Psycho Cash Beast Redraw
By Bodie
In memory of Chris J. Wren
Thanks go to..
Wizard for MFME
Geddy & Bugs for their classic (used as a base for this)
Shortcuts included in the text file
This was redrawn from the flyer by me in 2008 and has sat on an old hard drive since, a case of me being disillusioned by the fact that the more elements i had to redraw i felt no closer to where it should be.
So i have decided to release it the way it was finished back then, probably a purists nightmare..
Take it for what it is..
Nick.
**Update**
Should be fixed now, knew i would cock it up.

Barcrest - Monty Python's Flying Circus - UHD
By slotsmagic
Here it is, I'm pretty happy with how it's come out. If anything is obviously wrong, let me know - I will update it if required!
Only doing a £15 version at the moment, I will consider the £5 version later.
NOTE - I designed this on my two gaming PCs, this is a UHD layout and does feature a fair few blended lamps so will potentially not run well on lower specced / older machines. I do apologise if that is the case!
Thanks to @Reg for graphical advice and hints, and @Boulderdash for playtesting - do note that I have done some work on this after testing and may have introduced new errors, so again, if you find issues, let me know

Big Brother
By Reg
I believe this may have been originally done by Andy Tutton, however that is pure speculation because of the strange wording around the outside. If he was around, I'd ask permission for a re-release but he has long left the scene so I am going to simply release for others.
What is the purpose of this, well to cut a long story short, I had to change a lot to put into my cabinet and there were things that I considered needed fixing just a little. You are going to need to assign your own shortcuts to the buttons here. I had a choice - create a "readme" file with the Room buttons in or simply say, please set your own shortcuts. I went for the setting your own shortcuts...

Overload - Barcrest
So here it is my first layout (well technically second as my first was Rich & Famous many many moons ago). Its been great fun to be able to do layouts again especially with the new tools in MFME. Lamping is so much easier nowadays compared to years ago! Decent photos were used for stitching together and the reels were recreated from scratch.
NAME: Overload
MANUFACTURER: Barcrest
CABINET: Genesis
SYSTEM: MPU 5
STAKE: 30p 85% £25 Jackpot
Thanks to the following for help with the layout:
@Wizard For the greatest emulator ever coded.
@Steveir For the classic layout which I used for the lamp numbers and configuration.
@infection For pointing me in the direction of the artwork
@BL4K For the YouTube video which I used many times for reference
@vectra666 For help with the overlays and testing
@slotsmagic For the reel images
@bungle For Lamping help and general guidance.
Finally thanks to the following for Beta testing and spotting some silly mistakes:

Spiker The Biker - £5, £15 and £25 4K DX
By slotsmagic
Here's a trio of Spiker The Biker layouts, made using my photos that I took at Skirlington Leisure Park. At least I think that's what it is called. It did have a retro arcade section but based on recent videos it looks like it's no longer running retro machines. Let that serve as a reminder to people - grab resources while you can, you never know if you'll see the machine again
Anyway - back on topic. Layouts are £5/10p (I'd suggest upping to 20p if you want a faster game), £15/30p (you can drop to 25p if you want a slower game) and £25/30p (again - you could run at 25p but I prefer the speed of 30p at the higher jackpot).
It's a brilliant machine in my opinion - I owned one years and years ago and still kick myself for selling it. Must be coming up to 20 years now since I owned it. For some reason it was never cloned. I'm sure others from the same era weren't either, but I don't get why it didn't perform that well. It's got a cracking sound package, decent art, interesting upgrade system, and quite a few 'hidden' things.
Maybe it didn't do very well as it's a bit predictable - but I used to feel very 'safe' playing it?
Hopefully the layouts are fully working with no issues - I've had a few lovely people - @Mort and @Boulderdash - cast their eyes over slightly earlier versions and they both picked a few issues up which I hope I've now corrected. Knowing me however I've probably introduced more issues as I've made those corrections. Fingers crossed I haven't!
Some of the suggestions made I have not implemented but I will definitely consider implementing some of the ideas on future layouts!
Thanks for @logopolis for providing a couple of different ROMsets for me - the £5 and £15 are running early ROMs (named : BIKE) - which is odd as I've only ever seen ROMs named SBTR before? The £25 layout runs the SBTR ROMs as the earlier ROMs aren't switchable for £25.
Thanks to Adam on Facebook - I think he might be a member but he's not made himself known on here. He sent me great photos of his decals, insisted it was no bother and he wanted to help. Got me a bit more motivated to complete this release as without those decals it would have been £5 only and the decals I originally had looked terrible!
Thanks to @Reg for the site. I'll still tag him even though the account is closed. Thanks to @Wizard as always for MFME and the last 20+ years.
Thanks to everyone else who puts up with me and my ridiculously off-tangent WIP threads, waffling posts like this one, and who downloads and plays this release.
Regrets? I built the layout on a tatty old 22" 1920x1080p display and only when I moved it up to my 65K 4K TV last night did I spot even more issues. From now on I will exclusively design on that screen, at 4K, from the off. Way, way easier to spot issues. Probably would have allowed me to get a more even result as well. Working on large art on a small screen at about 1/2 resolution makes no sense. In edit mode you can only see a teeny bit at a time
Enjoy what is left of your bank holiday - and if you find any issues do let me know! I'll swear, punch my monitor, and then fix them (in that order)
*NOTE* - I have unpacked the blended lamps, but this might be a bit hard for older / non-gaming PCs to run, especially during busy lamp cycles (jackpot sequence e.t.c.).
Runs fine on my old and new gaming machines at 1080p and 4K respectively. If needs be I can release a fix with no blended lamps for those who need it. Will see what the feedback is like first.

