14 hrs agoOliverExistsThis cab is just on its way out at this point, wouldn’t be surprised to see it abandoned fully soon.
6 months agoOliverExistsJust putting this here as a heads up, I wouldn’t recommend playing on the P2 pad right now as it can disconnect mid song, I’ve tested it with wild and some fulls, but any excessive force will cause it to shut off for a few seconds, so if you were planning to play with a friend, just do singles on the left side tbh.
9 months agoOliverExistsWent on Saturday, pads definitely feel better now, more sensitive, and the bars are also tightened on both sides.
10 months agoOliverExistsPads haven’t been this faulty in a long time, engineers are supposedly gonna have a look at them but I highly doubt any significant fixes will be made. 🙁
11 months agoOliverExistsQuite a few of the machines have been moved, and interior looks a lot better now, will slowly start to log all of these things.
1 year agoOliverExistsEverything about the cab now is a lot better than when you two used to play regularly, but yes the price is a bit much.
1 year agoDREADFALCON13£1 for two songs at the very least would be adequate.
1 year agoSmugbobIf only it had pricing that was in touch with reality
1 year agoOliverExistsNice to know this cab is getting a great reputation. Especially with it being in a Hollywood bowl.
1 year agoStaticFishAnother excellent condition SMX. Could do with being slightly louder and I could do with being back at 100% but I got months to go
1 year agoOliverExistsBars have been tightened, and both pads work. Lights are back on but the wires are inverted (?)
1 year agoOliverExistsBEWARE OF FLYING BALLS WHEN YOU GO TO PLAY SMX!
1 year agoOliverExistsIt’s also a few days after. BOTH PADS ARE WORKING!
1 year agoDREADFALCON13😩
1 year agoOliverExistsIt’s that time of the year again, THE PADS ARE DOWN!
1 year agoDREADFALCON13I've just checked, free play is over...
1 year agoOliverExistsIt’s unintentional but like they say, take advantage of it while it lasts.
1 year agoDREADFALCON13Oh that free play won't be for long. Take advantage while you can!
1 year agoSmugbobwhat do you mean the machine is on free play LOL i'm guessing unintentionally
1 year agoOliverExistsAll updates are back, both pads work, family filter is finally off and the machine was on free play. Well done holbowl!
1 year agoOliverExistsIt might even be finished now
1 year agoOliverExistsThey had to fit a new pc to the cab so everything had to download again
1 year agoSmugboblmfao
1 year agoOliverExistsSpoke with them and they said they’re trying to get a dedicab
1 year agoOliverExistsWe just got here and it’s running an old version from 2017
1 year agoSmugbobNo way p2 is STILL off
2 years agoOliverExistsI’ve played it on this machine so it’s still on there 👍
2 years agoSmugbobGrr that better not include Lemmings On The Run
2 years agoOliverExistsFor the filter it excludes song like Life Ride, We Got The Moves, Pump It, Rockslaves and half of the E-Rotic songs. Somehow Kinky Boots and Turn Me On are still enabled.
2 years agoSmugbobAlso it’ll never be worth going back regularly until they change the £1 for 1 song insanity, but that’s just my opinion
2 years agoSmugbobDid they really need to put the filter on though lol, what songs does that exclude
2 years agoOliverExistsIt’s been over a month now since the second pad was fixed and ever since it’s been working perfectly. There’s now a good reason to go back to this arcade with all the new content updates too.
2 years agoOliverExistsThat pad doesn’t last long at all.
2 years agoOliverExistsWent again today and tried Full+ with the p2 pad, it seems to be working as normal again. Very sensitive as well.
2 years agoSmugbobPain.
2 years agoDREADFALCON13This is just offensive at this point. I wish there was a StepmaniaX at Barnsley Bowl...
2 years agoOliverExistsWent again today and the second pad regularly disconnects mid song, the game freezes at random times, and as I was leaving, the pad completely disconnected. The redemption crap has much better maintainance than this machine!
2 years agoSmugbobHooray, they did the bare minimum!
2 years agoOliverExistsMy friend sent me a picture of the cabinet and both pads are working again.
