Medieval Madness Remake (MMR) > MMR Support [MMR Members Only]

MMR insert text is thin and transparent

<< < (5/22) > >>

I think the big problem is that on earlier runs of MMR this problem did not exist but on later runs it does. So what changed to give the inconsistency between these batches. If it were on every MMR out there I can understand the argument of it just being that way but it is not. Inconsistency between 2 runs of the same part/product=manufacturing defect

Post  #61 on this page shows the issue on the new PF run and post #70 shows how much darker the lettering on the inserts are on the earlier run (#292) so it's clearly a difference in batches

Rick-  what is CGCs response on this issue? Do they recognize it is one?

No, that is the problem, post #61 is a strange picture in that you cannot see any art around the playfield, so the exposure is off relative to other pictures, that is why this more difficult as cannot see an 'apples to apples' to see what might be going on.


I've passed the threads over to CGC and to Stern and they are very aware of it, and Stern factory replied to me over the weekend that they are looking at this to see if it's something they are now able to detect (assuming it's a difference), and putting in steps to identify any playfield (dark, under light) issues. I'm sure all Stern's games are testing in daylight/light, which probably is why it's not been seen by them.

 Good to hear, I agree that it is hard to see the issue when the insert lights are not on however I can duplicate the issue by shining my cell phone flashlight at the insert.   That being said post number 70 on that page is clearly lit with  solid text  when I get home this evening I can take a natural light picture of my insert lit and not lit  as well as it lit by a flashlight to show different variables in the lighting  and transparency. I will also do my best to reach out to customers with lower production numbers and see if I can get a few really clear pictures for comparison sake.  On a positive note the machine is a blast and can't get enough of it I just want to thank you Rick for bringing this game to production and wish both you and CGC the best of luck with all remakes going forward :)
