Hmmm! I was thinking this myself whilst reading, but does a power down and reset, just keep the gameplay state in the ram anyway?

Ok perfect and thanks for the quick reply! Not sure if somebody still wants to look at the list as they appear to be very early legacy layouts and i dont know what im looking at not sure if some are rare and could be uploaded for everybody to enjoy as there is a lot of them

Hello Reg Warf You should download mfme 5.1 and covert the layouts to run in the latest version of mfme Here is the link.

I Have a collection of 1000's of layouts but they appear as non running on the latest mfme but work on older versions. is there a way to update/convert these old layouts to to work on the latest mfme? Not sure if any are rare, hard to find or lost. Maybe an admin or somebody a bit more knowledgeable want to take a look?

@Chopaholic time for you to start playing this again...

Well yes and no...... If you ask for a SP ID2 , they will still mail you the same link you just had. There is no choosing the SP ID2 from the website.... If you don't email them that it HAS to be ID2 , you receive a ID1.

Electrocoin have always had a UK address Head Office address Address: Electrocoin Building, 181 Park Avenue, London NW10 7XH, UK. Phone: +44 (0)20 8965 2055. Not sure if they would be helpful with the emulation scene but i have heard they are happy to help with private owners of there machines

It’s unlikely Electrocoin will offer any help with any security features of even their early machines. But you don’t have to ask permission, you are welcome to do what you want and if you wanted to enquire then it’s all good. I’m sure Electrocoin know all about emulation so you are hardly going to be putting mfme in jeopardy, or mame for that matter. It might actually be worth taking a look at what is emulated in mame, the gal chip might already be emulated but not implemented, also mfme can no longer be worked on as it was a closed source project, fme in mame is a lot more niche and a very slow burner. Rom hacking is a definitive candidate for the erratic partly running Electrocoins, but chuzzy kits run encrypted roms, chuzzy chip is unemulated. The kit plugs into the Phoenix board and does some magic on the roms and descrambles the code so that they run. I might be wrong with some of the chuzzy info here by the way. Even when unscrambled it could have further security like the gal chip. J

Thanks for info all of you and especially dad. I didn't think of pluto. I know some pluto 5's run in MFME some astras I have.

These look like Pluto 5 to me but I seem to recall wizard himself stating that ALL Fairgames roms won't run in the emulator.

Thanks for the replies, I actually emailed Ultimarc last night and they replied this morning so even though the website is a bit poor I can't fault the response time.

I would imagine these are Pluto 6 but worth a try in the emulator if anyone can get any life out of them. Fairgames.zip

Downloads section will have the latest version of MFME v20. You'll find the files needed to run the machines you want but you'll be limited to the amount of downloads. All in the FAQ.

Appreciate it!

Ta-daaa!

Could anyone point me in the right direction in regards to autoplay on MFME?\ New to emulation so just needed some guidance. Thanks!

Hi, I was seeing a lot of youtube activity lately on Chris217's channel plus Astrafruitmachinecollector (astraluke's) channel about these faregames machines. Which tech are these, what year did these come out and are they emulatable or not? I love the sounds on them as some are inspired by bellfruit's Bar 7s and electrocoin's Bar-X machines. They do have some cool sounds so was wondering about the tech they use and if they can be emulated. It's probably possible to get rom dumps out there as they're in loads of arcades. Also on youtube Reelistic slots plays these at some Mr P's and other arcades.

I just emailed them first and they link you to the correct one, ordering the wrong one will empty the hoppers.

If you don't want to install a note acceptor try this! Made this in about 10 minutes, you basically touch the button and it'll give you X10 £1 coins. I hope @Ploggy doesn't mind as it was his layout I edited https://youtube.com/shorts/bj4Pkv2elZI?feature=share X - CHANGE MACHINE 1p £1 01%.zip

Hey guys as the title says I'm interested in the fruit bar front-end but I'm at a total loss as to where to find it. Could somebody please point me in the right direction? Cheers!

I do value your opinion, it's why I made the post in the first place so that I could get everyone's feelings on whether or not I should ask them or not, to help us with the security chip problem to emulate the games. However, I hardly think this site or FME is great or a new secret to them, and other manufacturers and different techs of amusement gaming machines. out there emulated on this site and others. I mean it's not like MAME is a big secret either for video games is it?. I think it only becomes a problem when people cross the line and start zipping hundreds of layouts they have downloaded over the years and selling them on eBay, or maybe making FME working payout cabinets and using them and installing them, for financial and business gain in arcades, which frankly the odds of that happening (Cabinets wise) I mean, is zero. I for one have certainly never seen a 'payout ready' note accepting multi game FME cabinet in an arcade or bingo hall, let alone a pub. I would not mention that we have other games emulated with Electro coin tech on the site. Being as there are ROM sets posted on sites online anyway, I'm fairly sure they know sites like this exist. I'm just disappointed that other than a somwhat minimalistic few, showing interest in the thread, there has been very little response, and the excitement about it, just seems frankly proper flat too; in respect of maybe potentially taking this and FME further and getting others opinions about asking Electro coin if we can please emulate £15.00, £25.00 Bar-X, xxx' £5 or xxx £10.00 and Big Bar 7 with the extra nudges and again on £25.00 Jackpot. I just think it would be a really fresh vibe for the scene if it happened. As reiterated, all Electro coin can do is say no, but I'd have to know exactly what I would be asking for and how that needs to be implemented into the layout or emulator so you don't get the streak problem and the symbols reading incorrectly producing a win. Just my own opinion and not being ungrateful here, that seemingly at present, members are happy just to see and play recycled old layouts that have been done before, but have been polished for MFME 20.1. But when it comes to getting something new and exciting, like back when Golden Game and Party Time could actually be emulated but using a top box instead of just the bottom reels, everyone was buzzing at that not? This is what I'm getting at. LIKE I SAID ELECTRO COIN CAN JUST SAY NO! If we don't try we shall never know and therefore then the scene could be sure it WILL just be a shut down, going nowhere, not happening brick wall. £10, £15, £25 Bar=X and Super Big 7 would be awesome, especially a layout the Rio cabinet ones with Super Big 7 giving the extra 3 nudges at random. Personally I hate the concept ROMS. The MAB ones are okay, but it's still not the games I have mentioned above. Personally I'd like to see the original layouts without any kit adjustments added. I'm not going to ask Electro coin anything without getting a proper vote and approval from other members but most importantly the site moderators. Ps! big shout and respect to @Vectra666 for taking an interest and the research he has done up to now, it's nice that some share my enthusiasm. Thanks for reading
