  1. I’d say fruit emu has a much larger archive of mfme layouts.  Lots are pre new mfme but I still often download the odd layout or two.  The search is better over there, (unless I’m doing something wrong here) though it doesn’t recognise 3 letter words, which is probably a search default to be fair.

  2. Quite the opposite, the machine will come back factory fresh as if it’s never been played before.

    Not all ram reset mean a ready machine.  I’ve played plenty that will reset and already be at its target %.

    I remember when we used to click the Cloud999, NNWW etc, later revisions would ram reset but would start at closer to target percentage making it all a bit pointless.

  3. If it totally cleared the ram it would boot up with a certain reel setup and credit and bank would be erased.  Is that what happened.

    I've had it happen to me in an arcade in Ingoldmells, was a sit down Red Hot X Arena.  I'd just spun it out and was collecting my bank when it crashed, the guy paid me out and fiddled with the machine, when it booted back up it had 3 red XXX on the line.  Was a happy accident :)

  4. Yeah, I’ve decided to just get some semi decent pc components and build into a slim console type case that way I can have it run pretty much anything ;)

    Maybe my question could have been worded better as I think I’m after an all in one frontend fully loaded already with roms, no setup required.

    I do have Big Box license but I just don’t want to mess around configuring stuff.  I guess I want a plug and play pre configured install…. I don’t want Hyper Spin though, it’s just too bloated.

  5. I’ve seen laser disk roms but where might one get the video files?

    I have daphne, but would be nice to have them running under mame for sure ;)

    I remember Mad Dog McCree in my local arcade, ha ha early 90’s, would love to play some of those again ha ha!!

  6. Indeed, almost like they didn’t want people who knew what they were doing playing them.

    Like you said and it wasn’t even difficult to spot those settings.  Unless I’d been watching one progress I wouldn’t quite believe a max pot.

  7. I have a mame cab, but I’m looking for maybe a retro system with games covering arcade and earlier consoles, so MAME, SNES, Sega etc.  I’m looking for something already pre configured with roms and a nice front end and pre-built that can plug in to my TV so I don’t have to do a lot of configuring.  It needs to play all games well enough to enjoy, especially some of my favourite arcade games like Mortal Kombat etc.

    Does such a unit already exist?

    I have looked at the Pandora boxes but not sure what kind of boards/pc they are equipped with, need something more top end.

    Any ideas are appreciated ;)
