it could be expanded to 6 balls. This means that by installing this simple hardware mod and by running the latest software upgrade your RFM game will automatically detect it is now a 6 ball game (2 extra trough balls needed!). This also automatically increases the ball counts on some multiball modes and the maximum add-a-ball count in various game modes & features. The board & kit now also fully supports physical ball locking (when used with v2.6 software & above) meaning that balls will be help in the locking mechanism for multiball, then kicked out together at the start. Full player independant support is alos included. Play the game how the designers originally intended! The kit comes with all parts needed to upgrade the game including the extra wms opto board parts and wiring. Some soldering experience is required for this kit, so if you are in doubt please seek help from a friend.

This board is a drop in replacement for the problematic waterfall lamp effects board for Williams Whitewater. Often the original board is either missing, or non functioning and burned up. We have developed a completely original replacement with many improvements over the original including proper enable and disable lighting in sync with the playfield. No more locking on the topper lamps during boot up or during non related test modes. A range of bulbs are also usable with this board meaning you arent stuck with the obsolete and expensive ones present originally. Main features are:
• Proper Lamp control & Sync. Lamps are off at boot just like the GI and no longer lock in during test modes.
• Various lamp output and voltage options. More cost effective 12v bulbs are fully compatible, along with original 14v bulbs.

• Individual lamp switching using darlington drivers
• Led status lights for all input voltages, 5v logic, 12v and lamp power
• Fully plate through parts
• Custom blue PCB for custom 'water rapids' match
We have developed a way to power the rise of 5v/12v electronic mods for pinball without putting unnecessary load onto the ageing WPC/WPC-95 driver board's 12v power circuit. The board is fed from a separate isolated 12v power supply rated at 5A max which can either be plugged in the games switched line input or separately, so no more driver board mod load issues. Also the board has power output leds, fuse protection, short circuit protection and 5v output option. The output connectors follow the Williams created WPC 4 pin 12v/5v layout standard. The fuse included with the board will be 4A. Can also be used to offload the power requirents for ColorDMD screens and panels.
Pinball Accessory Controller (PAC) - Control mods and add-ons
The PAC board is designed to control a 5v-12v device from a range of inputs, DC or AC and be activated for an adjustable amount of time (via an onboard pot) from a single ground pulse. The ground pulse can be taken from any drive in the game you like. Originally developed as a shaker controller board for Williams and Stern titles, this is the second generation of this board and has been improved to assist with the control of many 3rd party add ons in an easy and factory way. Main features are:
• Wide input voltage for powering and feeding most 5-12v mods including std pinball ac & dc voltages for example 16vac, 20vdc, 12vdc
• AC voltage inputs can be single or full wave (1 or 2 wires)
• Adjustable mod operation from a single pulse signal. Any standard pinball driver.
• Extra ground anchor for ease of installation and simplification of wiring changes.
• Independently fused to 2.5A
• High current mosfet switching
• Led status lights for input voltage and mod operation (output load)
• Fully plate through parts
The ZX Spectrum was my favourite thing in the whole world when i was 8. It's what led me into a world of software and hardware design. Every since i first got a rubber keyed 48k, i always thought one day i'll make my own, never really thinking that it would be possible. However with my lifetime of 8-bit pinball hardware repair knowledge always expanding and with me developing my own range of replacement cpu and sound board hardware for various pinball systems over the last few years the thought reappeared in my mind and now didn't feel to far away. I wanted to create a 128k pcb board as i love the AY-8912 music so much. This chip is used in arcade games to from the same era and has such a cool sound. Also some of my favourite games from years gone by had extra features for the 128 like renegade. The new boards feature:
• Reduced chip count and power consumption
• Reduced custom chip usage
• Fully spectrum 128k compatible
• 8 pages of 16k ram 128k total
• High quality picture - RGB scart socket with proper tv identification capability.
• Standard female 21 pin socket for use with stock fully wired scart cables
• Built in kempston joystick port
• Built in IDE 40 pin connection
• Uses the 128k ULA IC - Ferranti 7K010E/Amstrad 40056
• Full set of test pads
• Power leds
• Low power 5v regulator
• Single 12v supply power in
• Modern reset chip and on board reset button
• AY-8912 sound generator on board for retro 80s music
• AY-8912 expansion connector for 3rd party dev
• Sound line in for Tape loading or loading wav files
• Sound line out for connection to amps and playing music
• Fully compatible card extension port
• Full plate through design, no SMD
• Designed and assembled in UK
Super Bright Double LED Flasher Board (Replacement for Stern Part No: 520-5289-00)
This board is a drop in replacement for the rather prone to failing and hard to find Stern 520-5289-00 high brightness double LED flasher board that is found in Indiana Jones. It provides excellenet effects on various features and is something that is fully integrated in my custom game rewrite. This board is a complete re-design of the concept using using newly sourced modern parts, bigger better LEDs and less SMD stuff where at all possible! I am a plate through fan, as per all my other board redesigns.
Simple plug and play. myPinballs built this board to improve the operation of their own pinball games. Designed by pinball addicts for pinball fans!
This board can also be used for other custom game projects and is buildable for low or high signal operation.
Currently when you buy an lcd monitor and a CGA to VGA adapter card you need to fashion a sync adapter cable or buy a 3rd party sync adapter which is added to the cabling externally. I decided to design a replacement for the PCI CGA riser card. The benefit here is that the extra sync conversion can be done internally to the computer case and then a regular VGA cable can be attached from the modified output to the CGA cards video input. Also, I have added some dip switches so that it can be used in original mode to as a direct replacement for the original. I have fixed many games where this riser card is burnt out. (Most likely due to ageing monitors, or people connecting the wrong things to the output)