King Kebab (Barcrest) £25/30p/86%
By No1Stoney
Here we have one of my favourite machines of all time, King Kebab. This time set to £25 Jackpot which I think is the best jackpot for this machine.
Its taken ages to get the multi-lamps working in the kebab stack but I think I've done them OK as previous layouts only had 2 colours working due to old emulator constraints.
I've always wanted to create a more up-to-date version of this machine and I hope I've done it justice.
I hope you enjoy playing this machine as much as I did back in the day and I hope it works OK for everyone.
Another shot at blended lamps, I hope they are OK, and I also hope they don't slow down the layout for anyone too much as I cannot tell on my PC.
Thanks to everyone for their support, @spa's Google drive for the flyer & @Johnnyafc who I believe did the previous £15 DX from which I used for reference.
Enjoy

Psycho Cash Beast Club
By Reg
Firstly, I must apologise about the quality of this release. I am still working through old layouts and I came across this one and considered that it was of very low quality and not to the quality of some of my previous work. The trouble with this was the flyer may have well been a mirror it was that glossy and it was a pure pain in the arse to do.
Rather than delete it, I figured I'd share this so you can choose to keep or delete it!

Rio Grande £1000
By woodsy
thanks to wizard always..
thanks to @JamieGTR for providing me in situ hi res images and many many more of my little requests were accommodated also... thanks bud
thanks to @Clo06 who got the pesky meters running for me, a simple fix i imagine but when you don't know there's always clo to help..
against jamie's wishes i've left the garage background in place as i like to think its more realistic to the viewer. i did ponder on whether to do some side art for the gamble wheel art to be enlarged and also to allow for the meters to be in view during gameplay but i've been offline for ages and tbh i have been delaying this for long enough.
the nudge font is not the same and is a sympathetic attempt to match it as best i could, happy to allow any bored fml heads with spare time to reproduce and improve.
thanks to the previous dx/classic designers who had a £500 version in the legacy section with which i was able to find lamp numbers and test etc.
small changes made to existing reel bands to improve the resolution on the wild and rio grande symbols.. imho i think the reels i made may have a few off pixel placements but it may also be my eyesight!!
please feel free to send any mistakes that need improving as usual i will eventually do what i can to make them better.
i have another glorious wip in the making with thanks to another user, it's not far off but i'm doing more health things that are taking me away from the screen and mfme i adore.
as always best wishes to you all..

£15/£25 CODFATHER DX
By woodsy
Thanks wizard for this passion of mine.
Thanks to various layout designers including, @Tommy c whose reels and layout i have used to find lamp numbers and guidance.
I'm thankful to the person who made the symbols so much better than the original options available, unsure who that was but i've used them from various layouts here and there and also a big up to any reel creators out there... Getting them in line, making sure they're the same size, across the 3 reels is not a simple task... i've done my best.
there are 3 options. the £15 has a happy and unhappy ram, you might like to do it yourself, the £25 is happy and 4 reds to the good so enjoy or ram clear it to start from the beginning..
there is a issue when it gives hints on the reels due to the big fish not being connected to the game it stutters a bit but doesn't effect gameplay in anyway.
after watching a video of this WHICH IS COMEDY GOLD BY THE WAY, it is lamped differently than i have done it but bugger it this looks fine hahah
feedback welcomed and appreciated when it's positive haha

Las Vegas Strip £8 token & £10 cash
By woodsy
thanks to wizard for the amazing mfme. It's crazy!!
thanks to @vectra666 @No1Stoney @spa @baz1379 @Dean @marie2003 and many others who bit by bit have made the jigsaw work to a releasable standard imo.
thanks to @Road Hog Mad for sourcing new images semi h-r that i cut out and stitched into several other bits and bobs to make a layout.
there are two version's £8 token jp and £10 cash jp both 20p play and set at 86%
i have had the biggest struggle so far with this game, honestly the most stressful layout of the lot that i've done. But i hope it's been worth it, it's the name trail that proved incredibly difficult to get right..
hope you enjoy the blast from the pier's past.

Strike It Lucky

Not the best DX, but the base resources were not very good and you can only work with source material. However this is an ideal platform for somebody to make a better version of this DX if they have good source and materials.

Club Hyper Viper £100-10p / £200- dual stake Dx's
By vectra666
Slivering up next is this popular themed fruit machine, of which they're still releasing new versions to this day. Hyper Viper the Club edition, based on snakes and ladders or adders n ladders, they're all the same..
Thanks Goto
The provider of the £100 real machine images/flyer used for decal button changes
@Ploggy for the very old classic used as a template for the dx, the classic was made way back in 2003, maybe one of the first classic's made!
@Tommy c for the dice reel from viva las vegas
also Thanks to @WonkySausagefor sending me the "unlocked" classic and help with the prize checkboxes
@fruitsnappa test mode info
Shortcuts listed within the notes on each
the £200 dual stake does give a repeat chance on the cashpot, which by the looks of things will take a million quid to max, there is yes/no lamps but these appear to not light up on the repeat chance, also the majority of lamps are in their correct postions but also a few aren't
Anyways, Enjoy and Happy Gaming!!!
