Premium flip lock problems

Working OK now, not sure what the issue was..possible user error

Quoted from SkyKing2301:

My son hadn't tried the new code yet so we just played and I had a monster game -- got thru all 5 encounters on first ball, played 4th of July for the first time, a couple bounty multiballs, jaws mb 1 and 2, two rounds of rescue multiball...insane.
Oh yeah and I definitely heard a t-rex in their at some point, don't remember what triggered it.

2.4b? WTF???? WELL DONE.

Do you need to hit the action button to use gear once collected or does it automatically apply the perk if you shoot a shot associated with that piece of gear?

Same, it didn't work but seems fine now. I'm not sure what happened.

Black mirror vs regular mirror blades for Jaws Prem? I'm at a loss to make this call. I imagine either one would be awesome, but I have no hands-on experience other than with standard color graphic art blades. Is this a purely personal preference, or is there more to it -- like certain aesthetic or play attributes -- for one over the other?

Forgive me if I’m simply having a moment of density, but looking at the playfield indicators above the gear, there are indicators for rescue, 4th of July, and search. From what I can tell 4oJ is the new mode from the new code, rescue is rescue multiball, but what’s “search”? I know there’s “night search” multiball but that’s a fish finder mode… am I crazy or is it something not in the code yet?

Don't believe that's in the code yet. Still more to come. Excited to see how the implement "playing as the shark"

Absolutely, me too. There is obviously a bunch more to come.

There are just several instances of the words “search” and “rescue” used, so I wanted to make sure I wasn’t flat missing something.

I think you’re done with search when you complete the fish finder modes and play that mini wizard. Rescue is completed when you play rescue MB. Could be wrong though.

Based on the position of the lights, I'm guessing Search will be another mini-wizard mode to be added in a future update, and Great White will be the final wizard mode.

Yes. Sounds like search and Great White are to come. Rescue is getting to rescue MB.

In one of the livestreams, Elizabeth said that the mode where you play as the shark will be one of the menu-accessible challenge modes, much like the standalone Shark Hunter video challenge mode.

Quoted from Apollo18:

JAWS is awesome. Loaded with Fun, innovative Mechs, cool light effects, and a killer new layout with exciting shots and ball movements.
Why are people even discussing an overpriced glamour pin that’s a boring box of lights called EJ here in the JAWS thread ?
Anyone here felt the need to go over to the EJ thread and try pushing JAWS on the 12 people in that thread?
LMAO exactly.
So why are people here trying to justify their $15k JJP box of lights with 4 shots and a piano here in the Stern JAWS thread ?
LMAO
The 12 people that bought their “fun” EJ pins for their wives should just enjoy discussing it amongst themselves in

Will second this. Haven't had an issue on mine but my buddies been having issues for a while and decided yesterday it didn't want to move anymore. We dug into after our league and it's definitely the gearbox. Something is in there causing it to lock up. All the other piece including the motor all worked fine.

Is the fin backer pushed into the slot? This happened to me when I dropped the playfield. That motor would’nt budge!

#3667 17 days ago

Stern got me with "Shark" I am probably one of the biggest suckers for Shark themes out there. Collecting Fossil Shark Teeth, Fishing, Diving and just straight up Mega Jaws fan. Though I was a naysayer / skeptic at first after seeing low res images and sticker shock on LE's sent me scurrying away. Then I got to play this game and they got me. I'll probably finely be able to part ways with my nice BSD as JAWS can be just as brutal.

I've pretty much got my game set to Factory pitch adjustments and still find that ORCA shot to be slightly challenging but that's okay.

Anyhow - wondering if the "Reel" bushing replacement is worth it?

Man I love this pin… but I’ve never had a machine that has so many balls go up the left inlane and directly to the outlane!

Im perfectly level at 6.75 and am a nudging fool (very friendly tilt because of this)…just curious if that is other’s experience?

You mean when you're shatzing up the left inlane and it bounces up and over to the left outlane?

Quoted from Animal:

They should be sized already (I uploaded at full resolution), but everyone’s printer is different. I usually print with 5x7 glossy photo paper at 100% and trim the excess.

I’d print a paper black and white first and make sure it’s sized right. Once you have it down, switch to photo paper and color. Shouldn’t take too long.

I changed the flipper bats to white, then used Titan light blue on most of the bottom of the playfield.

Just installed the bushing kit and disc replacement kit from 1956PINHEAD for my LE. These upgrades are game changers; shots are so smooth, reliable and satisfying now. Makes the flow even better, don’t sleep on this upgrade.

Have you been able to dial in your main reel shot with this? I also did the replacement but a clean shot rockets through there so fast it hits too far above the mini flipper lane and rockets down the middle. If I have a slower shot through it goes to the mini flipper lane but I’ve gotten way too many drains now with this reel replacement that I’m debating switching back. I cannot move that reel guide rail any further to the left.

That’s weird. Mine is the exact opposite. Still hits mini flipper lane but has reduced the amount of sdtm that I would get from the factory. The upper also seems to play way more consistent.

Been reading and can’t tell from conflicting reports. Is flip lock busted with the new code (0.88)?

I am on a pro and every time I hit it I just use up my life ring for nothing… am I missing something, is anyone aware of how to qualify for fliplock (I feel like I used to get a call out when it was ready too)?

Settings can adjust flip lock to either a tap or a long press. They changed default for it from one to the other, so maybe that's your struggle. Check the settings and change it to the type you prefer.

Flip lock doesnt work on new code. Elizabeth the coder confirmed it on Don’t Panic Flips stream the other day and they are aware of the issue.
I went through every shark multi ball and celebration, jaws multi ball, and night search multi ball after the new code and no flip lock for the pro version. Sucks hope they fix that soon

That's good to know. I though Elizabeth was supposed to be off JAWS and onto another project mid April. Did she happen to mention that her time helping out on JAWS was extended?

Quoted from acep51:

Linked to Post 3689(Elizabeth's Flip lock doesn't work on new code.) -What is recommended, keep 0.87 or update to 0.88 on premium until Stern updates this problem????

1) there is no issue on the Premium code
2) there will be an update for the Pro shortly
3) recommend against rolling back versions (you did not suggest that, but stating for others) as there is no guarantee that settings (audits, adjustments, etc) will be correct. Rolling back software versions in not recommended nor supported
