Since the 80's all pinball manufacturers have sought licenses by default and used originals as a "B-theme" if the license falls through. There's never been a better time for pinball. Additionally several new companies (Jersey Jack, Spooky, Pinball Brothers, etc) have emerged designing and manufacturing new machines, none of them the market power of Stern, but they are bringing a lot of interesting new ideas and super fun games in their own right. I'm not sure if sales have reached Addams Family level yet as I don't think Stern publishes units sold, but I'm sure they are within spitting distance.

Over the last 5-6 years they've switched to full video displays, and a culmination of deeper rules and more creative and dense playfield layouts being created by luminary new designers such as Keith Elwin (the Michael Jordan of competitive pinball).

Stern found a new stride with a series of games with deeper rules and more strategic play with layers of much more complexity and stacking of multipliers such that top players can achieve scores that would take hours or even days of grinding (eg. In the early 2010s there started a resurgence of pinball both with hobbyists and competitive play. This was the state of the world in 2009 when the article was written, so it's understandable they didn't know what was coming. Sales were not high during this time, but they were surviving. However after that, Stern remained, and the 2000s were kind of a wilderness era where they sort of picked up the torch of the DMD era, and developed their own modern style. They only released a couple of these games and they basically killed the company they were so bad. Williams created many of the most beloved games during this period through steadily declining sales which did hit a wall and they tried to generate new excitement with their "Pinball 2000" form factor where there was a screen inset under the glass instead of a DMD. Addams Family itself is roughly a dividing line to the DMD era (Dot-Matrix Display), which many players consider the golden era of pinball where game design also became more precise and more "flow" was added to the game as well as more sophisticated modes and rules. The article mostly talks about the SS era (Solid State, think 7-segment display scoreboard) which dipped a bit from the late 70s but ended in the late 80s early 90s. Pinball has gone through many eras, and it is true that Addams Family in 1992 was the high water mark, but there's an equivalent peak in late 70s for the EM (Electromechanical, think gas-station price cylinders scoreboard). Is there anyway to move these score displays? I couldn't find the right spot in the script (or, is this a pinmame thing?).This article is very misleading. Same with Bad Cats, scores are on the backglass, just not in the right spot. However, the score displays are higher than the score display showing on the backglass. On Black Knight for example, the scores are there and vertically they seem to be in the right spot. It seems the score display (is that what it's called?) is just a bit higher than it is supposed to be. The score display works perfectly, however it does not match the backglass. On the non- DMD tables, I use the script to get the scores to populate on the backglass. I have been able to find answers to most of my questions on the forums, but one question still has me puzzled.

I have a 2 monitor setup, I am using Visual Pinball software (haven't tried Future Pinball yet), and mainly using UVP for the backglasses.
This forum has been crucial in getting my cab up and running almost flawlessly.
Like a lot of people, there has been a learning curve and I have struggled with some of the setup. I am slowly downloading a few tables here and there to set up and play. I recently built a mini pincab (project thread to follow). To the table designers, software guys, and everyone else that are involved in this hobby.THANK YOU!
Pretty amazing that a community can come together and make something like this happen. From what I can tell, everything is done for the love of the hobby, not to get paid. I am somewhat new to this forum and I first want to say thank you to all of the hard work that has gone into this hobby.
