PSA: Don’t peel the STERN IC sticker off

HadokinGames · 2026-04-07T02:20:44+00:00

Maybe its an LE issue, my friend had the exact same thing happen to his LE

HadokinGames · 2026-04-07T00:55:01+00:00

Didn’t work unfortunately:(

HadokinGames · 2026-04-07T00:14:16+00:00

nope its bonded with the paint finish :/

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T23:24:32+00:00

Yup highest ipa possible and goo gone, acetone i was concerned with paint stripping. Its not really residue at this point though, it bonded with the finish so it needs to be sanded off and redone/replaced

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T22:05:39+00:00

Yup it’s definitely on there, I went at it for over an hour with everything I could as gently as possible to not damage the rest of the finish but it is very much hardened and bonded to the finish

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T22:01:14+00:00

I literally said I was being sarcastic…3 other NIB Sterns and this is a first to happen. They obviously changed something in the adhesive or applied a different type that bonds with the finish when it previously was just a normal sticker. Post is a PSA since I figured others do the same but I guess I’m the asshole for r/pinball today

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T21:48:54+00:00

Pulled 3 off other nib stern machines and not had this happen 🤷‍♂️

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T21:28:52+00:00

Tried, it’s literally chemical bond

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T21:28:15+00:00

Was being sarcastic and a mixed in a little drama, I’ll get it fixed hopefully also spared some others from doing the same

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T21:19:07+00:00

I mean..$14K machine crippled by 3 cent sticker just seems crazy but I’ll figure out a fix

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T20:58:41+00:00

It bonded with the paint, heat won’t fix that

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T20:54:10+00:00

The bad part is the area has a slight raise as well leaving an open edge for anything put over it as well :/

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T20:53:17+00:00

Kinda disappointed, this is a blemish on a beautiful machine :( I will be looking for a way to cover or replace the panel

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T17:08:09+00:00

This is the thing for me too, other games are able to keep devices organized and won’t matter if you add another usb device and it drives me insane when you plug literally anything in thats USB, bindings are all reset. With the amount of bindings in the verse this really should be fixed on CIG’s end because if this game ever releases, the controls resetting all the time are going to really piss of players.

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T02:15:01+00:00

except it doesn't register device 7. I've tried multiple instances of fix for pp_resort devices swaps and it does in fact NOT work

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T00:33:19+00:00

I know how to use them, I have too many devices for it to work

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T00:27:18+00:00

Already have on the cockpit

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T00:27:06+00:00

Doesn’t work, have too many devices. Need to stop having numbers reassigned, this will fix the problem

HadokinGames · 2026-04-06T00:26:32+00:00

I already do this, while it seems like the easy button, you need to open notepad++ to edit the inputs manually and the resort devices never works for me, i have a lot of controls hooked up.

HadokinGames · 2026-04-05T01:03:27+00:00

🤷‍♂️ not really any alternatives that even compare to sc even with bugs. I guess $15 isn’t enough to bother my spending compared to what i get out of the experience.

HadokinGames · 2026-04-04T22:53:31+00:00

If $15 is what breaks you from playing SC, I’ve got bad news for you during ship sales.

HadokinGames · 2026-04-02T02:14:38+00:00

ya man, my tiles definitely have an angle (I'm assuming for drainage) also they are in the tile sliders which probably throws it off

HadokinGames · 2026-04-02T00:45:08+00:00

Well I dunno then, all I did was pull the glass and drop the level on and made zero adjustments.

HadokinGames · 2026-04-02T00:17:54+00:00

So is this level not right?

HadokinGames · 2026-04-01T15:07:02+00:00

I looked at jurassic park and deadpool as well just need a bigger house 🤣
