Starwars Vader Pachinko

[phlove]

Hello Guys,
i received my Satwars Darth Vader edition from Sankyo
I found this manual here , but its not for my machine
https://www.pachitalk.com/forums/loc...=6&linkid=1546
Maybe can someone help me out with the manual for my machine.
Now i got a couple of questions.
1. there is a ball release on the buttom where the balls fall out, did i understand it correctly that this balls m if u play in a parlor , are gone forever ?
2. there is a ball tray a little bit up where here and then some balls come out , there is a slider where i can release these balls into my own tray.

if you read point 1 and 2 i quite dont understand what causes some balls to go to the buttom and some balls to come out in the tray on the link it would be the M ( Lower ball tray )

there are 3 generation of Star Wars. That manual is for the first.
the second has a light sabre on one side with 3 R2 units along the bottom of the screen with animated charactors. the third has a multiple clear pathways and tubes.

If the machien hasn't been modified. Balls only go to the very bottom front tray if the top front tray is full, or the balls didn't get shot hard enough to make it to the playing field. then when they fall back down they go to the bottom tray to prevent jams.

In newer parlours. If you drain balls out from the bottom front tray. they go to an automatic counter and have credits added back to your smart card. In older parlours or home use. You drain the balls out in to a tray. then in parlour, an assitant will take all your trays to a counting machine and print out a reciept so you can collect your winnings. Remember on big winning streaks. the machien will payout over 10,000 balls, if your lucky over 20,000

hi thanks for your answer , i got the libsabre version.
can u tell me maybe where the volumen control is ?

[Drunkenclam]

i think the Crystalla frame has a standard 3 postition slide switch on the rear somewhere.

i found it ... but it is
loud
very loud
wake the dead...

one more thing i pressed the reset button but the machine didnt reset it stays in the game at the same spot.
i also pressed it for 3 sec..

also in the front there a a little display ( without numbers )
and some round little light they lit when i play is this some kind of replay storage ?

[Drunkenclam]

Reset buttons are vague. Some machines have more than one. One for the frame and one for the cel. I believe they are meant to clear the memory of held during power up.

Front display is probably for the parlour ball loan system. So unless you have a Daverob dongle. It will remain unused.

It's normal for machines to bank 4 or 8 start pocket reel spins. Normally indicated by leds or graphics on screen. That might be it.

great thanks , do you got a manual ?
can you maybe tell me what the little display on the mid left means and the lightning points ?

[Peteybob]

Actually I did find guide book put out by Sankyo that I have for this game. Perhaps a moderator can help me in uploading it as I cannot currently see and open what files are here on this site.

I am not sure as to your other question. Is it about lights on the playfeild or to the far left edge of the cell?

if you take your second picture it is the thwo orange lights and the four red lights and right there ther should also be a display.
the guide book would be realy nice maybe you can link it

[Peteybob]

I've never sorted out what those lights are all about on modern machines. Are they meant for the player to follow stats of some kind or the parlor to debug things?

I'll see what can get done about the booklet over time.
