As of tonight my Discs of Tron is WORKING! Just gotta wait for the plastic and control panel to be made.. (hint hint Rick ;) hehe.. But I would figure I would send major shouts out to Bungy for tearing his machine down a bit to get me dimentions and pictures outta the wazoo.. As well as JeffC for his pictures... And Jedidentist for his links and pictures... With out you three my machine would be nothing more than a skeleton or someones firewood. But I will say if anyone needs help with pinball machines or PP / PP2's let me know I am very knowledgeable. I can do MCR repairs too I've got my fair share of MCR boards working on this DoT project *and any other projects I've worked on in the past*

All I can say is :"THANK YOU": If any of you are in Chicago to hit up the Pinball Expo Look me up we'll grab a beer!

cool man, whats up with the marquee?? looks weird on the right side

I have to find the piece for the front of that. The black box /w the pink trim. Thats a piece of plexi I had cut to protect the marquee I purchased until I can find that bezel...

Rich sells the front bezel. thisoldgame.com

And thank you, for bringing that UDOT back! That was a pretty large undertaking.
 
So glad you got it working man; great job.

In all honesty, I remember being skeptical when I read the first post. It seemed like you'd have to pull so much together to make a working machine. Seeing the pic of it up and running is really great.
 
Rich might have that bezel in plexi. You should e-mail him. So are you up for the squawk and talk box mod yet?

Lol... Yeah Rich is gonna let me know when he has it ready.. I guess he is also doing the control panel artwork too... so I figure I'd do it as a package all at once...

Believe it or not I have a Squawk and talk board. (its a pinball board) BUT here is the catch. I'm comparing schematics and so forth I will be destine to get it working. There isn't many changes and I will post progress on that one. Because anything is possiable if you reverse engineer it. Today I'm gonna try to burn some DoT Speech roms and drop them into the board I got running on a Mr. and Mrs. Pacman.. and see what it does. Its gotta do something... Who knows here is hoping and experementing! I will crack this nut!

I will say I pulled ALOT together to get it running. The CPU was the biggest challange. When I got that I emailed the guys I got that rom and he had that control panel collecting dust in a warehouse... It just shows anything is possiable. Just use your resources and great people who I would classifly as friends on here to make it possiable!

Congrats, must be a great feeling to finally have this running.

I can honestly say that my DOT gets the most gameplay out of all my games, I love the gameplay...
