I think PacDude has it set to always trigger the top switches (scoring a hit) on every ball -- doing that disables any ball save Addams Family had.

I have it set the way the real machine is. The ball save on the real thing only works if you slightly overshoot the thing saucer and it rolls down the right orbit and goes down the drain without touching anything. I went to a lot of bother to make sure that ball save does work. If I disable any of the other switches to get the ball save to work for overshooting all the way around the loop, then it will break the loops (or if I did a timer work-around it wouldn't be accurate to the real thing anyway). Addams Family's "ballsaver" wasn't really a "normal" ball saver like other tables had.

I don't normally read this board (I just noticed it when I was reading up on the CPS2 issue that showed up on a news site), so don't expect regular replies here. I read the Shiva pinball boards regularly though.