2 years agoSmugbobNot since 12 days ago the last time I asked, I’ll ask again next time I go
2 years agoOliverExistsHas anybody contacted the staff about the second pad recently? If so what did they say?
2 years agoOliverExistsBefore it could connect back and did have the sensors on but now the panel lights are completely turned off.
2 years agoOliverExistsBefore it could connect back and did have the sensors on but now the panel lights are completely turned off.
2 years agoSmugbobCompletely off? Was it not already completely off?
2 years agoOliverExistsThe new update is on the machine already but now the p2 pad is completely off. Pretty sure that “new part” was used as an excuse for poor maintenance.
2 years agoOliverExistsIt’s a shame since the new content update should be releasing soon too.
2 years agoSmugbobYea I just went and it’s still dead - they’re waiting on a new part to fix it apparently but I’m not convinced lol
2 years agoOliverExistsIt’s now been 2 weeks since the p2 pad disconnected and they still haven’t done anything about it.
2 years agoOliverExistsOther than that the new update has been working fine too and the network hasn’t had any faults since that one in July.
2 years agoOliverExistsAt this point the p1 pad which was worse drops less inputs than the second one.
2 years agoDREADFALCON13Kids abusing the machine and the staff are paying no mind to it... =(
2 years agoSmugbobThe pads aren’t THAT bad, actually managed a 22 FC on them earlier lol
2 years agoOliverExistsOne of my friends played on the cabinet, and people were complaining about the volume, I went today and the volume is on a fair level.
2 years agoSmugbobOkay now it’s definitely as loud as it was before lmfao
2 years agoSmugbobA bit quieter than that I think
2 years agoOliverExistsIs it as loud as it was before?
2 years agoSmugbobSeems like they’ve turned the volume back up on the SMX
2 years agoOliverExistsI’ll get that changed now.
2 years agoDREADFALCON13Oh okay. Crisis averted.
2 years agoSmugbobNetwork’s back up, wifi issue just needed a reboot
2 years agoOliverExistsPlus one time me and a friend had to wait 6 minutes for someone to pick a song.
2 years agoOliverExistsSome people would always leave their scores on then you’d have to get past all the menus.
2 years agoSmugbobAlso a few others on the SMX discord have reported some server issues/ QR codes not reading so it could be related
2 years agoSmugbobWhy would you enable the timer tho it’s not like there’s queues of people lining up to play it lol
2 years agoOliverExistsAlso they let me in to the menu on Wednesday and the only thing they let me do was enable the timer and check the network. Either the network is down or something.
2 years agoOliverExistsI tried asking them and the June 2023 songs are on but the network or smx link won’t work. They said they would tell the manager. THEY COULD JUST GET INTO THE MACHINE AND LAUNCH THE UPDATER!
2 years agoDREADFALCON13Oh my god the staff don't know how to update it...
2 years agoSmugbobHave you tried turning the sensitivity to high on the options menu? That can help for registering inputs
2 years agoOliverExistsTurns out it was, but p1 is still not very sensitive.
2 years agoSmugbobIt SHOULD be an easy fix…..
2 years agoSmugbobThe connection came loose once before, I’m guessing it’s just happened again
2 years agoOliverExistsWell now the p2 pad isn’t working at all so maybe that’s what’s happening.
2 years agoDREADFALCON13Don't tell me kids are abusing the StepmaniaX thinking it's a play toy...
2 years agoOliverExistsCan’t remember but I’ll try to find it.
2 years agoSmugbobOh nice, what’s the @?
2 years agoSmugbobOh nice, what’s the @?
2 years agoOliverExistsOn twitter the person who is setting up the SMX was mentioning on how changes could be made to the prices and how many songs per credit.
2 years agoSmugbobYeah it is annoying, I believe they can be upped to 2 songs per £1 but it's the arcade's decision
2 years agoDREADFALCON13Ugh! £1 per song? It's not worth it if you can wait in the menus longer than the actual game! Make it 3 songs!
11 years agoDREADFALCON13Both games are no longer in this arcade.
