    Ripped from the Tadao Yakuza manual

    "Millennium: For 2008 the Millennium series modified their rules slightly. It is now a 12 bps cap with a 6 pulls per second activation, and requires the 1-2-3 semi-auto shots like PSP mode before ramping can begin."

      Okay,..well the board has a fully programmable setting to allow the user to set the trigger pulls and trigger pulls per second before a ramping mode of fire is accessed.

      The other question I have is: What is millenium mode exactly? For example: NXL is full auto on the first trigger pull and hold,.. then once you release it,.. it stays to semi auto only.

        The new Millennium mode means that you have to have 3 'true semi' shots before ramping can kick in at 6bps, which jumps you up to 12 bps. There is a one second time out, which means that if you dont shoot for 1 second or more, you have to shoot the semi shots again.

        Do you think it will be possible to program the board for this setting?

          Then the answer is yes.

          You would set the "trigger pulls to ramp for a value of 3"
          You would set the "trigger pull rate to ramp for a value of 6bps"
          You would set the "Max Rate of Fire (MROF) to 12bps"

          Then you select the mode of fire based on the result of ramping you want: Which would be something like 3 round burst.

          I tried my Millenium mode on my e-mag today,.. and its basically 3 round burst with the parameters you speak of. They just gave it a name.

          I know its not per say "Millenium mode" but if a judge checked it,... it would be the same thing as far as the tourney officials were concerned. I think if you check the millenium rules,.. they dont say "Millenium mode",.. they break it down into the sections I listed above.

          Hope this helps!

              We (Chris and I) had to come across a new HES because the old one that is the stock AGD HES is no longer being made.

              We have found a much better part and Chris has already confirmed that it will work.

              I delayed him a few days on the new wire harnesses for the components (life got in the way) but he should have them by now and be testing them after the holidays (if he hasnt already done it before).

              We should be in the home stretch now,.... just making sure everything works before we offer it for sale.

                  Wow I have been thinking of xmod, but considering this I may hold off until this comes out.

                    yup, final final testing has went under way. pictures of final product should be posted in a week. would have been sooner, but the holidays have been slowing me down. And just to double confirm, a new much better H.E.S. has been found as a replacment to the original. And man fellows, if you think you have light trigger on your E/X/SFL's now...wait till you try this new H.E.S.. while testing it, i got it to the point of only having to have a "light blow" onto the trigger to make the marker fire. So if you want trigger sensitivity ..... looks like it has come.

                        Sure do.

                        Chris has finished the board that will be the testing one sent to me.

                        There was a problem with the Break Beam eyes, so he tested a set of ones he had and I sent him a set from Scenario Dreams to test as well.

                        As he has stated,.. we found a much better HES replacement for the current one.

                        Were still working on it,.....

                            Just wondering, is it possible to still use the screen from the original board instead of LEDs? At some point I would like to upgrade my emag and this board sounds very impressive. I just think it would be sweet if I could have blue break beam eyes and one of the blue screens Chris has made. Even if the screen isn't an option, I will be saving my pennies to pick up a board.

                              Chris asked me the same question about the UTB supporting the LED screens.

                              From what I was told,... we cant use them.

                              The other problem is the space. The installation of the UTB daughter board takes space we needs to save on.

                                as p8nt has stated, screens wont work. i have tried a few different style that I would have thought might have worked, but no good. unfortantly, screens deffintly cant make the leap. but trust me and P8nt when we say that you will like the new LED control setup. yes, it will take a few times working it to get use to it.....but once you do it a few times, it will be very natural to do.

                                but to keep everyone updatedon the board, i have a changed setup (minor changes) done with the design and have printed the test board. but i have been extreamly busy with college and finishing up a few other big things. but i WILL have this test board assembled BY THIS WEEKEND and will have it overnighted to p8nt for his final words (he gets the great job of being my test pig). if all stays well, then you guys will get to see and start buyin git begining of next week.

                                I truly apologize for the delay the boards have been having. but this goal time is set in stone and will be done. IT will be worth the wait/delays though....i just didnt want to release a new board that had any kind of issue.

                                -Chris