Now taking Pre-orders for the first run of my Custom Pinball Controller board set. About a year ago i started work on a life long ambition of mine: to build a fully featured pinball control system for early electronic Bally and Stern games with the goal in being able to produce a board set and software framework for other like minded people to modify and create new games from old playfields. I also wanted to be able to create new rules and sounds for a game i made back in the college days some 25 years ago.
I developed a double board set, 1 controller board and 1 driver board, that are designed to work together, and replace all other bally boards except the power section on the old power driver board. I wanted to create a board set that would work together and include additional options on the boards so that people could add extra features to games should they wish, but also be a direct plug in to the games original wiring. The main features of the board set are: Control Original Segment Displays, or use low cost serial Led displays, Control Original Switch Matrix, Control Original 16 Drivers plus Solenoid expanders, Control Original 64 non-matrixed lamps, Additional 16 mosfet drivers for flashers, motors, magnets etc, Additional RGB Lamp Control for extra lamps, Large SD card sound/music storage capabilities, Multiple Channel Sound with background music, Sound line out for connection to external amps/audio setups.
The hardware is one side of the project, but the software framework is the other. I have been working on creating a pinball library framework which people can use to get their own project off the game in conjunction with this hardware. The framework is made up classes for all the major pinball items, so lamps, switches, drivers, displays and sounds. The game itself then has various other files including feature modes and base modes to make the game playable. I have based my design concepts on the work of other more complex pinball frameworks, such as pyprocgame. This is the framework that i use for my rewrites of Indiana Jones and Whirlwind. Without the ideas from this software i wouldn't be here.
The framework is all written using the arduino code language and C++. I am making sure that you can still use the standard arduino ide to modify the files to create your own game from. The framework is very modular and I'm very happy with it how it has progressed.
If you are using the MPF framework and your own I/O controller (P-ROC or FAST or OPP etc) then you can still use segment displays. Yes we teamed up with the MPF guys and wrote a framework extension for inclusion in the MPF main Framework. Therefore you can utilise the segment control section from this project in other hardware designs. This is also how we helped Scott Danesi realise his TNA Pinball goal to have Segment Displays included in the game.
