Episode#20 Big Budget Virtual Pinball Cabinet Tutorial Series!
In this episode, I show you how to install a big real pinball shaker motor with two different ways to control the shaker motor speed. I will show you how to setup the CSD motor controller board and how to setup a PWM control using Arnoz's Walter board and MOS8 boards! You get to pick which one you wanna do! These methods will allow you to turn down the shaker motor so it feels exactly how you want! As always, I also add all of the Way of the Wrench extras you guys have grown to love so you have a perfectly running vpin in the easiest format to understand! What more could you ask for???
