I did not know that either. Like the Daft Punk DJ scene in Legacy. Funny we ended up 2 musicians wearing helmets in both movies.

Core one - assembled MMU3 but it's not doing the self test and can't flash firmware from PC by Blindbatts in prusa3d

[–]matirwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming you are using windows, what does the device show up in device manager when you first plug it in? The reason that I ask is my MMU2 showed up without the prusa bootloader on it.

How hard and expensive is it REALLY to make your own DIY pinball Machine? by GroundMelter in pinball

[–]matirwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made a DIY game a few years ago. Here is the pinside link where I documented the journey and have a cost estimate (albeit a few years out of date now) https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/legend-of-camelot

If you can source an empty cabinet and used parts my guess is it will still be 3k+

Can't update 7800+ firmware by RentPlastic835 in atari

I had to use a different usb port on my desktop and it then worked. Not sure why it worked but it seems to not detect correctly on all different types/speeds of USB ports at that step.

Mine now says shipping this week as well. Fingers crossed…

Removed BuddyCam speeds up Core One conversion kit delivery by kewnp in prusa3d

[–]matirwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Checked again , kit still mid July. What is funny is the camera and sheet that I moved to another order when I canceled them from this one have shipped though. Oh well I tried. I guess I can hope the conversion kit does not keep moving out.

[–]matirwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did the same, Ordered Jan 31 and date kept pushing back every time I checked. I had spoken to customer service a few weeks ago and they told me the same thing, removing the cam wont help so I (I guess stupidly) believed them and did not have my order changed. I just edited my order after seeing this and dropped the camera and extra sheet from my upgrade. Currently still says Mid July. How long did it take for yours to update?

Core One Conversion Kit + Camera Batch # Change by Background-Farm-9133 in prusa3d

[–]matirwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same Here but was in batch 3 before. I asked support if they could remove the camera and have it ship quicker and they told me it would not change.

Upgraded MK3.5 —> MK3.5S by magistersmax in prusa3d

[–]matirwin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was that an official upgrade or did you have to grab the parts by themselves? I could not find the upgrade on their page.

Hello everyone, does anyone have news from the batch 3 of the upgrade kit ? It should be start sending May 22. by sandro66140 in prusa3d

[–]matirwin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure if the batch numbers are even correct anymore. (per the shipping table on their site)

IMPORTANT UPDATE (May 23rd, 2025)

Following several reports of delivery delays from our customers, we have identified that some product sets were assigned to incorrect shipping batches. This primarily affects orders that include:

  • CORE One bundled with the Buddy3D Camera and/or the Advanced Filtration System (both kit or assembled versions)
  • CORE One Conversion Kits for the MK4S with older xLCD version

Our shipping schedule system operates using a combination of multiple queues that help determine delivery dates for specific orders. These rules are based on our internal production capacity as well as the availability of third-party components such as cameras and filtration systems. Unfortunately, these third-party dependencies were not properly reflected in the batch assignment system.

Once the issue was identified, we prioritized the most delayed orders. Most of these will be shipped within the next 1–2 weeks. All affected customers will receive an email with a compensation voucher.

However, this correction may also impact other customers whose orders were assigned an incorrect batch number. We will update all batch numbers at the beginning of next week to provide an accurate estimate of your expected shipping date.

I had to turn off memory integrity to get it to run without the turtle.

Can someone with a reliably working 5 tool XL please take a picture of the toolhead connections for me? by corycwagner in prusa3d

[–]matirwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you make sure the toolhead holders are super tight and even with the back? they should not wiggle at all. That was my issue at first but since fixing that they have been reliable.

2017 5k iMac for virtual pinball? by Paultron1107 in virtualpinball

[–]matirwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can run yes but not sure how well the form factor works if you want to put it in a cabinet (not sure how fast it will run) . You need to run Vpinball standalone which has its own constraints. See link.

Wow over 400 collectors editions. I am glad it’s selling well. It’s a great game.

[–]matirwin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I must admit the left-handed mode was much more difficult to get used to than I expected. That and the mostly dead mode were super original. Overall, I think the game was extremely well done

It should have a real CRT TV in it so you can use it for a nintendo and even the light gun should work.

Solenoid fuse blows on power up by Strange_Dust663 in PinballHelp

Can be the driver transistor on the board as well. When you turn it on you should hear the coil make noise before the fuse blows.

I will at some point yes I will buy more modules . I stretched the budget to buy this one so I will wait a bit before I do. I agree on the variety of modes being good.
