Old Capcom Pinball Zip Passwords |
---|
There were 2 old Capcom pinball zip passwords. The first one "PinbalLGamERomS" (do not use the quotes) was for regular software. For redemption pinballs use "RedemptioNPinbalLGamERomS" as the password. Redemption zip files usually had the letter "R" as the last letter of the file name. (i.e. ABV1_5R.ZIP) |

Free replacement Lamp Advice | |
Please Note that Capcom Pinball's have an incandescent light bulb warming feature. While it is recommended to always use the recommended incandescent light bulbs for flashers, controled lamps, and G.I lamps. The lamp warming feature does not work well with LED's, since they react ALOT faster than incandescent lamps, thus they can show multiplexing flicker and the lamp warming pulses. You would need special LED lamps with circuits that hide all these features. | |
Danger: Here is supposed to be an example of an LED that hides incandescent warming circuits and flicker.
Capcom incandescent lamps are "#555 6.3V Wedge T 3/14 inch" Pinball Life: Ablaze Ghost Busters #555 Wedge Based Lamp Capcom incandescent Flashers are "#906 13V Wedge T-5" (did not find any) |
|
There are other LED's that hide incandescent warming circuits and/or flicker for other manufacturers too.
Anti-flicker: Pinballcenter: Noflix® example Anti-flicker: Pinballcenter: Noflix® Categories Anti-Flicker/warming: Pinball Life: Ablaze Ghost Busters #44/#47 Bayonet Based Lamp Both companies also supply just regular LED's that plug into all kinds of sockets, if you do not mind the warming / flicker. (they also supply incandescent lamps too, along with lots of other standard light bulb manufacturers/stores) |
