[QUOTE="George Klepacz, post: 65255, member: 13"] I tried VP before and simply didn't like the way it looked. There are a lot of amazing recreations, but I can't handle the flat look. Well I updated my machine with the latest ROMs and it is quite different than when I first bought it. I had prototype software in there originally. I went from version P3, which I can't even find documentation on, to the Home ROMs, which should be L4 with profanity thrown in. Even with the swearing turned off, there are many new phrases and sound effects added, lots of new music, and new versions of the music that I had at first. The lights are more animated and there are new DMD animations as well. The scoring has changed and the multiball modes have different patterns than at first. I wasn't even aware that you could change out ROM and sound chips, but I'm glad I found out. I was enjoying the table before, but could tell it was incomplete. No sounds at the Match sequence, no Game Over music, just various things seemed off. Very happy with this game. I also bought a lift table from Harbor Freight which was an awesome purchase because I can lift the machine and move it around easily now. In fact, when I tested the lift out for the first time I noticed something else about DM, the legs were on backwards! When I put the table together when I bought it, I put the legs that had the leveling screws all the way out in the back like the previous owner did. I thought something was off when I had to stack weights under the legs to get the right playfield pitch, but never took a good look. With the table lifted I noticed that the front legs were longer and easily switched the pairs and properly leveled the table without the need for weights. And with the front end lower to the ground, it's more comfortable to play. It's no wonder the previous owner sold this machine, with the legs switched the game probably played really slow. That, mixed with prototype ROMs, the table was probably too boring for him. Plays great for me! Ha! [/QUOTE]
