You are not allowed to view links. Register or LoginI can see the benefit of installing the diffuser regardless of the ink issue. It disperses light better in the inserts and has a more "original" look in comparison to the led hotspot that occurs without one. It doesn't necessarily change the tone of the insert or the ink but makes them more legible for sure and has more of a incandescent feel while maintaining enough brightness from the led.  :)

Isn't there supposed to be a setting in the software to change the insert lights to be dimmer and simulate the appearance of incandescent bulbs? And wasn't it hyped that there are 3 individual LED per insert, and if one goes out the other 2 will brighten and compensate? With all of that hardware and apparent control over things why is this thing needed at all, why not just give folks a brightness control in software? They are providing infinite variability on each individual coil power in the game, this would seem to be easy to do.

If you feel that your machine needs the diffuser as a warranty claim just call your distro. If not but you want one anyway or would like a replacement down the line at least they are being made available through PPS.  :)

Maybe they need to rethink this new LED system then?  I put LED's in my other games from the '90's and have no readability issues at all.

glasairpilot:
I have no problem paying $30 for a diffuser if necessary.  I am more concerned about the lack of production of the machine itself.  Little problems like diffusers can be dealt with later since they have no real impact on game play or reliability.  Not having the machine is a real bummer.

TaylorVA:
There will supposedly be a setting to change the brightness of the LEDS, of course it was also stated that all new games would get the diffusers so....

PPS:
Here is what I have from CGC:


- CGC put these on a few games, but after that no longer does - as some people do not want them. Diffusers are not installed on any new games nor will they.
- If you have an issue that you feel is warranty then you go directly to CGC to deal with it, certainly can enlist your reseller for help.
- Otherwise PPS has diffuser kits for sale, or you can try to get your reseller to provide them to you
